It’s really good of you to say that, but I don’t believe you. No one likes it.

Ugh, my husband also loves that movie. Me, I’m not sure why the numerous mentions of that movie in this thread hasn’t inspired anyone to elect Sandra Bullock as a bad actor who shows up in good movies. Frankly, I think she sucks, and just her name in the credits is enough to make me skip a movie.

And at the very, very, VERY top of the list ought to be Kevin Costner. Good Lord that man and his monotone suck donkey balls.

Not to mention:

Michael Caine demonstrating how to walk like a lady.

A beauty pageant contestant whose talent is playing water glasses (I know there’s a name for this but UI can’t remember it offhand).

And who, when someone ruins her act by drinking from the glasses, does an impromptu demonstration of how to take out someone who grabs you from behind.

And:

“Hey! I’m gliding here!”

And Sandra Bullock’s snort-laugh!

It’s because Sandra Bullock has never been in a good movie.

It appears I have incurred the wrath of a group I did not know existed. I am doomed to spend my life looking over my shoulder for fear of an attack by a crazed Miss Congeniality fan. (Tautology there, perchance?)

Fran Drescher’s agent once said “It’s better to be shit in a hit than the other way around.” A newspaper once dubbed Fran "The actress you can’t forget in the movies you can’t remember.

My vote is for Devon Aoki (Sin City, DOA, War). Keanu’s got nothing on her, it’s almost as if she’s actually trying to be as wooden as possible. It’s frankly bizarre to me that she manages to score parts in movies.

Samaire Armstrong. She acts with her collarbones. Any talent she possesses resides in her clavicles. And she doesn’t have much.

Top 3:

1. Kevin Costner
2. Keanu Reeves
3. Demi Moore… I know everone likes her, but I don’t see why. I think she’s a pretty crappy actress.

She can talk?

I don’t mean that to be sexist. I have a clear image of her in my head, but I have no idea what she sounds like and had long ago assumed that she was, oh, let’s say her vocal cords were removed as part of her training to be an assassin.

Maybe, like Sandra Bullock, she sucks. Or maybe she sucks like Sandra Bullock.

Also, I liked Miss Congeniality. (I also like Sandra Bullock and would LOVE to see her suck. In a film.)

Also, also, I am Spartacus.
