These two made me laugh
The cruelest insult of all

Nah this will wound her
Not your fault, it's all Alice's that even filters can't fixaye no more Alice pictures while kids are around!
(he is fine now)
Think she’s now took it of privateWell her twitter my be private, but still a lot of tweets going around
Is there a timestamp on this? If not I'm going to need irrefutable evidence Alice didn't write this retrospectivelyThis is good. The Strange, Sick, Sad Career of Ioan Gruffudd (preppiesoftheapocalypse.blogspot.com)
102 Dalmatians (2000)
Oh, honey, why'd you do it? [IKR]
You were doing so well. First Hornblower and Great Expectations duked it out at the Emmys, with the gold going to Hornblower, then Warriors took home a BAFTA award, then Solomon and Gaenor went and trumped them all by getting an Academy Award nomination. Clearly, you were making your name as a talent to be reckoned with.
And then... and then... 102 Dalmatians, Ioan? Really? That's what you decided to do next?
I know it doesn't pay to be too snobby about prospective employment. Sometimes you have to pay the bills. But I'm still finding it hard to believe this was the best you were offered. [ETA same with his choice of wife]
I'm not judging it unfairly, either. Come on, be honest. It's a terrible, terrible movie. Not terrible in a "well, it's silly, but harmless enough" kind of way, or an "I hate to admit it, but I giggled a couple of times" way, either. No, it's vile.
What was going through your head when you read the script? Granted, at that point you couldn't possibly know the finished product would include Gerard Depardieu wandering around in a fur jockstrap. But I'm betting the running gag about how he pronounces "puppy" as "poopy" in his French accent was in the script, right? What about the part where Glenn Close gets baked into the cake? Or how about that littlest puppy, whose barks get subtitled in baby talk?
You probably have warm fuzzy memories of this film, because you started dating your co-star Alice Evans afterward. [LOL] She's a total knockout, so congratulations on your upcoming nuptials, but... jeez, this film is really, really bad. You know what's the worst part? I don't even like you in it. I know your character is supposed to be naïve and trusting, but honestly, you come across as, well, kind of brain-damaged. That's unkind, I know, and I'm a terrible person for saying it, but it's true. I gave up on you around the time you got on all fours and played tug-of-war with a piece of knotted rope against a bulldog. Using your teeth. And we were barely past the opening credits!
On behalf of the entertainment industry, I'd like to extend a formal apology that you were so ill-used and abused in your Hollywood debut. And honestly, I still don't think we've quite figured out what to do with you. We keep making you do fake American accents and doing horrible things to your hair.
Which reminds me of the one thing that I do genuinely like about 102 Dalmatians: Your hair. Those floppy bangs were a good look for you. Oh, and the shorts that you cheekily paired with knee socks and a parka. Yeah. Those were good, too.
The rest of the movie? Poopy.
I've been watching Joanne Froggatt in the bbc1drama Sherwood and I have to say I'm quite enjoying her character in this.Looks like some decent names there. Joanne Froggatt, Danny Glover, Matthew Fox and plenty of others.
If Alice wrote this, do you think she would s-lag off her biggest movie? Nah, it would be all about how the Oscars strangely missed her performance.Is there a timestamp on this? If not I'm going to need irrefutable evidence Alice didn't write this retrospectively
Did she expect the lawyer to work for free after her money ran out? There is no free lunch in life. Ioan appeared to have bent over backwards to accomodate her, but she chose to be a dick. She could have saved all that if she agreed to the collaborative divorce. She filed the paperwork to withdraw from it. Hoisted by her own petard.The lawyers are all about the money, my friend went through a horrible divorce and the lawyers were there as it went on and on and on until the money ran out, the lawyers disappeared immediately. 4 million dollars later. Leon has found out the prenup is valid and Ioan is as pure as the driven snow, Alice can't pay him ever so he's quit.
I know the tone is quite serious (she's a big dick, bigger than her stbx's) but hoisted by her own petard made me chuckle cause I read it in an Erin from Derry Girls voice.Did she expect the lawyer to work for free after her money ran out?
