I rest my case.



But feel free to add your own pics, showing what ever assets you feel need being highlighted.



Your pic has one eye shaded. Surely there are more than one shot of her with her eyes well represented, Shirley.

If you're trying to get me to open up my secret portfolio of Scarlett Johannson pics, you'll have to do better than that!

Nice try.













and stop calling me Shirley.

OK. NOW I get it. You were just referring to your stash of all those screen caps of Under the Skin, and of course this forum does not allow posts with that much graphic nekkidness.
Good point.

And I will admit, she may never have a more revealing role than that.

Honestly, I've not seen that yet.

Nor have I seen Lucy. I almost went today, but oddly it's only showing at 8pm and 10:15pm

Some shadow covers her.

Meh. Then what's the point ?

I was unclear. Ran out of time.
Some shadow covers part of her in one scene, another scene has some shadow covering a different part of her. I don't think there was any part of her which was both shadowed and unsilhouetted for the entire film. But they were spread out over 1 short sex scene and 3 longer scenes.

SPOILER ALERT!!

DISCUSSION CONTAINS SPOILERS.







Saw it (Lucy) over the weekend. I enjoyed it, as I figured I would.
This seems like it might be a career arc for Scarlett with Under the Skin, the Marvel works (more action than Lucy), and including Lost in Translation (non-sci-fi) and perhaps Ghost World (also non-sci-fi). It seems more thoughtful philosophy and exploratory intelligence concepts than one might expect from Luc Besson. Anybody holding a Luc Besson marathon will likely feel let down by Lucy, although some of the scene make it clear why he was involved. The Marvel works seem the least aloof of this group.

Perhaps the biggest objection some might make is the statement/claim that an increase of intelligence causes a reduction and eventual removal of pain and fear - yet somehow enhances love.
I know many people who strictly adhere to the concept that the Essence of Being Human is the pain, the fear, and the expression of Emotion. These folks absolutely reject the notion that clear, cold, concise, rational thought is a sign or indication of higher intellect, but that those only describe lower intellect, and that higher intellect relies upon the integration of emotion and irrationality into the thought process. I suspect that for those people, this film's claims could be unacceptable.

They're more likely to find objectionable that:

Select to view spoiler:


the spark of life on Earth came from Lucy time traveling a billion years into the past. Lucy passes along her accumulated wisdom on a flash-drive given to Morgan Freeman, "Life was given to us a billion years ago. Now you know what to do with it." Asking where Lucy is, she answers, "I AM EVERYWHERE." She's a God now.

That is where the movie was headed from the very first time Lucy did something physically impossible.

Let's just say that scientifically the whole premise is bunk, but if you leave science at home the movie might be enjoyable.

Me, I won't be able to get past any of it.
