Yours?
:dubious: You have an interesting definition of ‘shitty’, dude.
Unfortunately, lately, Jon Voight.
He went from being a great lead to a great character actor to playing the same generic father figure/authority figure in cheeseball blockbuster films.
Lou Diamond Phillips
Leonardo DiCaprio
Kate Winslet
Jude Law
Haley Joel Osment (I can’t stand that guy)
Richard Gere
Julia Roberts (Stop lip-syncing in all your damn movies)
One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest and the first Back to the Future. Are you saying he has an ouevre to be proud of, fanboy?
Martin Henderson.
You all probably don’t know who he is but you can be grateful for that. His next attempt at stardom will be the “Mr and Mrs Smith” TV series.
Rob Schneider.
…Dana Carvey was only saved by a hair…
With the exception of DiCaprio, who’s one of my favorite actors (that has been in some shitty movies) your list looks almost exactly like mine.
I have to make a minor exception for Primal Fear, though, which starred Gere. That movie was sweet.
To your list I have to add Ben Stiller and Angelina Jolie. Oh, Jesus, I can’t stand her.
Sure do. I see a grand total of ONE movie that can be called shitty in there (Baby Geniuses). a handful that are entertaining enough if there’s nothing better on, and a bunch of kids movies (most of which fall into the second category, or are actively good). Plus, inevitably, a number I haven’t seen. And a LOT of TV and video game work.
On the other hand, there’s One Flew, the first two BttF, the first Addams Family, and Who Framed Roger Rabbit, any one of which would make up for the ‘forgettable, but not really bad’ list (which includes the third BttF and second Addams Family).
Even Camp Nowhere is pretty funny. I watched it as a kid, then re-watched it last year and caught a startling number of drug references.
Sandra Bullock
Assuming the OP means actors who keep turning up in shitty movies rather than actors I personally don’t like:
Christopher Lambert
Eric Roberts
Steven Segal
Rachael Leigh Cook
Lorenzo Lamas
Gary Busey
Krista Allen
Meg Ryan.
Bette Midler
David Spade
Lorenzo Lamas
Anyone from the cast of Friends.
I agree with most of his list as well (like you, I actually really like DiCaprio, even though he’s been in a few bad films), with the exception that I do think Gattaca and Road to Perdition were both good, and had Jude Law in them (although his role wasn’t that significant in Road to Perdition and he didn’t really help the movie in any notable way.)
17 posts and no mention of Pauly Shore?
What is wrong with you people?
Sacha Baron Cohen
Adam Sandler
I see that Steven Seagal has already been mentioned. Doesn’t matter. This thread should have consisted of two words - “Steven” and “Seagal” - followed by a closing because the matter had been thoroughly exhausted. The guy isn’t just a crappy actor, a liar and a self-deluded self-aggrandizing bullshitter; he’s like a black hole for talent. Has he ever made a single movie that wasn’t actually unpleasant to watch?
