Why are four fave liberal actresses in a movie about MAGAt-ish Tom Brady-adoring football fans?

Poms II

Because mortgages and electric bills don’t have political affiliations.

Movies have really go downhill. This has a cheugy vibe.

I'm sure Field and Tomlin kept the notoriously nasty Moreno in check. They don't take no shit.

Which trailer park-raised homo was the wigmaster on this shitshow?

ANY of the 180 episodes of The Golden Girls >>>>>> this.

I can watch Jane Fonda and her exquisite cosmetic surgery all day. I cannot bear to look at whatever the helly Tomlin has done to herself. Moreno isn't much better. Looks like an alien wearing a mask.

Hopefully none of them croak soon with this crap as their final resume credit.

Grace and Frankie brought to you by Barstool Sports and the wigs of the second season of RuPaul’s Drag Race.

Holy shit - that looks atrocious.

and why is Jane looking even more ridiculous than usual?

“The story of four entitled boomers who show up at a sporting event and hassle frontline workers for discounted access despite not having purchased tickets. Featuring Jane Fonda’s contractually-mandated romantic subplot with a man twenty years younger than her! And co-starring Lily Tomlin’s gnarled hands and occasional attempt at a regional accent!”

Is that Charo?

r11 Sally Field is the only Boomer in that group

Wow! They couldn't find a single laugh to put in the trailer? I love these ladies, but yikes.

Jesus this looks fucking dreadful. Is this trying to be Bridesmaids for Grandmas or something? Just atrocious.

[quote] fave liberal actresses …movie… MAGAt-ish Tom Brady-adoring football…

Some of these words may make sense.

But I think you threw some others in which don't make sense.

And of course Billy fuckin Porter is in it

Movie looks like crap, but OP desperately needs to unclench.

I hate Tom Brady.

Do, elucidate your presumed grammatical superiority, oh wise R16.

R18 needs to un-live.

@ R3

cheugy = popular in middle school or high school but is no longer cool.

[quote]Because mortgages and electric bills don’t have political affiliations.

If you think any of those four is hurting for money, you're seriously deluded.

Well, when your assistant’s assistant’s desk is piled high with offers for you the poor assistant's assistant sometimes feel overwhelmed, so they appeal to your assistant for advice on how to handle the influx, at which time your assistant snatches up the script, frisbees it to you, and says, “You should do this,” so you do.

I reckon Fonda's going senile.

I hope she reveals what happened in Athens in 1963 before she enters Her Darkness.

What makes you say that, R24 re: senility? I know she’s old, but…

With their silver hair/wigs and super tight faces, I can't tell Jane Fonda and Rita Moreno apart anymore... ...and does Billy Porter sing in this thing?

I would watch this if it was on Netflix. Jane is as tight as a drum with her surgeries. It looks silly and fun, but not in a theater. Sally is the youngest one in that group.

Jane looks so "done." She really went too far with the surgery.

"Also starring Barbra Streisand as Gisele Bündchen and Liza Minnelli as Lady Gaga"

It honestly makes me sad that there's so little good material for women of this age. It's depressing. Seeing actresses over 60 being forced to do stuff like Poms, The Guilt Trip, Book Club, and this is depressing. They feel so cheesy and safe and bland.

I'd rather them bring back movies like Whatever Happened to Baby Jane? and Strait Jacket and give the old gals something fun to do.

R30, Ryan Murphy is annoying and his product quality varies but I give him credit for giving older (not quite this old, to your point) actresses fun stuff to do.

Maybe he’ll see the market for darker stuff with the real old gals and write some stuff for them.

That trailer was two minutes and 40 seconds of my life I will never get back.

Glenn as Jane and Meryl as Blanche would be amazing.

I would've brought some gravitas to this movie!

Poms is a gulity pleasure movie of mine. This looks a lot worse than Poms.

I can't tell Ernestine, Barbarella, Gidget, and Anita apart now—do they all have the same surgeon?

Title gore alert.

I love them all...but this looks dreadful.

I'm so sick of these movies about old women drooling over young men. It such a lazy plot device. It's ludicrous and it doesn't happen in real life. I'm a woman! I know these things.

Yeah, it looks fucking awful but I like all four of those broads, each in her own special way. Cash those checks girls. I may not want to actually go see it but I support old ladies getting work.

