jennifer’s body made an entire generation of girls emo and gay, it’s a classic
cass scribner yesssss!
True lmaoo
Me, included
Proud gay Jennifer's body Stan here ✋
Catty Lynn very cool, congrats
This is 35 minutes of two women discussing their shared trauma.
well it needed to be spoken about.
And I love it
It really is, its so upsetting
Indeed.
I loved this interview between megan and diablo cody it,s not fair how hollywood treated megan as a object megan is a queen for me ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Feminists that don't want you in their "group" don't deserve to even call themselves feminists, Meghan. We, feminists, love you and respect you.
Absolu-frickin-loutely.
I second that
Yes I agree. At first, I was jealous of Meghan because my husband had a crush on her. After watching this movie, I saw another side of Meghan. She is funny, she can make me feel for the character "Jennifer", and can be down to earth. Because of the media... I only saw the "drunk" or "out of control" Meghan. The men that hurt Meghan didn't want the truth to come out just another negative story to distract or hurt her integrity. I like that Meghan talked about being a mother and how hard it is to be a mother in the industry/ get a minute to breast pump.
Amen 🙌
💯
My favorite quote ever is:
-You’re killing people...
-No, I’m killing boys.
Honestly our savior
👑👑👑👑👑👑
wat?
@@Hutchdh watch the movie.
What does that line have to do with her being a savior lmao
My favorite lines are “I am a god” “ok…”
jennifer’s body was way before it’s time honestly
I believe that too!
yes. If Jennifer's Body was released today, it would be a total hit
I agree it’s a classic
Strawberry Jam like the subject matter itself, the nostalgia of that specific early to late 2000's era that the movie captures is kinda what draws me to it. i see what u mean but i don't think it'd be the same if it was released today.
It really was. It is a brilliant piece of art, it's so clever and witty and sarcastic and fun! And it was very much a feminist film, in the true sense of the word (not the misogynistic interpretation of it), which may have been what bothered the menfolk so much that they couldn't stop hating on it.
THEY SHOULD RE-RELEASE THE MOVIE IN THEATERS DURING HALLOWEEN!!!!
Sonia Anastasia I wonder what the ticket sales would be today compared to 10 years ago. I bet it would make way more money. It’s a cult classic.
Truth!!! It's a totally different viewership then what original executives thought.
Wonder if they can do that? I would go watch it! 🖤
Sonia Anastasia Y E S
Yessss! And maybe in 3d or 4d.
"I haven't been given that type of freedom since"😭 this is so damn sad to me. These two women deserve so much better in the their careers. This movie was really ahead of it's time.
Right?! Diablo needs to write a new brilliant teen film. Juno and Jennifer's Body were both 2000s brilliance to the max
Ugh no it wasn't these stories literally are proofs of the problems are you ten
this is the first interview where megan wasn’t being interrupted the whole time n she seems honestly comfortable i love it!!
Facts. But mainly because its not an interview. Its just a conversation betweet two people that worked together and went through similar experiences
You could tell how degraded and dehumanized Megan felt having her talent and work reduced down to those 3 words. She's always deserved better.
Chloe E. Her face totally sunk and it made me so mad that she had to go through that.
That face hurt me
her face said it all
I genuinely feel sad for her. Anyone who bothers to listen to her for five minutes could tell she's perceptive and wary. She's a person with feelings who has been reduced to just her appearance on a daily basis, and that's made her have to toughen up to preserve her self-esteem and avoid further exploitation. She's kind of forced to be defensive or avoidant because of the superficiality of others.
Then she should have worked on her acting skills instead of her face. She's a bad actress, bro. You guys, she sexualized herself until she realized it didn't work out the way she hoped it would.
Megan Fox was hated because of pure jealousy. Point blank
and misogyny
Period
@Ms Rana Right. I like Megan I mean she's beautiful and she's successful, but it's a damn shame that one got her blacklisted from hollyweird.
I’m glad she was black listed from hollyweird. She actually lucked out from the trash.
Jealous of what?
If Jennifer's Body was released at this day and age, it would be a big hit. I think a lot of people will appreciate the movie deeper than what it was and can understand and dissect parts of the movie that caught their attention. A lot can appreciate way past "sexiness" and past the "teenage flick" and "supernatural elements" it had going on.
it had an awful script lol
@@gee2541 some of the humor was corny . And it wasn’t scary enough to be a memorable horror movie but it was the first in many ways in female horror and the story was original enough . It was more about jealousy and loyalty . Jennifer didn’t want anyone else to have needy and was too insecure and didn’t want needy to have anyone because she couldn’t comprehend why she who had it all, was worthless to everyone . It’s pretty feminist in regards to the script albeit corny
Hearing Megan say this is her favourite project she's ever done just makes me stan the craftsmanship that is Jennifer's Body even more.
