1. The Star Wars Prequels
Well it wasnt going to be anything else, was it? Natalie Portman is nothing but a small fish in George Lucas large pond of cynical filmmaking and its accepting that role for which she is guilty. The Star Wars prequels have been talked to death and to some extent are probably best left out to pasture, but lets just unnecessarily rake over a few graves, one last time (it definitely wont be for the last time). As with previous entries in the sucked list, Portmans role is inconsequential, though this time to the nth degree. Her blue screen play-acting is no better or worse than the rest of them, whether she wanted to be part of a new legacy of Star Wars films or just wanted a nice pay cheque really depends on whether shes a glass half-empty or half-full kind of gal. But really, who remembers the plot of the Star Wars prequels? Ok, now who remembers Natalie Portmans role in them? To answer that question completely from memory, in The Phantom Menace she pretended she wasnt Queen but then revealed she was, God know why. In Attack of the Clones Hayden Christensen floated a some kind of space pear in her direction and in Revenge of the Sith she was sent to a private part of the film, away from all the action in order to give birth to Luke and Leia, she may or may not have died. Apologies if there are any fans out there who like to take these films a little more seriously, but they just dont deserve it, they exist purely to fill George Lucas already substantial pockets, Portman might even tell you that herself. Yes she was young, no she wasnt the worst thing in them (by a long shot), but she is in them, and for that Natalie, and for the heinous crime of getting married, you are not forgiven.Introduction to your list should be at least 150 words.
