View Full Version : The Olsen Twins-Good Actresses or Just Money Greedy?
Precious 04-27-2001, 12:00 AM http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/eek.gifWhat do you think about the Olsen twins' fame lately? Yes, they are good actresses, good dressers, and are pretty, but I think they're overdoing it. They've made a lot of movies and have a show coming up soon. Now they got a new line of clothes at Wal-Mart, and there's a bunch of Olsen twins games and videos. The twins need to give themselves a break. I bet they don't have time for school or family. They're just greedy for money, fame, and attention! Mary Kate and Ashley think they're so great cause they were acting since they were 1 on Full House. Yes, they did a good job on their movies, and I'm renting Winning London soon, but they're going way overboard with their line of clothing, video games, books, and their annoying You're Invited videos. Oh, and there's Mary Kate and Ashley dolls too. What do you think of the Olsen twins fame? http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/rolleyes.gif
I think they were pushed into by their parents and agents who continue to push them, I don't think they are necessarily greedy themselves. Their futures will be set. I'm sure they would trade in some of their fame and fortune to live more 'normal' lives.
Don't blame the twins if everybody buys all their stuff. Now if they start their own cable channel and show Two of a Kind all day I think that would be overdoing it..
dawsongirl 04-27-2001, 02:26 PM I thought they were good when they were little on Full House, but now they're just hype. And don't they ever do anything apart? I'd be getting mighty sick of my twin (if I had one) if I spent that much time with her. Of course, they're better and less hype than Brittney Spears :0
Jinny Exstead 04-27-2001, 10:48 PM hi, I completely disagree with you. I don't think they are being forced into this and if they didn't like it they wouldn't be doing it. I don't think they are doing it for the money, its just somehting they love to do, so they do it. If you want to talk more about it just email me, thanks
jinny_jo_2001 05-31-2001, 08:29 PM Their doing what they wanna do and thats that.
theshark8777 06-03-2001, 01:14 AM One day thier cuteness is going to be gone and the country will turn on them, just like Donny and Marie.
FactsFan4Ever 06-03-2001, 02:42 AM I don't know the twins personally, and I can't speak for them, but they love acting. I mean, the clothes and the games are a fad. They won't be around very long. It is just like Britney Spears and Christina Agularia. Those two are in a huge compitition with each other. They try to out do each other. Maybe the Olsen twins have a similar problem. Maybe they just don't want to be forgoten. Or maybe, they just don't want to give up after one thing is over.

JoJoJoJoJoJoJoJoJo 06-26-2001, 11:30 PM would you quit if YOU were making millions of dollars by 12 year old kids who thought your clothing, jewlery, video games, and movies were the greatest?! I mean, there not going to last forever....they might as well ride the ride while they can! http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/smile.gif
Madness 06-27-2001, 01:00 AM As long as Fox Family is still on the air, they'll be around!LOL
danzin01_1983 08-10-2001, 12:44 PM personally i think they are getting a little too old to be doing these kiddie movies i mean for crying out loud they are almost 15!!! and they are still doing the cutesie little movie that is made for a 11 year old!
I think it is was fine when they were 8 but now it is just old!
Ishqs 08-20-2001, 05:18 AM Good actresses?????
MuppetDog22 08-22-2001, 12:46 PM The Olsen Twins were good on Full House but they are way too overrated!! They have their own TV Show, Magazine, Movie, CDS. They aren't that good
danzin01_1983 08-22-2001, 08:22 PM the twins have done several of their own shows and if i am correct none of them have made it past a year if even that, i think that should tell them or who ever keeps pushing for all of this attention something, people just don't want to see them anymore unless you are 11 and lets face it 11 year old audiances don't bring in ratings!
I have to agree with some people. The Olsen Twins were excellent on "Full House", but When those "You are Invited to a Mary Kate and Ashley _____ Party" tapes or "The Mysteries" shows came out, that was it for me! I didn't even like their new show "Two of a Kind". I was glad when that show didn't last long. I say they were better left as Michelle and end it at that. I'm beginning to see right now that they are getting in WAAAAAAY over their heads!
nelsonfan 09-23-2001, 01:04 PM Well I would say that the movie It takes two is their best thing they have ever done after Full House.

I agree!! In 1999, when their show Two Of A Kind came out, there was a production company called Dualstar producing the show. A lawyer bought that for them coz he saw thier potential. If they don't want to do a project, they don't do it...the fact that they have been acting since before they could walk is just an insentive, and prooves they have amazing talent!