I hope megan knows that the girls and the gays LOVE her
the girls and the gays are the actual audience for jennifers body ngl
Like genuinely have love for her
As a girl when I watched that movie, I genuinely found Jennifer extremely hot. lol
@@kaiara111 good, thats the exact audience it's for
Especially the gay girls :D
I wish they had been given more comfortable chairs for such an important conversation.
They just could have balanced on the sticks they have up their asses.
fr like give them fucking couches lmao
Ikr 🙄
Maybe so they could show the shrine in the back with the baphomet (satan) statue in the locker in the background.
im one minute in and all I could think was how uncomfortable I’d be sitting on a stool for more than 10 minutes lmao
"I don't feel like there is a space in the feminism for me, you know, though I consider myself a feminist. I feel like feminists don't want me to be a part of their group". That part breaks my heart.
I want her to be part of my group!!
Asked her age , it's weird ohhhh
Here's it's safe
It's because equality feminism sucks. There is absolutely a place for megan fox in radical feminism.
l love how comfortable Megan is with her son wearing dresses, l wish my mom was like that /:
I am your mom now :) and i bet ur dresses are very pretty
She is abusing the poor kid.
You people are CRAZY.
@@wwtory u are crazy
@@wwtory oh! the horror!!! boy wearing dress?!?!?!!,&;&? pray tell it’s not true !!!
@@wwtory Agree. )))
Jennifer's body is the Mean Girls of Horror Movies
ξ S L Δ λΛ Which is why I STILL can't believe it wasn't just as successful.
GardenOnTheMoon it was too ahead of its time but now it’s safe to say that it’s a cult classic
yes!
this movie was not well executed at all the writing was sub par yall only like it bc megan fox is hot
@@camila4918 well then... why don't you give an example why the movie was not well executed and written.
Megan fox in American horror story.... I would die 💀
Austin James why?
YESSSSSS!!
OMG THAT WOULD BE PERFECT
YES WTF!!!!!!!!!
OMG THAT WOULD BE AMAZING WHERE CAN I SIGN THE PETITION
jennifer's body is literally my favorite movie,,, i watch it like once a week
omg too i watch it literally everyday i’m so obsessed with that movie and it’s gonna be my favorite movie forever till i die
She really was mistreated , misunderstood and objectified so much that it actually traumatized her , she needs a comeback role in a big movie , tbh I miss her acting because when she’s in her element , like in Jennifer’s body , she is amazing
Jennifer's Body aged really well
Maximus Prime sighhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Movie's terrible. But I love it
Touché
@Maximus Prime then why it's so present on 2019 among girls that are being objectify since forever for being "hot". Why the movie is a way to get with reality for "hot girls" in 2019?
I constantly see this movie being quoted by Gen z and people in their 20's . And I think that have major impact
It was low buget marketed for young men. But just like neon demon movie Jennifer so body was meant to be for younger generations that have another view on what beauty meant for them. Gen z see beauty as an asset without guilt like every last generation.
Go watch director interview about neon demon to learn more about gen z and the difference between past generations because they use that data in marketing
conexos2007 haha this is like magic. First and foremost you completely missed the joke. Secondly, the person you’re replying to also missed the joke. Achievement!
Megan's face when Diablo said "Megan Fox hot" was painful to watch.
i thought she was gonna cry 😔
Time stamp?
Which Minute?
go watch the whole interview!
7:48
I was 16 and in high school when this movie came out. I was instantly obsessed. So obsessed that I would paint my nails just like Jennifer. Hot pink with the middle finger being painted black. I felt so empowered after watching it. It helped give me confidence and basically not let “boys” walk on me. Everyone else around me just didn’t get it. 10 years later I am so proud that it’s getting the respect and recognition it’s getting. Been a JB fan since day one🖤
I was 10 and I have the same experience haha
Megan needs to start a podcast. I could listen to this woman swear her way through stories of the industry, the patriarchy and trauma for hours.
Its cute the way she swears! The way real people do!
She deserved a career like Jennifer Lawrence.
You're delusional. She's an awful actress, and Jennifer Lawrence isn't any better.
Jody Williams obviously you’re better than them
I am with you L L
@@jodycwilliams Jennifer was great in Winter's Bone and American Hustle
Facts!
jennifer’s body is so ahead of time now people like it so much
Abby Dadoll
I loved it when I first seen it theaters
I was obsessed when I saw it in theaters
Yup!
