DMX made Cradle to the grave sound and look lika bad rap video when he spoke, Jet li, Kelly Hu, Mark Dacascos, Tom Arnold, And Gabrielle union saved that movie. IMO

Side not damn Kelly hu and Gabrielle are H.O.T. HOT

[Necross]

I think it all depends on what movie the actor is in. Some are better suited for comedy like Anna Faris from Scary Movie. i don't think we will ever see her in a serious role. She was in Lost in Translation but that part was funny too. But I agree DMX = shame to actors.

[awakened]

DMX did pretty good in Belly

[Queen Arwen]

Adam Sandler
the former Mr. and Ms. Bennifer
Orlando Bloom (sorry! you're still the best Legolas ever)
Ashton Kutcher
Hillary Duff
Sylvester Stallone
Jean-Claude Van Damme

[ZombieMan]

Owen Wilson

Ashton Kutcher

I agree Orlando bloom also sucks at acting

I have to disagree with this one because beside being Anakin, he is really good in everything else. GL wrote Anakin's part badly, so you can't blame the boy for the mistake.

SOFIA COPPOLA ,, WHYY!!!!

[Necross]

This is a very negative thread, why can't we have more postive ones. Why isn't there a Who is a great actor thread? Oh thats right because people will immediatly resort too, oh your wrong! That person sucks!

Tell you one thing, they are millionaires. We are not, they are doing something right and whatever it is, I applaud them.

[Knerys]

Hillary Duff can act.....but only as herself. Exact same character through and through.
Casper Van Dien


Theouhg I will say that some actors are good ing there own catergories. Someone said DMX was good in his movies but not something like Punch Drunk Love. Granted I haven't seen a DMX movies but I agree with that logic.

[Citizen Kane]

They're hot and appeal to people on the basis of looks alone. That's not doing something right.

[rosncranz]

charlese theron, i know people will freak out, but she was not that great in monster. elizabeth shannon, keanu reeves, denise richards, mandy moore man listing them all would take forever!

:)

[KayTang999]

I do question their decision sometime but acting is the hard one because I don't think there is the best one in a year. I mean look at this year, all 5 of them are great in IMO.

[Rocketboy]

And her performance wasn't exactly great and definatley not worth a consideration for a nomination, let alone an actual nomination or win.

[KayTang999]

I haven't seen Leaving Las Vegas but I kind of like what he did in Con Air.

[southern]

Rose McGowan
Charmed is one of my favorite shows and i just want to ring her neck cause she ****s up her character:rolleyes:

[rosncranz]

cage was amazing in leaving las vegas, he is not a bad actor by any means. does he make some bad movies? without a doubt. but he is still a great actor.

[KayTang999]

Cage is better than actors that are listed here.

Vin Diesel
Chris Klein

Actually I think they are a better judge than you. Thats hundreds of people voting on those awards and I think hundreds of people voting for an actor/actress make the right decision. Even if I don't think so. I feel Johnny Deep should have won the Oscar this year but Sean Penn obviously was better because he was selected, and like he said that shows its not a popularity contest because well, he has quite a few enemies.

Nice to look at though.

And as for the cast of friends,i think they are good actors in a bad way.I mean,they are good actors when it comes to acting their roles in Friends.I think they are just too used to playing their character that when a new script comes,they tend to relate to their old characters.None of them really managed to run away from the shadow of Friends really.

True, but...

Tupac was a good actor, and Ice Cube did well in Boyz 'n the Hood. But I sorta agree with you. Most rappers try to get by solely with charisma....pffff

Actually, I just kind hate the idea of the industry giving itself awards and creating all this hoopla surrounding it and sucking the general public in. A lot of other areas do give themselves awards, but don't advertise it to the point of nausea. I guess I just prefer fan voted awards.

They didn't creat all the hoopla. The public did, the first academy awards was only 4 minutes long. its the public that wanted it advertised. Its the first time an awards show like that was created, thats why its the biggest in the world. You can bet if the Golden Globes came first they would be bigger than the Oscars today.

I know, he was like, "I am not playing myself! My character may be similar but its not me." Uh huh suuuuuuuuuuure. :p

[Marvin]

I think before this thread goes any further, someone should define what good acting is.

apart from being a subjective subject.

