She hasn't been A-list as a movie star for the past few years, She's still an A List Celebrity though. -- nm - Remlik Jan 25, 09:22 9
- When she dropped out of Gravity, it nearly killed the movie because the studio thought there wasn't a single actress that audiences would be - Roger More Jan 25, 09:26 2
  - True. I'm not saying she still doesn't have pull, but she's not level she was. -- nm - Remlik Jan 25, 09:30 1
    - "B" or "C-List" is just not something that describes her accurately, though. In any way (yet). -- nm - con_carne Jan 25, 09:34
- She's still A-List actress. Julia Roberts could get almost any project moving forward just by saying she's in. - Will Hunting Jan 25, 09:24 5
  - I think that door is rapidlly closing for her. She took 4 years off to raise a kid (which is cool)....but her audience moved on... - Remlik Jan 25, 09:29 3
    - EPL did 80 million. not a bomb -- nm - dead like pixie Jan 25, 09:46
    - the rom-com she and Tom Hanks are doing could be very telling. -- nm - decline Jan 25, 09:31 1
      - From the IMDB description, it sounds like a rip-off of "Community" -- (link) - amoxy Jan 25, 09:34
  - Yes, she will no longer be A-list when she makes a string of stinkers - con_carne Jan 25, 09:26
Under the Cruz-Bardem-Roberts scenario, Cruz is the almost A-lister. -- nm - Roger More Jan 25, 09:21 10
- That makes sense. I agree with Spawn. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 25, 09:25 9
  - "only does TV cameos" though -- nm - Roger More Jan 25, 09:26 8
    - Ugly Betty. -- nm - Spawn Jan 25, 09:29 3
      - And 30 Rock for a few. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 25, 09:36 2
        
        Sounds like we really mean "guest starring role." Cameos are only for a scene or two. -- nm - con_carne Jan 25, 09:50 1
        
        Abbreviation! -- nm - Spawn Jan 25, 09:55
    - You're reading it wrong...he means to say, she only cameos when she's on tv. - Will Hunting Jan 25, 09:28 3
      - What a weird way to phrase it. Like they need to differentiate her from Tina Fey -- nm - Roger More Jan 25, 09:41 2
        
        Tina is pretty far from A-list. - Spawn Jan 25, 09:42 1
        
        I'd rate her around the same as Cruz (in terms of getting a movie going) but they do very different things -- nm - Roger More Jan 25, 09:54
anyway, the blurb says the second one is A list. -- nm - loosilu Jan 25, 09:21 1
- That's right. Cruz is the almost a-lister, Roberts is the a-lister. The glove fits. -- nm - Mop (214 lbs) Jan 25, 09:24
10? try 20. -- nm - loosilu Jan 25, 09:20
