There's another one I wouldn't mind never seeing in another movie again - Zooey Deschanel. And, if she could take The Arcade Fire and all those other sleepy 'indie' darlings with her, that'd be pretty great, too.
And Cameron Diaz should probably think about some time off, too.
And Ashton Kutcher should go jump inside a shark or something. Make like the Kintner boy.
Same goes for Seth Green, aside from his television work. No problem there. |

I don't mind Zooey. I mean I don't cream my pants for her like others do, but she has her odd charm.

I can't stand Cameron Diaz. I'm in agreement.

Yes, I'd see Kutcher jump in to a shark tank.

I like Seth Green alot so I disagree. |

Inside a shark. Not a shark tank. People swim in shark tanks all the time. |

But it'd be fun to watch him struggle to survive. Putting him in a shark is too quick. |

I don't mind Zooey, but I think she's the less talented Deschanel sister.
I'm with you on Diaz though. I never really liked her.
As for Kutcher, I haven't seen him in anything in years... but I have to admit I find him kind of goofy and adorable. Not someone with any real acting chops, but I don't dislike him.
And as for Seth Green... talk bad about him again and I may have to cut you. He is a god.

I disagree. Emily Deschanel is in that crappy "Bones" show and often looks and sounds like a man. I think Zooey is infinitely more talented and has proven it in my eyes. |

Emily's performance on Bones is infinitely more nuanced than anything Zooey's done. Which is part of what makes Bones so good. The characters are some of the most well written and acted on TV, not to mention they're more diverse than most shows.

I like Zooey's offbeat personality more, but I'm inclined to say that Emily is the better actor. Zooey is good in roles that play to her personality.
If I ran the world, I would keep copies of "Tombstone", "The Doors", "Real Genius" and "Top Secret" around and dump Val Kilmer and everything else he's ever done into a volcano. Always hated his personality. Plus I'm still holding a grudge against him for effectively ending Richard Stanley's directing career just so everyone on the set of "Island of Dr. Moreau" knew what hot shit he thought he was. He appears to have been humbled the last few years judging from his film roles, but I'm not convinced he's any different.
I like Seth Green, but he is approaching that dangerous level of over-exposure.
And no, there's no body double in "The Good Girl". It's all Aniston (though brief). |

I couldn't disagree more. After watching a few episodes of this show I couldn't stand it. It's just another variation of CSI except with a magic computer that manages to fill in all the holes and do the work for the creatively bankrupt writers. "Bones" is truly nothing new. Oh Boreanaz and Deschanel are so off beat and yet so good together, blah blah.
And no I think Zooey has more talent in her finger than Emily can ever hope to have.
I'd rather watch that crappy "Tin Man" movie than ever lay eyes on "Bones," again. |

Well, you can't really appreciate how well developed the characters have become over five seasons from a few episodes, and Bones is much more science heavy than most procuderals.
But as much as I like to debate with you, my little Termie, I don't have the time right now to debate this one.
Oh but also.... Bones? Best. Gore. FX. ANYWHERE on TV.

I can agree with that. His Doc and Morrison are just flat out amazing performances that were absolutely perfect for him. |
