Hmmm. Woody Harrelson... Did he flirt with an expanded A-List in the early to mid 90's.... - Name Withheld By Request Jul 5, 12:54 7
- He had some good roles, but never really opened a movie himself. Also, have we discussed this article on the "stardom" of Ryan Reynolds & Will Smith -- (link) - Roger More Jul 5, 12:59
- I think high B-List... - Mel Profit Jul 5, 12:56
- I don't think anyone really ever came to the point of "Let's pay to see Harrelson" with any type of consistency for that to be an A-List resume. - Will Hunting Jul 5, 12:56
- I think he was a-list. (do we think mcconaughey is?) -- nm - mandy, queen of scots Jul 5, 12:56 3
  - His milkshake is not enough to bring me to the yard. -- nm - Amy Jul 5, 12:58
  - I have him down for one truly A-list role and that was A Time To Kill. After that, even his "bigger" hits were not A-list vehicles or he was.... - Name Withheld By Request Jul 5, 12:57
  - McConaheyhey would be B-List for me with a border of A-List if you guarantee the budget is small. - Will Hunting Jul 5, 12:57

    - [deleted]
    - did they make a mistake? I kind of get that *people* think they might have, but in the eyes of the law, did they? -- nm - mandy, queen of scots Jul 5, 12:53 3
      - question 1: yes. question 2: in that the law is looking for justice I would hope the answer there would be yes also. - dogbert Jul 5, 12:59
      - Doesn't really look like it. -- nm - mara Jul 5, 12:57
      - They can just say that if the burden of proof was different they would have found her guilty but it wasn't prooven beyond a reasonable doubt. -- nm - Dano Jul 5, 12:56
  - Apparently the liason asked when they would come out and they said they come back later we want to be left alone. Then later told her they are leaving -- nm - lileve Jul 5, 12:47

  - Well, wasn't he the man first (and then became the vamp?). I really dig that show :) -- nm - decline Jul 5, 12:48 1
    - Me too. I thought this season was 22 eps, but nope. It's done. Argh. -- nm - Amy Jul 5, 12:53
- F) blockin' up the scenery, breakin' my mind. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Jul 5, 12:45

Mitt Romney: Obama made the economy worse, then he didn't, then he did - Brian Jul 5, 12:32 3
- "It Gets Better" -- nm - Obama 2012 Jul 5, 12:45
- 'worse than it could have been' I'm guessing he means this time, as opposed to 'worse than it was in 2008'. - Dr.Vermin Jul 5, 12:34
- Maverick! -- nm - Max Jul 5, 12:34
your amusing ice cream packaging of the day -- (link) - znufrii Jul 5, 12:31

- john kerry? -- nm - dogbert Jul 5, 12:39
- If I were a reporter, I'd do it. I love flippy flops -- nm - CQ Jul 5, 12:36
- who goes anywhere but the beach in flip flops? -- nm - Danedukenuuk Jul 5, 12:30 10
  - Thank you! People wear them like they're real shoes. I don't need to see your hammer toes people. -- nm - Krusty Jul 5, 12:36 9
    - with socks? thats corny.... - Danedukenuuk Jul 5, 12:37 3
      - With or without. With socks just looks ridiculous. -- nm - Krusty Jul 5, 12:39 2
        
        most people have ugly feet so it's a no-win situation -- nm - Danedukenuuk Jul 5, 12:40 1
        
        Fair enough. :-) -- nm - Krusty Jul 5, 12:43
    - I wear them everywhere. I'll toe jam you upside the head -- nm - CQ Jul 5, 12:37 4
      - :-) You live on the beach and in a beach community. I can't stand seeing people's nasty feet on the train. -- nm - Krusty Jul 5, 12:38

- yes -- nm - Jim Jul 5, 12:34
and it goes without saying that the Kardashian thing is another cultural phenomenon outside of my understanding. -- nm - znufrii Jul 5, 12:24 51
- *Thinks back to when most of ST disagreed with my saying Kim K was A-List." Hahaha. -- nm - MDH Jul 5, 12:26 50
  - You're opening a movie in which Kim Khardashian appears. She is a) the lead b) the plucky best friend c) a self-referencing cameo - Reagen Jul 5, 12:36 35
    - A List doesn't refer to movies nowadays, it means celebs in general. With that I end my discusssion. -- nm - MDH Jul 5, 12:37 34
      - *pats head* -- nm - Spawn Jul 5, 12:45
      - you're right to end your discussion. you're so wrong that your girlfriend is wondering if she can actually marry someone as slow as you -- nm - dogbert Jul 5, 12:45
      - Correct. "outside the movie industry, an "A-list celebrity" simply refers to any person with an admired or desirable social status" -- (link) - Dr.Vermin Jul 5, 12:42 1
        
        Thank you. -- nm - MDH Jul 5, 12:43
      - No, it doesn't. A-List = they are a license to print money in huge quantities. They're the AAA-type bonds that pretty much guarantee money. -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 5, 12:40 5
        
        She made $75M last year. That's a license to print money. -- nm - MDH Jul 5, 12:45 2
        
        No; she isn't an A-List business person...75mil isn't much in that term. She's not A-List in entertainment cuz honestly...Johnny Depp ... Will - Will Hunting Jul 5, 12:48
        
        Johnny Depp made people more than a billion. -- nm - Reagen Jul 5, 12:46
        
        aka Will Smith. [A-list completed] -- nm - William Goldman si Jul 5, 12:41 1
        
        Yep. That's why I laughed at that Blind Item that had Woddy Harrelson as a former A-Lister. -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 5, 12:45
      - No...and even if it this were true, still no regarding her. -- nm - David Jul 5, 12:39
      - oh jesus it does not. -- nm - Reagen Jul 5, 12:38 8
        
        This is clearly an age issue we don't need to get into. -- nm - MDH Jul 5, 12:39 7
        
        We're not even ten years older than you. She's just not. -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 5, 12:41
        
        It is in that you haven't learned the ability to distinguish celebrity from novelty act yet. - David Jul 5, 12:40 4
        
        It's not like you stay at that level forever. She is A-List now, won't be forever, but is currently. -- nm - MDH Jul 5, 12:43 2
        
        she's the media's It Girl. this doesn't equate to A-List. -- nm - Andie Jul 5, 12:59
        
        No. -- nm - David Jul 5, 12:46
        
        I agree with david. -- nm - mandy, queen of scots Jul 5, 12:42
        
        Grandpa got pwned! -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Jul 5, 12:40
      - says who? -- nm - loosilu Jul 5, 12:38 13
        
        Society. The Internet. -- nm - MDH Jul 5, 12:38 12
        
        wiki: "A-list is a term that alludes to major movie stars, and/or the most bankable in the Hollywood film industry." -- (link) - loosilu Jul 5, 12:40 11
        
        Wikipedia: "In popular usage outside the movie industry, an "A-list celebrity" simply refers to any person with an admired or desirable social status. -- nm - mara Jul 5, 12:41 9
        
        popular usage can be flat wrong sometimes. -- nm - loosilu Jul 5, 12:43 4
        
        like, look up the real meaning of nonplussed, and how people use it. -- nm - Reagen Jul 5, 12:45 1
        
        sure. also, Ivy League. -- nm - loosilu Jul 5, 12:46
        
        Not as often as you. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Jul 5, 12:44 1
        
        says the guy who wants to sterilize someone for lying. -- nm - loosilu Jul 5, 12:46
        
        [deleted] 3
        
        Sadly this is the best way to make my point. There are A-List social figures without question. -- nm - MDH Jul 5, 12:44 2
        
        Just like there were AAA-rated junk mortgages. Doesn't mean they're legitimatedly AAA-rated. -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 5, 12:50 1
        
        [deleted]
        
        Yes, people sometimes forget that there is an *actual* list that someone makes. -- nm - Reagen Jul 5, 12:41
  - still isn't. Though she's branded herself well. -- nm - Remlik Jul 5, 12:35
  - She still ain't. -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 5, 12:33
  - Heh - remember that ST has its origins from a movie site, not a celebrity site -- nm - Roger More Jul 5, 12:28 5
    - Side note: I went to "Movies" over the weekend. Ugh, headache. -- nm - MDH Jul 5, 12:29 4
      - I did too. Not pretty. I liquidated my port for the most part after realizing I don't - Krusty Jul 5, 12:30 3
        
        I was finished when they first increased amounts you can hold of one stock. - Diva Jul 5, 12:38 2
        
        I think they did this twice. I'm over it. -- nm - MDH Jul 5, 12:38 1
        
        yeah I think they're up to 100,000 now. -- nm - Diva Jul 5, 12:39
  - oh, we still disagree with you. -- nm - loosilu Jul 5, 12:27 5
    - I don't even know where to begin with the madness of that. -- nm - David Jul 5, 12:33 2
      - "Inexplicable gay icon" != A lister. -- nm - loosilu Jul 5, 12:34 1
        
        (and this was supposed to be under MDH. sorry) -- nm - loosilu Jul 5, 12:35
    - Right. -- nm - Stephen Jul 5, 12:32
    - *shakes head at how truly wrong you are* :-) -- nm - MDH Jul 5, 12:28
maybe it's just the reaaaaally slow acting-type -- nm - prayformojo Jul 5, 12:23 1
- shoulda gone under david's post -- nm - prayformojo Jul 5, 12:23
I'm always a little disappointed when radioactive dye is injected in my body but I don't get superpowers. -- nm - David Jul 5, 12:22 13
- "We forgot to hook up the doll!" -- nm - Inigo Jul 5, 12:29
- you need a spider to do the injection -- nm - Danedukenuuk Jul 5, 12:29
- Your health plan doesn't cover the good stuff, you have to request it and pay a hell of a lot more -- nm - zeitgeist Jul 5, 12:27
- Maybe if you got struck by lightning at the same time, or something. -- nm - mara Jul 5, 12:26
- you did. the power to be super wrong -- nm - moles Jul 5, 12:24
- Skin Deep 2 -- nm - Max Jul 5, 12:24
- Have you ever asked if you could do it while holding a spider or something? -- nm - TFox Jul 5, 12:23 4
  - I told you what Omakase and Bear Witness III are on B2. - the wrong element, bad guy Jul 5, 12:26
  - haha! right at the moment they start to inject it, reach out and swallow a bug -- nm - dogbert Jul 5, 12:26 2
    - preferably not a stink bug. -- nm - loosilu Jul 5, 12:27
    - *laughing* -- nm - Krusty Jul 5, 12:26
- obviously your dna isnt good enough. -- nm - tRuMaN Jul 5, 12:23 1
  - His midichlorian count is too low. -- nm - Stephen Jul 5, 12:35
