Members Cheap21 Posted July 17, 2011 Members Share Posted July 17, 2011 Yes! Sure GV Lucky was a whipping boy but I like how he stood up to Jason and was against the mob. I cringe watching Lucky not work along side Jason and kiss his ass. I found GV to be alot more sympathetic, relatable and likeable in the role bc the writing wasnt always telling us how great he was and all the hardhips thrown his way only made me like him that much more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Vixen Posted July 17, 2011 Author Members Share Posted July 17, 2011 For many years, yes. It wasn't really until the later years that it was written that everyone loved Jason more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R Sinclair Posted July 17, 2011 Members Share Posted July 17, 2011 I can understand Monica being angry or upset at the deliberate deception, but let's keep it real. She just found out Jake was her grandson five seconds ago after he had been dead for months and having no emotional investment in the child during his life. For her to be all "What about what I lost? What about my pain? What about me? Why did you do this to me?" with Liz just rings false. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Antoyne Posted July 17, 2011 Members Share Posted July 17, 2011 One good scene in two years of crying about stubbing your toe, does not an amazing actor make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members miche Posted July 17, 2011 Members Share Posted July 17, 2011 I don't understand what make JJ watery eyes such great acting, when MB (I am Marlon Brando from the Godfather)mumbling, SB constipate face, LW snarling is consider lazy and bad acting. All of them are relying on one-tick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Skin Posted July 17, 2011 Members Share Posted July 17, 2011 JJ has more tricks in his bag then all three of those actors you commented on combined and magnified. Looking at the cast right now JJ's probably the best actor on GH right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Antoyne Posted July 17, 2011 Members Share Posted July 17, 2011 That's not really saying much now is it? And I'd rather watch Ingo any day of the week over JJ. Have you seen his recent work? When he's actually given material, the man can BRING IT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted July 17, 2011 Members Share Posted July 17, 2011 Then he should bring it. He relies on his one trick and it really dilutes his performance and abilities. When I see Lucky cry now, its not impressive at all bc he does it for the smallest things all the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted July 17, 2011 Members Share Posted July 17, 2011 I want all these people who talk about JJ being a great actor to give me specific examples of it other than scenes where he is crying or shouting. There is nothing remotely special about what JJ's Lucky is doing now. He only has chemistry with TG, he has no romantic chemistry with any woman on the show, and when he doesn't yell or cry he is a completely boring and dull character. All the increased story and screentime have demonstrated is how used up, unlikable, and vapid Lucky and the Spencers are now. Without Laura on screen, they have no depth or heart to them anymore and Lucky exemplifies that. Being a carbon copy of the Luke of today as thats exactly what he is now is certainly no complement. Greg as I have said before, was not the greatest actor but to be honest I want someone to tell me what the great acting of TG and JJ exactly have brought to this show aside from a bunch of fans still hung up on the laurels of yesteryear when their story and scenes together actually drove story and was not used for emmy bait.Nothing. Greg is not a great actor, so what, who is on GH and for those who are what has is mattered? He was charismatic. warm, and likable and rootable, He was allowed to hate Jason, which Lucky should. Its nonsense after what happened that Lucky and Jason are friends. And his relationship with Luke was fragmented, which guess what based on their history it should. The fact that Jakes death has turned into a Luke pity party has been a complete and utter failure, most of all with Lucky excusing it and Liz forgiving him.A drunk kills a kid and somehow the drunk is the victim. This would never have happened with Greg.If they really wanted a powerful story, Lucky should have been allowed to cut his father out of his life and plan to gather evidence against him as a matter of justice and revenge for his son's death. But all we got from JJ and TG were endless monologues and scenes about nothing.All JJ has done by coming on is allowed Lucky to get more screentime and become a bigger loser than he was before. And subtext? Where are the examples of this? In crying because name me one scene hes been in of note where he is not crying or screaming. I am no TC fan, but those last scenes of he and Lucky before he left, he ate JJ for lunch and he didn't cry or scream. Or the scenes of Monica and Tracy the other day or anytime Jane Elliott sets foot on screen. She's the best actor on GH far above JJ's Lucky by a mile. As for his relationship with his siblings, its practically non existant. Not a Tyler fan, but I actually bought he and Greg's Lucky as brothers more than I have bought he and JJ's Lucky this go around. Nikolas was also a better character a few years back when Emily, Laura, Stefan, greg's Lucky, and Alexis were key parts of his story and life but thats another discussion. So much for my tirade on the "golden boy". I feel better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R Sinclair Posted July 18, 2011 Members Share Posted July 18, 2011 Isn't this a moot point? GH had absolutely no intention on doing anything other than debase Lucky until Jackson returned. I'm sure Lucky would've had an accidental drug overdose or gotten killed in the line of duty by now if Vaughn had remained in the role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Antoyne Posted July 18, 2011 Members Share Posted July 18, 2011 Probably wouldve had Jason kill Lucky as justice for Jake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
