For comments….all you need is a name and a comment….please ignore the rest.
I got your e-mail Sunshine625…I am sorry you did not like The Box…but I am sure Ms. Diaz appreciates the support. I think she will redeem herself in Gambit….I image previews should be coming out soon. Gotta love free movies…..so at least The Box was free.
Bad Teacher was interesting just because it’s something that she doesn’t do. While it was cool at first to see her as a foul mouthed gold digger, it only lasted for so long.
Thanks Nickalooch for the mini review of Bad Teacher, I have not seen it yet, but I hear there is a car washing scene that is worth the price of admission.
I think I have been in love with her since The Mask, hard to believe that she started acting lessons after getting that part. I have seen everyone of her movies except Last Supper and Bad Teacher. Great movie page
Nice job Cogerson, my favorite two Cameron Diaz movies are She’s The One and Vanilla Sky. She is always sexy(well maybe not in John Malkovich) thanks for picking somebody that I have seen many of her movies. Voted up.
Thanks hinton1966 for bringing up the movie She’s The One…I agree 100% it is a great movie….what a cast of pretty women..Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Aniston and Amanda Peet….and the great character from Cheers, John Mahoney steals the movie. I am not much of a fan of Vanilla Sky, although I did like Kurt Russell in that movie…thanks for stopping by.
Yes the box was an interesting movie, quite creative too. I do like Cameron Diaz. In ‘The Holiday’ the chemistry was great between Cameron Diaz and Jude Law, but it was missing between Jack Black and Kate Winslet. Cameron Dias is certainly A list and worth paying to see. Cheers
Hey attemtedhumour…as always thanks for stopping by and checking out my Diaz hub. The Box has been mentioned as a good movie by many people, along with some people that did not like…I guess I will have to check it out to see which side of the fence I fall into. As for The Holiday I was pleasantly surprised how much I liked that movie after my wife made me watch it….lol. Thanks again for the comments
