Kiera is nothing like Witherspoon. Her, Elijah Wood, Christina Ricci and some others have looks so odd that they actually interfere with the watchability of their movies.

I find Ricci attractive in that odd way...

Plus, she has a helluva (real) rack...

I think it's similar to "spanking the monkey", but I could be wrong.

Didn't she have a reduction a few years ago a la Drew Barrymore?

I like XTina Ricci.

If by reduction, you mean reduced her entire body by starving herself, yes.

here is a very geeky link for the curious

My dad read Lotr to us when we were kids. We got through the first book and the second book and halfway through the third, and then for some reason we stopped. I can't remember why. So I never really knew what happened to Sauruman, and the movie didn't adequately resolve it.

In the book the hobbits return to the Shire to find it overrun by a band evil men (and maybe some orcs? - its been a while), who have essentially enslaved the hobbits, with the complicity of some of the hobbits, including some relatives of Bilbo. The adventuring hobbits, flush with their new found heroism (and weapons), lead a revolt and banish the men. The damage, however, has been done, and the Shire will never quite be the same. The resolution gives the Shire a reason to elevate the adventuring hobbits to leadership roles (because otherwise hobbits just wouldn't care), and resolves the Baggins family conflicts. Note the family conflicts are left out of the movies entirely.

I think Sam's marriage is an important resolution to the story, and done well (what, a minute of screen time?). But Frodo could have gotten on that boat a little quicker.

I'm not 100% sold on this idea. There's something very alien-looking or unborn looking about her. She's got a huge noggin -- I think it's the Mena Suvari large forehead effect and enormous eyes.

Then again, she does come across as having that sort of slutty dirty-girl thing going on, so that might be part of the attraction.

Or that.

Yes. With her giant round head on her newly bony body, Christina Ricci looks disconcertingly like one of those freakish bobble-head dolls. She was much more in proportion when her big head matched her rack matched her hips.

That said, I do like her a lot as an actress. It's her endless photos in Vogue every month that creep me out.

She's not drop-dead said Fred, but she's very good looking. (And I still don't see the issue with her teeth.)

If you've any doubt about how hot Keira is, check out that Pirate flick she did with Johnny Depp. Basically, the otherwise dreadful movie runs solely on her looks and Depp's acting, which is saying a lot, because the thing clocks in at over two hours.

She's really beautiful. What the hell is everyone (or is just Paigow, which perfectly explains the wackjob nitpick analysis) who is criticizing her thinking?

Alex, get a fucking hobby. Shit, chronic masturbation is more productive than this shit...

Any shmuck with a hint of an imagination can torture a piece of art to divine meaning that doesn't exist, but I'd hardly call such idiots - or the waste they spew on paper - "interesting." "Tools" is more appropriate.

Guess what? There is no secret meaning behind 99% of everything you read or see. Chaucer, Shakespeare, Faulkner, James, Yeats, Lenny Bruce, Bobcat Golthwait, Led Zeppelin, the Beatles, Motley Crue, Alice in Wonderland, the Wizard of Oz and just about every other enteratiner/entertainment through history has been exactly what it purposrts to be - ENTERTAINMENT. Some pathetic people can't live with this simplicity, so they find subplots and ejaculate idiot theories about hidden subplots or political undertones. Those people are idiots. Like David Gilmour once said when asked about hidden messages on Dark Side of the Moon, "Its all just fucking pop music."

I just skimmed a bunch of pictures that refuse to post here and her head actually looks too SMALL for her body. But her eyes are huge, which might make her look like a bobble head. I'm pretty sure I'm a sucker for huge almond-shaped eyes...and huge melon-shaped boobs...