It's now considered a cult classic
Idk about ahead of it's time. I remember when it came out and I enjoyed it. It came out at right time. That's how it was suppose to happen.
Nah am pretty sure i liked it when it was released
“If I had a friend who ate dumbass men for sustenance I would be okay with that like okay we can work like that”
The look of horror on Diablo’s face when Megan is talking about people hating her & abusing her
Real feminist ally right there.
"I don't feel like there's a space in feminism for me"
That absolutely broke my heart.
hey
Michelle Dominique this is exactly why people do not take feminism seriously. Meghan has always considered herself a “tomboy” and after these interviews I can certainly see why
She said something really deep, even when She assumes herself as feminist, She has felt like misfit there......
Ana Luisa Yeah because women probably treated her worst of all as she came up. Can you imagine the jealousy from other actresses etc? “I’m trying SOOO hard and SHE just gets parts because she’s hot!” SMDH. The thing people never realize, as beautiful as she is, there are millions of girls as beautiful... you know why they’re not all famous? Because maybe they have no talent. Or no personality. Or maybe they’re good at math lol. But you see my point. It isn’t just bc she’s gorgeous. It’s because she’s gorgeous and special.
@@speeeee35 yeah I got that, the fact is She's so much more than her physics. But not all feminist are like this, I hope She finds a groyp of people who accept her besides her family, people need friends
Megan Fox deserves an apology. She deserves acknowledgement and a superhero role in the MCU.
A MCU role is not a universal remedy imo. Marvel fans can be the most entitled douchebags when something doesn't go their way. Remember what happened to Brie Larson, or Natalie Portman as soon as her casting as Thor was announced, or how they sexualised Scarlet before Winter Soldier. Women in the MCU only now get a more respectful treatment but they are still a long way off being equal to the boys.
2nd3rd1st brie got the brunt of it. crazy to see how women are treated for being successful
@Felton Hicks I think it had more to do with her not being a fake people pleaser. People have always loved beautiful people, but Megan has never been "relatable" and she shouldn't have to be. She's a strong woman.
she deserves better than that! real acting roles with meat and substance. her acting skills are very underrated and she 100% could tackle real dramatic roles.
Omg yes
I’m 17 and I’d always assumed this movie was an instant classic - I had no idea that there was such a fiasco with the marketing and image of it. It’s crazy unfair that this movie didn’t do well originally. I guess it was just ahead of its time.
NEVER saw the film as a failure.
Jennifer's Body is ICONIC!
At the time it was released it was a tremendous failure
Skilled Magician I think we watched the same interview...thank u captain duh lol
@@ianhartdige lmao
It was a failure for critics but I liked the movie.
the critics clearly have no taste
We owe Diablo an apology too man she wrote a movie that linguistically feels just as relevant if not more 10 YEARS LATER
Jarin I was thinking just that. Diablo had to tone down who she was (her past work used against her integrity ?) and you can tell throughout the interview how it changed her. We can’t say if for good or bad because humans are more complex than that. But agreed, an apology is good to start.
I agree! I feel so bad for her and the emotional trauma it caused her afterwards.
"You delivered like Domino's, baby". Even when talking about her favorite quotes from the movie, Diablo Cody made another great quote. YOU CAN'T STOP THIS WOMAN!
I was thinking this too XD she's so witty
megan is so genuinely smart and well-spoken, this is such an amazing discussion
It's so depressing that this movie flopped but it's not surprising. Guys went to watch this movie for gratuitous tiddies and hair flips but instead they got something that shat all over their misogynistic behaviour, those negative reviews were a whole bunch of bruised egos. But fuck it I'm so glad we get a video like this where it can be discussed candidly and praised for what it was, an incredible movie that was sadly too progressive for it's time
Well said sister! 👏👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️❤️
AMEN!!
Men are wired to like beauty and fertility. Nature is not misogynistic. Its just not fair for none attractive women.
@@Nelcomarproductions 🖕🏻😊🥰
@@Nelcomarproductions “not attractive women” can live “fair” and happy lives. It’s not just men
I truly hopes she makes a big comeback in film. She deserves so much more than what she has been given.
Alex maybe not in a film... they are just gonna use her . I want to see her starting her own business or direct her own film
She just has to find other non dickheads to work with..
Diablo? I would love to see what she would write next
I wonder how Christopher Nolan would use her... I believe if Nolan wanted he could bring out something really special out of Megan... Like in an action film or even an action trilogy starring Megan Fox... I'd watch... But, i really want Megan to play POISON IVY in the DCEU... I can't think of a better actress for the role...
