R11 nah, it doesn't really apply to Ben. He won an Oscar early on in 1997 for Good Will Hunting (screenplay), then his acting career really took off, from indie/Kevin Smith movies to big budget blockbusters, and he won another Oscar for Argo (directing), so he does have the talent, probably he should stay behind the camera more.

How did Brie Larson get all that money spent on that 2005 album, a music video and only went on to sell 4,000 copies in the US?

What were the producers thinking?

R18 Dame Helen Mirren had already had a decades-long film career by that point. And while that may not guarantee a part in a film that may be Oscar material, I think it was almost inevitable for her.

How does anyone mistake the ‘have’ (or the ‘ve) in that verb form for ‘of’? How does ‘of’ make any sense as part of a past tense verb?

What’s it like to have such a brain that it never occurs to you to consider such a thing? It must be freeing.

R39, my ex-boyfriend has managed to work the of/‘ve substitution into just about every text he has ever sent me. I don’t think most people’s minds have grammatical categories. Written language is more just sounds and corresponding letters, in which case, “of” makes sense.

What doesn’t make any fucking sense at all is the use of the apostrophe before “of” in the OP. Is there a contraction apostrophe from ‘ve lurking in OP’s mind that transcended phonics and improbably landed with that homonym proposition?

Or just as likely, is OP trying to set off fainting spells in the Oh, Dear crowd? He just milked two paragraphs out of me.
