    His real life is so much creepier than his acting.

      The Minecraft movie was terrible though. Swapping him out with a different actor wouldn't have helped.

      It was a huge movie and the whole thing looked like they had a budget of about $20 and about $19 went on the set so they had to get the script written by somebody they hired of fiver

        That's because he plays a bumbling idiot very well.

          I like watching Walton Goggins in some roles, but the man himself gives me the stranger danger willies in interviews, etc.

            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.

              John C Riley is an uncomfortable mess in everything he's in and I cannot stand it. The exception is everything he's in, which is delightfully uncomfortable.

                  Hollywood is starting to make me dislike Pedro Pascal only because he's in EVERY DAMN THING.

                  I actually like the guy, but overexposure is a thing. And he could stand to just chill for a little while.

                  I don’t mind since he’s such a good person in real life, but I see how overexposure can be a problem

                    I absolutely agree with you about Stranger Than Fiction. Mine would be Adam Sandler, do not like that style of comedy. The only exception is Punch Drunk Love. One of my favourite movies! Also Jim Carey, except for Yes Men.

                      Leo DiCaprio. No exceptions. The movies he's been in that I've enjoyed were enjoyed despite him and not because of him.

                      His entire approach to a character is to put on an over-the-top accent and call it a day. I've never had the sense that any of his characters were the actual character and weren't just "Leo with an accent". I'll be fair and say that he has improved in recent years, with movies like The Revenant being tolerable.

                      But holy shit, how his career went anywhere when people saw his "acting" in Titanic and especially Romeo and Juliet, is mind-boggling to me.

                        Ben Stiller. I just can't get into anything he's in. He's just reading lines, nepo-baby for sure.

                        Exceptions: dodgeball, and tropic thunder, holy FUCK is he funny in tropic thunder

                        If those are your exceptions, strongly recommend Secret Life of Walter Mitty. Gorgeous scenery and a shot at stiller acting

                              Bautista was great and honestly showed more range than anyone else. Yeah, it was comical and a little extreme, but it worked.

                                  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 hate him, too, but he was good in Blade Runner 2049. I mean, the role should have come naturally since he was playing a narcissistic sociopath.

                                    Oh, I hated his role in Blade Runner 2049. Not his acting, just the role. It seemed forcefully implanted in the story to make it more action-filled. I also hated the recreation of young Rachel concept. It made no sense to me and felt like it should make no sense to Decart either. I wish Leto's role would have been toned down to allow for the film's meditative and well emotionally built parts to shine.

                                      At 6, it's practically a guarantee. All kids are psychopaths until about 10.

                                      My cousin once stabbed me in the leg with a pair of scissors and thought it was hilarious.

                                      I have no expertise on anything, but neither of my two children have stabbed me, nor others I have been around, just in case the anecdotal evidence helps anything.

                                        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.
