Such embarrasing roles! Hollywood must hate her

I just saw Wish I was Here and she might as well have not been in the movie. What an embarrassing role! For someone who gets above the title billing on the poster, her role is ludicrously small. She's in it for maybe 5 minutes at most, and that's a generous approximation at that. Why even put her name on the poster at all?? I wonder why Zach Braff didn't want to give her a bigger role. The same can be said about most other filmmakers who have made similar decisions. I mean I have yet to see her have a substantial role in any major film. It seems the only thing she gets large roles in are obscure movies few people have ever heard of like LOL, Skateland and A Warrior's Way.

Kind of reminds me of Olivia Wilde who actually does score roles in many major films but they are almost always small embarrassing roles (In Time, Her, Rush, Year One)

She was actually offered a major role in Scream 4 but couldn't do it due to scheduling...considering how badly that turned out I wouldn't say a major role in that would've been anything laudable though.

I'd imagine if she were truly hated in Hollywood, she wouldn't be getting roles period.

That role in Wish I Was Here was first written for Anna Kendrick and she's supposed to be a big name. Later Ashley replaced her..

i think Zach wanted to have cameos of as many actors as he could in his movie.

Why would Hollywood HATE her for taking roles they need someone to do?

You don't sound bitter at all.

Normally I defend Twilight as I cannot stand all the childish haters who claim they don't watch it. But Scream 4 is no worse; not my favorite of the series but it's not that bad.

I found Scream 4 so bad it ruined a franchise for me that I grew up loving. I hate S4 more than I love the original. It's essentially an SNL or Mad tv skit masquerading as a Scream film.
