Worst actors/actresses today.

[socalwingfan]

The girl from Twilight is awful - I can't stand Will Smith but it's more a personality thing than his ability to act

[Yasa]

Edit - beaten.

Cameron Diaz.

Ah, you had it under beaver. LOL. My lazy work habits of using search and not actually reading have failed.

I do agree with that, its funny because I believe that he hired Carrie Fisher as a script doctor for "Revenge of the Sith" and the dialogue selection were a lot stronger.

However I think Revenge of the Sith was rushed in terms of length of time. If you read the book, the turn of Anikan was a lot stronger, because the dialogue allowed the seduction to make sense.

In Revenge of the Sith they made the seduction and choices around the possible loss of love, with a little frustration about lack of contol of his destiny.

In the book while he was worried about losing his wife, it really focused around his lack of contol due to his lack of power. Palpatine basically convinced him that the Sith way was better because a Sith gains his knowledge through power while a Jedi gains his power through knowledge.

If they would have added 30 minutes to the movie, it would have been much stronger.


I love Lucas' imagination and I love the images. I remember being blown away at least two or three times a movie.

ie Phantom Menance - The invasion of Theed, the fight between Maul and the Jedi
Attack of the Clones - sheer density of things happening in the background during the arena fight, Kamino
Revenge of the Sith - opening battle, jedi murders, obi-wan versus Vader up until the high ground speech, the ending flashes
Star Wars - Opening scene, death of Obiwan
Empire Strikes back - Hoth invasion, I love you scene, the cave, the duel, I am your father
Return of the Jedi- The battle scene over Endor, Han makes prisoners dig their graves and murders them, the whole interaction between Luke, Palpatine and Vader, the final fight between Luke and Vader where Luke tips to the Dark side.

Brendan Fraser has gotta be up there as well.

I don't understand how people can sit through an episode of How I Met Your Mother. NPH rules, but the rest of the cast drive me up the wall. So whiny. So cheesy.

But Keanu self admittedly said he was a terrible actor, so that puts him back on the cool side.

He did that one movie about discrimination in a private school and he was very good in it.

I kill you now?

[Handsome B. Wonderful]

Scarlett Johansson. There's two reasons you're employed honey, and acting ability is not one of them.

He isn't the best actor, but I still tend to enjoy him in movies for some reason. Call it a guilty pleasure I guess.

I can't stand Julia Styles in movies. Everything she does seems so fake.

Although I find some of the jokes funny on that show, I absolutely can't stand the characters. They are all so self-absorbed and narcissistic that it is difficult to root for any of them.

So now that most current actors have been named as being terrible.... who does everyone like? haha.

Alex Burrows.

Has anyone mentioned Lindsay Lohan yet? She was decent in Mean Girls, but has gone downhill ever since. Although, I have not actually watched any of her other movies, but there you have it.

A few others who should be mentioned: Jessica Alba, Martin Lawrence, Eddie Murphy circa 2000, Winona Ryder, Juliette Lewis, and a second vote for Cameron Diaz. Diaz pretty much ruins Gangs of New York for me.

[CaptainCrunch]

Lindsay Lohan was good and mean girls and great in Georgia Rules.

Then she spiraled out of existance in I know who killed me.

[Rathji]

I think Jenna Haze is a terrible actress. I mean, she is hardly believable at all.

[CaptainCrunch]

Yeah, I hear she has texture issues

[Ozy_Flame]

A really good actor is James Franco. And his real-life personality seems to compliment his acting skills.

And lets not forget Bruce Campbell.
