kurt russell is a good example, but man i love almost all of his movies

12/9/2008 11:10:02 AM

exactly. he plays a great over-the-top actor that it's become his thing. bad actors like keanu reeves try to play serious roles but end up making them all bill & ted. if he just played "whoa" roles, i might respect him.

is this thread really...

list your favorite character actor

because I think that's probably what the deal is

12/9/2008 1:43:46 PM

Bruce Campbell!

12/9/2008 2:34:43 PM

Actors who can't act in the sense that they play the same role over and over again or simply play themselves is one thing. Who are the famous people who genuinely need to stay the fuck off of the screen?

My vote goes out to Keanu Reeves. He's more wooden than a carpenter's workshop.

12/9/2008 2:34:58 PM

lafta is quite possibly the most consistently stupid poster on TWW.

12/9/2008 3:06:18 PM

Sylvester Stallone and Ben Affleck

let us not forget the talking statue that is Steven Seagal.

12/9/2008 5:29:17 PM

Al Pacino

12/9/2008 5:47:25 PM

The entertainment section always serves to remind me how easily amused i am. I'm aghast and well over half the people mentioned in this thread.

his 'expression' as you call it is only similar in the first two

and fortunately, movies are not static jpgs

they are moving video with audio, and in all three of those performances he is a completely different person

12/9/2008 8:46:09 PM

whatever, woodfoot

brandt is just like lester bangs, and he's just like caden cotard

^^ I really hope you're kidding.

John Travolta hasn't done anything good in forever.

12/9/2008 10:16:54 PM

You don't see what he did there?

And Travolta's last triumph was Phenomenon

12/9/2008 10:44:27 PM

travolta was great in pulp fiction, unlike some other people

12/9/2008 11:06:01 PM

other people

Nicolas Cage is mentioned several times in this thread. I would like to add three more.

Nicolas Cage.
Nicolas Cage.
Nicolas Cage.

12/10/2008 3:08:20 PM

WTF is a damn character actor...i hate that term. every actor is a damn character actor, they are all playing a character in a movie

12/10/2008 3:23:00 PM

Clive Owen

You have a low voice. You're an extreme badass thief/warrior/action hero. You deliver grim lines in dark style. We get.

12/10/2008 4:44:33 PM

danny mcbride is dynamite in all the real girls

12/10/2008 5:09:30 PM

ben affleck

12/10/2008 5:25:49 PM

Cage is a good actor, he just takes every movie, no matter how shitty apparently.

Clive Owen is a good actor too, come on. Closer.

PSH being in this thread is laughable.

I figured Shia Lebeouf would be in here somewhere by now. I thought he was pretty crappy in the new Indy movie or maybe it was just the whole movie that sucked.

12/10/2008 9:32:02 PM

vin diesel. or any other actor hopped up on roids

12/10/2008 9:37:15 PM

vin diesel
Matthew McConaughey
nicholas cage
bill pullman
bill paxton

12/10/2008 9:51:20 PM

Nicholas Cage is absolute shit.

except as HI McDonough.

I'd like to add Al Pacino, EXCEPT for in Scent of a Woman, and Carlito's Way.

[Edited on December 11, 2008 at 9:09 AM. Reason : asdfasfasdffff]

12/11/2008 9:09:20 AM

have you not seen Scarface?

because outside the "OMG he's italian, not cuba" and the annoying pretend gangsters who DO NOT get the fucking point of the movie

it's a pretty kick ass film and Pacino does an excellent job

12/11/2008 9:15:34 AM

Watch Godfather 1 & 2, then watch Scarface.

The fact that that's the same human being is proof of how great an actor Al Pacino is at his best.

[Edited on December 11, 2008 at 9:43 AM. Reason : I'll also add that this thread starts and ends with Keanu, the best godawful actor of our time]

12/11/2008 9:41:50 AM

12/11/2008 9:52:21 AM

Serpico, Dog Day Afternoon...and someone already mentioned Godfather I and II.

He did fairly well in Heat and Donnie Brasco too.

12/11/2008 11:59:24 AM

I liked Al Pacino in Ocean's 13 and Two For the Money (with Matthew McConaughey)
