Well, let's see, Papasmurf. I've checked the comments and you criticized three, thereby criticizing the opinion of the person that entered them here: a guest for adding Don Johnson, me for adding Richard Chamberlain, and Checkmate for adding Katherine Hepburn. You're not grinding an axe? Give me a break!!

Come to think about it, if I had another account I sure wouldn't bother wasting my votes to lower Matt Damon, he's already staying low. I vote in a great many lists, and they seem to limit your time/votes.
Added 14 years ago by pandora, 0 points
I didn't know a person could have more than one account. Thanks for the suggestion!
Added 14 years ago by pandora, 0 points
The fact that so many have voted this actor so low is perhaps an indication they have taken your opinion with a grain of salt???

I checked with an expert I happen to have handy, and I'm not wrong. You made a direct reference to an entry by James Dean that had my name on it. Your reading comprehension REALLY needs some work! I see you haven't made any friends on the list of best women singers either.

I made no criticism of Heath Ledger. I merely provided some interesting information about James Dean that most people probably didn't know. What's your problem???
Added 14 years ago by pandora, 0 points
I always thought this young man was a talented actor, but he raised it to such another level as the Joker that I doubt anyone will ever be able to play that role again. An outstanding performance and well deserving of the Oscar he received.....RIP....

I hadn't heard about that...pretty funny. I'm trying to picture it, but I'm at a loss on this one. Considering how small gerbils are? Surely he wasn't sober at the time??? Well, at least one can say he's "supposedly" inventive. Maybe he just wrapped it around him to feel the fur...??? One can assume he was bitten. Can you see him explaining it to the doctor?
