scarlet - has nice tits

edward norton - is not a bad actor, and not a pretty boy either, so he's not annoying

drew barrymore - i can't stand her

johnny depp - he's a good actor, and not a prick.

chloe sevigny - she doesn't annoy me, but she's nothing great either

gimme kate winslet any day, or the wonderful jessica lange, or the lovely cate blanchett.

i mourn the aging of jessica lange because she was such an incredibly hot woman. throw in charlotte rampling too, and the wonderful jeanne moreau.

SynthethicalY 06.05.2007 05:11 PM

Edward Norton is hot I have no idead what you are talking !@#$%! but I like older guys.

val-holla-ing 06.05.2007 05:15 PM

i really think edward norton is a great actor. the rest can eat it, though.

you don't know what i'm talking about?

"he's not a pretty boy" is a good thing in my book. it means that he looks like a man. pretty boys don't survive prison.

depp and norton are two off the finest character actors in hollywood, although norton is a fuckwit (see directorial interviews with the guy who did american history X, he wanted to make the film an allan smithee because of norton) he is a great actor but has made some bad films. depp has chosen wisely through out his career with onlly a couple of dud films but he is a fine actor and his characters are always well crafted, nortons career won't last as long as depp's and the only two really fine actors left standing from their sort of age range in the next twenty years will be p.s.hoffman and j.depp. as for the two chicks i don't like either of them, when i first saw ghost world i though the other girl gave a far stronger and more realistic performance than scarlett but not pretty enough to make big studio pictures, although i donot find johanssen attractive at all. and sevigny is just average. give me cate blanchett and franka potente anytime.

pantophobia 06.05.2007 05:54 PM

Scarlet Johansson - cute sure, but i haven't seen her act in anything good other then Lost in Translation
Edward Norton - ok i guess, not much of a fan, fucked Courtney Love so that cock is tainted
Drew Barrymore - had a crush on her for a while, until her neo-hippie outlook on life annoyed it away, may have fucked Courtney Love, so the puss may be tainted
Johnny Depp - i like alot of his work, a good actor and good looking, but immensly eclipsed by his deceased friend River Phoenix on both fronts
Chloe Sevigny - i liked her alot in Kids and Trees Lounge, i respect her output, kinda overlooked in acting ability

oh brother you missed match point, great woody allen film. scoop is a nice little movie too.

k-krack 06.05.2007 06:07 PM

Well, Scarlett is intensely hot, and a wicked actor (in one of my favourite movies of all-time, too (Ghost World)).Edward Norton- You watch Fight Club and tell me he isn't one of the greatest actorrs alive. Plus, he was on Stella, best tv show ever.
Drew Barrymore- ... What?! Who "loves" her? It isn't like she has some big amount of hype in this crowd.... but she's hot, so whatever...
Johnny Depp- Awesome actor, there is absolutely no way around that, and from what I've seen, he's a rad dude.
Chloe Sevigny- I don't know anything from her... Can't say anything.

It sounds to me like pork just wants us to know he is more indie than us... "I don't like good actors, that's how fucking hip I am."

Every great actor has done shit, no actor's filmography is flawless,

DeNiro did "Rocky and Bullwinkle"
Al Pacino did "Dick Tracy" if even these actors can't avoid doing bad films every now and then, nobody can.
Depp, is a good actor, when he's in a good film like say, "Donnie Brasco" his acting shines, when he's in a medicore film, he sure knows how to polish a turd. (The Ninth Gate comes to mind)
Edward Norton, has done good films, has done no so good films, I can take him or leave him.
Drew Barrymore- past her prime in both her beauty and her acting, was never a great actress, but at one point at least she was quite a cutie, that goes a long way for a short time.
Chole Sevigny-She's an indie darling, but I'll take Christina Ricci over her anyday.
Scarlett Johansson- A lot of pepole bring up "Ghost World" but it was obviously Thora Birch's movie, and even Steve Bushemi, not that Scarlett's role was any less fun to watch. In fact now that I think about it she tends to be overshadowed in much of her good work, "LIT" did more for Bill Murray and Sophia Coppla then it will ever do for Scarlett.

Don't show me those pictures, they make me crazy !!!
( Keep cool, keep cool....)

Everyneurotic 06.05.2007 07:22 PM

scarlet: a beautiful moron, i rather see pics of riley mason, paulina james or liz vicious, if you ask me.

edward norton: he's a good actor from what i've seen, and fight club is one of my favorite movies.

drew: i like her in a couple of movies, but she's the new sandra bullock, obviously.

depp: one of the few hollywood actors that don't make my stomach turn; he's in a bunch of movies i love (fear and loathing, ed wood, etc.).

chloe sevigny: people still talk about her? i thought she died with the 90's. she was like the actress indie dorks used to name drop instead of wynona ryder.

