The more I read about her, she is a real enviro-whacko.

She needs some help, seriously. How the hell can Cameron not notice that ? I’d be horrified if my wife looked like that. She was slender to begin with, but she’s looking worse than Karen Carpenter before her passing. Suffering from anorexia at 48 has got to be straining the hell out of her heart.

Linda Hamilton & James Cameron

While he was making Titanic, and living with Linda, he fell for Suzy Amis, who had a small part in the movie. Later, torn between the two, he left Amis, went back to Hamilton and married her.

The marriage lasted just eight months before he went back to Amis; she is still with him and they have a son and two daughters.

It’s a fact that Cameron himself has an extraordinary capacity for remaining on good terms with his ex-wives. There are still family Christmases with Cameron at Linda’s Malibu home where all the ex-wives and extra children gather.

Does Suzy cope well with this? Linda, anxious not to be indiscreet but irreverent enough to say it anyway, silently mouths a big ‘no-no’ and indicates that Suzy clearly dislikes her.

‘But she doesn’t have the option of not having me in her life, so we all have to manage,’ she says, her voice rising in passion.

I agree... she's appallingly skinny. As you said, how can her own husband not notice? Maybe the media buzz over her sad appearance tonight will get friends and family mobilized to get her some help...

Seems like a requirement in order to live and/or work in Hollyweird...

I don't think I have seen any complete Terminator movie. When I rented it I was ridiculously busy as usual, so only watched parts of it.

Then I tried watching the entire full length movie again and fell asleep.

What I did see though was an action packed Sci-Fi scary movie.

Linda Hamilton is a good actress in an understated sort of way. I watched another one of her movies this past Christmas. It was excellent. It's based on a real life story of a German woman during WWII who was trying to escape Germany with her son.

She had moved to a house with her young son close enough to the border and in hopes of slipping across the border undetected. American troops with a wounded soldier arrived, followed by German troops. It was a good movie. Silent Night

“It was terrible on every level. I wasn’t ready, he wasn’t ready. He was terribly insecure that I was going to ruin it for him somehow, which didn’t make sense since I am an actress in my own right and had been in front of the camera. It was dreadful,” she said.

“Jimbo gave me a big diamond but our marriage was all of nine months, the ring meant nothing to me and I gave it away.”

Hamilton said she hated accompanying her husband to awards ceremonies because their relationship was falling apart behind the scenes.

In an interview with The Lady magazine, the actress claimed: “The parading around, the lunches, the stress of being with Jim during the Titanic days - for years I could barely get make-up on, I was shaking so hard, because every damn award show we had was terrible.”

There will be some horrible Palin jokes... How I hope there won’t be, though.

I missed just about everything up to about 10pm ET. Were there any Palin jokes?

Hard to believe she’s only two years older than Sandra Bullock.

Oh good to hear you saw it and glad to hear you agree it’s a good movie! I saw it broadcast on a local religion channel and loved it. The actress was Linda Hamilton. She was amazing in that role, imho.

I didn’t recognize her.
I don’t pay much attention unless I know the actors/actresses ahead of time.

No, I am happy to report that there were no Palin jokes!! Somehow there were NO anti-conservative jokes at all!!

The only thing political was Mo’Nique acting like black women have come a long way, baby, which is not so true any more. it certainly was once, but I do not think black women are being held back by anything white at this point in time. (They are held back MORE by other blacks scorning them for “acting white” if they try anything remotely like achievement.)

She’s still acting. According to IMDB she is in a new new movie which right now is in post production. If the stories about her $50 million dollar divorce settlement with Cameron are true, she probably is not working for the money. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000157/
