Talk:WAMPAS Baby Stars

message: The article mentions Wampas babies who became famous movie stars, but fails to mention Colleen Moore?  Moore was the #1 box office attraction of 1926.  In 1923 and from 1925 to 1931 Moore was one of the top ten box office actors in the country according to the Quigley Box office polls.  Moore was as big a star as Bow. Bessie Love was nominated for Best Actress in a Leading Role.  Laura La Plante headlined ‘Showboat’ and was a huge box office draw from 1927 to 1929.  
1928’s Sally Eilers was selected the 17th highest box office draw in 1932, ranking just above Marlene Dietrich in Dietrich’s peak year of success. Surely, Eilers is notable.  Helen Twelvetrees also became a star (Millie) and starred opposite Robert Young, John Barrymore, Maurice Chevalier, Spencer Tracey, and Ricardo Cortez.  But Joan Blondell, who achieved B-list status gets a mention for the success stories over these women were above-the-title A-listers?  Fay Wray, the star of King-Kong should be mentioned. Lila Lee became a major star in the twenties after starring in ‘Blood and Sand’ with Rudolph Valentino. 
Mary Philbin (1922) starred in ‘The Phantom of the Opera’ opposite Lon Chaney and in ‘The Man Who Laughs’ opposite Conrad Veidt.  In 1928 she starred opposite John Barrymore in D.W. Griffith’s ‘Drums of Love.’ 
Patsy Ruth Miller starred as Esmeralda in ‘The Hunchback of Norte Dame’ and went on to become a film star, working with Ernst Lubitsch. She was a leading lady until her retirement in 1931.  
Actress Evelyn Brent starred in many successful films in the 1920s, collaborating with director Josef Von Sternberg in the huge hit ‘The Last Command’ and starring opposite William Powell in multiple films.  
Marian Nixon starred as Rebecca in ‘Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm’ and was a b-lister for the early thirties.  Further, Sally O’Neill starred in several films. I need to look into some others further.  But several more, like Rochelle Hudson, are likely to be worth mentioning as well.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.235.234.53 (talk) 02:09, 17 May 2022 (UTC)

message: Any reason why the text says there were no 'stars' in 1931 then goes on to list them?
:Looks like a typo to me.  Should be 1930.  I'll fix it.   Rossrs 12:55, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Surviving Babies

message: Not sure why this article says there were no WAMPAS Stars after 1934.  There was a 1935 edition (possibly the last), which named Olympe Bradne, Betty Rhodes, Marsha Hunt, Frances Farmer, Eleanor Whitney, Betty Burgess and Rosalind Keith.  As of September 25, 2012, Marsha Hunt is still alive, making the second section incorrect also.  I'll wait a day or two to see if anyone has comments, otherwise I'll edit the article.  98.232.135.153 (talk) 14:01, 25 September 2012 (UTC)
