Actors or Actresses you cant stand

Jack Black - The only movies of his I liked were School of Rock (sort of) and the Kung Fu Panda films.

Jon Heder - Napoleon Dynamite was not funny and his face is just obnoxious.

Nicolas Cage - Was this guy ever taken seriously as an actor?

Will Ferrell - Just...just because.

I know, I'm a hater. :p
Don't even know who Jon Heder is, but I'm right there with you on Cage and Ferrell.

As for Jack Black, I haven't watched much of his stuff, but that's because he keeps making the type of movies I wouldn't like, so I probably wouldn't like him in them. But he was good in King Kong, which was a surprisingly good film overall.

Can't stand...
Adam Sandler

Adam Sandler

I think Adam Sandler is annoying more often than not.

In contrast, i used to like Adam Sandler way back when, but later came to dislike him due to basically him having almost exactly the same role in most of his movies and the general reducing quality (to really silly extents in my opinion) of the movies he takes part in.

His character and the type of humor he relies on got annoying and very uncreative over time, in my view.

Adam Sandler x 1000. I can't enjoy anything with him in it. 80% of his movies is him playing the same slightly mentally challenged person, doing incredibly dumb stuff, and the other 20% is him trying to be serious but still sounding like he has a bowl of grapes in his mouth. I can't tell if it's on purpose or if that's just how he sounds. I'll walk out of the room if he comes on the TV.

Alright, I just saw two Adam Sandler movies in a 24 hour period. I gotta say, im actually starting to like him :shrug:
:slap: There, just knocked some sense back into you. :kissbette

Oh, I forget about King Kong!

Better add that to the list of Jack Black films I do like, but my opinion of him still stands.

There are quite a few -- none come to mind at the moment.

Adam Sandler though...not at all funny to me.

I really dont understand why im starting to like Adam Sandler; I used to vehemently dislike him, like you guys. I dunno, he's just grown on me now :shrug:

This prob dont qualify...
Ellen D
I can not stand that woman, she is the biggest fake in HollyWood.
She cant even buy gifts for a friends newborn w/o making sure the whole world knows.
Seriously, to have another movie star on who just gave birth and have a whole truck load of toys brought out.
You do not get any more shallow than that.

Bob NewHart, not sure if he is even still alive but he is a huge lump of arrogance and not even remotely funny to me.
Archie Bunker at least was funny.

Bout it, I love the rest of the world of HollyWood.
They do a decent job at putting people in the right character.

Poor Leo D though, that man deserves an Oscar already.
Whats he have to do, actually die on set, in the movie to actually win?

He has to hope his film is released in a year where there are no better/as-good performances.

It's like Forrest Gump vs Shawshank Redemption, each film would have surely got best picture in separate years, but they had to be in the same one, so only one could win.

I dont really follow the oscars so I didn't realize what you said.
I only knew about Leo from Imgur, when he lost, they had a field day on there "bragging" on the constellation prizes the nominees get"
He has "won" many of those.
cant they do something if there is so many worthy people and give out more than one?
Tons of movies come out all the time now, the oscars needs to adapt?

Giving out multiple prizes would sort of ruin it a bit I think, I like that it's a bit more competitive, that there can only be one winner. It makes the prize extra special and much more notable. If there are multiple winners it will no longer be the "best picture" or the "best actor", it will be "great picture" or "great actor". These are already recognised for being nominated in the first place. If you give out multiple prizes, it'll open the floodgates to giving out awards to just great films, rather than the best films, the awards themselves will lose their grandeur, it'll no longer be as big a deal as it was.

And I was referring to the Oscars in 1994 where both Forrest Gump and Shawshank Redemption was nominated for Best Picture. Forrest Gump won out in the end.

makes sense, so the more competition, the more special the award is.
