For example, I don’t like Will Ferrell in his typical roles. Oh they just drive me batty.

But. I do love Stranger Than Fiction. It’s such a cozy movie.

    I can’t stand Adam Sandler movies. Exceptions: The Wedding Singer and 50 First Dates.

        I bought a lot of pudding.

        This and Stranger than Fiction are my two go-to “dislike the actor except for in _____” movies. Tends to be comedians stepping out of their narrow role to do something serious and experimental.
        Also you can’t lose with Jon Brion composing.

        I bet all those underscores are going to render weird.

      I’m the same but different. The only one I really like is Billy Madison because it leaned hard into its own absurd premise, went to absurd extremes, and arguably created the prototype of the plot that every other Sandler movie would follow.
