    Saw that trailer, too. I think it's going to suck (I'm not big on romance movies, anyway), but it is an interesting concept.

    Streep is the best. She loses herself in her characters so much you forget you're watching Meryl Streep-- and how can your forget you're watching Meryl Streep?

    The foreign accents she's done over the years ....

    Go watch Sophie's Choice back-to-back with... I don't know, Devil Wears Prada.

    Or watch Bridges of Madison County back-to-back with Kramer vs. Kramer.

    Then watch Adaptation.

    Johnny Depp my ass - You won't argue with me.

    It's David Fincher's next film. It has a strange title, but anything with Fincher, Pitt and Blanchett attached pretty much has to be a masterpiece.

    Barney Rubble, what an actor.

    What movie?
     
  8. I actually thought about both Pitt and DiCaprio. Of the two, I think Pitt's the better actor. Both were originally stereotyped as the pretty boy, but both have broken out pretty well.
    Watch Pitt in 12 Monkeys or DiCaprio in Gilbert Grape and tell me those guys can't act.

    I still can't figure out how DiCaprio was denied the Oscar for Gilbert Grape.

    Daniel. Day. Lewis.

    Shocking that it takes this long for his name to come up.
