Reducing Franco

I was just perusing my favorite blog and I felt the need to share my own opinion, not so candy-coated... about James Franco.
It is almost time to get cracking on Oscar prediction tracking (speaking of... who is hosting our annual Oscar viewing party this year, I wonder?) and James Franco is going to be all up in our faces come Oscar time, as host and maybe nominee.
I'm afraid I've been swayed in my good opinion of James Franco by a certain cynical gossip blogger, so fair warning, this is what influenced his fall from grace...http://www.laineygossip.com/

At first I didn't want to believe that the ego of James Franco had taken over but this video (start at 20:25) was uncomfortable to watch... and the body language of the other actors around the table says that they were embarrassed for him too. Also, this is just a great video from an acting perspective... getting actors around a table talking about their craft is always fascinating.
And I think Nic and I can at least agree that we heart Colin Firth! Still friends, right?
