I was amused by your comment, Filmgoer. I don't see much cinema but I have read the name in reviews I suppose. Now at least I know what he looks like too.
Who do you rate as worst among the females?
Kevin Costner turns me off totally. So overrated.
Tom Cruise also, especially coupled with all his scientologist propaganda.
I was just thinking about this the other day...
Worst Actors:
Tom Cruise
Steven Segal
David Hasselhoff
Worst Actresses:
Lindsay Lohan
Paris Hilton
Jessica Alba, yes, she's hot as hell, just can't act for a damn
Add to the list any singer that's made it big and decided to get into the movies.
Janet Jackson, Streisand, Jessica Simpson, male singers, etc.
Hayden Christensen ...I tried really but he gets worse with every movie...I had to stop watching Star Wars 2 because his acting was so dire...
Nicholas's Cages hair piece(it gets more and more fake with every movie)
Lindsay Lohan as well(especially in the travesty of a movie called 'I know who killed me' )
i can't stand ben affleck
Hate Russell Crow. Way too full of himself.
A lot of the times she's a good actress, but when Meryl Streep does a role where she has to do an accent, I can't stand her performance, or her assumed accent.
In the category of Worst Male Actor in Hollywood, the nominations are:
(Far, far, far too many to list.)
In the category of Worst Female Actress in Hollywood, the nominations are:
(Again, far too many to list.)
It truly seems that there are NO truly believable actors/actresses in Hollywood any more (although I know that comment will probably spark others to start listing those who ARE.) Most of the "Greats" are either dead or completely overlooked by the studio heads who deem them as being "too old" for anything except maybe, possibly, a cameo.
Now, if we were going to look at Most Under-Used Actors/Actresses in Hollywood, my nomination for the Male category would have to be Jim Carey. He is a B-R-I-L-L-I-A-N-T!!!! actor who has a range so vast that the galaxy seems a bit small to contain it. But, as is most often the case, he has become streotyped as being a "funny man" and is, himself, overlooked when it comes to being concidered for an intense dramatic roll.
For the Most Under-Used Actresses category, I would have to say that this "honor" would have to go to Kirsten Dunst. I mean, c'mon, let's face it she was S-P-E-C-T-A-C-U-L-A-R in "Interview with a Vampire"!!!! She looked soooo sweeeet and innocent but she played Claudia with such fire and intensity that I found it hard to beileve she was just THAT convincing! Of course, now, she'll probably be forever known as Mary Jane Watson-Parker, living out the rest of her acting career waiting to be called and asked if she's still up for doing "Spider-man 20".
The honor for worst actress (the envelope please) Roseanne. Taking top honors in the male catagory (drum roll please) Chevy Chase.
The thing about the Emmy's AND Oscars is that they are handed out by the actor's/actress's peers, not by the public at large. An actor/actress could be very popular among his/her peers, not have acting ability for crap, been able to deliver,essentially, a once-in-a-lifetime performance and---WHAM---they get an award. On the other hand, a relatively unknown actor/actress, who has talent coming out of his/her ears, consistently delivers believable performances time after time and gets---------nothing!
Of course, the public could demonstrate that it is little better in picking out talent; opting to go with the ones who exhibit the most glitz and glam instead of focusing on substance.
Right on, Tag. My point exactly.
How about Ashton Kutcher? He may have been funny on "That 70s Show" but he, in my opinion, is not a very good big screen actor.

You would be here with me.

Just get your things.

He cracked me up in Pulp Fiction. I have a sound bite of his from that movie as my start up on my computer.
