Sharon Stone: Please Stop Acting

Sharon Stone won the infamous "Razzie" award for worst actress this weekend, and there's good reason -- no legitimate movie star has ever been in a worse string of movies than this no-talent nut job.

On the Internet Movie Database, each movie gets a ranking based off user reviews. It's not perfect, but gives an idea. It breaks down like this:

8.0 or above: all-time great
7-8: pretty damn good
6-7: good
5-6: subpar
under 5.0: terrible.

Here's how Sharon Stone's career breaks down:


8.0+ -- None

7-8.0 -- Six movies
6-7 -- Seven movies
5-6 -- 15 movies
under 5 -- 19 movies

These numbers are unheard of. I looked at a bunch of other movie stars, and no one even came close to her in terms of total ineptitude.

For instance, Edward Norton has NEVER been in a movie with a rating of less than 6.0 (18 total movies), while Stone has managed to be in THIRTY-FUCKIN'-FOUR of them, including 19 total bombs of 5.0 and under.


How can you make 19 total bombs and still get more roles? If you were wondering, here they are:
  1. (4.86) - Deadly Blessing (1981)
  2. (4.81) - Intersection (1994)
  3. (4.81) - Cold Creek Manor (2003)
  4. (4.80) - Calendar Girl Murders (1984) (TV)
  5. (4.72) - Gloria (1999)
  6. (4.70) - The Specialist (1994)
  7. (4.66) - Scissors (1991)
  8. (4.52) - Cold Steel (1987)
  9. (4.51) - Sliver (1993)
  10. (4.42) - King Solomon's Mines (1985)
  11. (4.32) - Action Jackson (1988)
  12. (4.28) - Where Sleeping Dogs Lie (1992)
  13. (4.14) - Picking Up the Pieces (2000)
  14. (3.96) - Sangre y arena (1989)
  15. (3.95) - Simpatico (1999)
  16. (3.74) - Allan Quatermain and the Lost City of Gold (1987)
  17. (3.71) - Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol (1987)
  18. (3.71) - Basic Instinct 2 (2006)
  19. (3.21) - Catwoman (2004)
She has to be the worst major actress in the history of movies. That is all.

The more I look at that picture, the harder it is for me to care about her acting. :D

You seem to forget Sly Stallone who has 19 under 5; 17 in the 5-6 range; 9 in the 6-7 range; 4 in the 7-8 range with ZERO (not even Rocky 1!) in the 8+ range.
