Dakota Fanning: The Epitome of GREAT acting!

First off, I have to say, I HATE Tom Cruise! However, Steven Spielberg and Dakota Fanning overlapped that hatred and made War of the Worlds very enjoyable for me. She is AMAZING in everything she does. And Speilberg has yet to do a movie I don't like. (Okay, I've never seen "Catch Me if You Can" and have no desire to) but both of them together (Fanning and Spielberg) make up cinematic genius.
Seriously, I cannot get enough of Dakota.

Did you see her in Hide and Seek. OMG. Scary. She shouldn't ever go black.

But, on a side note, maybe this is 'cause she's young, but her teeth are just awful. I'm hoping when they fall out, they'll grow in somewhat more perfect.

She bugs the you-know-what out of me, for some reason...

Seeing her au natural is kinda stupid, like on the MTV movie awards... but she's great in movies.

I love her in Uptown Girls.

she was also good in I AM SAM... when you think she had to appear as the "grown up" at such a young age. Amazing performance!

she showed off her braces on the Leno show the other night. Give her teeth a break, she's 11!!!

FEAR not!

Dakota is taking on the role of Jean Valjean in the upcoming musical-movie of Les Mis.





AFTER this, she will be in a new Broadway musical:

LOL... Maybe a little scary that you drew a child in the role of Idina Menzel- Loud and busted... but the les mis pic is really funny!

YES! I can't wait to see her play Jean in Les Mis.

Won't this be the first time a girl has played Jean. I guess it fits.

If she learns to sing, she will be eligable for Glinda in the Wicked film, opening in 2016

I said that Dakota Fanning would be the greatest Mama Rose ever. Someone needs to make a picture of Dakota as Mama Rose, if at all possible.

I am too lazy to do this, you see.

I think, for such a young little girl, she is an amazing actress. I haven't seen her in much, but I thought her performance in Uptown Girls, for such a fluff and stuff movie, was pretty amazing. She had so much depth for someone so young. I am continually amazed (and a little jealous) every time I watch her.

She is an incredible actress. She has been amazing in every movie I've seen her in. I think my favorite Dakota performance was in "I Am Sam".

I think her acting is awesome, but when I hear her talk(like someone said, MTV movie Awards) she sounds like a 30 year old. She speaks better in front of crowds than most adults I've heard speak. Not saying this is a bad thing, it just seems very affected to me.

She used to freak me out but I have grown to love her!

although I do admit that I too hate her teeth (but I'm sure they will get better...afterall, like others said, she's only 11)

It's sad when a 11 year old girl speaks better than our President.

She has such a bright future, being so talented at such a young age. She is such a great actress.

My girlfriend and I love Dakota.

my question is: does anyone know if her little sister has done/is doing/or plans on doing any acting?

[Forester]

Let's hope her parents and agent steer her away from the vices of being a celebrity.

She was great in I Am Sam and Uptown Girls. I wish she had played Bailey in The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, but I think Jenna Boyd's playing Bailey. When I saw commercials for Hide and Seek Dakota kind of looks like Mara Wilson(Matilda). Has anyone seen Dakota's sister Ellie in any movies? I saw her in Because of Winn-Dixie and she was so adorable! She did a great job too! I hope she does more movies, maybe one with her sister when they're both a little older.
