Natalie Portman bugs me so much...I'm not even sure why. Maybe she came off badly in an interview...or, you know, I totally hate Garden State. But I should hold that against Zach Braff more and I don't(Maybe I pretend it was either that or a film about Giant Doctor, so it looks better by comparison? Although I suspect everyone here would see Dr. Acula.) Well, since I have that thought every time I see a trailer...thought I'd share. Cause I'm a giver..
Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I will always and continually forgive Natalie Portman becauase of Leon. Also, I didn't see all the prequels. But I did see her romcom, so I have suffered. But...Leon!
Also, she's breathtaking.

Thrive to spite them
I just avoid the romcoms and the Star Wars movies (I hate those) because she was brilliant in Leon and also I really enjoyed V for Vendetta.

I cut Natalie Portman a whole lot of slack because she has a Erdős–Bacon number.

Hey. New board.
I like every movie I've ever seen Portman in except the Star Wars films. I haven't seen V for Vendetta or a lot of the ones that look pretty crap (No Strings Attached, The Other Boleyn Girl, Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium) so perhaps I'm just choosing good movies for her. I've never seen a movie that made me think "I didn't know she could do THAT!" the way Rachel's Getting Married did for Anne Hathaway, (I didn't see Black Swan ), but I find her generally quite enjoyable to watch. And look at.

Heh. Am waiting for clip to load but I suspect it's going to make me wish I had The Losers to watch. I do have Transporter 3... ita, have you seen that?

No fair picking my dream to live, though!