For example one might say Eminem was playing himself, but essentially, Russle Crowe does the same thing in Gladiator or master and comander, and to an extent Denzel does the same in all those movies inwhich he played the same strong black male fighting some sort of oppression.
And if it's ok to play a certain type of role well then why do we all bash Keanu so much?

Last time i checked Russell Crowe wasnt a Roman general turned slaved from the past. He is more of the alchoholic australian;)

But with Eminem his character was the same only they changed his name.

[Necross]

Good Acting? Oh thats simple, it varies from person to person. All depends on opinion so basically this thread is stupid and pointless, just like Best movie of all time threads.

Yes he is! He is also a criminal from a Virtual world, someone who saves hostages from south american terrorists, and a commander of an old boat! Dont be tellin lies on Russell!

Last time I checked Russel was sailing on a ship and FIGHTIN ROUND THE WORLD!

[KayTang999]

I think what dr_evil is trying to say is that Eminem is a rapper and his role in the movie is also a rapper. The role is closer to home for Eminim when compared to Russell's roles in many movies. Russell is Aussie not a Roman. He is not a British. He is not a Princeton educated. He is not a cop in LA. He has never work in tobacco industry. He has never been anyone slave. It is harder for Russell to link his live to any of these roles. He is an actor from Australia who has a rock band and married to an Aussie and has a kids. He is also a bad boy.

I don't like either of them but I think they can act if their life depend on it.

there is a difference between being a good actor and not being able to stand them, del torro is a good actor. also i think russel crowe is theat great of an actor.

[KayTang999]

Benicio is one fine actor. I would love to have half of his talent. He is really really good with his acting.

[King_Strider]

Jake Lloyd
Keanu Reeves
Freddy Prinze Jr.
Chris Klein
Jason Biggs
Kirstyn Dunst
Owen Wilson (unless he's playing a dumbass surfer)

[KayTang999]

Jake Lloyd is young, still have a long way to go. So I think given time, he will be fine in the future.

[Knerys]

I willing to give Lloyd another chance becasue he only acting I have seen was under terrible direction.

[Colorado Cajun]

Steven Seagal
Denise Richards


more will come

Sasha Mitchell
Roddy Piper

Steven Seagal always do the same thing forever, that is not acting anymore, it is his life now.

yeah that was bad, bad , horribly bad

Do you consider Edward Norton as a young actor?I think he is one of the best young actors around.Just watch Primal Fear and American History X.Wow.He nailed every single part.

Young as in 1-20 years old. Norton is at least 30 ANYWAY, I agree he kicks ass.

[PsYkOoOoO]

Norton's like,in his twenties right?Late twenties.

Anyway,Haley Joel Osmont is pretty good.(Sp?)

That kid from "I am Sam" is good too.

[KayTang999]

Dakota Fanning, she is one really good young actress.

I don't like either of them but I think they can act if their life depend on it. Though you do have to look at what kind of character he playing as well. Crowe, witht he exception of Beautiful Mind, has played serveral hard nose fighting agaist the system, can't keep the good man down, type of characters. But he's good at it so no problem, right?

Emineim. is a rapper, played a rapper, still did a good job with it, no problem there either.


Harrision Ford has made a career out of playing the renagade. Yes Jack Ryan and Han Solo are not the same person, one a space hustler, ones a federal agent but both have much of the same character traits. But you wuold never think to assign him as that because he does it so well.

So I guess I'm saying it not the range of actors you have had, if how well you play a specfic role.

[Undome-Elenamin]

Here's my list:

Beyonce Knowles
Britney Spears
Kate Bosworth
Orlando Bloom (ok he's not too bad but he does need to improve)

I think Ashton needs to do more drama and stay away from comedy if he want to get better at acting.

Jennifer Jason Leigh, the actress with only one facial expresion.

[sniktawt]

Jennifer Jason was incredible in "RUSH" , Also very good in "Dolores Claiborne" "Georgia" and "Last Exit to Brooklyn.".

[PsYkOoOoO]

There are actors out there with a lot of similar facial expressions,but they are great.

Huge Grant for one.I saw About A Boy yesterday,and he basically had only a few expression to name of.And he's great in it.
