You don't have to be 'spiritually deprived' to appreciate an actor/actresses talent. "Beg to differ" Most of the Magnificent Talents in the Entertainment Industry are DEAD or have stopped acting for the most part...

Laurence Olivier, Jimmy Stewart, John Wayne, Katherine Hebpurn, Joan Crawford Betty Davis....

What we have today is "Novelty Acts" you don't have to have any talent with "High Tech Special Effects"

What movies do the best? Raw Talent or Special Effects?
SHREK 2 should give you the answer...

People do idololize today's stars because they realize they too proably have no talent and if they look cute enough or trashy enough they might be the next Brittney Spears or Eniem...(Whatever his goofy name is)

Hollywood is not what it started out any longer, frankly it's a Major Bore, why do you think the Computer and Internet Industry does so darn well...)

Let's see, $20.00 a month versus $8.00 a ticket for the movies, or 3.99 to merely wait for it on tape or DVD.

Tsk, tsk, special effects are not always a bad thing, they often compliment good acting/movies.

I don't watch animated movies like Shrek, but I suppose people with small kids might take their children to watch 'animated' movies! lol

Sometimes a movie is JUST A MOVIE and not worshipped.

Is your favorite movie 'Conspiracy Theory'?
