Julia is an untalented skank. I can't think of ONE movie the b-tch ever did that I ever enjoyed.

Doesn't this guy sound like one of the Jewlambosians from South Park?

I have only enjoyed Julia Roberts in one movie, The Pelican Brief. But now, I can't even watch that one anymore. Let me explain.

I didn't see Pelican in the theater, I saw it on CBS a couple of years later. I didn't watch it from the beginning, I flipped over to it from a sitcom, and watched the last 90 minutes. I was never impressed with her as an actress before then, and haven't been since. Denzel Washington was excellent, as was the finished product. I was pleased that they didn't muddle the intense and deadly situation with a silly romance. Later, I discovered that in the original Grisham novel, there was a romance, and that some in Leftywood were annoyed that Roberts and Washington didn't fog up the screen.

So...if it's so good, why can't I watch it? Well, the movie begins with Roberts, as a law student, listening to her prof speak about the Supreme Court's 1986 decision in Bowers vs. Hardwick, which upheld the constitutionality of Georgia's anti-sodomy law. Roberts, smug and superior, lets him finish, and then says, "Well, the Supreme Court is wrong!"

Ewww. I had taped Pelican off cable in hopes of seeing the whole thing for the first time, and I still haven't. It's going to harder to take since Lawrence v. Texas.

I wonder if Sandra Day O'Connor is a Julia Roberts fan.
