The Photoshop Awards: The Kennedys Poster

More like Jackie Ohwhatdidtheydotoyourface. The words on the poster says this is Katie Holmes, Greg Kinnear, Barry Pepper and Tom Wilkinson, but if you told me this was a DIY Mona Lisa, JFK (Greg Kinnear really does look like JFK here), a second-tier Roger Maris impersonator and the late Tom Bosley, I'd believe you!

I mean, if you sat in a Scientology sauna until a dozen L. Ron Hubbards and Xenus waltzed before your very eyes and somebody showed you this poster, it still wouldn't look like Stepford Katie. She looks like a Jackie O wax figure made with birthday candles and black marbles that was...well.....that was left in the Scientology sauna for too long.

Funny you should mention Scientologists, because remember what film Barry Pepper starred in? Battlefield Earth. Who knew he was still in good standing with the cult even after that steaming turd. Not that the fault was his, at least, not entirely: John Travolta carries at least 70% of the blame for BE and he's still invited for the Scientology Celebrity Center Annual Sauna-o-rama every year.

I saw pictures of Katie while they were filming where she looked more like Jackie O. than she does on that poster.

I can just imagine all the heavy sex scenes that will be in this movie being that the Kennedy men were such whores.

Poor Katiebot can't act her way out of a paperbag. She really should bake tommygirl a big pink cake for blowing the producers of this to get her the part.

astriastar's picture

It looks like the Photoshop guy was a little heavy-handed with the "prostitution whorah" tool... She looks like Danielle Staub.

scisan60's picture

There are no decent young actresses today so I guess they chose KH based on how much TommyGirl paid the studio to put her in...but Good Lord...she is terrible...I mean Jackie O is not a tough part but it does require charisma and mystery....both traits are suited for TommyGirl but not StepMom.

How bout Teddy Roosevelt? He had a big dramatic life both in and out of the Oval Office, and he even has the underdog quality because he was sickly as a kid.

This is why when I watch TV, I end up watching Forensic Files and "When Animals Attack". This miniseries looks stupid and boring.

So, if Katie Holmes' grandma gear didn't age her enough, she can also thank Photoshop because here she looks about 20 years her senior.

She used to be stylish. The marriage sucked all of the youth out of her.

You know who did the best JFK ever? Patrick Dempsey is "JFK: Reckless Youth." I have it on dvd, and since he's from Maine, he had the Bahston accent down pat.

My god, I despise this fat freak with the motor skills of a hooved animal. ~~ eat.pray.vomit

I think I would rather attend a vomit festival then to see this movie. And really, haven't the Kennedys been done enough?

Hockey fan's picture

The casting is...interesting. TW as Joe-- got that. Good choice. GK as JFK? I'll reserve judgment. BP as Bobby? Ummm...no. The look is all wrong. KBot as Jackie? all kinds of HELL NAWL. When will Hollywood realize that she sucks as an actress? Wonder how much Tommy girl paid the producers to give her that role.

She looks nothing like Jackie. "Kate" looks like herself, but with a harelip and walleyes, one of which is glass. Scientology will do that to ya.

I think Katie can pull of that weird montone voice of Jackie O's. A little extra xanax barley water will smooth it perfectly. Kinnear is a pretty good actor.

It's weird, because in the photos of Katie on set, she is passable, but they've Photoshopped her to the point of looking like ET's grandmama here.

I don't like the idea of Katie as Jackie, but everyone else is a good choice. Good actors.

How many times and how many different ways are they going to make movies about this corrupt family? Jesus Christ let it go already. Is there any other presidential family they can make a movie about?

Barry Pepper is one hot mofo.

So is Greg Kinnear. I would totally allow back episodes of Talk Soup play on TV while and we make out on a bed of red rose petals.

Eh, I'll watch it. It'll be better than what is on tv these days. Reality, reality and more reality. At least I can make fun of the people in it, like I did when Armand Assante and Jaqueline Bisset were in that Napoleon mini-series years ago. I was a kid, but I remember my mom and grandmother screaming at the tv after Napoleon lit a fire with a Bic lighter and then said " I gotta go!" Even as a stupid child I remember thinking, "I don't think this is what really went on"

They photoshopped her eyes up tooooo big. Oh fuck, I don't care.... I won't be watching anywaze.

I have always thought Kinnear was really cute and he does look like JFK. Katie is fine as Jackie, actually they are alot alike, meaning they are both attractive but at the same time very ordinary. They even have the same little tiny teeth.

Katie does have GIANT ankles and I don't think she is a good enough actress to pull of the arrogance of Jackie O

.....and here's another movie/mini series I won't watch....

Enough with the movies about this family. They are a bunch of corrupt, drunk whores in politics who get away with murder.

Daniee's picture

I do enjoy these lengthy mini-series and I adore Wilkinson so have hopes for this particular one. I am hoping Katie can pull it off, seems like a challenging pursuit if anything.
I don't care if she looks EXACTLY like Jackie or not.

Jaclyn Smith and Jacqueline Bisset are the only 2 people I have seen pull off all the Jackie mannerisms and voice successfully...even though both are far more beautiful than the real Jackie ever was. I am curious to see what Katie will do.

It's just a miniseries for History Channel. They are just trying to sell it like a real movie event. That's all.
