: : I gotta go with Delilah on this one. A lot of really great young actresses were mentioned for the part, and who gets it? The Breasts.
: Tsk, tsk ladies. I wasn't even aware Shannon had breasts.
: : None of the other three (Hudson, Smart, or Carradine) seem very endowed in the chestal area, but they are all bright and beautiful actresses.
: Wait a sec - you can opine on the latter, but can you honestly speak knowingly on the former?
: : Why'd Elizabeth get the part? My guess is tits.
: You guess wrong. She got the part because she's gonna be perfect.
: And since nobody knows what the part is, let's institute a moratorium on judgement calls, shall we?
: : I'm betting on some toplessness.
: You'd lose.
: : And before anyone cries "jealous," it's not that. I'm just annoyed that in the game of life, it still seems that tits beat brains like paper beats rock.
: Again, where do you get the impression that Shannon's not brainy but the other girls are? I've sat down with some of these cats. I can tell you you're barking up the wrong tree.
: And regardless, it's not a brainy part. It's not a boobs-y part either, so quit making that assumption.
: : It is just insulting.
: To whom?
: : Brains and talent should prevail.
: They have, ma'am. They have.
: : I'm hoping/guessing/assuming that Elizabeth must be a good actress underneath those mammoth mams because Kevin surely wouldn't cast a chick simply because of her jugs--would he?
: No.
: : But then again, maybe that's what the part calls for. She is supposed to be Jay's love interest or something.
: Or something.
: : I just hate Shannon Elizabeth and love Kate Hudson.
: Ah, but there's a Kate story - and not a pretty one. Look for it in three weeks over at Psycomic, in the ninth 'Developing the Monkey' installment.
: : I would even do bad things to Kate, she's that adorable.
: Now we cut to the meat of your beef.
: : And Amy Smart is sassy and Ever Carradine is very endearing, too. So I'm miffed. I'm gonna go pout now.
: Save the pouting until you've seen the flick.
