Holy Crap! A Hollywood Actress Who "Gets it"...


My jaw almost dropped when I read this one (courtesty of the Ace of Spades) but actress Scarlett Johansson seems to understand what so many "stars" do not. We pay good (hard-earned, that is) money to be entertained. We don't need to be preached at.

The quote:

"I don't believe movies should deliver messages," says Scarlett Johansson. "After you've paid 10 bucks to see it — 15 bucks with popcorn — you just want to be entertained."
Yes...YES! Exactly! I do NOT care if an actor/actress is the looniest Left-wing moonbat in their private lives. But please, please, please don't shove your opinions in my face just because some dumbass journalist is recording it or writing it down. Maybe Ms. Johansson noticed the reaction to Maggie Glynenhennde...Glynahilla...
Glendynhallen...Maggie the actress's dopey statements and wised up.

Look, I think I speak for a lot of Americans when we say "please entertain (i.e. do your job) us, don't talk down to us". I know it's hard when you have an entourage following you around, kissing your ass and telling you you're the greatest actor since Spencer Tracy but for God's sake - reign in the ego.

You know what? I'm more likely to pay hard-earned bucks to see Scarlett Johansson. She's either smart because she understands the consequences of pissing off her audience or really smart because she does "get it".
