One Rule:
No flaming...


Other than that... name popular actors that are annoyingly popular that you despise...

Mine: Tom Cruise...
Leonardo Dicaprio
Matt Damon
Ben Affleck
Jennifer Lopez...
basically almost every rapper that decides to star in a movie... damn if I see Ice Cube in another movie again...
Er... I'm drawing a blank now... i'll post more later..

Heh ... we have the same list! Neat.

This is my list verbatim....

I call it "The Plane Crash List".
Beucase I want them all to be on the same plane when it crashes.

The only exception to you list, is that you left out Keanu Reeves, who will be strapped to the planes fuselage so he hits first.

Note*

It IS possible to be removed from this list, but you have to be in TWO good movies.

Brad Pitt is no longer on this list.

Snatch...

Fight Club.

He's off my list because of how well he did in 12 Monkeys.

Hmm, I would have to say:

Hillary Duff. I'm sorry, but it's just annoying to see her face plastered everywhere. And she stars in movies where she's the, "Under privelliged teenager with "typical" teenage problems." God. :headbang: "Oh, I like this boy, he's cute. Oh wait, this one is more understanding and cute." OK, I used a quote in a quote. That's my two cents.


Sorry, it's somewhat flaming, I needed it off my chest though.

That wasnt too bad either.

While I truly hate Tom Cruise as well.....
"The Last Samurai" was really good.

"Minority Report" was decent...but not good enough, so Cruise needs one more really good movie to live.

Hilary Duff is annoying, thats true....

But she has some nice titties, so thats a plus.

Does that make me a dirty old man?

Hmmm I thought he was quite horrible in Last Samurai... I didn't finish watching it (watched like half of it) because they kept fitting him into every friggin scene...

And Minority Report... well I'd say he was decent in it too.

Not dirty, maybe just a little grimey. She does look nice, I just can't listen to any movies, or shows, or songs....

Um Hilary Duff.. which one is she again?

Let's see, did you see a commercial for "A Cinderella Story"? If not, watch Nickelodean or Disney Channel for 5 seconds then you will. She's in that movie.

Cruise's performance was better than average in Samurai.

What made that movie was the Lord of the villiage, THAT guy was really good.
I dont ask for much, so a "better than average" performance is all it takes for me to lay off.

Besides, the Ninjas were BAAAAAD.

Jennifer Lopez, dumb bitch.

I dunno... it seemed to me Cruise had two modes of facial expression in that movie... Half-asleep and angry. Either he was bitching aobut how horrible they were killing native americans... or he was half-asleep sorta passive... maybe he improved toward the end... but thats the impression I got from half the movie.

it was basically dances with shitzus(well i couldn't think of an appropriate japanese animal but you get my drift).

If you can stand it, see the whole thing.

Lord Nabunaga (I think that was his name) was the best character in the movie.

It was very much like a modern "Shogun" but you really end up feeling a sense of pity, and immense respect for the Samurai culture.

The end, where the modern Japanese Army lays waste to the Samurai with gatlin guns and then kneels and bows to thier fallen adversaries was a great moment.

All those "cute-looking" actors who young women have a real affinity for (eg. Jake Gyllenhaal, Tobey McGuire). For the sole reason they give real-life men a tough time trying to maintain a relationship with a young woman. Its sick how obsessed some of these girls get with a certain actor, that its impossible to maintain a REAL relationship.

but shogun had a bit more real history, i thought last samurai was kind of an intentional mystification of the period. it made no attempt to understand what really was going on at the time, it just created these black and white cliches about the noble samurai struggling against the evil modernizers.

I just found another reason to hate (really, to be envious of) Jake Gyllenhaal, - because he got to do the horizontal rumba with Kirsten Dunst god-knows-how-many-times , and according to her, in some London boutique changing stall and a beach.

Of course, Tobey McGuire got to do that as well didn't he?! (Dunst always have denied rumors shes dating/f*cking him) One more reason to hate those two.

Shogun was very much more true to life...and was altogether far superoir to "Last Samurai".

But it was also very very very long.

"Samurai" condensed much of that into a feature film.
Problem is..you lose much in translation.

Samurai did a decent job, without getting to heavy into Bushido.

Wich loses a lot of people.

Ben Afflecks awesome work with Kevin Smith should get him off that list.

And Collateral and Minority Report were really good, so they should do the same for Cruise.

Bu I agree with the Hillary Duff hater: Miranda was much hotter.

Oh, and I too despise all rapers. All.

assuming you meant rappers i think ice tea can be very good,and ice cube and snoop can hold their own in supporting roles.

