Title: Worst Actors/Actresses!
Description: who can't you stand on screen?
SuperBRAT - August 2, 2007 11:00 AM (GMT)
he number of films I turn off cos they have thespians I can't stad in them is quite high! Then again Hollywood does churn out the same old actors in the same old films :rolleyes:
Who annoys you, ie their becuase their acting is dire or you just can't stand them?
Here's some of mine
Richard Gere - a piece of wood has more expression, and he ruined the Mothman Prophecies by being unable to appear scared! roflmao Not a great classic actor, seems to be cast on looks (I don't see that either) as most are but Pacino and De Niro are good looking and they can act!
Will Smith - not saying he can't act, he just annoys me - he's such a cocky arrogant fellow and will probably be president of the USA one day. :rolleyes:
Sean Connery - OK so he played a good James Bond, but he is hardly the Marlon Brando of his generation and that embarrassing Russain spoken with a Scottish accent in the Hunt for Red October did it for me. Comedy, but he's not supposed to be funny! :D
Julia Roberts - overrated (although she was good in Erren Brokovich) an doften miscast (ege Mary Reilly). Highly annoying gormless expression, and anythign with her and Gere together - pulease! roflmao
Michelle Pfeiffer - can't stand the woman, come accross as such a wimp. And that movie where she was a teacher in a rough urban black school (video ofr Collio's gangsters paradise) was just dire! Yeah like she could command their attention! :D
Jennifer Anniston - can't be doing with that mousey face, that wholesome girl she plays in rom coms, and for a comedy actress she is nto funny. And the silly woman blew it with Brad Pitt, what more can I say? roflmao
Go on, spout off about those that sour your silver screen, it's only a bit of fun :D

I'm sure there's loads who i don't like, but these spring to mind:
Orlando Bloom - my God, that man has 1 facial expression for every situation, which was great in LOTR 'cos he was an elf......but, seriously. Yes, i know he's pretty. and i know all the little girlies fancy him, but he's so damn WET! Hence why i've called him Orlando Floom for years......
Tom Cruise - bloody scientologist, ranting about psychiatry...... the man's a raving moron, and i refuse to see his films on the basis.....
Any of these singer-turned-actress-types: Jessica Simpson is one that springs to mind. oh, and lindsay lohan - although i'm not sure if she's an actress or just a professional drunk....... :whistle:

I've never bene a Cruise fan but I think he is a reasonable actor. Bloody wierdo though with all that Scientology shit :wacko:
OMG how di dI forget Cameron Diaz? How annoying is she? And every magazine I browse in doctor's surgeries seems to have phtos of her without make - covered in acne, she doesn't half trowel it on. And those pictures of hner bunions! At her age? Wear some shoes that fit you bimbo! roflmao

Worst Actors:
Bruce Willis- If it's not an action film, he's as much use as a sausage at a Bar Mitzvah roflmao Even in the action films he's as wooden as hell!
Orlando Bloom- Stale beyond belief in POC trilogy. His vacancy worked in LOTR, but away from the fantasy he's just well...... crap roflmao
Samuel L Jackson- Normally i'm a fan, but has become a huge self-parody of late( eg Snakes on a Plane) :rolleyes:
Actresses:
Angelina Jolie- Hugely overated( her only decent film was Girl interupted), and her Tomb Raider films were scrapong the barrel big-time. Only in people's favour due to the Brad pitt association.
Rachel Weiz- Plays the same part in every goddamn film- Mousy, british woman who is always polite and well-spoken- :blah:
Lindsay Lohan- Good god. Cant act, sing, drive now it seems, to save her life :rolleyes: roflmao
vivahate - August 2, 2007 02:04 PM (GMT)
keanu reeves has always been a terrible 'actor' :D
and i might as well mention madonna before someone else does :rolleyes:

I hate Bruce Willis too. And his useless sourfaced wife or ex-wife? Demi Moore. That film with Robert Redford - Indecent Propsal - was just terrible. And in the end you did nto care what happened to that money grabbing couple roflmao
I have no tseem Orlando Bloom films nor Rachel Weiz.
Angelina Jolie - well would I really watch Tombraider? You are right she is onyl huge co sof Brad Pitt if you ask me.
Lindsay Lohan - doe sshe really act? She seems to be drunk or slapping it off in gossip magazines. Never heard of her before that. :whistle:
Samuel L Jackson wants shooting for becomign such a parody as you say. He was good year sago, but I think he's overrated now and tradign on hsi supposed coolness, which i don't get. It's a few years since Pulp Fiction love roflmao

I'm not letting Keanu in here becuase he's lovely - OK? roflmao
I knwo what you mean, he is kind fo funny though in some roles. My friend is big on films and actign herself, she has seen him in some stuff and says he was totalyl different and quite good. :shrug:
Point Break is good - Keanu in a surf suit :D Speed is a great adventure movie (and I hate them flims normally) cos it is funny. Keanu does sound gormless when he speaks I guess, bless. :wub:

he was good in 'parenthood'

okay, I am going to get shot down in flames here - but I cant stand Michael Caine....
'youre only supposed to blow the bloody doors off' is the only line I have ever liked by him and I saw him in this movie - The Hand (something like that) - where he was soooo dire I couldnt stand to watch him again...
Pebs - August 2, 2007 02:15 PM (GMT)
and I dont care how much of a parody anybody says he is - Samuel L Jackson is as cool as!
The 51st State with him in is a fav and I just lurve him!