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 06.05.2007 07:27 PM

edward norton is one of my favorites.

atsonicpark 06.05.2007 07:40 PM

scarlet's an idiot but she is easily the hottest bitch around. it's undeniable. she's perfect. it's ridiculous. she's a terrible actress and an annoying person but goddamn. she even overcame the whole blonde defect to become the sexiest woman alive.. takes talent.

nature scene 06.05.2007 07:53 PM

The fantastic movies that these three have done is enough: (don't care about the other two)

Edward Norton - Death to Smoochy, Fight Club, American History X

Johnny Depp - Edward Scissorhands, Ed Wood, Donnie Brasco, Fear and Loathing (Going to be in Rum Diaries)

Scarlett Johansson - Eight Legged Freaks (can't win them all)

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 06.05.2007 08:36 PM

I don't like barrymore or depp, but I'm cool with the others (although Depp is awesome in Ed Wood)

demonrail666 06.05.2007 08:59 PM

Scarlet Johansson: Almost obscenely sexy.

Edward Norton: Can't say I've seen much, and I hated Fight Club, so...

Drew Barrymore: Will always be Gertie in my eyes, which sort of prohibits me from ever finding her in the least bit attractive. Cute, yes. Attractive, nope.

Johnny Depp: Again, haven't seen much but from what I have I can't see what the fuss is all about.

Chloe Sevigny: She was good in Kids and Gummo, but otherwise...

TITS AHOY!!!!! sweed lord almighty!

LifeDistortion 06.05.2007 09:57 PM

That first pic is probobly the sexiest pic she's done, not because of the lack of clothes but the lack of make-up, compare her face with the first pic to the other two, the second she looks like she belongs in "Blade Runner", the third she looks like a drag queen. I hate when beautiful girls wear a ton of make-up, the first pic proves, less is so much more, in more ways then one.

davenotdead 06.06.2007 01:00 AM

I used to love Scarlett, lately I dont know...that Timberlake video was awful...but i will forever like her in LIT and Ghost World and Girl with a Pearl Earring...Match Point was sexy, but the 2nd time I saw it, was kinda annoying...I dont know if thats her fault though (I blame Woody)....

MRs Norton and Depp are fantastic...you dont know what you are talking about if you dont like their abilities. that or you are a pretentious fuckwit too 'hip' for your own good.

Barrymore is kinda bland...i think she's tries to be interesting by dating guys like tom green...i dont know...dont really have an opinion of her...her acting doesnt blow me away...she's ok in some things...

Sevigny is an interesting one at least...she's not uber attractive in the traditional sense, and she's come to be the reigning queen of NYC/Indie-dom in film and fashion/incrowd stuff...and someone had to do it...her acting is pretty good most of the time too....

_slavo_ 06.06.2007 02:10 AM

I just want to underline this:

"scarlet - has nice tits

edward norton - is not a bad actor, and not a pretty boy either, so he's not annoying"

ALMOST? Damn, that's a story I'd love to hear.

sonicl 06.06.2007 03:27 AM

Drew Barrymore was hot when she was making her comeback and posing in Playboy, but she's a bit lukewarm these days.

Johnny Depp gets to do naughty things with Vanessa Paradis, who is hot, and therefore he is hot by association.

sarramkrop 06.06.2007 04:06 AM

Can we try to separate the fact that an actor/actress is dishy-looking from the fact that they are technically and emotionally versatile? All of the above have been in at least one movie that I have enjoyed (particularly Norton) , apart from Jahansson. That still doesn't convince me about their acting abilities. It just seemed that in those movies the director was carrying the movie, rather than the actor/ess.

davenotdead 06.06.2007 04:09 AM

well krop, I thought she was wonderful in LIT...I love how Coppola didnt allow Bill and Scarlett to see each other's dialogue, so that it would seem more like 2 regular people talking...and it does...watch how she always reacts with a smile and a little laugh everytime Bill says something...it may seem goofy if you dont know what the movie's about...but its just refreshing, and even beautiful in a sense...

sonicl 06.06.2007 04:13 AM

Okay.

Drew Barrymore - Seems to be cast in, and to accept, too many cutesy chick flick roles (50 First Dates / Music and Lyrics) that make it difficult to tell if she has the depth to carry off something more weighty.

Johnny Depp - The absolute opposite of the above, seems able to only accept arty thespian roles. When given a more lightweight role cannot resist the oppourtunity to ham it up.

Edward Norton - What was the racist/skinhead one that he was in a few years ago? [edit - American History X] He was brilliant in that. I can't think of any other films that he's been in.

Scarlett/Chloe - Are names rather than actresses whose performances I can remember.

