"If you look and analyze the careers of many, many stars, you'll find that they're mostly sustained by the business," he said. "I'm not going to start naming names of people whose films have not succeeded at the box office, but you'll find there's lots of women and lots of men in the business that the powers that be decide are right for their business, and they'll stand with them for quite a long time."

Right about then was when he decided he would be OK naming a name or two after all.

"OK, something will go wrong, like Jennifer Aniston will have one too many total flops, but she's still a member of that club, and she will still manage to…like a star forming in the universe, things will swirl around her and it will suddenly solidify into another vital tasteless romcom, you know, a little glitter next to the Crab Nebula."

At least her name is still a relevant one. He's not exactly a household name.

Rupert had better watch his step. He'll have Jenny's BFF, Chelsea Handler, calling him vulgar names in her standup act. :lol:

never heard of him.

he has a point about one thing though - Hollywood will always make pointless romantic comedies, no matter how many times they flop.

It's true. And people like Jen Aniston, Katherine Heigl, Kate Hudson, etc. will continue to star in them. They keep flopping yet Hollywood continues to hand these ladies $20M paychecks.

Well, Rupert, the important thing is that you aren't bitter. :rolleyes:

Rupert Everett was the voice of Prince Charming in the Shrek movies. Obviously he's not so charming in real life. :rolleyes:

I think that Madonna movie was called The Next Best Thing, which also co-starred Benjamin Bratt. Never knew he was in Inspector Gadget.

I best remember him as Julia Roberts's little sidekick in My Best Friend's Wedding. If she hadn't won an Oscar, he'd probably be attacking her, too.

That was my favorite movie when it came out. I was 10 at the time if that explains anything but I would still watch it for sentimental reasons.

I happen to like Jennifer and she is going to make movies that she wants to do. She obviously just wants to have fun and that seems to seep through to her choice of roles.

The only thing I've seen Rupert in I've liked is the zombie flick Dellamorte Dellamore(aka Cemetery Man)
