For example, I don’t like Will Ferrell in his typical roles. Oh they just drive me batty.

But. I do love Stranger Than Fiction. It’s such a cozy movie.

    Will Ferrell. He might be the most unpopular actor here? Quite a few mentions.

    He’s the epitome of “cringe comedy”, the comedy where the goal is to make actions and situations more and more outrageously uncomfortable as the story progresses. Can’t stand that style. I really don’t find him funny at all and avoid his films. Exception being Elf, and the only reason why is that the script doesn’t allow him much room to act the way he usually does. He has to expend effort.

    Jim Gaffigan. I honestly don’t see why people find him so funny, maybe his brand of comedy just isn’t for me.

    I can’t stand Eddie Redmaine. I don’t know why, I dislike the lower part of his face a lot, especially his lips. I can’t deny that he’s a pretty good actor tho.

    And all of the Scientology freaks, especially Tom Cruise, who can’t even act. I don’t know how he even got near a set from the beginning.

    Gérard Depardieu is one of the worst representatives of his own species.

    He’s also one of the best actors.

    I’ve always wondered about those brilliant actors being idiots and/or assholes. How can they at the same time show (what I believed to be) such deep understanding of their fellow humans? Or is it just pure mimicry, without any intelligence and empathy?

    A name I haven’t seen in this thread is Owen Wilson. I hate his aloofness and his delivery. When combined with Ben Stiller it’s a force multiplier.

    Tom Cruise - Dudes a freak and a weirdo but Tropic Thunder was funny af.

    Will Smith - After the Oscar’s.

    The rock - Phony and plays the same person all the time.

    milas kunis, scientologist, shilling for masterson and then fleeing to europe with her equally reprehensible husband.

    Chris pratt, gary sinese, both are right wingers,

    forGARY sinese why he was great in the movies he was in, hescurrent virtue signalling for the troops on REDDIT is very cringe, mostly because he started last year around the time when the eleciton/campaigns was in full run.(unlike jon stewart, you only came out recently as a rightie, to shore up the voter base for republicans that the gop would throw under the bus)/. he allegedly left acting because of his sons death, i call bs because he knows he was going to get flak for supporting the GOP/VETS and not denouncing the gop for slashing VA care/bills, and he would likely get washed out of Hollywood eventually. hes using nostalgia as a shield from criticism, and his wierd “larping” for vets.

    chris pratt, himself being a right winger, and supporting is fundie church, and i dont find him too good of actor, such wooden acting and people are defending him somehow? he only has one inflection and expression throughout all the roles he has been in, his acting careers was pure nepotism.

    Rob MAC(originally rob machellenny) og isaip episodes were great, but became extremely pretentious even changing your name, trying to stay in hollywood inner circles, by colluding with questionable people like reynolds, a football star, and also the amount of comestic procedures he has done to make him look 20year old alien.

    Tom Cruise - but damn, his performance in Tropic Thunder is a masterclass.

    The first time I saw the film, I didn’t even recognize that he was in it.

    Jim Carrey, no exceptions. I fucking can’t stand his face.

    Will Ferrell with the exception of Anchorman. He plays the same man-child character in every movie, and he pretty well ruins the Barbie movie for me every fucking time. (Just kidding I love that movie but I really wish he wasn’t in it)
