Should Actors be required to Act?

I think you're looking through rose-coloured glasses at the actors of yesteryear, some of the greats had an incredible range, yes... but that's why they're greats. Actors today on the whole are no less capable than those of the past, if anything they're only getting better. I mean, if you wanted to see range of character then look to TV-only actors and the shit they do for a living. Movies allow for typecasting, but on the smaller screen they tend to warp for the roles they do.

i do agree, tho there are other examples of great actors in today's day and age, just as much as there are bad actors from years gone past. the thing is we don't remember the crappy actors from 50 years ago, we just remember the really good ones. the same thing will happen in 50 years we'll know the good ones from this day and age

What would Keanu Reeves do otherwise.

what's wrong with RoboActor 1138?
