Why I'm not going to be watching Leno for a while

Hmmm. Let me count the ways.

In my humble opinion, I think he's talentless. He only has a couple of facial expressions and he's boring to watch. Yes, he's gorgeous, but pretty does not mean talented. He cast in film after film and he's terrible! I hate it when directors/producers cast actors because of their looks expecting us to find their characters credible and likable just because they are pretty. Bleh. It's like all those talented people making music right now and all the focus lands on Justin Timberlake. How frustrating. There are other actors with depth who are ten times better than he is. I have not seen one of his films where I actually liked him. And he seems like a dunderhead in every interview I have seen him in. Listen to him talk and then listen to, oh say, Gyllenhaal talk. Big difference.

I know, this is sounding very close-minded and opinionated but it's just my thoughts on a dinglecheese actor.

Reese Witherspoon was right to leave him. Phillipe's film may have won the Best Picture Oscar but the Brokeback guy got his woman.