I want her to be on american horror story
You can really see the tears in her eyes and hear the pain when Megan says that she feels that feminists make her feel like they don't want her to be a part of their group. There are groups within feminism that act super elitist and hypocritical. I've seen it many times. They're not interested in defending all women, only the ones that hold the same beliefs as them. I've seen a lot of hatred spewed in online feminist groups. It's really unfortunate, and honestly just adds more harm. Megan deserved better when she was struggling.
What's worse is in some cases, it is not even about being puritanical about beliefs, but a lack of acceptance that someone may be a feminist and hold the same or very similar values to you, but just look different... Ironically, and hypocritcally, this brand of feminism becomes just as shallow as what it is trying to condemn
God, Megan is still so young, I really hope her career gets a revival it deserves
It’s already happening :)
Are you talking about her age or looks or both? She's amazing regardless.
It won't, because she doesn't make the best choices & unfortunately in Hollywood that shit doesn't fly when you're a woman.
I’d pay for Megan to create a TH-cam channel where she shares wisdom and advice and her favorite teas...I can listen to her talk forever. She’s so insightful and still so beautiful.
Then you can ask her how she and her husband could discard her stepson, not let him know where they live but only be seen with him on occasion in public events for about ten years, not pay any child support, and not ever had him meet his youngest brother.
@@EMunaBee where did u know about this all information lol ??
@@effyblack5855 I found out a few years ago from the son and his real family and extended friend family who take care of him and who he takes care of. He's a really great guy, so it's not something he did. The Fox-Greens went in for full custody like ten years ago, didn't get it and pretty much dropped him without any normal explanation - on the plus side, he has a father figure in his life, but he was still pretty much discarded by his biological father and stepmother who used to really seem to connect with him and love him. It's all confusing and sad.
SAME
Emuna Bee get outta here rat
"What is feminism? What is supporting other females if there's only certain women you support? If I have to be an academic or non-threatening to you in some way... why do I have to be dismissed?" YES preach Megan.
I can understand that certain women probably should be dismissed from being a part of feminism for a multitude of justifiable reasons, but you shouldn't deliberately call attention to those people or demean them, because then it's an example of using feminism as a weapon rather than a tool. And Megan wasn't included because of the slut shaming side of feminism as well as the side that says that you have to be perfect all the time, two sides that are not justifiable in the slightest.
L7 Weenie exactly! Feminism should be about respecting all women, even women who are not tomboys or academics and who are feminine or have been oversexualized. Then again, there are different branches of feminism and there are a few who are starting to support her. She's talking about a specific, vocal branch.
When she said this is literally screamed YES 😫👌🏼
@@rsfilmdiscussionchannel4168 there is a perfectly valid feminist criticism of women who capitalise on sexualisation and objectification of women, as Megan Fox did. But it wasn't feminists who hounded Megan, it was tabloids and celebrity blogs just as she points out.
@@redfoxonstilts Yeah, you're right, I don't entirely stand by what I said.
I don’t think it’s easy to talk about a project you worked so hard on, and to admit the extreme level of disappointment felt when hearing that it wasn’t well received. I appreciate the honesty in this discussion from you both! And yes; I would put it at the level of cult classic!
Diablo Cody sat there pretending that she genuinely believes her movie was mis marketed to "frat boys" who want to see more boobs, while previously stating she very deliberately cast Megan Fox. First of all, that's probably a very large audience for horror movies in general, then u add Megan to it & that's OBVIOUS to a 5 year old that those "frat boys" r the majority of her audience. She's either trying to pretend that she doesn't/didnt realize that, or even worse, she not only realized it but was banking on that to make her movie a huge box office hit. The fact u can observe her intellect in this video, mixed with everything else tells me this woman is dishonest. & a huge part of the inequality problem between men & women in Hollywood! It was simply a bad movie, & very few people enjoyed anything about the actual movie as a whole. To pretend that u made an incredible masterpiece that is just underappreciated because it was mis marketed is what gives men a reason to under value woman! Because only any IDIOT wouldn't realize who the audience is going to be for a horror movie starring Megan Fox, & to pretend she doesn't know or that it wasn't actually a strategic move on her part makes her a LIAR. & of course men r gonna look down on "idiots" & "liars," therefore look down on woman! Please be a better example for woman in Hollywood, & just woman in general!!!
7:49 Her face here broke my heart 💔
She’s so smart and well articulated. Hollywood really downplayed her in every sense of the word.
They don't understand what it's like to be her
It’s honestly exactly like Marylin Monroe. A big part of what started to drive her nuts in the end was proving she was a good actress (and she actually was).... She started going to acting schools and hardcore serious acting classes.... with like regular people who were hoping to get to her position!!!!
