Original thread: http://www.cyburbia.org/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=2088

My picks:
-Kevin Costner
-Sylvester Stallone
-Steven Seagall
-Chuck Norris
-Rob Schneider
-Leonardo Di Caprio

I might be forgetting many... Anyways, let's talk about the subject again, add more actors for the ones that already posted on the original thread, and the ones that did not post before (like me), should post it here :)

This is not a BTDT, I know that there is a thread... but it's like a year old... :p
 
Martin Short
Cher
Jane Fonda
Suzane Sarandon
Tim Robbins
Goldie Hawn
Martin Sheen
Rob Reiner
Pauly Shore
Chuck Norris
ALL THE BALDWINS

I'm sure I'll come up with more.
 
Especially Bad - Hanoi Jane, Cher, Kevin Costner, Chuck Norris, William Hurt, Pauly Shore, Leonard Decrapio, Alan Alda, Kirstie Ally, Ed Asner, Rosanne, McCauley Culkin, Ashton Kutcher (WTF! Hey dude, where's your talent?)

Just Bad - Tim Allen, Don Knotts, Hugh Grant, David Duchovney, Michael Caine (except in Rourke's Drift)
 
Pauly Shore. Although, can we really consider him an "actor"

Pick a Baldwin, any Baldwin.

Nicholas Cage, who has made a career out of looking tortured and constipated.

Vin Diesel
 
Paris Hilton. I know she's hasn't been in any movies yet, but I just wanted to get a head start since I'm sure some idiot movie exec will put her in one!

Also:
Ozzy's kids
Musicians that think they are actors
Actors that think they are musicians
 
Any current or former sports figure, i.e., O.J. Simpson, Ray Allen.

Also:

Tom Arnold
J. Ho
Cory Feldman
Cory Haim
Scott Baio
 
Julia Roberts - I hate that crocodile face, and the way she screams "WOH!" in every commercial. Why do people think she's so beautiful?

Bill Pulman - the ultimate boring leading man
Nicholas Cage - thinks he's Elvis in every movie
Jeff Daniels
Wesley Snipes
Bennifer
Madonna
Cher
Bette Midler
Barbra Streisand
Whoopie Goldberg
Calista Flockheart
Gov. Schwartzenneger
 
The ones I forgot:

  • Martin short - simply annoying.
  • Cher
  • Barbara Streisand - Any movie with her is absolutely banned from my house, unless you want me to go on a shooting rampage.
  • Vin Diesel - please oh please crash and die in this movie! FOR REAL!
  • Ozzy's Kids
  • Bette Midler
 
Wow. It's amazing how we despise the same ones.

Barbara Streisand
Jennifer Tilly
Britney Spears
David Spade
Pauly Shore
Cher
Harvey Fierstein
Adam Sandler
Brad Pitt
Susan Sarandon (I'd put Tim Robbins here too, if I didn't like his movies)
All the teen actors on Fox and the WB who act in real life as if they deserve all the attention they get, but bring nothing to the screen
and

Katie Couric
Matt Lauer
Ann Curry
all are Hollywood brownosers/left-wing activists ACTING like journalists
 
I hate Dana Carvey. Hate him. He is the most unfunny person on the planet. His impressions are terrible. His comedy is terrible. And if I hear him do George Bush one more time I may toss my cookies. That Lays commercial he does (The one in Vegas) fills me with rage. The terrible movie that bombed at the box office (Master of Disguise) drove me to drink every time there was a commercial on for it. He has lost his sense of what is funny and relies on the same jokes far too much. It is 2003 and I think he still sings "Choppin' Brocoli".

I'll stick with just SNL cast members on this one. Here's my list:

Dana Carvey
Maya Rudolph - she uses the same old lady voice for every character over 30

Kevin Nealon - was good in the news and that's all
Ellen Cleghorne - loud and obnoxious in a bad way
Jim Breuer - who thought he was funny? people at a Phish concert? (Sorry Phish)
Victoria Jackson - her best character? her standing on her head wearing a x-mas tree costume and singing. 'Nuff said.
Joe Piscopo - his post SNL career is laughable. Good Sinatra though
Molly Shannon - not a superstar.
Julia Sweeney - I hate her voice. Pat sucked too. (Sorry Pat)

and in some instances when they are acting together and they mess up their lines and think it is hilarious and crack up on screen - Jimmy Fallon and Horatio Sanz

Tony Danza
Jan Hooks
Roseanne

and the "use my acting career as a political motive" actor. Guess I'd better add Sean Penn, Susan Sarandon, and Tim Robbins to the list.
 
I don't have a list because I think acting as a profession should be considered a somewhat sleazy, disreputable profession whose practitioners are not allowed to enter the front door or mix with polite company. Just like in the good ol' days.

Hence, they as a class are not worth the thought :)
