[365days: Day 14] Movie insanity
So. I thought I basically knew close to nothing about actual movie stars and actors, but apparently that's not true, because after going to The Movie Box's list of last movie trailers, I discovered I recognize at least one --usually more than one-- name in most incoming and currently showing movies :(. Do this mean I've sold my soul to the god of ... I-don't-know-what? Hollywood, maybe? At least, even if the names ring a bell in my brain, I wouldn't recognize some of these faces ...

Yes, I know I'm crazy. Why else would I go over 134 movies' main cast in order to discover how many names I recognize. So, there are 21 movies with no name I could right away say I know; some of them made me doubt, but I didn't include them. Also, I've also seen 2 of these movies: Sherlock Holmes and 2012. Oh, and just FYI: some of these movies might be out of the cinemas for you, but somewhere around the world they still are being projected, or even haven't seen the silver screen.
Also, I cheated on Alvin and the chipmunks. I recognized no name, but know without a doubt that Matthew Gray Gubler (Dr. Spencer Reid in Criminal Minds) is the voice of Simon, so I added him to the cast :P.
