i thought who gets top billing, how images are used in promotional posters, etc, are all negotiated in the contracts actors sign at the before they agree to the project. so gwyneth knew about this ahead of time.

Probably true. Especially since the "promotional poster" in question is really just the cover of Entertainment Weekly.

Gwenyth was NEVER considered a sex symbol. Age has nothing to do with it, plus bitch is only 36? Damn I thought she was at least 7 years older then that she has AGED BADLY!

^^Apparently a stick up your ass and a holier-than-thou, cold-bitch attitude makes you look at least 5 years older.

True.

But ugly, old Mickey Rourke can be on the front cover. Go figure!

Hollywood is still sexist. I'm offended by the female roles in these blockbuster films. They are total eye candy roles of absolutely no substance at all. All that matters is that the actress looks "hot" in her tight clothes. That's why Scarlett Johansson and Megan Fox get hired despite not being able to act their way out of a paper bag.

yep! And that's why directors who want real actresses hire from the UK, Canada or Aussieland. USA actresses are trained by Playboy, Vogue and Disney to pose and mug - arch their backs and stick their butts out. They can't act (except for Laura Linney.)
