Adam Sandler Used to be Jim Carrey, but The Truman Show and Man in the Moon were good. ---

There’s actually a small but vocal boycot of Jane Fonda, for political reasons. I just don’t like her, myself. ---

Hugh Grant. I don’t know what it is about him but just looking at him irritates me. It’s too bad because I really want to see **About a Boy**. I enjoyed the book. ---

Woody Allen – I never thought he was funny, ever, but now it’s worse because he’s creepy in addition to not being funny. Billy Bob Thornton – is that even his name? I became enraged recently because he was spouting off about killing komodo dragons. Now I know this is a fairly stupid reason not to see movies, because all sorts of movie stars probably talk about many things that I don’t approve of, but for some reason this just SET ME OFF. I’m very fond of komodo dragons. ---

No actors, but I refuse to listen to REM due in part to Micheal Stipe’s condescension towards the Beatles. ---
