#1 She's making a play for the Fahrenheit 911 audience. I think it's a smart move on her part. Niche marketing.

#3 Yeesh. She's just popping off, 'cause Arianna Huffington is using her in some dopey website of "celebrity opinions." Article was too long for me. Better things to do. But for those who want to hear what the Hollywood Elite have to say about it, here ya go: LINK.

Can't wait for the Bloggers to attack these dinks for getting their facts wrong. That'll be entertaining.

#4 The 27-year-old vaulted to stardom after appearing in "Secretary" as a mousy assistant.

Oh. Okay.
I guess the vault to stardom must be shorter then it used to be. A lot shorter.

#7 Given the girth of his gut and equally swollen ego I'd doubt the "casting couch" with the red M&M carries the same meaning as it might with others. She does have her charms (see Secretary) but the recent timid attempt at political punditry cannot be counted among them. Too bad she can't just stick to acting (she has some talent there) and looking nice. Get them off the set with their mouths open and things get silly fast.

#8 I saw an article recently (Instapundit link, perhaps?) that the F911 audience was never very big, and that Mr. Moore was keenly aware of that fact, even as he boasted of his film's popularity. Miss Gyllenhaal is doing her career no favours by explicitely appealing to such a small niche.

#9 Sounds like a perfect match for everyone's favorite idiotarian from Boulder, CO, "Professor" Churchill.

#10 She's an idiot but she's been around doing independent flicks for a long time.