ClesStahn 03-15-2002, 02:08 PM I wish they were more like Tia and Tamera. Funny TV Show, good actresses, fairly well known.
XoVanillaRain90oX 03-17-2002, 10:59 AM i mean i like them but they cant "ACT-ACT" like dramaticly is what im saying. but they've got tooooooooooo much going on at once now!!!!!!
ClesStahn 03-17-2002, 02:46 PM Yeah, true.
Little Dixie Carter 03-20-2002, 08:08 PM I think that they were two great actresses!:D :) :happyface :wave: :p
Buffy22 05-26-2002, 12:43 AM I liked their movie "It takes two" and their show "Two of a Kind", and they seem to love acting. I think they are both planning to go to college, so maybe they'll settle down a bit.
Samsgirl xo 05-27-2002, 01:11 PM The olsen twins are EVIL. Theyre obviously trying to take over the world.. first fox family (come on theres like 50 million things per day with them on! LoL) Then Video Games, Dolls, Barbies, Clothing, Videos, Specials, movies, Sing along tapes oh god what else did i see advertised.. yes the creepiest of them all.. mary kate and ashley SHEETS!!!! AHH:eek: :eek: :eek:
ClesStahn 05-27-2002, 06:34 PM Ok, now THAT's not right.
Samsgirl xo 05-27-2002, 11:58 PM haha what? thats the passing joke with me and my friends everytime we turn on that channel their on.. and we went shopping and saw them.. doesnt anyone have a sense of humor? theyre making more money than ill ever make in my lifetime in one day.. LoL, but theyre still evil.. :happyface :lol:
ClesStahn 05-28-2002, 08:59 AM I was saying that's not right about the sheets. o.O
MyStErIoUs ChIck 05-28-2002, 10:23 AM I don't think Mary- Kate and Ashley are good actresses
at all. I mean, they've gotten a hell of a lot better since
Full House...but still....you can tell that they don't get
"into the character" they're portraying. They just recite
lines. That is not what acting is all about. I've seen
better actors/actresses in amateur plays! :rolleyes:
I have to admit that they're cute as a button, though.
Just can't act... (in my opinion).
Samsgirl xo 05-28-2002, 12:48 PM LoL yea the sheets are kinda scary.. lol
ClesStahn 05-28-2002, 01:01 PM I've only seen 'em a few times since Full house, but I agree with mysterious chick.

My name is Indigo. ;)
ClesStahn 05-28-2002, 02:45 PM Um... okay.
I just want to know who decided that those two needed to branch out into clothing and eyewear. They also have their names plastered all over books as well, but at least that encourages reading...
How many millions of dollars do those two (or their parents for that matter) need?
Just a tad bit jealous, I guess.
Samsgirl xo 06-15-2002, 07:23 PM LOL I KNOW! i was watching jay leno last nite n they came on it.. and they said they get 10 dollar a week allowence.. umm try like 10000 dollars.... GRR
dawsongirl 06-16-2002, 10:31 PM And they just got their driver's licenses. I wonder what kind of car a person can get on 10 bucks a week?

I agree. Good observation. :)
flutterby01 07-09-2002, 09:22 PM It seems that I can't go anywhere anymore without seeing them advertising something or in some new TV show or movie, or whatever. Too much of something is not a good thing. They were ok on Full House, but now they just get on my nerves. I'm not trying to be mean, but eventually, everone will grow tired of seeing them everywhere. That's just a fact of life. Like I said, too much of something is not a good thing.

JOEY: Check it out, some girl ate Monica!
MONICA: Shut up, the camera adds 10 pounds!
CHANDLER: So, how many cameras are actually on you?
ClesStahn 07-10-2002, 11:56 AM I agree with you there too. I'm glad TBS started showing Home Improvement.

Yea and they always play the same characters too just with different names..like mary-kate is always the more sporty one and ashley is the one who likes shopping more..Its gets annoying..and all their movies are like the same story in a different place...its really getting stupid..
jenc81 07-01-2003, 05:06 PM Mary-kate and Ashley each have an SUV that was given to them by ABC family on thier 16th birthday. They did not pay for them, they made abc alot of money and the cars were just a thank you gift. The Olsen's are still not alowed to touch the money that they have earned, they will not be able to until they turn 18, and if people are wondering about car insurance -the whole car is a write of threw dualstar productions.
Also someone asked who can up with the idea for the clothing line. The answer is the fans. During Two Of A Kind fans went crazy asking where they could get the clothing the twins wear. One of the Daulstar representives Judy Swartz notices this and pointed it out to Robert Thorne and The twins and the Clothing line was born.

spunkygirl 07-06-2003, 11:03 PM What's wrong with Mary Kate and Ashley capitalizing on their fame like any other celebrity would do? I mean I can't go to KMart without seeing Kathie Lee this Kathie Lee that, or Jaclyn Smith this, Jaclyn Smith that, Martha Stewart, and so on and so forth.
They are very popular actresses, and why shouldn't they be allowed to capitalize on that? I have seen tons of other actors and actresses do the same.
jenc81 07-08-2003, 04:48 PM I agree
Southerenboy5 07-08-2003, 04:52 PM Good actresses!!:)
becky1985 07-13-2003, 06:18 PM both:rolleyes:
but i still like them:)