Kevin Costner.

I got a name for y'all.

Britney Spears.

She's just an uber slut, dresses dirty to sell more music videos, acts all stupid, and doesn't look natural.

It is my honest opinion regarding her.

I would be willing to take off Britney Spears... *IF* she does the following:

1. Stop dressing or using smutty and slutty clothes
2. She creates respectable music
3. She doesn't overuse or oversell her sexuality
4. She starts a family and stays with one man (She has already begun doing that so kudos for that)

I consider Ashlee Simpson a far better musician than Britney Spears in many ways, musical skills and being civilized.


As for movie stars, I would like Ben Affleck (His movie career went down the toliet), J-Lo (She is way too over-rated), and Anne Heche (She doesn't even have halfway decent acting talent) to be taken out of the Hollywood picture.

These 3 movie people, in addition to Britney Spears, should be prevented from making any more movies or songs. (In Britney Spear's case, until she changes her smutty ways).


Theres my 2 cents.

Tom Cruise is definitely on my list, as are Kevin Costner and Patrick Swayze and Brad Pitt...

Oh, and I would request never to have another Steven Seagal movie ever made and maybe never another Jean Claude Van Damme movie either. They get on my nerves horrendously.

I also avoid any movie made by Woody Allen. Ugh.

Oh wait...and Billy Crystal and Steve Gutenburg and Rob Schneider and what's his name from Meet the Parents and anyone who was in The Royal Tenenbaums and Dennis Hopper.

I think that just about covers it until I think of more.

Paris Hilton, and her whole gang of people. They seem to substitute class and talent with pure money, yeilding a new FOX show.

Paris Hilton.... I forgot that one. :p

I say we seize all her assets, and then invest all of it in our failing education system.

You mean he wasn’t his usual “I’m so good looking and arrogant I don’t have to be able to act” self. :eek:

Elijah Wood (LotR would have been much better if the scenes featuring gimpoiding his way through them were cut).

Orlando Bloom (Good as Legolas, shite as everything else).

Vin Diesel (do you really need a reason?)

Keirah Knightly ("Does it matter I cannot act if I look pretty?")

Hugh Grant (Mickey Blue Eyes nearly saved him...nearly)

And pretty much everyone priviously mentioned.

Hilary Duff is annoying, thats true....



It's all Lindsay Lohan nowdays. Hillary Duff has jump'd the shark as they say.

Hmm, let's see:

Tom Cruise...terrible...just...terrible.
Julia Roberts...the result of crossbreeding between Satan and a horse.
Leonardo DiCaprio...the things he did to Shakespeare should never be forgotten or forgiven.
Tobey Maguire...always looks and sounds like he's about to fall asleep.
Meg Ryan..."perky" != "talented"
Mel Gibson...hated him before the religious propoganda, hated him more afterwards.
Ben Affleck...should have retired after "Chasing Amy".

Did I mention Tom Cruise? Because he really can't be mentioned enough when linked to "bad acting."

ken watanabe
i hear he's a huge star in japan
i'm hoping he'll be in manymany movies released in the US in the future

Elijah Wood (LotR would have been much better if the scenes featuring gimpoiding his way through them were cut).


Yeah, by the end of LoTR, due to his incessant belly-aching and soulful looks, I was pretty much rooting for Sauron.

Ha same here. Actually I was just rooting for a rock to fall above head and let gravity work its magic.

Although the most annoying line in the film was "I am no man" before the Nazgul Lord is killed. I think I dislike it because when I saw it loads of people (girls) cheered. (I know this comes across as terribly chauvanist, but I'm not. Just cannot stand disturbances when I go and watch a film.)

No kidding?

That's to be expected from a pro-feminist society.

Adam Sandler (yeh, a film about a moron who getts angry and yells a lot is funny. So much so we'll make lots of them)
Kevin Costner (Cause he's so up himself)
Helen Hunt (she is so fucking insipid looking! Where's her sex appeal - or acting ability for that matter?)
Meg Ryan (for all those truly awful romantic 'comedies' that our girlfriends forced us to go to)
Mel Gibson (for pretty much everything he's done since Mad Max. And for professing to be a Christian and putting out the extreme-violent rubbish Lethal Weapon movies)
Russell Crowe (If he was 1/10 as good as he thinks he is, he win an oscar with every movie)

and finally:
Michael Douglas (for looking like he does and yet still being able to bag Catherine Zeta-Jones. The jammy bastard)

daniel radcliffe

he adopts 1 pose throughout all of the three movies: gormless. He can't act. He didn't even apply for da part. He makes me so mad...

