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:
- (4.86) - Deadly Blessing (1981)
- (4.81) - Intersection (1994)
- (4.81) - Cold Creek Manor (2003)
- (4.80) - Calendar Girl Murders (1984) (TV)
- (4.72) - Gloria (1999)
- (4.70) - The Specialist (1994)
- (4.66) - Scissors (1991)
- (4.52) - Cold Steel (1987)
- (4.51) - Sliver (1993)
- (4.42) - King Solomon's Mines (1985)
- (4.32) - Action Jackson (1988)
- (4.28) - Where Sleeping Dogs Lie (1992)
- (4.14) - Picking Up the Pieces (2000)
- (3.96) - Sangre y arena (1989)
- (3.95) - Simpatico (1999)
- (3.74) - Allan Quatermain and the Lost City of Gold (1987)
- (3.71) - Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol (1987)
- (3.71) - Basic Instinct 2 (2006)
- (3.21) - Catwoman (2004)

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.
I just ran into Sharon Stone and William Shatner at a Humanitarian Awards event in Palm Springs. I posted some photos and info on my blog at:
