I just watched Beauty and the Beast the other night. I honestly don't think she can stand with the best.

Julia Roberts, she ain't.

You can't really act well when there's just a stuntman in a CGI suit next to you.

Ian McKellan even said as much when filming the Hobbit - it's just not acting, it's a disgrace to acting.

She was never all that talented but, as a child actress, it wasn't that expected. While she's kinda cute, she was a fairly bad casting choice for Belle especially because her singing was pretty weak.

What stuntman was that?

Well, in the case of Beauty and the Beast - it's whoever was wearing the mocap suit, may not have been a Stuntmant

In the case of The Hobbit, it was worse, as he was acting to a completely empty sound stage.

She looks too English to be Belle. It ruined the immersion.

Most of the singing was pretty weak. They gave Gaston to a ****ing tenor.

Really, though, I wouldn't say that her singing was bad, she just sounded so much like herself that it was a bit off-putting. Part of that is a matter of getting better at singing, since a trained singing voice shouldn't sound like the person's speaking voice, but a good chunk of it was also just how thoroughly typecast she is from a decade of being Hermione.

Emma Watson is better than Julia Roberts though. Watson was the best part in the movie by far honestly. The rest of the actors were just ok. Luke Evans as Gaston was pretty awesome though.

So Emma, a Teen's Choice Award winner, is better than Oscar-winning Julia? Seems legit.

Julia has won an Oscar and Golden Globe. Meanwhile Emma has never even been nominated for any serious award. But yeah, Emma is totally better. Totally.

I'd say Emma Watson and Julia Roberts are about equal in terms of acting ability...both decent, but massively overrated. Awards are bought by studios are are meaningless.

julia BOUGHT an oscar and a golden globe though.

if its not people's choice then its really not an award you earn, its an award you pay for.

not that i am a fan of emma OR julia, its just that how many golden globes and oscars you win gives about 0 credence to how good or poor of an actor you are.

While the awards can be political, it's a better indication than nothing.

If she was, she'd have more awards. However, she's still better off than Emma Watson, a mostly-genre actress with no real awards.

In terms of acting, definitely. She's not going to be able to break away from being known as Hermione.

In terms of appearance, of course. She's pushing 30, almost every woman peaks between 20 and 24.
