What?! Do you not know anything about how films are made? Just because you purchase writes to a book, somehow write the scipt, even though you're an actress and not a writer, invest everything you've made into making it— doesn't mean the film gets distributed. It doesn't mean anyone sees it. Wake up.

Actually I would argue that part of the reason Twilight is so popular is that it actually espouses some morals and leaves things in the romance/relationship to the imagination. I have seen both movies and read all the books. I like them but don't in anyway consider them great literature or award quality movies (although the 2nd is better). I do love the fact though that the author left things to the imagination and actually addresses the topic of right and wrong.

Hollywood should look into the deeper reasons why the stories are so attractive to so many young girls. Sure the stories are romantic and fantastical, the movies star good looking boys (depending on your taste of course) but I think there is more to the appeal as I previously mentioned. I don't think Hollywood will get it though.

Mary Wickes was one of my favorite of the old "character actresses". And she kept working for decades, right up until her death, despite not being conventionally attractive.

According to imdb, Mel is starring in a movie next year directed by Jodie Foster called "The Beaver" (no jokes, please). That seems to be his only upcoming picture, however.

Tina Fey is an even bigger reason not to watch "30 Rock". Not saying she or Baldwin can't be funny, but their political-bashing just overshadows everything else they do

I don't know, but I don't have as much respect for him now because of his recent divorce and subsequent announcement that his girlfriend is pregnant and that had nothing to do with his separation from his wife. Well the fact that he was sleeping with another woman might have something to do with it.

Shia was great on the Disney channel show Even Stevens. I was in college and watched that show. It is still hilarious. Unfotunately that is the last good thing I have seen him in.

I don't know, I really love Will Smith, Morgan Freeman, and now that Robert Downey Jr. is clean he is doing some good work as well. I also have never heard Will Smith say anything particulary negative about conservatives (or Morgan Freeman either) but I don't pay a whole lot of attention to what actors say about politics anyway.