Shocked (shocked - I tell ya) Diane Keaton didn’t find her way to hitch onto this POS.

Sally F is the only one here who still looks human.

Was Candice Bergen not available? She actually had a reasonable supporting part in As They Made Us this year and had a few bitchy lines.

Is Rita Moreno considered a “white Latina”?

^ Watina

This looks absolutely dreadful. Jane and Sally deserve better.

Jane Fonda is ridiculous with her fake tits, Facelifts and bizarre wigs. Clown 🤡 show

Those old bitches need to stop the Gronk sex fantasies. That's reserved for the Datalounge!

So it's Lily Tomlin, Jane Fonda, Sally Field and Miss Coozeburger.

On Marc Maron's WTF podcast, Sally Struthers talked a whole ton of shit about what a cunt Rita Moreno was to her when they worked together. She didn't mention Moreno by name but it was obvious who she was talking about.

They send all of Jane's shots to Industrial Light and Magic before they put them back in the movie.

R48 she also talked about it in length on Gilbert Gottfried's podcast. She didn't name Moreno but it was obvious who she was talking about even if she called her Miss Coozeburger.

Grace and Frankie should have ended up together!!

Moreno was a real nasty piece of work, from the stories Sally Struthers told.

Didn't Sally only say one thing about Rita?

She talked at length about what a cunt Rita was.

I didn’t think I’d ever see Sally go the Poms route. Sad!

Fonda's got The Blixen Look.

I think the "Rita Moreno is a Cunt Troll" is my new favorite DL character.

Sally Struthers starts shit talking Rita Moreno and telling Marc Maron what a cunt she is @23:37.

Apparently, Gizelle is dating her judo instructor. He may have been with her and kids in Costa Rica. She acted like the victim and complained to the media about Tom not being around enough. But it looks like she had moved on anyway.

[quote]Jane looks so "done." She really went too far with the surgery.

Its the character,, she is an 80 year old that still thinks she's a sex bomb. It's make-up, the old tape and wire trick and has a different wig in every scene. Fonda hasn't had real work done in years. Only injectables , She regretted doing the surgery. She made fun of it in "Frankie & Grace too.

The OP brands these performers as "fave liberal actresses".

I consider them to be screen performers of varying ability. I have no idea how the OP can claim them to be "favourites" or "liberal".

R46 Right?

Sally Field has to pay for her son given his career is just saying bitchy things on Twitter.

What did Rita ever do to Struthers -- steal her snack purse?

Listen to the podcasts, dipshit R64.

R63 that’s true. He’s like a professional DLer.

But the husband was gay too. She must have known - but it’s not like a Fran Drescher situation where he was producing her show - so why stick around as long as she did?

[Quote] I didn’t think I’d ever see Sally go the Poms route. Sad!

she was on that path

Looking at Jane I'm beginning to think 'Death Becomes Her' may not have been entirely fictional.

[quote] The OP brands these performers as "fave liberal actresses". I consider them to be screen performers of varying ability. I have no idea how the OP can claim them to be "favourites" or "liberal".

That's because they are all liberal, R61, you teabag ninny. You clearly know nothing about these women, who each have been activists for various liberal causes for decades, Fonda in particular since the 1960s, and currently for climate action against fossil fuels.

And considering the number of Oscars, Tonys and other awards bestowed upon them, they're admired by millions. Sally Field is "a DataLounge fave" for her recent TV show, renamed on DL as "The Sally Field show."

But you wouldn't know about that, R61, because you're a dimwitted newbie Euro-trash snot.

You sound very angry, Leonard @ R69.

You're projecting, nobody R70. Telling off an idiot is fun, not "angry." R61 (You? Don't care) is a blithering idiot.

Ugh, mothercunt!

These old broads have five Oscars between them, and who knows how many Emmys and Golden Globes and such. And they’re also near death! Each credit could be their last!

Who says yes to shit like this? Candy Bergen and Mary Steenburgen and Mary Kay Place belong in a movie like this. They need the dough. But these four? A sports movie about a decrepit, cheating, jackass quarterback? Are they being blackmailed, or are they all too senile to know what they’re signing these days?

Will any of them flash their tits at Tom?

R73 A seasoned pro football player is used to looking down at the ground while he moves, so their flopsies would be right in his eyeline.

