holy monkeys. I must have been living in a cave as I did not know there was a Clerks sequel coming out.

I shall now rejoice.

I think Rosario was great, and I wish her a long, successful career. But, I'm also a little disappointed, in the sense that I wish the others were getting more recognition out of this as well. They've paid their dues, too.

and Emcee, I didn't say they shouldn', I'm just saying their agents/managers/publicists aren't working as hard for them as they could be.

I know. re: RENT hit The Must List! Well, someone did right by IMDB for a few days, anyway.

Rosario already had 6, count 'em 6 films lined up and this was all done *while* she was filming RENT.
She's very much in-demand.
She's currently filming a psychological thriller she's producing entitled DESCENT.
She's also a great friend. She cast Tracie Thoms and Wilson Jermaine Heredia in the movie as well.

yay for Tracie and Wilson getting some more work! Wilson especially, he's so talented yet seems to get kind of overlooked sometimes.

Wilson has 2 movies in post-production right now, he's not exactly slacking.

I think blaming the other actors' publicists/managers/agents/whoever is hardly the problem. Rosario has a more established career in film, while- with the exception of Taye- the others have really only had bit parts here and there. It's much easier for Rosario to get publicity because of that. Major national magazines don't give their covers to just anybody.

It all goes back the whole Hollywood hierarchy, where Broadway actors (regardless how successful they are) rank just above circus clowns. Do I need to bring up Tom Cruise's assessment of Brooke Shields's career since she started doing stagework?
