I know they kind of make fun of it like "haha, fire your agents" but seriously, Jensen even BEING on that list is a good thing in my eyes.

Because that's a list ranking actors as far as their potential to draw people to movie theaters by name alone and done by people in the movie business. So, take an actor who has done predominantly TV work, none of that big blockbuster shows/big phenomena and has JUST made his big screen debut (after the survey was conducted)? That they even knew his name to include in the list is great. I skimmed it and there were a lot of names missing from hit shows or smaller shows and frankly a lot of names that made me go "who?"

In other news, Germany's Next Top Model starts today and I feel conflicted because despite my ranting against casting/reality shows that is actually the one I enjoy. I guess, I just have to embrace my inner shallow voyeur. *g*

And in yet other news, if anybody wants a good laugh, go to deadlinehollywooddaily.com and scroll through all the articles on the battle between SAG (the actor's union) and the studios. I started following it because I wanted to be prepared in case of another strike but this union has, well, I don't think there are words. Political implosion? Violating oneself with an iron-rod? And what kills me is that by making every little thing public in pissing contests, they made it a million times worse.

I really used to fear a strike at the beginning of the year. Now, I no longer do. Not one bit.

So, I watched (if you can call it that) My Bloody Valentine 3D )

My verdict: This is not and never will be the kind of movie I fancy, horror/slasher that is, but it held together well enough. Better than Devour in any case. What Devour had over it was more Jensen. When Jensen was not in a scene, my mind just wandered. *g*

Oh, and of course, spoilers for the movie in the post. :)
