Actually you probably have forgotten the movie Swept Away. That was hyped as Guy Ritchie's ode to his wife, and it was a disaster. In reality though, Madonna has been in a ton of movies. Most of her appearances were of a cameo or supporting role variety, but with the exception of Evita, most of the movies she has starred in have been really awful. But most of them were not actually her fault; it was usually a poorly written script, dumb storyline, or mismatched co-stars that tanked her films.

As for Mariah's latest movie, most of the mainstream entertainment media have forgotten that this is an indie film, and part of the reasons for indie films getting their release date pushed back is because they have trouble locating a decent distributor. Slumdog Millionaire had the same issue, and it took a long time after its debut at the Sundance Film Festival to find a distributor who would even book limited screenings. Fortunately, the critics loved the movie, and it slowly but surely built a lot of buzz on its way to winning an Oscar for Best Picture.

I didn't think that 'Glitter' (the movie) was that bad

It wasn't. I actually enjoyed it to an extent

I honestly believe Tommy Mottola had something to do with it's failure

I remember at that time, there were rumors he stole some of her songs and gave them to Jennifer Lopez

remember how he and Sony were hyping up his wife Thalia, saying she was going to be huge? She released 1 song and that was that

This is the film that Janet dropped out of, so with Mariah starring it, it will be just as bad....

I actually liked her in Wisegirls even though she kept dropping her Jersey accent.

With all due respect, are you on drugs? It was plot hole city, not to mention the often absurd leaps in believability (it was a fiction, but no science fiction), terrible character development (if any), the ending...Bad on some many levels! It wasn't just the bad acting (which went all around....Mariah was bad but in comparison to the male lead, she looked like a pro).

I agree

And his "accent" was annoying as fuck

Why does Mariah always get Janet's leftovers?

That's why you're such an inspiration to us all.
