A Birthday Gift for bunniewabbit: *g*

Entertainment Weekly has posted its list of Top 30 Actors Under 30, and guess who's in it at #2!

WHY HIM The Lord of the Rings franchise made Wood a megastar, but the actor has used his box office power for good instead of evil in off-beat movies like Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004) and Everything Is Illuminated (2005).

WHAT'S NEXT Wood lends his voice to an upcoming feature-length version of 9 (2005), an award-winning animated short set in a post-apocalyptic world. Why there's not more is beyond us.

WORD.

[bellewood.livejournal.com]

Why there's not more is beyond us.

Yeah, baby.

[baranduin.livejournal.com]

Woo hoo!

Whoah

[westmoon.livejournal.com]

I'm shocked that he's actually number two!

Good for him. :)

And WORD to not understanding why there isn't more - someone please sit that young man down and FORCE him to read this.

[sssneaking.livejournal.com]

I don't think these are actually in any particular order at all.

Still, woohooo!

[romeny.livejournal.com]

It's great seeing him in a list such as this. Whoo Hoo!

[moonagh.livejournal.com]

Always great to hear about him, and yes, why there's not more is beyond me too ...

To be honest, I don't think that this is a ranking and that Elijah being the second pic is meant to say that he's Nr.2...I just understood it to be a compilation of actors under 30 the magazine likes, posted in no special order....There's nothing that indicates that he's Nr.2 or anyone else has a special position and if at all he would be Nr.29 since EW always has their ranking posted in a way that the best comes as last which would make Dan Radcliffe Nr.2, since he's in pic Nr.29...But as said before, I doubt this is a ranking with a special order...

And to be honest, I doubt that they would put Elijah before James McAvoy or Jamie Bell, seeing how they are everybody's (critic's) darling...

Just my opinion and how I understood it, so please don't attack me for it!

Oh, now there's a very cool birthday present. :) I always got the impression that Entertainment Weekly likes him, and it's nice to see it proven here. Why not, indeed! Thanks for posting this!

[nasturtium-leas.livejournal.com]

But er...he has lots more going than 9. He's got OM, Day Zero, The Passenger, of course there was also Bobby, a little Oscar winning toon called Happy Feet, Paris je taimes, all his music stuff, and movie production work and so on and so forth.

Entertainment Weekly should just look in some of their back issues for this stuff. Doh!

Still..cool he made the list!

[frodos-smile.livejournal.com]

This is just totally awesome! Thanks for posting it and giving me a reason to actually open my copy of EW when it arrives this week! :-)

[msilverstar]

Woot! The order doesn't seem like the important thing, but that he's in there at all :-D

[mole-caz.livejournal.com]

I'm delighted he's included at all and that whoever wrote this actually understands Elijah's career development. So many don't to my way of thinking.

[golden-berry.livejournal.com]

Wow. At last, some recognition. WAKE UP, U.S. film distributors! Enough of these straight-to-DVD films!

Well,Elijah Kelly is #30 or #1....another Elijah.
But,I doubt that JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE is #3.
This is not ranking,and Elijah is not #29 or #2 either.

This list didn't have some my favorite Under 30 actors.
But Elijah still in the list.