Oh I totally agree :D I was gonna mention Caine but I assumed someone else would.
I think he is hilariously bad though, that 'blow the bloody doors off" cracks me up. He has had some decent moments, Educating Rita, Alfie, but I don't think he can consitently pull it off. He said himself that to stay in work in the past, he just acted in ANY movie cos he figured if he did 100 bad ones he might get one good one! roflmao It has worked though cos like him or loathe him, he is a Brit legend. :wacko:

Oh I forgot to say - is the Hand a horror flick? 60s or 70s? If it's what I\m thinking fo it was indeed shite .

Indeed :D I imagine like me you watch almost any horror film that comes on the TV for free. And that I think was one of those late night 1960s horror on the BBC, many of which are very good, this one has awful though roflmao Takign th episs out fo Michael Caine is a national sport in our house. roflmao

sounds like a sport I would like to try out for!
Dinky Jo - August 2, 2007 02:31 PM (GMT)
oh, i saw a trailer at the weekend for some film with Ricky Gervais in it. Ricky Gervais might be a good comedian, but an actor - he is not! He's always Ricky-frickin-Gervais. they should just put in the credits "Ricky Gervis as himself dressed in funny clothes"
Now, sometimes it's ok if an actor just plays themselves - if they're an interesting person it works. But Ricky Gervais is just slightly annoying in my opinion...... :unsure:

Ricky is good at what he does, but like most comedy, it is best kept to sitcoms and sketches, not 2 hour films. I tend to avoid comedy films as two hours of the same joke is too much for me. :)

Well it has to be Vinnie Jones.Sportsman turned actor,not very good.
Now I hear Beckham may be on the way if Simon Fuller has anything to with it.Victoria is also appearing in Ugly Betty for one episode.
I watched Coyote Ugly the other night.Piper Perabo is terrible,followed closely by her male lead Adam Garcia.
I forgot how truly awful it was.
Jerry Bruckheimer should stick to producing action movies.

I watched a bi tof that film as nothign else on, nto a film I'd pick but it was truly diabolical!

Hugh Grant - I was expecting the floppy haired one of 'one role' to have been mentioned by now. He annoys my arse off, as an English person find it sad that we have so many great actors, e.g. John Hurt, Jeremy Irons, Paul McGann, Daniel Day Lewis, and yet the Americans latched onto him like flies on sh8t as the ultimate Enlgish film star. :rolleyes:
Which reminds me of this woman, for whom the term 'actress' should be used loosely
Liz Hurley - YUCK! She is so ba dit's criminal. I saw her and Hugh Grant in a very old movie full of Brits about the artists and poets who met near a lake and Mary Shelley wrote Frankenstein as a result. On The Lake? maybe? They were both terrible in that it was embarrassing, as the roles were serious and stetching. Woudl she realyl get roles if she'd never gone out in a dress covered in safety pins? I very much doubt it.
SuperBRAT - August 5, 2007 01:23 PM (GMT)
My best friend hates Gwyneth PALTROW. She says she is just a miserable po-faced b*tch! roflmao I tend to agree, and I saw a movie with he rin the other day and she was just miserable and dire, and she looked so scrawny and pathetic. Make sme laugh how she comes out with these comments to the media like "Englishmen are miserable!" What does she expect she is married to that miserable po-faced anoraked one form Cold play! roflmao
And she was obsessed with spraying detox round th ehous ein case her stupidly named Apple of a kid caught a bug. :wacko: Anally retentive woman! Then there was the wierd hoistic therapy of 'cupping' that she tried which left her covered in red marks like a leach had sucked her back! roflmao Oh and she screwed up with Bradd Pitt too. :D
SerenaW19 - August 8, 2007 12:11 PM (GMT)
I like Gwyneth Paltrow, one fo the worst has got to be Heather Graham. I don't really think of Liz Hurley as actress to be honest, just an IT girl who has turned up in a few films :lol:

No I'm nto a fan of Gwyneth, but my comments are mor etongue in cheek if you knwo what i mean. I started this thread to give everyone a chance to moan and slag off their most annoying screen stars :D

Katie Holmes also, I don't care for :shrug: Actually it's more there weirdness as a couple I don't like :lol:

Yes he is good. :D
Rambo - well a lot seem to slag off Stallone, but no one yet has said they can't stick him on here.
Obviously he is limited in his actign skills but he was designed for action really not highbrow acting. I don't care for hsi films but I personalyl do nto hate him, I feel sorry for him in a way cos a lot fo folk took the piss out of hsi voice, but I understand that hsi speech is slurred due to an accident or stroke or something.
SerenaW19 - August 12, 2007 05:02 PM (GMT)
Yeah I was thinking of Stallone, I think the thing is, most people have only seen him in Terminator, and you can't say he doesn't play that part well.
Clearly is range is limited though :lol:

Although I do agree, It's a Wonderful Life is such a great light hearted flick; he's also great in Rear Window :bow: And Vertigo is another great Hitchcock he's in :)

Oh right :ok: I do think it is an odd relationship though, she says that when she was a little girl...12ish I think, that she used to fantasise about being Tom Cruise's girlfriend and now 15 years later she actually is. :whistle:
Not sure why she wanted to date a dwarf mind :crazy1:
