http://testpattern.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/08/12/1259969.aspxOccasionally, I have a moment when an actor I’m unfamiliar with pops off the movie screen. Perhaps that person has been around, maybe in television or in smaller roles, but then that one movie comes along and, suddenly, it’s as if they’re shining moreen-USCommunityServer 2.0 (Build: 60608.1)http://testpattern.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/08/12/1259969.aspx#1261263Tue, 12 Aug 2008 14:23:38 GMT8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1261263Becky, St. Louis, MOI heart Elizabeth Banks! The first time I saw her was in 40-Year-Old Virgin and she was fantastic! http://testpattern.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/08/12/1259969.aspx#1261288Tue, 12 Aug 2008 14:34:07 GMT8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1261288Mike, Holts Summit, MOI love Elizabeth Banks!! &nbsp;She's been in several movies in the past few years (Invincible with Mark Wahlberg). &nbsp;She's a promising actress...and insanely beautiful. &nbsp;I could watch her read a book on screen for two hours and be happy. &nbsp;http://testpattern.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/08/12/1259969.aspx#1261348Tue, 12 Aug 2008 14:51:33 GMT8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1261348Venus Doom, NJI'm waiting for Michael Pitt's blockbuster-leading-man moment in the sun. Christian Bale's turn finally came, after all...http://testpattern.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/08/12/1259969.aspx#1262235Tue, 12 Aug 2008 20:03:16 GMT8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1262235Goode to Go, USAMatthew Goode is a handsome and brilliant actor from across the pond. &nbsp;I first saw him in Chasing Liberty with Mandy Moore, then Imagine Me &amp; You with Piper Perabo and now he has the lead in the upcoming Brideshead Revisited. (Which is getting amazing reviews). &nbsp;His eyes are mesmorizing and I think that, coupled with the accent, are going to leave the American girls wanting more, more, more! The last name isn't ironic, it is dead on.http://testpattern.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/08/12/1259969.aspx#1262357Tue, 12 Aug 2008 20:44:30 GMT8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1262357kaygo, Twin Cities, MN That's Elizabeth Banks in Spiderman as J. Jonah Jameson's secretary, Miss Brant. She's sexy enough for the guys but cheery enough to be a woman's best friend.