I used to wonder why Megan kind of disappeared at like seriously around 25.. but I get it. They’d have been terrible to her if she continued and just rode out the “sexpot” thing bc the SECOND she had one wrinkle or looked a little different from surgery or whatever theyd be like “FOX NO LONGER HAS ANYTHING TO OFFER!”
It’s weird- it’s almost like there’s a cutoff for being beautiful. Up to a point, it makes your life easy and you get whatever you want.... but past a certain point.... everyone is jealous of how beautiful you are so they literally won’t ALLOW you to have anything else. It’s like past a certain point people refuse to take you seriously.
i was literally typing “she’s so articulate and well spoken she deserved better” then i saw ur comment omg
Drats Smithsonian marilyn didn’t ‘go nuts’ because of media, she had a severe mental illness
Magen Fox is gorgeous
Hollywood didn’t like her because she didn’t fit the ‘pretty’ archetype, she actually has her own brain.
Hollywood - A woman can't be attractive and have her own identity.
Megan - Hi.
Hollywood - I'm about to destroy her whole career.
The thing is all women in Hollywood are extremely smart! The thing is Megan was vocal! She refused to be sexually harassed and pigeonholed! So many women in Hollywood feel like they have to suck it up, and the men are dangerous and powerful! So many women want to maintain success and keep quiet because of the environment that has been created around the industry
@@smthngtosay exactly, its not that women in hollywood are dumb, but its such a competitive field with mostly men in power. its hard to speak up, Megan was blacklisted by so many people because of Michael Bay
I'm actually blown away by how smart & strong Megan is! I dislike and lose respect more and more for Hollywood!
Nope, she was just a bad actress. I mean smart women are actresses. Like Angelina Jolie, ann Hathaway, etc.
I LOVED this discussion and also appreciate how open they both were on a personal and professional level!! I was a fan of Jennifer’s Body from the start but as an adult I understand it even more now. Everything they’ve talked about is something everyone especially women can resonate with. I just cannot wait for Megan to keep on starting to enjoy her stardom more and more. It’s women like this that we need to be voicing their opinions publicly!!
I just want to give these women a hug…I’m tearing up just listening to how they feel, and how they’ve essentially been bullied in their lives/careers without any merit. To feel like you don’t have a place in feminism is a downright shame. Shame on those feminists who choose to beat down on other women and exclude them just because they’re not the typical stereotype of a feminist.
I hope they both create more and more films. Jennifer’s body has so much symbolism and I still watch it from time to time on Halloween. Really great interview too, love hearing them speak so openly and genuinely.
Breaks my heart that Megan feels there’s no space for her in feminism.
Mine too I love her.
@@Reminiscent1990 you are free to love whoever you want, feminism is about equality between the sexes.
It’s because she’s a gorgeous woman with strong opinions and people are jealous it doesn’t surprise me it happened to me too and I tried to ugly myself down again
A lot of girls hate pretty girls and assume life is automatically easy for them. It is sad.
@Sierra Miles I’m pretty sure womanism is only for black woman 🤷🏾♀️
Megan Fox has an incredible amount of depth to her beyond her looks..Its sad that she's just a hot girl to the industry.
@Maximus Prime indeed I don't understand Why people are making her the victim, she wanted fame clearly.
Maximus Prime She chose to be an actor, she didn’t choose to be bullied and treated like an object by the industry and the public.
@Maximus Prime did she choose her path or was her path chosen for her. It's widely known that actors are put into boxes and it is really difficult to change your box. She chose to have a career, she didn't choose the roles that were available to her.
@@cybramir omg I love you Angel
@@raaid22 so true! valid point
Two smart women that are understanding of one another have a honest talk. Really interesting to hear the perspective of Brook on the pressure and toxic vibes of the industry as well as the honesty of Megan about her experiencing these feelings and her being sexualized. Glad they survived all of it and are doing well now 💫
Megan is so well spoken omg i feel calm listening to her
whomever works at ET and saw the opportunity to take advantage of interviewing these two over this film is a genius. With the ME TOO movement and women equality on a rise, this project is sort of perfect for this.
Agreed
YES. THIS!!!
True
Right!
Just found out Jennifer's Body wasn't a banger 10 years ago wtf.
It was, a banger just not with who they marketed the film to. I remember the promotional trailers and posters, my mum wouldn’t let me go because she thought it would be a soft porn, I guess you could compare to 50 shades of grey so my older friend hustled me in. My friend and I were Amanda and Megan fans which is why we went, we raved about the movie for weeks afterwards and weren’t disappointed at the theatre but the blokes who went expecting transformers or soft porn or whatever walked out on the movie.
