Rick moranis?
I knew it, I’m surrounded by Assholes
Gene Hackman had a pretty good run
All my life, I would always watch ANY movie that Gene Hackman was in. I never saw him give a bad performance.
The Conversation is one of the best movies I’ve ever seen. The feeling you get from that movie is so strange and I love it.
Christopher Walken?
A View to a Kill is one of the worst bond movies
A shame too because it was such a waste to use Walken and Duran Duran in such a crappy movie.
2 people I know watched Mouse Hunt for the first time this month and both hated it. Not really his movie though, I guess
Biloxi Blues, baby.
“You would need two promotions to get to be an asshole.”
John Cazale
Yep, this is the one I was scrolling down to find.
Godfather.
Godfather 2.
The Conversation.
Dog Day Afternoon.
The Deer Hunter.All five Best Picture Oscar nominees, three winners.
Possibly the only proper answer if we put a minimum on the number of films required to be considered.
I like pretty much anything Fred Ward was in. Remo Williams will never die
Remo Williams is an under-rated masterpiece. It should have been an extended franchise, but they weren’t really much into that back then.
dobermans chasing you up ladders is nightmare fuel.
Miami Blues was such a treat.
Me. I’m not in any films.
I’m not a huge fan of Tom Cruise and also never watched the MI franchise, but otherwise he knows how to pick good scripts… Last Samurai, Vanilla Sky, Tropic Thunder, Minority Report, Top Gun, Rain man, Edge of Tomorrow, The Firm. There are still a bunch I never saw so there may be some rotten tomatoes in the basket
Agree he had a very high hit rate, and personal life aside, I enjoy most of his movies.
But MI:2 and MI:3 are mediocre at best, and Knight and Day and Rock of Ages were massive flops (I haven’t seen either, but i they look horrible). Cocktail earned him a razzie nomination.
Don’t forget The Mummy remake, it was so bad they cancelled the Dark Universe because of it.
““Kurtzman called the experience “brutal” and described The Mummy as “probably the biggest failure” of his life.””
Ah, I’ve even seen that one! Good call
Eyes Wide Shut. What a piece of crap.
Knight and Day is 100% forgettable straight to streaming crap.
But Rock of Ages was as good as it could’ve been
He was kind of amazing in Rock of Ages. That was a unique character in his catalogue, I’ve never seen him play a role anything like it.
Im also a big fan of Les Grossman.
His Scientology bullshit creeps me out to the max, but i have to admit that i will watch any movie he makes, because they are always good, and sometimes great.
Do yourself a favor, and watch the MI series. They are nonsensical but really fun, with some of the best action sequences ever filmed, and he does the stunts himself. They also get better as the series comtinues.
Hollywood lore on YouTube hasn’t done a video on him yet.
A Few Good Men has my favourite Tom Cruise roll
He DOES have some bad movies, but not many. I really don’t like the guy either, but I like a lot of his movies. You forgot Oblivion and Jerry Maguire for instance.
I’d also add Eyes Wide Shut
deleted by creator
James Dean. Credited in only 3 films (appeared in a few more as an extra):
- East of Eden
- Rebel Without a Cause
- Giant
All 3 are above average on IMDb (> 7).
Viggo Mortensen
If only he skipped Daylight.
Probably Daniel Day Lewis. He’s extremely picky about what he’s in.
Nine was poorly reviewed by critics and audiences.
But otherwise his choices have been solid.
Phantom Thread was amazing… Might need to watch that one again
My wife and son love that movie, and want to watch it about once a year. I despise it. Boring, and really, really stupid.
I could understand someone finding it boring, but what was really really stupid about it?
A love story about poisoning?
You can reduce literally any film to one sentence that makes it sound stupid.
“Citizen Kane is stupid, its a story about a rich guy who really liked his sled.”
Even still… oversimplification aside, I don’t see anything inherently stupid about “a love story about poisoning”
I find the basic premise to be too implausible to be entertaining.
Did you watch the film, or…?
Joe Cazale! Only five movies, but all five awarded nominees for Oscar Best Picture!
Tom Hanks.
I’ve never seen a bad Tom Hanks movie.
Tom Hanks is close, but Cloud Atlas exists.
Cloud Atlas was brilliant.
I wanted to like Cloud Atlas. It felt like it was fighting itself for air time. I’ll give it another try someday.
It really was.
He is in this abomination of a book adaptation for Incredibly loud and extremely close.
I actually kinda liked it and btw it was nominated for best picture
You should make sure to say T. Hanks.
Elvis. Sully. There’s two right off the top of my head.
Fuck the film Sully for dragging the NTSB through the mud for fake drama. Absolute fucking hack writing that disrespects heroes of safety.
Tim Curry.
And before you tell me he was in some notoriously shit movies, no they weren’t, Tim Curry was in those movies, so they’re great movies.
Muppets Treasure Island. 🎤🫳⬇️
That episode of Lexx was good too
I love that man.
LOL, yup, this.
This should have won him a Oscar (BAFTA?)
Prime example: Oscar (1991)
It got bad reviews (I loved it) but Curry’s performance was amazing.
I was going to say Gary Oldman, but then I remembered that Tiptoes wasn’t a fever dream.
I was going to say “OJ Simpson”, knowing he was in The Naked Gun. I figured he got the part because of his notority as a football player, and figured it was his only film.
Turns out he’s been acting since at least the mid 70s. He’s been in lile 15 movies. Which is kind of weird, knowing what he did later.
So, I guess I can’t say O.J Simpson…
He guest starred in an episode of a children’s show “Adventures in Wonderland”. The episode never aired because of the whole murder incident. So the episode was filmed so close to the time of the murder, it didn’t make it to air. Did he know he was going to commit murder while he was acting in a children’s show?
Were they bad, though?
Yes
Bill Cosby and OJ Simpson … how can you go wrong!?
What do you mean? They were both acquitted of their crimes.
I’ve never heard of any of them besides the naked gun movies.
So probably.
nvm