[quote]Who says yes to shit like this? Candy Bergen and Mary Steenburgen and Mary Kay Place belong in a movie like this. They need the dough.

Mary Steenbergen is married to Ted Danson, who's had more success on TV than just about anyone. She's not hurting for money. Candy was the only child of a wealthy entertainer and of course had her own long run on TV.

Candy was selling homemade purses as recently as a few years ago. Also, her father was an asshole, so there’s no guarantee her comfort was foremost on his mind when he finalized his will.

As for Mary, she might have an Oscar and be married to a successful actor, but low- and mid-tier movies have been her niche for the past 20 years.

Jane strains but shoots a ping pong ball out of her couch in a cloud of dust.

Is couch an elderly cooch?

That was cute. I’ll watch it.

Edgar Bergen was undoubtedly well-off, but he didn't have megabucks money like Bob Hope or Danny (💩 ) Thomas. Candace probably inherited a nice sum, but it wasn't a huge fortune and it's likely long gone by now.

These legendary actresses should follow Joan's lead and retire, already. Sock puppet versions of their former selves. Crypt keepers are depressing. For example, I stopped watching Shirley MacLaine a couple of films back. Sad and sobering.

In a recent Madonna thread I said Marlene Dietrich knew when it was time to close the door and go to bed, and the same applies here.

R76, Candice has her own money from Murphy Brown, her ex husband and plenty of it. She gave her daughter her fabulous place in NY and down-sized.

Candy married a very wealthy guy 20 some years ago. She's working because that's what actresses do.

I’m sure Candy B’s food bills are making a dent in her fortune.

Meh, she looks good for her age. Probably rightfully sick of decades of dieting.

Wow, that was PAINFUL. Especially Fonda with her Barbie-cheerleader wig...

Was Jane having chemo treatments while filming this movie?

A check is a check. No shame in thinking that way.

I don't think these ladies knew what they were making. At a 15 to 1 ratio, Jane, herself, would be 1,260 dog years old, by now.

I was trying to find out where in the hell Billy Porter came from -- seems like he's in every (bad) thing lately, so I checked wikipedia:

"Porter was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to William Ellis Porter and Cloerinda Jean Johnson Porter Ford.[1][8][9] His sister is Mary Martha E. Ford."

So, from a pretentious family?

Porter has it's own thread, but I agree^

porter

noun noun: porter; plural noun: porters

1. a person employed to carry luggage and other loads, especially in a railroad station, airport, or hotel.

You better hide that definition from Miss Billy, R92!

R92 I was just trying to be more like Billy Porter! Yeah, that's the ticket!

Do Brady or Gronk show dick? That would be the only reason I'd watch this.

If I were the one actress under 80 in this I’d be pissed.

I’m surprised they are pandering to the Republican NFL.

This looks craptastic!

It’s a pity G wasn’t cast. This is right up her alley.

R25 Fonda was saying something irrational to the media last week. Obviously lapsing into senility.

This looks like horror movie.

[quote] liberal actress

The actress is liberal in her stupidity.

Today is Miss Coozeburger's 112th birthday!

Happy birthday, Miss Coozeburger!!!!!

[quote] Porter has it's own thread

It is own thread?

Idiot.

A film like this - 80 for Brady/Produced by Tom and awfully shady/ Stick to your own kind/Produce your own kind

A film like this. With no Latina/Maura whitebread, No senorina/ Stick to your own kind/Produce your own kind

A film like this has no love/The script deserves an elbow shove/ But take the part/for cash not art/ very smart Moreno, very smart

A film like this is one thing only/a piece of shit to leave you lonely/ It murdered your love/ for my life story/ We had Sundance/ but no receipts/ and just TV.

A quick buck for the ol' broads. Not that they need it, but it's money. It's always money.

Has Toms son-wife been cast yet? Because I have a few associates that role would be perfect for.

This looks like it's going to be one of the worst films in history. Usually, a few of a film's best parts are included in the trailer, and if these are some of the film's best scenes, I don't want to imagine how atrociously dismal the duller and less engaging parts are going to be.

These women ought to have a little dignity and realize that it is always possible to destroy an artist's legacy. This embarrassing perpetration is a mistake and they ought to have enough experience (not to mention, common sense), to understand it.

Ew Guy Fieri is in it. No.

Why did they do it? To embarrass us, that's why.
