    Can Joseph Fiennes be the new Ralph Fiennes?

    I thought Christian Slater would replace Jack Nicholson but then he went froot-loops.

    I think it is completely ridiculous how the media is still so totally focused on Brangelina (neither of whom have appeared in a decent movie in ions) and Jennifer Aniston and on and on.


    I think it must be the symbiotic relationship between the media and the agents working for these people. It stifles the opportunity of anyone new to get through.


    If I have to see one more VH-1 special gushing over Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie and the rest of them having the best bodies, the best pads or whatever I am going to spew.

    @The King of the Puppy Bears: Well, frankly, I was always partial to New Freedom and then when Kotex bought them out, there went my funnel dot protection. Now who has the best pads? I honestly don't know.

    Um, I'm sorry, but am I seeing 1.8 Gossip Girlers showcased up there? Please let movies not go unto the realm of god-awful, teeny bopper, ascot-wearing, douchelins! Aren't there any bonefied movie stars anymore? Ugh! I hate the laziness of these Generation Y-ily, vapid, troglodytecal Miley Cyrus borgs with their bean-bag chair depths of intelligence and EZ Bake Oven approaches to stardom. Just pop one in fully formed and they're a CW show away from a frickin Oscar. Pfffffffttttt!

    @Dandy Darkly: What? Who? Dawn? Let's see her in a nice indie about an angsty young adult with a troubled past, perhaps there's some addiction issues, given her age that would be meth, some mommy or daddy problems etc. etc. Then we'll see how she does when she looks all crack ho-ish and strung out. Yeah. Isn't that what the Anne Hathaways and Bijou Phillips's of the world do now?

    A woman stopped me on the street last week and asked me to do a blind taste test of brooding actors. I tasted both samples and chose my favorite. She lifted off the mask and it was Wilford Brimley! I was stunned.

    How about just a bunch of CGI apes for awhile? Just for an arbitrary amount of time, like, for twenty-eight months, all roles will be taken by CGI apes.


    Bring these highfalutin movie stars down to earth for a bit. Everybody can be all, "You're not a CGI ape! Go park yer own car!"

    @Xylo: Ah, but see, human actors can always get work as a sort of novelty thing...dress 'em up in people clothes and have 'em do, like, "people" things. Look, it's Angelina Jolie in a judge wig banging a gavel! And look! There's George Clooney acting like a lawyer and ha ha, his pants fell down! Lookit his diaper!

    Jolie will never go away. To my utter dismay and revulsion she will never, ever, ever, ever go away. Her only love is having a camera in her face.
