Most OVERrated actors/actresses

Post by The Dark »

Sorry, but this topic begged to be made after Hooligan made the underrated thread. Here's some of my own:

Tobey Maguire...every movie he does, he has this look on his face that just screams "I have no idea what I'm doing"

Only one I can think of at 2:10 in the morning, may have more tomorrow (if I finish my term paper).

(OK, I'm pulling a verilon and not falling asleep, but whatever...)

The cast of Seinfeld. It just wasn't that funny to me. Frasier was better (although it's been going downhill too).

In your opinion. He's learning to branch out, but in some genres, he's WAY overused.

I do think he's better at serious drama than most critics give him credit for. He was quite good in Dead Poets Society, but the critics blasted him because it wasn't about his character. He keeps taking these awful roles, though.

I must second Tom Cruise. I hate hate hatedy hate him. Julia Roberts. How fitting that her breakout role was that of a whore. Mel Gibson. Just go away Mel! You gay-bashing right wing asshole.

P.S. I first heard the rumor that Tom Cruise is gay in 1984, before he was really a household name. I will also say that I heard this rumor from a gay friend, who claimed to see him in an act of public display of affection at a gay club. For whatever it's worth.

I like Matt Dilon!

But for me, the most overated actor; Gwenith Paltrow.

I mean she isn't bad or anything, but how in the world she won the Oscar against Cate Blanchette I will never know.... Didn't anyone else think that she was just AMAZING in Elizabeth?


Warning: Mention Cate as overated and I WILL smite you! :twisted:

George Clooney

*awaits thrashings*

Sorry, I just kinda think he can't act at all.

Oh...wait......there are only 3 other chicks here. The other 3249872394 members are guys! They (probably) aren't infatuated with him! I'll bet no one thrashes me with anything!

Damn. :wink: :twisted: :wink:
