While this lunch between Jennifer Aniston & Aaron Eckhart (yes, I see there's another guy there, let me dream) was probably all business, I do like the idea of these two as an item. They were both invited to join the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences this year, so they've got that in common, and I looooved Aaron in Thank You For Smoking. That being said, I don't know very much about him -- maybe he's not even single. He seems like a pretty stand up guy, which could be great for single again Jen -- he's definitely got a charismatic smile.

You should see him in Possession with Gwyneth Paltrow. That's when I first fell for him. It has to be his sexiest role...
1Ew, that would be a weird match.
He's a cool and talented guy with a lot of movies coming out soon.
2What would their Hybrid celeb name b?
3the tall guy is a Universal Studios executive namedh Scott Stuber. It was posted on justjared.
4Um...I don't think Aaron Eckhart was in "A History of Violence" not sure who you're thinking of but it wasn't him.
5Stevemcnash, I had just logged in to make the same comment before I saw yours!
Yeah, Eckhart def. wasn't in "A History of Violence". Maybe she's thinking of Viggo's part? Personally, I found V.M. unforgettable in that role but that's the only possibility I can think of.
6I'm starting to feel sorry for Jennifer again: sagging film career, no serious relationship.
7When I read this headline, I instantly thought they would make a cute couple. Probably just a business lunch, though. Let's see if they make a movie together. That could be interesting!
8yeah, he wasn't in the Cronenberg's movie. you made a mistake.
but maybe, Mortensen+Anniston, it would be weiiird.
9I hope it's a drama instead of a comedy! I know aniston is a funny person ( i think in real life she's funny, i have seen her on leno and letterman, she made them laugh), anyway she could do with a nice drama to show everyone she can be someone else too. It's been a long time since the good girl. That was a good movie.
10Thank you for not smoking was a really cool movie, i like this guy, I think he's a good actor. If Jen hooks up with him, it'll be real nice.
11I doubt they are hooking up. She's got a lot of baggage and issues, which a lot of men aren't into.
She's done drama since the Good Girl and it wasn't very good, like Derailed, Rumor Has It, Friends with Money. I read that she couldn't get funding for some of the unmade projects her name is still attached to.
12You know, i wish Jenifer all the best cos she's been through so much....with that waste of space and insensitive man she use to call her husband! I just hope she finds the right guy to settle down with and her career picks up.....soon lol
13Maybe Pop was thinking of "In the Company of Men", that was a creepy, evil movie.
14lol janeiro
i would feel sorry for her too,but with 110m in the bank she can buy a man if necessary and fund her movies if desperate...
15OK, I'm officially freaked out. I swear, I read Janeiro & sushibanana's comments on some other thread a few days ago. I remember because it wasn't even about Jennifer Aniston so I didn't know why they were talking about her. Something weird's going on...
16what about erin brockovich? i always think of that when his name comes up. he played the long haired motorcycle riding neighbor/love interest to julia roberts...
17She has a lot of baggage? uuum i didn't know people here knew Aniston personally, when did you meet her and get to talk to her?? Anyways this luch was with universal executives it wasn't an intimate tete a tete with just the two of them, so that quasi-rumour can just get squashed. Sad how peoplefeel you need to have a man beside you in order to be considered hot and succesful in Hollywood.
18omg, the hate some people have for this wonderful person. People what you say about her is just as bad as when people slag off your idols (bragelina, I see familiar faces here and i know they are true fans of the brangelina). Why can't people move on..you don't need to mention the stupid love triangle (which's so yesterday) to make people realise you aren't over it yet. All of the parties involved have moved on from the past a long long long time ago so why don't you all do the same?
19Jen is rich, funny, kind and in demand by the studios. Believe it or not people, she actually has fans..The same way brangelina have fans like yourself. She makes money for the studios and she's really keeping herself to herself these days. I guess with all the noises some haters make about the past, she's sick of it and who can blame her? This girl has moved on and she's very happy. Good for her!

@ people still feeling sorry for her and talking about it.
@ people still bringing up her ex-husband. She is always wearing white tank tops, jeans and being
called wonderfully fashionable for it.
21Mello some people will continue to hate no matter what. They find it difficult to get over the past even when the people who were involved in the past have all moved on a long time ago. I just think it's kind of sad that they won't let these celebs get on with their lives. They're just creating drama for the three of them (who I'm sure wish they weren't famous in the first place!)
22can't we ever have a jen post without people bringing up brad, or vice versa? i'm a huge fan of aaron's. maybe their hybrid name would be aariston?
23No cos you know B-dad it is the ultimate pinnacle in manhood, he's just so perfect and irreplaceable once you've had him you can't go anywhere but down and she's not a real woman cos she couldn't keep him(excuse me while i hurl).
24I'm with you on that point nyaradzom2001, since when it's wrong not to have a famous boyfriend in hollywood? Man can't a woman just live her life quietly without a man? Can't a woman be successful without a man in hollywood? It's funny and ridiculous!
25I'd love for these two to be together. I'm still a fan of hers from Friends though she has never trumped that with anything else. I love her basic fashion sense too. I hope she finds happiness in her personal life too. Feeling the love for JA.
26If Jen is with Aaron Eckhart, that's cool. He seems awesome and can't wait to go see No Reservations with CZJ. But if Jen is still single, more power to her!
27Can someone please remind me what exactly Jennifer Aniston's career consists of as of right now? Besides those Vitamin Water ads and being constantly photographed at LA restaurants, what is she really doing? Are we going to keep her around and endlessly speculate about her love life forever just because Brad Pitt left her for Angelina Jolie? I certainly hope not. Rachel needs to pack her things and hit the road to obscurity, pronto.
28i love aaron eckhart (bty, agree w/people that he wasn't in a history of violence) and i REALLY hope he doesn't hook up w/jennifer aniston. i can't stand her.
bonjouchaton: i love your comment.
29you said exactly what i was thinking after reading some of these comments, nya!! i don't understand why people think you need a man in your life to be happy or successful.
i personally think jen and aaron would make a great match. he's H-O-T! he was brilliant in thank you for smoking and is the reason i would be willing to see that new movie (reserved?) with catherine zeta jones. but that doesn't mean i think they are getting together...just an observation.
30Can someone please remind me what exactly Jennifer Aniston's career consists of as of right now?
If you aren't being sarcastic, there are various ways you can find out about this (google is your best way), but the most obvious one is a film with meryl streep, some haters said streep's dropped out (which isn't true), the project is on still, but it's at the pre production stage (meaning money is there but they're still finding staff to pull it off nicely), she is also producing a musical movie with her friend who's a writer and a producer (kudos to that!), and she is in talks with other projects which we don't hear about cause that's just the way she likes it. Private. No showing off about anything just nice and quiet. Classy.
31AND, i don't feel sorry for her. i also think she is far more deserving of being 'kept around' than any of the laguna beach/hills people or even paris hilton (who achieved fame only by doing drugs and half of hollywood). according to IMDB, it's been announced that she has three movies set to come out in 2009. and i would say the same thing about those other people commonly associated with aniston who shan't be named in this post.
32The last time I check she's still one of the highest paid actresses in the la la land (hollywood), yeah she's such a has been that they're willing to pay her a lot for a movie, lol.
33the very people that keep her around are her fans (which i think aniston has more than a few in america) jenintx, lol
34I'm just trying understand the difference between Aniston and all the hundreds of other actors and actresses out there that don't have much success after being on a hit show...and the only difference, as I see it, is her relationship with Pitt, which is why he will always be brought up and why women feel compassion for her and why she will be followed and photographed. Aniston seems a nice enough, cool enough person, and I hold no ill-will towards her...but I don't feel sorry for her and I definitely don't and never have pitied her and neither have I envied her.
35You know give me Jen over f**king Paris and LL and Nicoleany day. Her only problem is that she got dumped publicly for Mother Theresa 2.0 and the new couple proceeded to pick up kids all over the world cementing their aaaw status ( and ick status for quite a few of us). She hasn't been in rehab, hasn't been to jail, hasn't been knocked suspiciously befoer a court case that could get her in jail and she hasn't famously endangered the lives of people by driving while strung out on drugs. She might be boring but she's highly preferable to the over-sexed, uber skinny, reality show alums bimbettes famous for opening their legs to anything that carries a platinum amex card that have recently flooded hollywood.
36Actually no one mentioned the whole Brangelina thingy.... WTF?
37the fans brought it.... and talking about not being over it
38
39Mello - I know its so weird that they call Jen fashionable when she only uses jeans and tops.... hey! Maybe is how you rock it...
40ooo I wonder if this post will exceed the Beckham post count yesterday
I honestly think it's just real difficult for Jen Aniston to have any sort of relationship, given the constant media surrounding her. I'm sure she finds it frustrating, since the media is watching her EVERY move, and commenting on it. I think that's probably a good reason why she hasn't had the best of luck with men lately.
41I'm not going to write a comment to see comments anymore it just gets tiring, this is the last time.
42I don't think so FB ther's nothing particularly noteworthy about this lunch.
43Nya what you mean by "write a comment to see comments"
44Nyara, I let Team know about the problem. What I do is instead of clicking on new comments, I just go back and click on all the comments, and then scroll down to where I last read. Pain, I know, but better than having to type a new one every time.
45LOL Deba... you are correct. The first mention of Brangelina in this thread comes from the Aniston fans.
Seriously, does any Aniston fan really defend her dramatic acting in Derailed? Or her semi-drama/comedy acting in Freinds with Money or Rumor Has It?? Both of those last two movies had good supporting cast, but didn't fare well at the box office.
I've probably seen more of her films than her dedicated fans, and I thought she was good in her earlier comedies, but by The Break Up, that character she always plays was wearing thin.
46that is why Im saying "Talking about not being over the situation"
47I hope no one thinks I meant feeling "sorry" for her in an anti-Jennifer way (Although it is amusing to see how one can project onto a sentence). I wish her the best. It's just when I see her, it's like seeing one of your favorite athletes riding the bench: you want them out there on the field, scoring hit after hit.
48Vigo Mortensen was in History of Violence.
49For some reason I think AE is too smart to get into a tabloid relationship. He doesn't need that kinda publicity, he's actually good at acting.
I don't really see that happening in Jen's career, Janeiro
