Actors that you just cannot stand, to the point where you avoid their films

Discussion in 'Movies & Televison: Reviews, Discussions & Debate' started by Destruction and Mayhem, Feb 15, 2017.

  1. How are some actors that get on your nerves so much that you are likely to not watch any film that they are involved in?


    For me it's Cuba Gooding Jnr

    I don't think I avoid any movie just because a specific actor might be in it. If the director is good enough they know an actors limitations and can use them properly.

    Examples of actors I don't really rate but will still watch their movies:

    George Clooney - He's gotten a ton better, but earlier in his career he was not very skilled or nuanced as an actor, but he had a certain charisma, knew his limitations and almost always picked good directors and movies to be in.

    Vin Diesel - Probably a worst case scenario for me, but he WAS in "Saving Private Ryan" and I've somewhat enjoyed some of his Sci-Fi stuff that he's made along with "Find Me Guilty" which he was passable in.

    Paul Walker - Had the charisma of a bag of rocks, but I enjoyed "Eight Below" and "Running Scared", and he was actually decent in "Pawn Shop Chronicles" at the end of his career.

    Cuba Gooding Jr. - "Boyz In The Hood", "People vs. O.J. Simpson", "Jerry McGuire", "Gifted Hands - The Ben Carson Story".............................................ok, I'm joking about that last one. :lol:

    Will Smith
    luckily he has never been in a good movie, so i'm not missing much
     
  10. Easy:
    Johnny Depp (decent enough when he doesnt ´powder-up´, stupid costumes and camp things beyond belief in Tim Burton movies for US$50 million a picture. Unfortunately, thats what he been doing for the last 10 years)
    Will Smith (obvious reasons - just over-bearingly smug on and off-screen....to the point where you think ´´he isn´t acting: this is how the cunt is, day-in, day-out´´)

    Will Smith and Tyler Perry.
     
  12. Yes Will Smith has become intolerable
     
  13. Cuba Gooding Jnr just annoys the fuck out of me though. Can't stand that cunt

    Cuba hasn't been a relevant actor in a VERY long time. And nobody actually considers Cuba a great actor like they do Will.

    Have you ever seen:

    Boys in the Hood
    Gladiator (Cuba Gooding)
    Instinct
    Men of Honor
    Jerry McGuire
    As Good as it Gets
    The People vs. OJ


    Cuba was terrific in all of them. And i dont even like him.

    Cuba is actually a better actor than Will Smith

    Have you seen:

    Invincible
    Boogie Nights
    Fear
    The Departed
    Pain & gain
    Deepwater Horizon
    Lone Survivor
    Broken City
    The Fighter
    The other Guys
    Three KIngs


    Mark was very good and sometimes excellent in all of them.
     
  18. True, I was a bit confused with Sly´s dislike of him.

    Will Smith though - I cant think of anything except the trio from 10 years ago of: I Am Legend / Hancock (to a degree) and The Pursuit Of Happyness...that I enjoyed him in....

    Oh I fully agree that Cuba is a better actor than Will.

    Smith is a fuckin hack!

    Cuba gets lots of heat from many. He often plays a clown on screen and can be annoying, but Cuba can turn it off and put in some amazing performances.

    i find Clive Owen pretty unlikable too, constantly looks like he's sniffing his own farts

    oh fuck aye, orlando bloom too. That boy ever getting a single acting job is the british class system in full swing
     
  22. He's a shitong!
     
  23. This is not about being a bad actor or a good actor, it's about having a personal disdain for a particular actor for whatever reason

    Well this is actually about avoiding a film because of an actor.

    Answer the question.
     
  26. I don't have to answer shit

    I'm pretty indifferent toward Cuba Gooding Jr. I'm neither a fan nor do I particularly dislike him. He's "just there" for me.

    Smith on the other hand, fuck that WHOLE FAMILY! Fuck Will, Jada, his slutty little daughter and his faggot son.

    OHHH and add this annoying midget to the list.... KEVIN HART! I fucking RE....FUSE to watch a Kevin Hart movie.
     
  28. I've seen boys in the hood, jerry McGuire, radio and one other Gooding film. The guy gets on my bloody nerves so I don't watch anymore
     
  29. I used to like will smith films but I went completely off him when he went out of his way trying to promote the career of that cornrows wearing, no talent having, cross dressing son of his.

    Now I avoid him like the plague. I despise his masquerade and the dishonest way he portrays himself, him and his whole fucking family (in the voice of the Senator from Godfather 2)
     
  30. Cuba has one of the most punchable faces in Hollywood. And no, he's not a particularly good actor. In boys in the hood the kid that played a ten year old Trey was a far better actor than Cuba was in that film. Shiiiiiiit....Ice Cube was better than Cuba in Boyz.
