chris pratt and rob machlenny. stay in your lane rob, collaborating with ryan and manning is really strange for your characther, and it looks like desperation to stay with the hollywood circle of elites. your interviews you have given over the pandemic makes you extremely pretentious: acting like its secret on how to get steroids for you s13 role, and downplaying it. mooching off ryan reynolds popularity as a transaction, plastic surgery+botox is pretty much ruined your face a little, and kaitlyn olsen.

also alec baldwin.

Ben Afflict.

Was very weird how everyone liked that he was chosen as Batman, he was such a bad Batman. He actually gave rich prick vibes.

[–] Zorque@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago

I dont recall everyone liking that he was chosen as Batman, in fact as I recall most people were like "Ben Affleck?! That guy from Mallrats and Gigli?"

gave rich prick vibes.

psst. Batman was often portrayed as a rich prick.

Ryan Reynolds. Man got married on a plantation and no one seems to care, plus he plays the same character in everything he's in.

[–] Zorque@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

At least on Detective Pikachu he tried doing something different, but was told "no, we dont want acting, we want Ryan Reynolds", so it might be more of a typecasting problem.

[–] Khrux@ttrpg.network 2 points 1 day ago

He is very involved in the branding that results in his typecasting, so I have no pitty for it.

[–] bran_buckler@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago

Oh my god, yes. He was fine using that schtick in one movie, but it’s every goddamn film he’s in…

Jack Black. I don’t think I’ve ever enjoyed a single minute of his acting. Absolutely cannot stand him and his whole thing he has going on.

For the black & white movie days... Barbara Stanwyck. I get that in Double Indemnity she's supposed to be an evil bitch, but even in movies where she's supposed to be the one you're rooting for...she's terrible. And in one movie I saw with her I didn't even realise it was her at first and I was still like, 'This person is terrible.' and then I realised it was her.

For the modern day - being somebody born in the 80s that grew up in the 90s... Di Caprio. Even when I was a kid I was like, 'There's something off with him and I don't know it is, but there's something off....' and everybody else is going on about how amazing he is. Now at least we know that he's a predatory creep.

I like Will Smith.

My former peer talks about Will Smith a lot. I was working in a city where they film a lot of stuff, and Will would travel before filming started. He'd come in, book a bit of the mayor's time, and thank him for letting them film. He'd waste his day touring the city and seeing local groups as a drop-in guest, and then bail. The guy really worked on his image and PR and seemed to come off as generally a good guy ... before.

Leonardo DiCaprio.

Always hated him. Always called him a bad actor whose idea of acting amounts to throwing on a fake accent and literally nothing else to build his characters; no mannerisms, no method, no changing his body or his face. He's just Leonardo DiCaprio with an accent every...single...time.

Before The Revenant, when everyone was complaining about him being "snubbed" by the oscars, I always thought "no...he is legitimately fucking terrible...especially when he was younger" (ie. Romeo and Juliet, Titanic, Gangs of New York years). And I thought I was taking crazy pills since everyone else seemed to adore him because of Titanic.

Kristen Schaal - I absolutely hated her in 30 Rock and that just stuck with me. But I'm starting to come around since What We Do in the Shadows. I also never had a problem with her voice acting.

Meryl Streep. Oh God Meryl Streep

[–] qevlarr@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

What the fuck. She's phenomenal.
