Regarding the bolded, it still astounds me that in this day and age, when women are making such strides, that most of the negative remarks about women on the net are by other women. Alicia is just one of many women who gets trashed daily by fellow women. And if a woman is successful, there seems to be great delight in taking her down.

It's gotten to the point where I seriously question if Hillary ******* can win the presidency because from what I see everyday, women simply don't support other women. Can you just imagine a woman saying the same stuff as Donald ***** and getting away with it? I think it's worse in America where we judge people in general on the dumbest things.

Exactly what I see everywhere, sometimes I'm sure she would have been more well accepted if she wasn't dating someone who is "famous" because if the roles where reversed most of the headlines and articles wouldn't be featuring her name on it too but sadly that's how the media treat woman. A woman can just be herself, she has to be someone's girlfriend, wife or daughter. Like for example, most news around the net when Cathriona White died where "Jim Carrey's girlfriend dies", her name was just not important.

Yeah, it was like they used Jim Carrey's name just to make it a bigger story with the emphasis on him. No one seemed to care she killed herself other than how it affected him.

Alicia has been described as "Michael Fassbender's girlfriend" but he's not described as "Alicia Vikander's boyfriend". It's the same with other celeb couples.
 
It would be nice to read a thread on this website about an actress I like without people constantly comparing her to Jennifer Lawrence. It's possible to like both, you know. Even if you don't like both, JLaw is irrelevant to this thread, so why is she constantly being brought up? Why do some people think they need to drag down other people and diminish their success in order to prop their faves? It's ridiculous and, I'll say it, reeks of sexism. You don't see people saying "I think Leo DiCaprio is overrated!" in threads for Fassbender and Christian Bale and all his other peers. It's so annoying to read. I come to read this thread because I like Alicia, why can't we keep the discussion focused on only her and not constantly talk about other actresses and their careers and talents?

I agree, there's no need to make comparisons. They are all individual and have different strengths and talents. Consequently each will be better suited to different roles. Personally I think Alicia is more talented and versatile than many of her peers, but recognise she's not suited to all roles. I also dislike the way some people paint her as overly ambitious and arrogant based on one interview comment where she said nothing more than acknowledge some of her upcoming films had Oscar potential. I won't go into all the bs written about her personality etc, think we're all aware of what's behind that! IMO 99% of the negative stuff said about her is directly linked to her being in a relationship withMichael Fassbender. It's enough for me that people who've met and worked with her all describe her as a lovely person as well as talented and stunning.

Quoted for truth. It's so transparent. Some of the comments in this thread used to reek of jealousy, although admittedly it hasn't been as bad in recent weeks.
 
Hear hear. I don't think any of them benefits from being compared either! They have different strengths and weaknesses and of course there's competition for roles but that's the reality of it.

I personally can't wait to watch BIFA, that best actress category is going to be brutal. Alicia, Marion Cotillard, Carey Mulligan, Charlotte Rampling, and Saoirse Ronan are all amazing actresses. Just being part of that crowd must be so flattering! :)

FWIW, I think that the comparisons stem largely from that blind item that came out after comic con last summer that many attribute to them.

Possibly, but the negative stuff started way before then; to be accurate when it emerged Alicia was Michael's girlfriend and not a fling. And it's the gossip mongers who are behind blind items too. Gossip is overwhelmingly malicious and untrue, I ignore it.

Yes. Let's not give it the time of day. Alicia has praised JLaw both before and after that rumour came out. It's all orchestrated by people who doesn't like Alicia having success. Moving on.

The Bourne shoot seem to be taking place outside a lot. Vincent was seen by the docks the other day and Matt has been shooting by a train station too. They seem to be shooting a lot in Paddington :) can't wait to get a glimpse of Alicia. She said Fantastic Beasts was being shot in the same studio so her and Eddie have been having lunch together and she got to see him work :)

There's a train station at Paddington too, a big one, maybe they are using that if they are filming in that area? Or Marylebone Station is close by. Although Docklands is in East London - was Vincent seen filming there or just hanging out, lol. I know he was seen with Michael Fassbender at the weekend [emoji6]. I guess Alicia is filming interior shots as she hasn't been spotted in exterior filming yet - bit like Michael - AC has been filming outside but he hasn't been seen either. Or have they gone off together on another of their mini holidays ...lol!
 
Yes, but the Paddington station is so big, it didn't look like it was that one. A smaller one close by or a closed down platform somewhere :) I think the studio is north west of London, could be wrong. Yes, they were out having dinner, it's great having them all spending time in London so they can catch up :)

I think the Bourne shoot may go on for a while. Heard something about it being in Alicias contract that she is allowed to leave during filming for the Danish girl duty if they are nominated at events. So she is allowed to take time off filming to go to BIFA or The European Film Awards. Maybe events too. Which probably means filming will continue into December.

The Bourne studio is at Leavesden, near Borehamwood/Watford in the north west suburbs of London; it's where the Harry Potter films were made too, obviously!

If you've got a photo of the station I can maybe identify it, I know most of the London main line stations, big and small. And yes, it's great everyone can get together and socialise after work too [emoji2]
