Katherine Heigl always complaining about the movies she is in, which is why she isn’t in too many these days.

Megan Fox was a hot item in the Transformers movies. Then she called the director a NAZI, and she was written out of the series. She has done some work, but nothing of the caliber of Transformers, which is really saying something.

Some people, after winning the lottery of being picked for a part in a big movie that ten thousand other waitresses in Los Angeles can do just as well, just can't keep their mouth shut and cash the checks. They want to do "ART," but dont realize 99% of acting is just showing up, saying a few lines, cashing the check, and going home. Then maybe , once or twice in a career, achieving "ART."

LOL!

Reminds me of something in Charlton Heston's memoirs. He asked a director, "What's my motivation in this scene?" and the director answered, "To hit your mark and say your line when I say TEN, because we can only afford to shoot this scene once!"
