    Most movies I’ve seen him in he’s done a good job, playing someone comical in the MCU films or someone more serious like in Blade Runner 2049. I don’t think he gets taken seriously because he’s a wrestler, but he's got a long filmography.

    i the MCU made him into comic relief, thats why he isnt taken seriously, it doesnt do him justice to stay in MCU, maybe because of PRATT thats why he isnt allowed to outshine chris pratt.

        That's because he isn't acting. Somewhere along the line he stopped being the actor known as Ryan Reynolds and just became the character Ryan Reynolds.

          I feel the same way about Adam Sandler except for Punch Drunk Love. the right role makes a big difference.

          I think Punch Drunk Love was his best serious role, but I also remember liking Reign Over Me and Spanglish. His more recent Uncut Gems was pretty good too.

            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.

            I cannot, for the life of me understand the appeal of Russell Crowe. Except I have no problem with his brutish density in L.A. Confidential.

              He was the highest paid actor a couple years ago so unfortunately I think we have to count him as an actor. He wasn't getting paid nearly as much in the WWE I don't think. He's nearing billionaire status. If he does barely anything he should probably hit it in the next 2-3 years.

              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.

                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.

                  Danny McBride. I can grit my teeth if he's playing a small role, 30 Minutes or Less was pushing the limit, but he so often plays the same insufferable, arrogant asshole and he plays it too well.

                      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.

                        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.

                          The first thing in which I saw him was the Doctor Who episode The Lodger and I thought he was likeable enough in that. I could never stand him in anything else, his late-night talk show run was a blight on humanity, and even the return appearance of his Who character in a second episode was entirely unnecessary.

                              This gave new an idea.

                              Donald currently enjoys erasing history - rewriting slavery, removing BIPOC accomplishments, etc. What if we start removing him from old media? Re-record a version of that movie that didn’t have Trump in it, erase old copies of The Apprentice, etc.

                                    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 couldn't stand Jason Statham. Then many years ago I watched Spy with Melissa McCarthy and he was the perfect piss take of his characters from so many other movies. Example scene that shows his comedic stupidity. Ever since I haven't minded the guy.

                                      I love watching him in the stupid repetitive action flicks! The whole genre is great entertainment when you want to just see something total garbage, and he's my favorite lead for them because he has the vibe of doing it ironically. Sometimes the actors are too serious and that kinda ruins the fun

                                        Tenet frustrated me. You could tell that there was a good movie there but the sound mixing was horrible and the execution was lacking.
