Cuba Gooding Jr's agent sets him up with Daddy Day Camp. That's a huge shame...

Cuba Gooding is actually a good actor in my mind who's fallen on hard (extremely hard) times. Now I just feel sorry for the man.

Well, he's got a supporting role coming up in the award-worthy-looking American Gangster in November. This is certainly a huuuuuuuge step up for him.

I don't think we can call License to Wed, a true flop...not sure what the budget was for the movie, but I can't imagine it was some outrageous figure. As of now, it's made close to $40 million, and let's face it, considering it's widest release was under 2200 screens, into the teeth of this summer movie season, than I have to say that's a pretty good job on the movie's part. Was it a great movie? Nope...but it wasn't a flop either. It'll finish somewhere around $60 million for the summer, and I'd be willing to bet that it'll do a decent overseas run, and have a strong rental/sales run too...the movie will make a tidy profit for its investors.

As for Rosario Dawson being on this list...all I can say is that it may be true, that she hasn't quite broken out yet, I believe she's been steadily building momentum. Her next feature due out in the fall, Killshot should help her...I thought she was terrific in A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints...and when they turn her comic book, O.C.T. into a movie, it will probably end up being the big breakout movie of her career...

IMO, Cuba is definitely the guy in need of the biggest "Save" in terms of career...behind him you could throw in the likes of Thomas Jane, Vin Diesel, and Alicia Silverstone...Jane is appearing with Rosario Dawson, Mickey Rourke, Diane Lane, and Joseph Gordon Levitt in Killshot, so maybe he can do something quickly to flip his career. Vin has a lot riding on Babylon A.D., and if it flops, his Hannibal project may be in jeopardy, and his career may be headed for Straight to DVD. Alicia Silverstone, well let's face it, her and Chris O'Donnell never did truly recover from Batman & Robin, did they?

Dude, learn how to spell. You make a good point in your post, but there are so many mistakes in it that it's distracting.

Damn Joel Schumacher. 


Tis true...Joel almost single handedly destroyed the careers of Chris and Alicia in Batman & Robin and quite possibly Jim Carrey in The Number 23. That's pretty impressive in and of itself, when you really think about it...

Joel Schumacher...career killer.

Emmy Rossum stopped taking on new movies to go to College... She's currently a student at Columbia University majoring in Art Hisorty.

Halle Berry. Since the X-Men trilogy and you could even throw in Gothica, she hasn't done anything. "Robots" didn't help her nor did "Perfect Stranger". Let's see how she does in 2008 when she appears in 4 new movies.

Halle Berry. Seriously. Pancakes. Come on.
If your looking for "hot" actresses that have no limits. Watch Anjelina Jolie, Kate beckinsale, or even Hollowman. Rhona Mitra. Much better than halle berry.
Besides. Billy bob thorton. You people disgust me. Go get some cheap porn if your that desperate.

Anyways. Amanda peet I would have to say needs the new agent. Shes the only one with talent that should be in more movies than she is.
Robin Williams is doing just fine. I don't guess any of you actually saw license to wed. I thought it was a really good comedy in true Williams style. And if you really think he's losing his touch. Watch a preview for august rush. Other than the soul patch it looks really good. And coming from someone who generally doesn't like those kinds of movies. I would think that says alot.

As for Cuba. He doesn't need a new agent. He needs a new frickin talent coach. if those exist. which would be really sad. anyways. If anything he should steer away from the comedies and do more dramas cause thats the only thing he's half decent at. Other than Radio. How hard is it to play a tard. No offense to the mentally handicapped. I love those guys. But seriously. Was it really that spectacular of a performance.

One more thing. After catwoman. Halle Berry should've crawled in a whole and died. Her acting is way overated too.

One One more thing. Watch clerks two. Rosario was amazing in that movie as was everyone else. If your a Kevin Smith fan and you haven't seen this movie yet. You should be buried alive. Along with Cuba and Halle.
