    How in God's glory can you put Natalie Portman and Keira Knightley next to Helen Mirren and Judi Dench? The former two are T&A* while the latter are genuine actresses. As for Paltrow she is OK, not great, just OK. * I detest myself for having typed that but it is sadly the truth when it comes to why those two are in films.

        The Sixth Element? Oh jeez. "Hey audience, you know how in the last movie we said the fifth element was the ultimate element? Turns out the studio reckons we should milk this so now there is something more ultimate than the ultimate element, yup, the sixth element. It ain't love this time, oh no, it's green, has dead presidents on it and can buy anything except love, baby." (I loved Fifth Element but a sequel would make so little sense I'd start thinking the other four elements were dubious at best.)

                        Never heard of that. What does it mean? Tits and arse? IMO Natalie Portman is quite a good actress (I blame SW on the Great Flanneled One); remember fifth of november? Keira is an ok actress I think, and one should not underestimate T&A (if it means what I think it does).

                          Have you seen Bandidas - excellent portrayals by Hayek and Cruz (film by Luc Besson)? The plot was thin, but they were excellent - and it doesn't hurt that they are incredibly easy on the eyes.
