For me, its Mark Whalberg, Kirsten Dunst, Ryan Reynolds, John Wayne, Awkwafina and Katharine Hepburne. These share one thing, i dont like how the look, ---

Jim Carrey and Adam Sandler come to mind. And for actresses, Melissa McCarthy and Rebel Wilson. ---

Mel Gibson. And I used to really like him, going back to “Gallipoli,” “The Year of Living Dangerously,” and all the Mad Max movies. When he revealed the ugliness of his real nature, I wrote him off. No matter what he does, I will never watch him in another movie again. ---

Will Ferrell, 99 percent of his movies are not for me. Elf is an exception, but otherwise it’s a no. Nepo baby Ben Stiller is another one whose comedy escapes me and his movies make me generally uncomfortable. ---

> [@crazyjoe](#): > > Nepo baby Ben Stiller Good one. In general, I couldn’t stand him. (Although on a recent rewatch of _Reality Bites_ I realized he was the only adult in the room.) ---

Maggie Gylenhaal. She was, IMHO, the worst thing about _The Dark Knight_ and ruined the whole character of Rachael Dawes. ---

Shelley Long. Frances Bavier. Angela Lansbury. I can’t stand the sound of their voices. And, especially for Bavier, I’m still stunned she received any awards at all for her acting or her voice. Maybe the judges for such things need to be drug tested. Oddly enough, I’ve been trying to remember the name of another actress with a horrid voice (a very squeaky voice). She played the mistress of a US congressman or senator on a sitcom in the 1970s or 1980s. As soon as I find out her name, she’s on the list too. ---

Gilbert Gottfried, with exceptions for _Aladdin_ and _Beverly Hills Cop II_. ---

It’s the 1990s, and Billy Crystal, Whoopie Goldberg, Danny Devito, and Bette Midler will be phoning it in for another formula comedy! And aren’t we all just lucky to be alive at the same time! ---
