Happiest of Happies, dear readers! I do hope that you had an amazing NYE and had loads of fun.
Today, for our first FTF post this year, I bring a list of actors and actresses that changed my opinion of them during the last few months. I might have disliked them for their bratty appearance or been indifferent to them overall, but hey, ladies and gents, you can rest assured now that Natasha of LOTCG likes you know (I do know that they can’t sleep at night knowing I disliked them :D)
Angelina Jolie
I mainly hated Jolie because my ex boyfriend loved her (yeah, I was real grown up back then), so when I went to see Maleficent I was like “Okay fine, I will just take a gracious hit for the team”.* The movie isn’t really her best movie, but she is good in it, and I really enjoyed her as the evil woman I had always secretly been fascinated by in the Disney world.
Chloe Grace Moretz
Ah, Chloe Grace. I thought you were such a brat. Well, you probably are, but since I based my perception of you on the character you played in the disastrous Barnabas Collins: Dark Shadows, I do apologise and am sorry. Carrie and If I Stay are both movies that endeared her to me. Her performances are solid and I could find nothing wrong or irritating about it. You go girl!
James McAvoy
I do think Bkushi would defriend me if I ever hated on McAvoy, so I am so relieved that I never did, although I was very indifferent to him. Then, I saw X-Men, and I felt glorious sunshine over my face as I was awakened to his brilliance.
One of my favorite genres are superhero movies, there is no two ways about it. However, save a few exceptions, they are not overly deep and the characters are very one dimensional. James McAvoy takes his Professor and makes you believe that he is who he says he is, not just some oke wanting a paycheck. Anything with his name on is what I will be watching next, because this guy is heading to my favorite actors list so fast it’s not even funny.
Scarlett Johansson
Despite the fact that I can’t ever manage to type her surname correctly, and always have to go back and effing fix it, I realized that Scarlett (note lack of use of damn surname) isn’t nearly as bad or talentless as I always said she was. I really, really liked her kick ass retaliation retribution in Lucy, and her Black Widow in Captain America, Winter Soldier, was better than the annoying Black Widow she sometimes plays.
Shia LaBeouf
What is it with these ridiculous surnames? Anyhow, I read a lot of celebrity news on the internet (as a vice and when I don’t want to work). The Beefster REALLY loves his attention so I felt very MEH about him because I hate attention ho’s. I watched Lawless and was reminded that even though he was a twat and probably a bit of a narcissist, he could act at the end of the day.
What is your opinion about these stars? Do you have anyone else you would like to add to this list? Let me know! 🙂

Chemistry Kidney,
You know I am a major sucker for McAvoy, so I am THRILLED to hear he is climbing your list the way that he is. He is freaking AWESOME and then a bag of chips 😀 😀
Plus two, you know I love Angelina Jolie, so I am glad to see you aren’t hating her because of some oaf with a foot up his ass. Yes, we are so grown up!

As for the Beefster, I know he is a twat in real life but I have always found him a pretty good actor, I like him. You must see him in Fury. Again, impressive as hell!

Shia is very talented.. despite he continuous lack of personal awareness of what he gets up to lately. When he signs on to film, he is probably one the most committed to a role that i see him in.
Agreed 🙂
Have always rated Scarlett (and always misspell her name) but great to see she has expanded her roles.
She was probably teased endlessly at school with such a difficult name…
She is really growing with her roles. enjoying witnessing it!
I can still remember her from Ghost World!
Hmm, I still don’t like Shia, even though he actually is good in Lawless but then again so is Tom Hardy. And Jessica Chastain and Dane DeHaan. And I think they all outshine him. But I’m glad you have changed your opinions of others because they’re all at least good and Jolie and especially McAvoy very talented. McAvoy has always been great. 🙂
I love Lawless s much! everyone in there gave such stunning performances.
I am so happy I discovered McAvoy. Planning to watch a ton of things with him in!
