This thread was inspired by my watching Scanners today and being unable to contain my laughter nearly every time lead Stephen Lack delivered a line. I was going to title this thread "Bad acting in good movies," but then we wouldn't be able to discuss people like Tommy Wiseau in The Room.

just watched a bunch of movies on scifi the past two days. soooo much bad acting.

also, those clips from "The Room" (of which I have never heard) are cracking me up.

that was definitely the scene with the worst acting i've seen since the moth man prophecies via richard gere trying to act his way out of a paper sack, and failing

Holy shit. Those clips from the room were used a tim and eric episode. I thought tim and eric dubbed over the scenes themselves as a joke. How could something like this be real?

Elizabeth Berkley in Showgirls--but it didn't matter because she was hot as fuck.

7/30/2009 2:08:26 PM

except she wasn't.

big flat square ass =

7/30/2009 2:13:39 PM

Her ass was round enough and shapely enough for heterosexuals.

7/30/2009 2:17:11 PM

^I don't know what you guys are talking about, greatest acting job ever

7/30/2009 5:52:16 PM

Pool sex scene where she flails around like a harpooned swordfish FTW

7/30/2009 6:34:46 PM

^ She was a natural in that scene--no acting necessary.