I saw this when it came out I was 11 I understood it was a great movie I can't believe others didn't.
It def was for me!
Lol sadly yeah.. I was 13 and loved it and my sister who was 11 at the time as well lol and to see it 10 years later being loved,reallt makes me happy. It was a great horror movie
I thought it was with all the trailers they had out
This is one of my favorite conversations ever. Megan needs a podcast.
Megan Fox has tears in her eyes several times. We need to treat woman so much better. The "ugly" ones are deemed to have no value and the "pretty" ones are only valued for that and taken even less seriously.
Fox is also part native American, another group that needs to be taken more seriously. Much respect for these women standing up for themselves.
Sad but true
If jennifers body became a tv series i would pay a million dollars to watch it
This needs be a thing!! @netflix where you at?
I will contribute to this crowdfunding.
Megan Fox has a show that's on right now. It's a history/travel show called, "Legends of the Lost." It's really good!
I'm all for a Jennifer's Body series if they could convince Megan to be on it!!!!😁
Seconded
“Megan Fox Hot” the fact they couldn’t even be bothered to include “is”, really just speaks volumes of how little they thought of her 💔😢
Exactly, and I feel sorry for the screenwriter as well for them completely dismissing her work just so they could objectify a woman in order to satisfy the horny male audience. They both deserved so much more.
Megan fox hot seriously?! Why not megan fox intelligent, very bright, brave ,amazing whoever wrote that is a showinistical bastard !!!😠😠😠 Respect to megan the queen fox♥️♥️♥️♥️
I keep coming back to this whenever I need to relax and feel joy. It's not just about how satisfying it feels to see this movie being rediscovered, revalued and appreciated now, achieving cult status only 10 years after its release, but it's also about how awesome, intelligent and ahead of their time these 2 women are. It's a genuine pleasure to see them just chatting and revealing their deeply human and bright side that the mainstream failed to recognize. This movie is my ultimate comfort movie... It manages to be unpretentiously smart and complex while also being pure popcorn fun. I just can't get enough of it
I can picture her really well in a psychological role and alongside Keanu Reeves for some reason.
I hope we get to see back on our screens soon ✌️✌️✌️
That would be soooooo cool
yes please
"I don't think anyone could've done it but me." DAMN RIGHT
Charlotte same
I personally think they treated Megan like shit because she is one of the most beautiful women alive and people hate beautiful women when they're not sexualizing them. Especially other females who view beauty as a social currency.
its not just other women who view beauty as a social currency its society as a whole lol. people have set up a system where they treat physically attractive women so much better and we all know it.
It had more to do with what she said about Michael Bay and how he made her look after she compared him to Hitler. She should have told her story about him during the me-too movement if anyone deserved to be taken down it was him. She didnt deserve the negative backlash that she got after transformers.
@@suckkmycandles no, i know that. but i was referring to the part where she said other women, and "feminists", treated her like garbage when she spoke out about what happened to her. and i disagree. in some ways they are, but in a lot of ways they simply aren't. it's a win/lose situation.
sorry but she made millions because she fucking hot
@@ITzDECORT she's been blackballed by the industry for the last 10 years. just because she had one relatively large pay day doesn't make up for that. dont be daft
I remember LOVING this movie when it came out, I made sure to see it in theatres because I liked the cast and how unique it seemed and Diablo's work. I remember hearing that it didn't do well, and being surprised...like...why? So I'm glad that it's gaining steam and a larger fanbase now, it deserves it, and I still love it.
I’m so very impressed with their conversation; each of them taking their time to express what they have to say, and both listening intently to the other ❤️
Honestly, this comments section is so wonderfully positive.
Yep :))
Yeah thank god it’s not megan looks old or Megan looks good for her age
this was so heartbreaking. its hard listening to what the both of them had to go thru. I see things on twitter all the time about how megan deserved better and how she was treated and blackballed in Hollywood for not taking shit but I never understood the extent. I hope she knows that we love her so much. also she has the coolest kid in the world.
How? She wasn't forced to do anything ever. She should just admit she was desperate for fame.
@@tekgid433 um it was literally the opposite. if she was soo desperate for fame she could've easily just been the person they wanted her to be sooo bad, and let what happened to her go without attempting to speak out.
I saw Jennifer’s body when I came out and I have always loved it since. I never understood why it was so hated but now that I’m older I do. This was a great conversation. I value Megan’s vulnerability and honesty
What a genuine interview. Props to Megan and Brook for being so open and honest. It takes a lot of courage to open up like this. This was very inspiring to watch. Thank you guys. 🙏
“Juno” and “Jennifer’s Body”...two of the greats that most definitely fall into the “cult classic” category!
