Is there an actor you can't stand? Do they have any exceptions?
-
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
It's called a joke.
-
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.
wrote last edited by [email protected]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.

What's wrong with promoting the observance of Lent among those that believe in Christianity?
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?
Do you have any experience with Christianity? It is by nature evangelical. You are supposed to share your message with others. Different denominations stress this to different degrees

wrote last edited by [email protected]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.

So then how are you confused by them sharing their faith this way?

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 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.
What about the Red Hot Chili Pipers
-
Will Ferrell is garbage in everything except Anchorman
I like his over the top super dumb villains in Zoolander and Between Two Ferns.

Flea dancing around on stage naked at 20? Okay, edgy and hilarious. Doing it at 60+? Talk about a real Uncle Rico

Not a Cruise fan myself, or NASCAR, but I do like Days of Thunder.
Also staring Nicole Kidman, Micheal Rooker, and Robert Duvall.
Every time I see a train of traffic approaching behind me as I floor it on an on ramp to the interstate I say to myself "IF YOU DON'T GET ME OUT IN FRONT OF THAT PACE CAR THIS RACE IS OVER!"
-
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.
Agreed, I was worried the same would happen to Allen Tudyk but then I watched three Allen Tudyk shows in a row and realized it's actually really hard to get sick of him for some reason.
-
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'm surprised no one has said Fran Drescher
-

Did I say I was confused?
I am put off by it, I find it concerning, inappropriate, performative, disingenuous.
-
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.
I thought Sandler in Uncut Gems was pretty good. It's a serious role, that made me rethink all of the campy comedies he's done.

You show you are confused by the last line in your post. Why would you think this would need tocome from the clergy given your history of fundie christianity? Were you in one of the weird ones that doesn't evangelize?

Tenet frustrated me. You could tell that there was a good movie there but the sound mixing was horrible and the execution was lacking.
wrote last edited by [email protected]While I agree with you, I have heard two things that I think are important to know.
-
The early pirated versions were especially horrible, as the audio was mixed for the big screen.
-
Intentionally muddying the dialogue is a well known movie technique. Often used in scenes or situations where the actual spoken words aren't important. For example, I remember seeing an old movie once where this guy is dumping his GF down by the docks, and most of his words are inaudible due to fog horns from ships, and his (ex)GF covers her ears. Where Nolan failed was that in that fog horn example it's obvious that it's intentional. In Tenet, on the other hand, the masqing audio is usually part of the soundtrack, so it just sounds like an awful mix. Tenet made me adjust volume constantly because I felt I was missing something. I liked the movie, though. Except that scene didn't even closely resemble Oslo airport.
I also wish Nolans movies did not have such an insanely wide dynamic audio range. First you're listening to actual important dialog, then your windows shatter from the sound of movie gunshots.

I think you’re thinking of Be Cool. The Rock was not in Get Shorty

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.

I saw it as an AMC A-List subscriber diring COVID twice as the only person in the theater. I sat in the best seat in a place that had redone theor soubd system 1 year before and it was rough.
Im not sure there are better circumstances to view it in for the average person.