That film is rubbish and the story/script is insipid. That sort of acting is also pretty commonplace these days, as well as the way that it's been shot. A highly overrated movie that got way too much praise. Pleasant enough to watch it, but it left me totally empty inside.

sure.

edward norton is a damn good actor. american history x, fight club... i recently saw him in the painted veil and he managed to remain almost invisible which is what i htink this required. not at all like keanu reeves in "dracula" faking an english accent, jeezus. no man, edward norton is totally an american actor but he's really good. and you dream.

johnny depp is great, come on-- his "pirates" is hilarious, then you get edward scissorhands on the other end of the spectrum. watchu want porks? more range? insane willy wonka, dead william blake in dead man. former undercover cop in teenybopper drama "21st jump street". the libertine, i admit, sucked blood clots, but ... ed wood? oh cmon, you're baiting-- are you baiting?

---
about drew barrymore yes, she sucks in every way, and chloe sevigny is famous for being indie but i don't think she acts much (sorry chloe). and scarlett-- well, scarlett has those tits. she's good in certain roles though, she did great in lost in translation, as well as match point. she's no jessica lange though-- jessica lange! that's a real actress.

Those are no more naughty things when you're married. With children.

sarramkrop 06.06.2007 04:32 AM

Yeah, but take two actors like Dennis Hopper or James Gandolfini (both excellent at playing the meanie), and then compare them to the most violent scenes in Fight Club. Norton lives off an already poor script and fails to overturn it into something good, and in American History X he lives off a good script and that's about it. Both the actors that I have mentioned could have turned those movies into something great, at Norton's age.

In that case it's probably fair to say that Ed Norton is the most talented. A lot of people talk up Johnny Depp in this way but he's just more original in his casting decisions than anything else, IMO.

Scarlet Johansson is decent but losing ground after taking on some terrible roles recently (Kirsten Dunst being her (slightly) more credible equivelent.)

Drew Barrymore hasn't really shown any talent since ET - apart from an ability to appear quirky.

_slavo_ 06.06.2007 04:35 AM

I will probably download the three pictures of Scarlett into my computer.

Now that I'm looking at them, it does strange things to my body.

:D

i dont know about gandolfini's range though-- before the sopranos, he had been forgettable. norton is more of a... hm an anglo saxon, his emotional expression is quite restrained-- has more of a stiff face, tight lips, wooden expression. but that's cultural-- not everybody can play some hot blooded don juan. so he was very good in the painted veil, where he plays this very stiff british doctor/public servant-- his intensity is more restrained, he doesn't move his hands when he speaks. of course pair him against marlon brando and he's going to lose big. he's still a good actor though, does his job well, but yeah he's no dennis hopper, eh.

I'm glad you said 'at Norton's age' in reference to Dennis Hopper, who's been a diminishing talent for quite some time now.

Most actors are bound to a certain period of their life that will forever define them. Jack Nicholson is a perfect case in point in that his entire career is now largely defined by the series of movies he made between One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and The Shining. Actors that have managed to remain interesting throughout the duration of their career are few and far between. Paul Newman never really did. Robert DeNiro LOOKED like he was able to but then descended into a kind of pointless self-parody. For that reason, Marlon Brando remains one of the true Hollywood greats in that he can be identified with so many varying roles in films as different as A Streetcar Named Desire, Last Tango in Paris and The Godfather.

Ghost World!
To answer the topic:
Scarlet Johansson = I think she's NOT a really good actress, plus she is totally overexposed [ads, music videos ( why, JT, why??), music, too many movies per year], and actually I think she's not SO good looking to deserve this kind of attention, but I suppose she's just making the most out of the moment, her fame will probably fade quite fast (unless she does a really , reaaaally nice flick)

Ed Norton = he's one of those guys (Kevin Bacon?) capable of doing great performances followed by BAD movies. His expressions/acting in the first part of American History X is truly amazing, imo, and he's good (very good) ni fight club and 25th hour.

Drew Berrymore = She is not THAT bad (confessions of a dangerous mind) but at the same time not that good.. I like the fact that she's also a producer. Evan Rachel Woods will take her place soon (drugs, rehab, light hearted movies).

Johnny Depp = I really like him, he did great "career choices", his tattoo is great, he's been with some of my favourite ladies in the businness, AND he's quite a wise guy. So, thumbs up for him.

Chloe Sevigny = I don't like her, but some of her expressions ( no, I didn't say blowjob) are really good, even better when she does not speak (thi is not an insult, but a compliment on her face).

exactly, norton's intensity is very internal, doesn't come out in grand expressions and gestures, which was my point.

but to parallel someone else, de niro used to be that way as well (take taxi driver), and in spite of his latest blunders de niro remains a superior actor. still that doesn't meant norton is bad or that his reputation is undeserved-- he's a good movie actor.