The fact that Megan feels there’s no room in feminism for her is tragic. If you don’t support Megan as much as you support the stereotype of the academically inclined, glasses-wearing girl writing a think piece about whatever pissed me off that day, then straight up you’re not a feminist.
I agree
each have their own shortcomings: pretty ones are objectified and not conventionally pretty are ignored
both are not taken as seriously as men. So yeah i agree.
So sad, really. Feminism has so much room for women like Megan but the problem is that the word gets hijacked by people who want the credibility but don't want to put in any of the work to truly understand it and understand the theory... which would clearly include _all_ women. Intersectional feminism - sex-positive feminism... it's not just a hashtag that started on Tumblr. People don't get it. There is LOADS of room for women like Diablo Cody and Megan Fox - in fact there is a void in it that very much needs them and their voices.
damn, that's true, thank you .
I agree! Feminism is for ALL WOMEN! And if women decide to turn another woman away because she is seemingly gorgeous and “perfect”, then they are not real feminists! We are all in this together!
Perez Hilton was such a monster. I remember those days.
Oh massively. Karma will get to him. I’m surprised certain celebrities didn’t commit suicide because of his posts about them. He was the biggest bully of the 90s.
Ironically, he went on Ellen a few years ago to promote his “anti-bullying campaign”. The lack of self-awareness blew my mind.
He wanted Britney dead. I will never forgive that man.
Megan honestly seems like such an amazing mam. I absolutely love how much admiration she show's for her child's interests and expression and how much she seems to support, nurture and encourage them 💛
this movie aged well. this is the exact type of humor thats popular nowadays. if this movie wouldve been made this year, it would be a huge hit. its still one of my all time favorite movies. i owe it a lot.
"the only difference between a flower and a weed is a judgment " awww
Ikr? 💜 at first I was like, "But scientifically weeds are not flowers" then I realized that I'm bad at science so I made a little research and vôila: there are really weeds that are also flowers!
Such a genius reference
@@thebinlgbtisbabadook7832 the real reason weeds are weeds if you wanna get technical is actually because they "grow like weeds" they grow over the roots and block other plantlife from being able to grow effectively completely taking over the landscape... so really weeds are like the colonizers that came to America and spread disease and war killing off a massive amount of the native population. It's still a sweet metaphor though if you don't take it literally
@@Roblox-jb2vf that’s an invasive species. “Weeds” that aren’t invasive that grow like weeds are just the native plant life growing where someone decided it shouldn’t.
Megan Fox was done so wrong as her career was taking off. Hollywood crushed her when she put up any resistance to not doing what she was told. Hope she has a true career resurgence soon.
I'm so sad that that movie had left such a horrible scar for the both of them... I love Megan, and I've always wondered why she sorta just disappeared ... now I know... so sad... I'm glad they're both in a much better place and stronger now!
She’s so strong honestly, she’s been dragged through sooo much shit and she’s come out so much stronger and wiser. She’s truly an icon and someone to look up to. Diablo is amazing herself. Two real feminists
Yeah, she hates men so much she made her son wear a dress to school. Smh
SMAKS EM SILLIFIED lmao... “made” ?? Noah chooses to wear what he wears. She only supports it. Hate men? She said she’d rather have sons than daughters because daughters seem harder to raise. Try again;)
@@flungoutofspace8469 6 year olds don't choose this junk and you know it. Or perhaps you have never raised a 6 year old. This kid more or less begged his mom to stop pushing it on him and she responded by telling him to get stronger.
she's a nut case, and so is anyone else that does this to a small child.
Jody Williams LOL. “Don’t choose” - I’m a female who chose to wear “boy” clothes occasionally when I was his age and younger. I have several cousins who prefer “girl” toys or “girl” clothing over other things. You make no sense.. seriously.
Flungoutofspace amongst those of us without major mental health issues, I make perfect sense, and people like her are child abusers.
the film's demographic consists of teenage girls and gays who, like megan, have a general dislike and distrust for men, and have a general love for lipgloss and gore. if they actually make a tv series spin-off of jennifer's body, i hope to the demons of hell that alexa demie is casted as jennifer.
This gave me chills... PLEASE CAST ALEXA
This. So spot on. And a massive fuck yes to Alexa.
i love this so fucking much wow
Omg ALEXA WOULD BE PERFECT
hell yess
I was absolutely too young to watch Jennifer's Body when I did in 2009 but I watched it religiously when it would show on TV. I still adore it to this day. (I'm typing this in my "Justice For Jennifer's Body" sweatshirt and Jenn's BFF necklace with my velour heart hoodie nearby. haha)
This is one of my favorite videos on the internet... The way they are so honest about their experiences is so comforting
Megan did not deserve all that harassment my heart is breakingggg
Vanessa M Same
My boner just went down...Youre so right.😢
Titan29V No one cares about your erectile dysfunction.
