Talk:Ashley Judd

Level of stardom
I am removing this:
 * "...is one of the most bankable actresses working today"

Not even close, in my opinion. Well, it's a good thing that opinion doesn't inform our article content. If there's any independent authority who maintains such a list, let's cite it before restoring this... opinion. I'm not currently agitating for this in any other articles with similar claims, only the Ashley Judd's. I mean, I think it's a laughable statement. I don't say that as any reflection upon her talent, looks, or anything other than her star status. Who are the "Most Bankable", anyway? The Top 5? The Top 50? The Top 500? --TribbleFurSuit 02:40, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I agree with your removal, however, since you asked, the most bankable actors currently are Jim Carrey (yes, even with The Number 23), George Clooney, Russell Crowe, Tom Cruise, Matt Damon, Johnny Depp, Leonardo DiCaprio, Will Ferrell, Tom Hanks, Samuel L. Jackson, Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Keanu Reeves, Julia Roberts, Adam Sandler, Will Smith, Ben Stiller, and Denzel Washington. Of that list, Will Smith is the hands down most bankable star (his movies have an opening gross average of $38 million and a total gross average of $136 million). Ashley Judd is nowhere near that: she only has an average opening gross of $11.5 million and an average total gross of $34.2 million. Hell, the least bankable actors on this list (Crowe and Denzel) each have an average total gross of $44 million. --From Andoria with Love 03:27, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