*rant-rant*

No kidding?

That's to be expected from a pro-feminist society.
Admittedly there was a "Get a life" shouted out (by a girl) I think from the back afterwards.

Shirley MacLaine. :mad:

To them, I say: :upyours:!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Baldwins. All of them. Especially Alec.

Jennifer Garner

I'm surprised no one's mentioned Pauly Shore yet. He doesn't bother me, but apparently he bothers a hell of a lot of other people.

Tom Cruise and Mel Gibson, enough said really.

Well almost as I just have to emphasize that I really hate Mel Gibson, I cannot even begin to describe what I think of him!

For all of you people,
1. In my opinion, I think Tom Cruise is a good actor, though I thought The Last Samurai was a hit and miss performance for him, however, Collateral, Minority Report, and Vanilla Sky were good performances by him.

2. Mel Gibsons last Lethal Weapon movie was Lethal Weapon 4 in 1997 I believe. Passion of the Christ was 2004, Dont you think a person can change a little bit inbetween 7 years.

And the people for me has to be Julia Roberts, Carrot Top, I think Julia Roberts has an annoying voice, and I think Carrot Top is an unfunny pretensious hack.

Linsy lohan (sp?) and the rest of the bubble gum movie generation, god i can't stand them

Michael Caine...

well he's not so popular but ...*gahhhhh*

Jean Claude "Goddamn I can't act" tops my list, rivaled only by Kevin Bacon.

I can't exactly say why I hate Kevin Bacon so much. But it's like we have an immortal dispute, with me at the head of the forces of good and him at the head of the forces of evil. At the end of time, there will be a great battle, and one of us will triumph. Until that day, I must seek to discredit him for everything he does.

With Jean Claude, it's a little differen't. I just think he blows.

I have merely one question;

WHY has no one mentioned the Olsen twins?! They are worth more than my entire family, yet cannot act and stick to the same kinds of 'plot lines' (I use that phrase loosely) because all they can do is a double act, and even that is questionable.

Other people are basically the ones that people have mentioned thus far. Kevin Costmore (not a spelling mistake) is top of the list - Robin Hood P.O.T did it for me...couldn't he have at least *attempted* an English accent? I mean, he *was* playing Robin Hood.

Bennifer can act occasionally, although this seems to be when he is in the presence of Matt Damon, which must be annoying for Matt. Both were good in Dogma...alas, he then bet J Lo (don't get me started on her, lol)

Ok, enough of my rant...sorry ppl, but can you really blame me? lol ;-)

i forgot one: any actor/actress with "Osmond" in their name

So many names, so little time. Well here goes the short list:
Ben Stiller: this guy is just NOT funny.
Sandra Bullock: couldn't act her way out of a paper bag
Julia Roberts: words can't express the way I feel.
Will Farrell: another SNL reject that just is NOT funny ( he nearly ruined Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back)

I guess from these few you can extrapolate that I don't appreciate "comedians" and "pretty faces" as substitutes for actors. Not to say there havn't been comedians and hotties that have done well, just not many I can think of right now!

Anyone who has starred in a "tweenie" movie in the past five years. This includes Hilary Duff, Brittney Spears, the Olsen twins, Lindsey Lohan (though she might actually mature enough to be decent), Chad Michael Murray, Hayden Christensen, and Orlando Bloom.

Michael Caine...

well he's not so popular but ...*gahhhhh*

Just a minute. What about the original Get Carter? It was head and shoulders above the Sylvester Stallone one. Sylvester Stallone I could cheerfully send to his death on that plane, but Michael Caine stays.

Tobey MacGuire. All he does is whinge and put on that 'I'm about to cry face'.

Cant stand him.

(oh and Kevin Costner sucks too)

Jackie Chan. He needs to lay off the crappy movies.

I find the bulk of actors to be utterly interchangeable. Many of them seem to possess no talent other than the ability to wear designer clothes well.

Britney Spears...does the following:

1. She dresses in smart and sleek clothes
2. She creates respectable music
3. She doesn't overuse or oversell her sexuality

I consider Lisa Simpson a far bigger slut than Britney Spears in many ways, musical skills and being civilized.


As for movie stars, I would like Ben Affleck (His movie career could come back if he'd do more nude scenes), J-Lo (She is way married to Marc Anthony), and Anne Heche (She doesn't even know if she's gay or straight) to be given another chance in the Hollywood picture.

These 3 movie people, in addition to Britney Spears, should be applauded for making any more movies or songs. (In Britney Spear's case, she always changes, because of her smart ways).
