Also currently doing SWAU (Star Wars Autograph Universe) memorabilia signings: Gal Gadot ($350), Chris Hemsworth ($250) and Bryce Dallas Howard ($100). Recently completed: Idris Elba ($300), Natalie Portman ($550 +), Tom Hiddleston ($345). And a host of other lesser-known celebrities associated with SW/MCU. From what I can tell, Robert Downey, Jr. ($700) is the only one doing it for charity. It is, though? Is Natalie Portman's egotism also out of control? I am very much not into SW/MCU and all that go with them, but there is a market for this stuff. Because of COVID it's being done virtually, but it's the same prices these actors have been charging for years to do signings at conventions. Needless to say, MCU strongly encourages their actors to do these promos as it's pretty integral to the promotion of the MCU movies. Yes, I think all of them are egotistical. I can understand doing it for charity or to support many, but otherwise no, I think it's shitty. YMMV

I think it's greedy and beneath all of them. But Chris Pratt is the only actor being called out (by the UK tabloids) for something most of the MCU actors are also doing and have been doing for years.

I can't stand Pratt, but they all do this.

Chris and Katherine are expecting another baby. Also, he posted about her birthday. I'll check Twitter later to see how they dissect his statement to find all the passive aggressive jabs at his ex-wife and son. Or he's being sarcastic and really thinks his wife is an idiot meant to bring him a beer and a sandwich. It could go either way. This documentary he produced looks really good.

I read the birthday message two or three times to see if I could pick out something that social media could turn into an offense. He called her a wonderful wife, mother, step-mother and life partner. Is that all she is to you, Chris? Someone who exists to be your wife and raise your children? Why isn't she just a wonderful PERSON, Chris? And why is she wearing a one-piece bathing suit in the photo? Do you not allow her to wear two-pieces because of your extremist religious beliefs? And what about the picture where she has her eyes closed? Are you trying to passive-aggressively post a bad photo of your wife to put her down? And the whole post is OBVIOUSLY just a big slam against your ex-wife for NOT being a good life partner or mother. I see you, Chris Pratt!

Also, the article posits that a Chris's position on the "Best Chris/Worst Chris" ladder is inversely proportional to how much he talks, which is why Chris Noth ranks as one of the best. I wasn't aware that Chris Noth is thought of as one of the best Chrises. I well remember how gross, smarmy, and likely problematic Noth was during his SATC heyday. But Buzzfeed is right - he's done himself an enormous favor by keeping quiet and being known almost exclusively for his work. Oh how things have changed since I posted this last November. Pratt is now definitely not "worst Chris" anymore, right? Being a rapist definitely outdoes being vaguely red-statey?

That does look really good. Has anyone seen it yet? My opinion of Chris Pratt has nothing to do with anything beyond the screen. I just find him extremely bland - both his acting and his looks. I tried to watch Guardians of the Galaxy (I've watched at least half of the Marvel movies) and found myself bored whenever it was his character's story arc. I'm sure others find him just grand. To each his own.

That documentary still has Crisp Ratt on it, so I’ll pass.

I liked him as Andy on Parks and Rec but then he lost weight and became annoying.
