Monday, October 24, 2005 Dakota Fanning does number 2 POST A COMMENT Here's the thing, I don't have a problem with "overly cute child actors." Hollywood execs this weekend are scratching their heads wondering why Dakota Fanning's new film, "Dreamer," could not draw families to the movies -- coming in at number two (with a disappointing $9 million at the box office). Somebody out in Hollywood must've sent a memo to every movie studios that Fanning is the "it" child star of the moment, and all kid roles must be given to her. Find a new kid. Well, here's my memo (feel free to take notes): enough of the same crap! Please don't hire the same child actor to star in every movie to play the same exact role. Try something new. Here's a new buzz word: "original casting," and while you're at it try "original stories" (no more old TV shows remade into big budget films).
