Or was a script even written and they were just making things up as they went along.

He's a black guy that is good at playing a black guy. Really not that impressive.

Brendan Fraser. REASON: Terrible delivery, and the Mummy sucks.

Cuba Gooding Jr. REASON: Oh, look at me I'm Cuba Gooding Jr., I have lots of charisma, but after seeing my shtick once it gets old and unbearable.
Also, that movie where he's on the gay boat was, and continues to be, the bane of the earth.


Brendon Fraser is a far better actor than most people give him credit for.

Adam Sandler, because there's barely a single good joke in any of the films he's in.. Although I already mentioned that in the Adam Sandler topic.


I like Brendan Fraser too! :) Adam Sandler, Cuba Gooding Jr, Jim Carrey, Angelina Jolie, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Orlando Bloom and Nicholas Cage are among my most hated actors.

Re: Actors You Hate

Got to agree with Cuba Gooding jr. He's probably the best example of someone who thinks they can act, and is apt at fooling most people of this fiction.

I think Ethan Hawke has the highest rated average out of anyone, but I think he's rubbish; he sweats pretension. I guess he just picks scripts I find interesting.

Cary Grant. I hate Cary Grant.

Actors You Hate

Kind of in the same vein as the Tom Cruise topic, who are some actors you hate for one reason or another? My favorites to hate:

Brendan Fraser. REASON: Terrible delivery, and the Mummy sucks.

Cuba Gooding Jr. REASON: Oh, look at me I'm Cuba Gooding Jr., I have lots of charisma, but after seeing my shtick once it gets old and unbearable.
Also, that movie where he's on the gay boat was, and continues to be, the bane of the earth.

James Franco REASON: Okay, I don't hate him, he's just terrible in every serious role.


k, I can't think of anyone else. Hah, I hope Criminal5 chimes in, I know who he'll pick. Hint: his name rhymes with Job Fneider.
