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 don’t care for “Home Alone 2” star Donald Trump
A bit player at best.
In his latest role he’s basically Walmart Hitler
Dollar store Hitler.
he was pretty good in ‘The Time Before He Was Alive’
“Down the hall and to the left.” What a schmuck.
This gave new an idea.
Donald currently enjoys erasing history - rewriting slavery, removing BIPOC accomplishments, etc. What if we start removing him from old media? Re-record a version of that movie that didn’t have Trump in it, erase old copies of The Apprentice, etc.
Or just cut out the scene from the existing movie and start spreading the edit via bittorrent.
AI versions which replace him with Obama. Extra points for having him shit talk the old host and joke about firing him.
Who?
Used to be different but Jack Black needs to go away. Every time I see him in something its the same character over and over, pudgy loser that plays air guitar and scats at every opportunity cause he’s all quirky like that.
Him and Pratt need to go away for a while
I totally agree.
Also I just saw your user name and I started imagining a movie pitch in my head and laughed. Thank you for making my day
I want it directed by the ghost of Ralph Bakshi. Plenty of rotoscope and rough surrealism
He’s like Adam Sandler in some of his roles, too. Pudgy loser man… married to or dating a knock out super model.

Minecraft movie would have been so much better without Jack Black.
Steven Seagal, he’s complete garbage on every level. He can’t act, he can’t run, he’s a sex trafficker and rapist, and his whole career was started with a bet by producers to make the most incapable and unlikable person famous.
Also, aikido, he can’t even do a stupid useless fake “martial art” invented to sell to suburbanite children properly.
Did you not see that demonstration where he effortlessly destroys an entire dojo of people by wrist-flipping them one at a time without moving his hands more than 20cm?
Thats raw skill.
That’s a good point, most of them didn’t even come in contact with him before they went flying through the air. Probably a chakra thing, just using raw spirit energy like Naruto.
Jared Leto. All his best roles are the ones that could have been better, if they were played by someone else.
Agreed, but it’s kinda fun seeing him get walloped in Fight Club tho
That is true. Good call.
Requiem for a Dream, though.
See he is the opposite for me. He always seems well cast and he can act. I just dislike him as a person.
Like Mark Wahlberg, I like him IN things I’ve just never seen him in an interview or casual thing where I didnt think “I believe that IRL he is an asshole”
Is there a movie where he (Wahlberg) doesn’t play “Jersey boy who made good”? I feel like it’s always the same character with a different job facing a different crisis.
That new one where he plays a pilot/hitman looks interesting. I havent seen it yet but it is a departure from type.
The Happening
You think Wahlberg is a Jersey boy? What country do you come from? He has an incredibly noticeable Massachusetts accent which isn’t anything like New Jersey’s accent
Who would you cast in his place in Dallas Buyers Club?
Tom Cruise. No exceptions. Even when I don’t realize it’s him in a role (which was basically limited to his role in Tropic Thunder), his performances still irritate me.
I agree, but I’ll watch Edge of Tomorrow or Oblivion if they’re on.
Edge of Tomorrow is just Tom Cruise getting killed over and over again. It’s great for people who hate Tom Cruise!
Oblivion is so underrated. I feel like I never see people talking about it but it’s a legitimately solid sci-fi movie with an amazing score.
Much better plot execution than the Island. Visually stunning. I like the architecture too.
I would say his role in Magnolia is the exception.
Not a Cruise fan myself, or NASCAR, but I do like Days of Thunder.
Also staring Nicole Kidman, Micheal Rooker, and Robert Duvall.
Every time I see a train of traffic approaching behind me as I floor it on an on ramp to the interstate I say to myself “IF YOU DON’T GET ME OUT IN FRONT OF THAT PACE CAR THIS RACE IS OVER!”
Will Smith and his one facial expression.
I’m so glad I’m not the only one who just absolutely can’t stand him in movies or just in general. It has been pretty good watching his entire life burn to the ground.
Welcome to the Willenium, bitch
I can’t stand Adam Sandler movies. Exceptions: The Wedding Singer and 50 First Dates.
Also Punch-Drunk Love.
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.
Such a strange little, uhm, love(?) story!
Or you just really like Drew Barrymore movies!
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.
Jamie Foxx and his associates were at an adjacent table at at restaurant in LA years ago. He was a total cunt to wait staff. Pure asshole to his core. Restaurant comped our meal because he ruined the evening for everyone.
That’s fucking disappointing to know.
James Corden
The first thing in which I saw him was the Doctor Who episode The Lodger and I thought he was likeable enough in that. I could never stand him in anything else, his late-night talk show run was a blight on humanity, and even the return appearance of his Who character in a second episode was entirely unnecessary.
I first saw him in Teachers and hated him immediately for reasons unknown. I think my future hatred transcended space and time and connected me at that moment.
I can only stand him as Smithy.
My wife laothes Tom Cruise. Hard stop. No exceptions. I don’t have any problems with him as an actor, the Scientology insanity is a whole other matter.
…maybe one exception: I was able to talk her into seeing Edge of Tomorrow by telling her that he dies 26 times on-screen and countless times off-screen.
…maybe one exception: I was able to talk her into seeing Edge of Tomorrow by telling her that he dies 26 times on-screen and countless times off-screen.
I apologise if this seems inappropriate, but I kinda like your wife now. And you for putting that argument up in the first place.
Not at all inappropriate to me! Cheers
Have her watch Tropic Thunder and dont mention his cameo. Its his best work.
Hollywood is starting to make me dislike Pedro Pascal only because he’s in EVERY DAMN THING.
I actually like the guy, but overexposure is a thing. And he could stand to just chill for a little while.
I don’t mind since he’s such a good person in real life, but I see how overexposure can be a problem
Agreed, I was worried the same would happen to Allen Tudyk but then I watched three Allen Tudyk shows in a row and realized it’s actually really hard to get sick of him for some reason.
The first one that comes to mind is Jared Leto. Can’t stand him in any role but I will tolerate him in Requiem for a Dream. And even then I’ve only seen that movie once which is more than enough.
I highly recommend The Little Things where he did a great job even though I hate him too. He was good enough to break through my disgust for him as a person and just be disgusted purely by the character he portrayed.
I couldn’t stand Jason Statham. Then many years ago I watched Spy with Melissa McCarthy and he was the perfect piss take of his characters from so many other movies. Example scene that shows his comedic stupidity. Ever since I haven’t minded the guy.
If you want another comedic stupidity, he has some funny parts in Snatch. Can’t be bothered to watch his copy&paste action movies, too, though.
Oh that clip is brilliant. Must give the movie a watch.
It’s fantastic! I haven’t seen it in a little bit, I think I’ll watch it tonight.
Adam Sandler. I personally feel that his humour is aimed at school children - making silly faces and silly voices and basically making fun of the disabled or neuroatypical - but it’s marketed to adults.
But I like 50 First Dates. He’s mostly not a shouting toddler in that.
I thought Sandler in Uncut Gems was pretty good. It’s a serious role, that made me rethink all of the campy comedies he’s done.
Will Farrell and people who have the same “try hard” comedy style as Will Farrell; Steve Carrell, Ben Stiller, etc.
Agree. Stranger than fiction is my exception. Edit: Actually read the post. Op has good taste.
