Popular Actors You Don't Like?

[DP McCoy]

Ok i was just scanning the movie listings for the forthcoming week and i found myself dismissing certain movies just because of the actors appearing in them,not because i think these actors are poor but because i just don't like them for some untangible reason.
Does anybody else dislike an actor/actress who are popular maybe even considered the best actor/actress of their generation?Will you pass on a movie just because said actor/actress is appearing in it?
Three actors that i don't like are...
Richard Gere.
Robert Redford.
Jack Nicholson.
All of these have won or been nominated for Academy Awards but i just can't warm to them.So who do you dislike?

[paws the great]

Sarah Jessica Parker
Barbra Streisand
Alec Baldwin
Gwyneth Paltrow
Robert Redford
Jane Fonda
Hilary Swank
Julia Roberts
Sean Penn
Angela Bettis
Cameron Diaz
REESE WITHERSPOON!

I do like some of their movies,but I don't like them!

tom cruise

[Posher778]

tom cruise

That one is a given.

[alkytrio666]

Why the hell all the hate for Bob Redford?! One of the greatest, in my opinion. I also think Tom Cruise is good, but I guess all that matters these days are personal lives...

"Tom Cruise is a scientologist? Ah! He sucks at acting!"

:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

[Unaboner3000]

Tom Hanks.

[alkytrio666]

DeNiro too? Why?

[DP McCoy]

DeNiro too? Why?

Not quite sure,its not that i think he is a bad actor(although many of his performances seem to blend into one imo),i just don't connect with him as i'm sure many others do,Or maybe its the moles fault!

Yes,Robert Redford can act.....I just don't like his movies.I also like Tom Cruise a lot.

I think stuff in his personal life is having alot of effect on his declining popularity, but I'm not sure it's the Scientology aspect of it. I think it has more to do with him dropping Nicole Kidman & their kids like a sack of rocks for Katie Holmes (Who's parents are staunchly against the marriage & also against her converting to sScientology. She was brought up strict Catholic.) and also for his ignorant comments regarding Brooke Shields & post-partem depression, and maybe a little bit of how he seems to be getting progressively more insane with each public appearance.


Anyways, on with the reply...

I think Tom Hanks is a good actor, but he doesn't pick very good scripts.

Joaquin Phoenix just bugs the shit out of me.

Denzel Washington. (Training Day and a select few other excluded, is it just me or are every one of his movies like the same fucking film?)

Snoop Dogg (I love his music, but he needs to stop trying to act.)

Paris Hilton (She just sucks, period. There is absolutely NO reason this chick should be famous aside from her daddy being insanely rich.)

Ben Affleck (Daredevil, Surviving Christmas, Armaggedon, Reindeer Games, Gigli, Paycheck? The only good movies he's in are all directed by Kevin Smith except for Good Will Hunting.)

[ManchestrMorgue]

Russell Crowe

[stubbornforgey]

Russell crowe for me too.
Al Pacino was good in the godfather
but is now taking on stereo type kind of roles.

[monalisa]

Jerry O'Connell
Steven Seagal
Jean-Claude Van Damme

Jessica Simpson
Sarah Michelle Gellar - Sorry, I just can't get past her playing Kendall, the evil demon seed daughter of Erika Kane in "All My Children". I didn't like her acting then and I still don't care for it.

[DP McCoy]

A few more i dislike...
Juliette Lewis.
Antonio Banderas.
Warren Beatty.

Bwind,i'm with you on Joaquin Phoenix except in Walk the Line which i liked.
Glad to see i'm not alone when it comes to Redford too:p

[stubbornforgey]

HE SUX.

[The Mothman]

Ryan Reynolds

[Dominion]

Neil Patrick Harris

[bloody_ribcut]

i never liked that guy from the pink panther,
i dont even wanna remember his name.

[The_Return]

Original Pink Panther or the God-awful remake?

If you're talking about Steve Martin in the remake, I completly agree. Didnt like him much to begin with, and his complete hackjob on Pink Panther made me lose any shred of respect that I may have had for him.

If you're talking about Peter Sellers in the original, I dont think I can talk to you anymore.

Have you seen a lot of Steve Martin movies beyond the required ones like The Jerk and Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.

I'm sure that he was talking about Peter Sellers... I doubt that he doesn't know who Steve Martin is. I loved Peter Sellers, what year did he die?

Havent seen a whole lot admittedly, but his type of humor doesnt impress me much.

I cant stand John travolta/ I HATE HATE HATE HIME SO MUCH!!:mad:

Are you homophobic? lol..:p

[Despare]

He hasn't been on in years but he really did have some brilliant stuff. Love his standup too.

[Dominion]

Chuck Norris....what a big pussy.

[Dominion]

that guy from full house ...you know all of them .

I think you're full of shit.

[Dominion]

i do have to go ...thanks man :)
you like Full House. Don't try to deny it...

Later dave.

[bwind22]

Chuck Norris? John Travolta? Bob Saget?

It would seem this thread has taken a turn for the worse. Chuck Norris put out some of the best cheesy action flicks ever in the 80s. John Travolta is a really nice guy (How can you not respect a guy with his status that still actually takes the time to respond to his fanmail?) Bob Saget is just funny. (I'm guessing whoever disliked him has never seen his standup or probably anything beyond Full House. His cameo in Half-Baked made that movie memorable. He's hilarious on Entourage. And his standup is just plain funny in a really unexpectedly raunchy way.)

I kind of agree with Bob Saget, although I'm still not a fan. He was typecasted bad with Full fucking House and America's corniest Home Videos... It is a matter of opinion though...;)

[Dominion]

thanks B ...bob saget is the dude i was thinking of :)

You're a member of the Bob Saget fan club.

[Dominion]

bob and the hoff ;)

Hasselhoff? Lol.:D

[_____V_____]

Steve Guttenberg and Corey Haim...2 of the worst.

Then there's Adam Sandler, who bugs the shit out of me.

Keanu Reeves is an annoyance on screen.

Steven Seagal doesnt know how to act.

Eminem in 8 mile...why didnt someone shoot him after that one?

Timothy Dalton...lamest Bond ever made.

Chris Tucker...Take a peek at "The Fifth Element" and the Rush Hour series and you ll know why.

Loud comedians never worked for me...and the most annoying performance has to be Richard Pryor in Superman III. Wtf was that casting (and that character) all about?

Some more will come to mind if I sit back and think...

LOL..
yes
Eddie Murphy
makes me totally sick..
Will Smith should have stayed as The Fresh Prince'
loud comedians annoy me too.:rolleyes:

[paws the great]

Winona Ryder:mad:



I did like"Bram Stoker's Dracula"and"The Crucible",but they would have been better films without her!

[monalisa]

You do all realize that if anyone says anything bad about Bill Moseley (Otis), I will have to find you all and kill you, right? :p

[Despare]

Renée Zellweger

[Dominion]

Willie Ames

[Despare]

Paul Walker's a fucking queer.

I doubt it... but he isn't a very good actor from what I've seen. Running Scared gives him some hope though. What what that damn diving movie he was in? I saw commercials for that shite for a few weeks and I'll be damned if I even saw it released.

[Despare]

"IM GONNA NEED NOS. I NEED ONE OF THE BIG BOTTLES. NO, MAKE THAT TWO"


Pretty homo to me...

I'm not even going to get into it with you, you're right, Paul Walker is often a below average actor in poorly written movies which of course means that he likes to have sex with men.

[Despare]

I'm glad you see my logic.

It's quite easy to follow really. No twist or turns, just sudden dips. ;)

[Dominion]

Geoffrey Rush....fuckwad
