    I was surprised he had an acting career past that. Dallas Buyers Club proved why he has a career as he's incredible in it. He was also a solid Paul Owen in American Psycho but anyone who is very good looking who could play an empty vapid person would have done well with that role.

      Woody Allen. Everything about the way he acts just makes my skin crawl.

      He's great in Casino Royale where he plays a feckless loser who is treated as one by David Niven who plays James Bond.

        Jared Leto. All his best roles are the ones that could have been better, if they were played by someone else.

          Is there a movie where he (Wahlberg) doesn't play "Jersey boy who made good"? I feel like it's always the same character with a different job facing a different crisis.

          You think Wahlberg is a Jersey boy? What country do you come from? He has an incredibly noticeable Massachusetts accent which isn't anything like New Jersey's accent

            Chris Pratt's only good films were the Guardians of the Galaxy fims and the Lego Movie and his face wasn't even in one of those.

                In his latest role he's basically Walmart Hitler

                  Fuck (and I cannot emphasize this enough) fuck Timothy Chalamet. He is always so wooden. He can't act for shit. Hes just a very pretty nepo baby.

                  Also, can we count film makers? I hate Christopher Nolan. Every movie he makes is such a torturous slog. They are all metaphors for their own creation, and everyone of them is too concerned with the machinery, like hes pretentiously drawing attention to it. "GET IT? IM MAKING A MOVIE? IM A FUCKING GENIUS!"

                  I agree on both. Chalamet is a dickhead. Word was he was a one man Chlamydia vector at NYU.

                  And I don't get the Nolan worship either. His movies are okay, but not one of them is in my Top 10, probably not even in my Top 20. I don't think I've ever seen any of them more than once. I just never found them compelling enough to want to see it a second time.

                    What's wrong with promoting the observance of Lent among those that believe in Christianity? Ideally it is supposed to make you think about the value of self sacrifice and appreciate when others have made sacrifices for you.

                    He is not part of Hillsong but rather an affiliated church which is also problematic.

                    Technically, theoretically, on its own, not much.

                    However: Why is this Celebrity telling my kids what they should be doing/thinking? Why is their way of life so important and such a big deal that they need to talk about it openly, all the time?

                    (You just play the uno reverse card with everything all the right wing folks say about anything they don't like coming out of a celebs mouth, when they are gay or lesbian or queer or a different religion or promoting a scam product, etc).

                    Now I'm not gonna run around and actually do that, but I do find it kind of weird. I'd expect that message to come from... you know, a church Father, a local Bishop or something?

                      Same in "Carnage" but damn he's good in those roles. Though the movie was actually carried by Foster and Winslet.

                        Adam Sandler. I personally feel that his humour is aimed at school children - making silly faces and silly voices and basically making fun of the disabled or neuroatypical - but it's marketed to adults.

                        But I like 50 First Dates. He's mostly not a shouting toddler in that.

                        "50 first dates" is such an anomoly. That's the first Adam Sandler film I ever saw and it was years before I realized why i was getting side-eyed saying I liked his movies. Click was ok too, clearly more for his usual audience though.

                          Those complaint were the start of the Rock's non-wrestling acting career. Nowadays he sundowns series that execs are convinced they can still make money on, taking up a lead role and ruining any chance of another decent sequel.

                            If he isn't an actor what is he? Remember acting is a significant part of pro wrestling. You can argue he is a bad actor but it is silly to say he isnt an actor

                              a movie star perhaps, but not a true actor, as he cant act for shit, and i think he cares more about the movie star status more than acting, and he doesnt try. dave bautista can act though.

                              Try watching his SNL appearances and his role in Get Shorty. He’s a decent actor he just chooses wooden roles because it is most profitable for him.

                              Edit: Be Cool not Get Shorty.

                                  Yeah, I was raised by fundamentalist extremists who were really into the militia movement back in the 90s.

                                  Had to go no contact with them as they became insane QAnon cultists who illegally mfg full auto capable assault rifles in their garages.

                                  I actually did not grow up too far from where Chris did.

                                  Lets just say he grew up even further out in the boonies than I did.

                                    I would buy that if he was just an actor. The fact that he's written and produced most of the shit that he acts in doesn't happen because you smoke weed, it's in spite of it.

                                    You're not really following along. He has a career because he knows talented people and that includes getting whatever he writes accepted for production.

                                        I remember the 2021 film. The whole thing was in black and white apart from when the character saw actors or something because the film industry or acting industry brings light to the world or some pretentious point. Like just let me watch my historical film in colour

                                          Gonna take it in a slightly different direction and pivot the question to music. And in that case, Red Hot Chili Peppers, it's time to stop. I get it, it was cool and unique. But now, it all sounds the same, and you headline every festival ever and I can't enjoy the same 5 songs being crammed down my throat for the next 5 decades to come still. Please stop. I know you "can't stop", but please, please, stop.
