Actress Naomi Watts has made No. 1 on Forbes list of actresses whose movies give the biggest returns when compared to the salaries they were paid. I don’t go to the movies much, although I do have cable and get DVDs on occasion, so I thought I would compare my viewing habits against Forbes list.

Naomi may be delivering a return of $44 for every movie, but it doesn’t look like she’s making a dime off me. I don’t think I’ve ever seen her in a movie, even on cable. Her IMDB page shows she’s involved in a remake of Alfred Hitchcock’s “The Birds” Original star, Tippi Hedren has voiced her distaste for the project: “To take a work of art like that and try to copy it is like trying to imitate the Mona Lisa.” If I might be so bold as to voice my distaste, I’d say: “Feathered friends flying out of the fireplace freaked me out the first time so I’ll pass.” Sorry Naomi, the big returns on your movie will have to come from somewhere else.
