We're trying to ignore him until he disappears, I think.Daystar Clarion said:Nobody has said Shia Lebeouf yet?
Damn guys, I thought you were better than this...
Jack Black was excellent in Bernie - best closeted homosexual I've seen on screen (haven't seen J. Edgar yet).TheBobmus said:Jack Black and Eddie Murphy, as a rule. There are exceptions in their older work, but today all their stuff feels tired and unfunny.
For the ladies it's Sarah Jessica Parker.
Edit: Also there's the obvious Taylor Lautner, who has the acting ability of a Starfish.
Out of curiosity, what is it you like about Dane Cook's comedy? I think he is a blight on comedy (along with Tim and Eric).Tartarga said:Male- Dane Cook.
I like him as a comedian but as an actor he and his movies need to be thrown off a mountain. I'm looking at you Good Luck Chuck. Waiting was the only thing that's decent, and maybe Employee of the Month on a good day.
Female- Sandra Bullock.
I can't stand her, not one bit. Everything she's in just makes me want to tear my own face off. Specifically All About Steve. Fuck you Bullock, I want that two hours back.
I quite liked him in The Tudors. Assuming we're talking about the same person.Wayne Insane said:Does Sam Neil still work?
Coz I fucking hate Sam Neil
I can see you know absolutely nothing of movies and acting. I can somewhat agree on Sharon Stone, but Ray Liotta and Brad Pitt are great actors.saoirse13 said:Ray Liotta had literally only one mvie that his acting wasn't complete crap in and that was Goodfella's But granted that was probably because DeNiro and Pesci made the movie great.
Sharon Stone is a talentless annoying woman. And pretty much based the acting career on playing sluts. (sorry just my opinion)
Brad Pitt, god all that man ever does in movies is eat.
So playing the same shell character with just a few things added here or there to make the character "different" makes him a good actor. Nice to know.DevilWithaHalo said:I would have happily voted for DiCaprio pre Departed. But lately he's really grown into his own.

Thats the thing: the worst actor working today.axlryder said:Kevin Spacey and John Cusack? Harsh. John Cusack is a weird one though. He's practically never won a significant award, but he's played leading man in a lot of good films. I think it's because, unlike Labeouf or Worthington, he doesn't really get in the movie's way. He has a decent on screen presence and can carry emotional tension well, but doesn't really steal the scenes that he's in. I liked 1408 and Grosse Point Blank (his performances included) way too much to call him a bad actor though.8-Bit_Jack said:That is all he needs to playHardkorSB said:Vin Diesel?
I mean, the guy can only play 1 character - Vin Diesel.
Also, he can actually act. But no one pays him if he does. Fo realzies
I'm gonna go with... John Cusack, or that guy who hasn't actually acted in any film he's been paid to act in since American Beauty. The dad.
Fuck that guy
Kevin Spacey has played in a lot of mediocre movies recently, but I think he's proved his acting chops too many times to really be called bad. Besides, I think it's obvious he can still act when you compares his performances in films like Margin Call, Men Who Stare at Goats and Horrible Bosses, IMO.
Right, but Men Who Stare at Goats, Horrible Bosses and Margin Call are all very recent films, and Spacey turned out pretty good performances is those. John Cusack has also recently played in a few good movies, 1408, Hot Tub Time machine, Joe Strummer and I think The Raven is grossly underrated. It's not great, but it's deserves a better average score than what it got. More to the point, even their "bad" performances are really just okay. They're not Kristen Steward or Megan Fox bad. I think the exceptions might be War inc. and Father of Invention, which really were extremely shitty movies, but that's just one film for each of them and I mostly blame the script and screenplay for Father of Invention.8-Bit_Jack said:Thats the thing: the worst actor working today.axlryder said:Kevin Spacey and John Cusack?

He WAS good. Even Cusack has made good films. But now, they make the WORST actors... Lebouf at least is TRYING. Spacey and cusack have consistently turned out worse performances than "bad" actors, and did it by not giving a fuck. This makes them all the worse in my opinion