I feel like Jennifer's Body actually paved the way for more horror films exploring womens' trauma, like Us, Midsommar and The Witch - which have been more well-received.
I agree. It was before its time, but it helped bring that time about, and Megan Fox was I think NECESSARY to help it get enough attention to be influential.
Yeah don't forget ginger snaps I'm pretty diablo took some of that movie and ran with it
Interestingly, all those movies were written and directed by men. I’m not saying that’s the only reason why they were successful, but still
Crow Ginger Snaps was amazing
The movie TEETH as well
I was a emo 9th grade femme when this movie was made and I couldn’t go see it in theaters because it was rated R. I always felt like I was the ideal demographic and I wasn’t able to go see it in theaters. That’s why it financially bombed in my eyes. It’s a really good movie and deserves all the love it’s getting
i love this interview! i always come back and rewatch it
I really need a Megan Fox Renaissance NOW!
A Meganaissance!
A Meganaissance ? 😁 You're welcome.
Damn it I did see the guy above me... shit.
YESSSSS
Fuck yessssss We need to see more of her amazing work!!
I like how everyone judged Megan then thinking she was a viper and deserved hate when in reality she's a magical human being and is considerably sensitive. Very intuitive and empathic.
They both deserve a huge apology and SO MUCH credit and support.
This is the best interview I have ever seen from ET . I hope you keep with this formula because it's so insightful in a way women haven't been able to have the opportunity to display.
It’s kinda fun to see two empaths sit and talk.
Hit the nail on the head right here.
Divine Feminine on Entertainment Tonight is literal proof we are in the Golden Age
What does that mean? Genuine question
LusiFr Empaths are people who are generally though as over sensitive, however they are people who feel, not only their own emotions but other as well- extremely deeply. That is just a glossed over definition of empaths. Here in this setting, both women have so much pain inflicted by our media culture onto them, they are sharing and actually talking about it. Not only are they speaking up about their pain, but they are talking about the how that pain affects others and people close to them-and understanding how and why it affects other people.
Y R what do you mean?
I want more interviews like this one. Women speaking about the entertainment industry in an honest way. Loved it.
If these two had a podcast I’d hella listen. This might be one of my favorite movie reflections of all time. I will rewatch this forever.
The beautiful vibe between these two just interviewing each other very candidly is just incredible
I can definitely see Megan Fox playing a villain with Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn being bffs
Jack FelixnAtlas Megan fox as ivy 😱yes please ...I probably was not old enough to see Jennifer’s Body when I saw it but it made me feel powerful in middle school being an insecure 👧.
I think she should be hunterss
Sherene Madramootoo she would make a perfect poison Ivy, catwoman, or the cheetah(Barbra Minerva)
She is my poison ivy
Poision Ivy😍😍
We really need a book by Megan. She is so well spoken and intelligent. I bet she has a lot to say.
Yes! Aside from her incredible personal story, she’s also incredibly well educated about different philosophies and spiritual beliefs. I’d honestly love to hear her thoughts on all that and then some.
I want her to start a podcast or youtube channel or something, she's so cool and intelligent. Literal icon 🥺
Not that she has anything to prove but I’d love for her get a degree
Are you being ironic??
@@sailorgillan LMFAO😂😂😂😂
I’m loving this interview. I just wanted to share how much I loved this movie when I was a teenager, I wasn’t aware of the controversy, not even until these days, but I remember thinking how fresh, amazing and feminist it was. Now I really need to re-watch it.
What an amazing conversation! Thank you!!!
It’s so weird bc weve all been made aware of the societal advantages of pretty privilege, but Megan shows that it can work against you too.
it definitely can.
The worst thing is people aren't even ready to accept that there could be negative repercussions to being pretty. Like okay if you don't understand but how about you try to listen??
Women are allowed to be pretty or intelligent but not both. Society still refuses to see us as multifaceted beings so instead hyperfixates on our most obvious trait to the detriment of all others.
@@froglodyte this 👏
it’s a part of misogyny for sure
The only difference between a flower and a weed is a judgement wow
Ikr she really hit us with that
True.
Love this interview. I hope there is a Jennifer’s Body limited series. That would be amazing!
My fav quote has got to be “boys are just place holders,they come and they go”
The whole entertainment industry should say sorry to Megan Fox
I agree
Yep.
