Yeah, sorry… Coming up empty on that one… just not enough for me to personally judge her on yet. :)

Oh well, I'd thought you'd have more insight into her acting. A lot of people think she's underrated because of her tv appearances Big Love and Veronica Mars, but I haven't seen those. I honestly haven't formed an opinion on her acting yet. I just think she's pretty and I like her hair.lol Yes, I can be superficial too sometimes, but I don't go overboard like the Cedric Diggory fans.lol.

You know, I guess the best answer is to say I don't think of her. However, she has now reinvented herself with Mamma Mia!

I had only seen Seyfriend in Mean Girls and Alpha Dog and neither did anything for her career. Mamma Mia is a strange success in that she was not good in it and with Jennifer's Body and a Nick Sparks flick in the works I am not sure if she is trying to be an Oscar-winning actress. Nothing against her, she just doesn't interest me too much.

I can see what you are saying about Anne now. I was just on a board where they are giving thier predictions and someone said "Anne is going to get a nomination and maybe even a win.They can't deny her this time." WTF. I like Anne to a certain extent, but what the hell has she done? The poster made it sound like she was overdue. Her next projects aside from Wonderland are not that promising to be honest, Bride Wars and two more rom-coms, the opposite of love and fiance???!!! I understand she has her fans , but let's be serious.

BeautifulM said: Are you still doing the Next Reese Witherspoon for the actresses?

It's coming. I have the list and just need to find the motivation to hammer it out. Also, it will be more of a "Next Julia Roberts" thing since I think Reese Witherspoon never lived up to her potential in that department despite winning the Oscar for Walk the Line, which was really her last good film.

I think the thing with Anne is that Winslet and Streep are still unseen ( at least by the critics, there was a screening of RR and they say Winslet was good, but Leo was great). So right now aside from those you mentioned who else is there to predict??? I mean Anne is getting some really good reviews, so right now everyone is going to predict her. When we see more performances she may not get as many predicitions.

Me personally, I'm not that interested in "Rachel Getting Marrfied" that much. So I haven't seen it.

Are you still doing the Next Reese Witherspoon for the actresses?
