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.

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.

Jared Leto. All his best roles are the ones that could have been better, if they were played by someone else.

Who would you cast in his place in Dallas Buyers Club?

Justin Long. I can't stand him for some reason. There are only 2 exceptions:

Idiocracy - because that movie is so great otherwise and he is only in it for like 2 minutes.
Tusk - Because the whole movie is about someone torturing him.

Chris Pratt's only good films were the Guardians of the Galaxy fims and the Lego Movie and his face wasn't even in one of those.

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.

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.

Mark Wahlberg is a racist that once tried to beat a Vietnamese person to death while shouting "I hate the Vietnamese" and other racist shit in the past.

I absolutely agree with you about Stranger Than Fiction. Mine would be Adam Sandler, do not like that style of comedy. The only exception is Punch Drunk Love. One of my favourite movies! Also Jim Carey, except for Yes Men.

Jeremy Renner.

Has he ever actually been good in anything (besides the Jeremy Renner app and his legendary rock and roll music)?

Tom Cruise - Dudes a freak and a weirdo but Tropic Thunder was funny af.

Will Smith - After the Oscar’s.

The rock - Phony and plays the same person all the time.

Vince Vaughn

[–] QuoVadisHomines@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago

Vaughn plays against type in Freaky which was pretty good.
