Actors and Actresses You Detest

[kah]

Who are those actors that mere mention of makes you cringe? Whose names will keep you from seeing a movie, no matter how many people tell you it's the greatest thing ever made? (No dead people, please. It's only fair to hate the living.)


Matthew Broderick
Kevin Spacey
Leonardo DiCaprio
Edward Furlong
Sam Neil
Julianne Moore
Jennifer Lopez
Nicholas Cage

[omicron]

Chris Klein. His whispery surfer dude that he portrays in almost every movies I've seen him in drives me nuts.

Jodie Foster. She always seems like she's on the verge of tears and is talking while grinding her molar when she acts.

Omi

[sickness]

I was gonna come to the defense of Matthew Broderick by mentioning Biloxi Blues but then realized he sucked in that, too, and that I had it confused with Heartbreak Ridge with Clint Eastwood (which I though featured Broderick as a recruit... by the way, Heartbreak Ridge is pretty kickass).

[TrekSucksHard]

Hmmm, let me see...

Jim Carrey
Hillary Duff
The Olsen Twins

Thats it for now

[Trazalca]

Tori Spelling
(Princess Skank, Beverly Hills Skank, take your pick)

Robin Williams
(I can respect him in a drama. Even horror. But whenever anyone interviews him, or if he accepts any award or delivers any diatribe before a godforsaken microphone,
then I cringe my guts out and want to shove bamboo shoots into the corneas of my eyeballs.)

Tom Cruise
(Thanks to the losing of his flipping mind, I can only watch any movies of his
from War of the Worlds on back with a clear conscience. Anything after
that seems like a funding project for his Scientology group masked as
an action flick.)

Paris Hilton
(How does one respect someone too much in love with their own fame?
For absolutely everything she does, this talentless skank princess revels
in her own lack of talent like a pig in mud with no shame whatsoever.
I'll be staying far away from all Hilton enterprises, just so Daddy's little girl
won't be getting anything from me.)

[kah]

The only reason Paris Hilton and Tori Spelling aren't on my list is because they're not actresses. They're just skanks with money.

[DaForce]

Wow. I only have two questions for you, DaForce.

1. Who do you like?

2. What's wrong with Ben Kingsley?


1. That's a fairly long list. Here's a short list..

Gary Oldman
Christian Bale
Julianne Moore

2. For movies like Sneakers and Bloodrayne. For those two movies alone, it discredits his whole career.

HAHAHA!!! I will tell you Johnny Depp just got off of my Detestable list. Memories of Cry-Baby and 21 Jumpstreet take while to go away. A loooong while.:)

[Nostromo]

Meryl Streep and Woody Allen.

And I'm not sure what DaForce has against Vin Diesel. "Pitch Black" is quite simply ... VIN!!!! N

[TrekSucksHard]

I forgot to add Jennifer Love Blewit to my list. http://messageboard.cinescape.com/cinescape/forums/images/icons/icon13.gif

Ok, didn't see those, so I'll just have to trust you. Your like of J. Moore, however, makes me wonder about you. :dunno:

Count yourself lucky you never saw Sir Ben in "Thunderbirds."

(Don't blame me for seeing it, I have a kid.)

[Queen Mae]

About Ben Kingsley - I can't stand him, simply because he is an egotistical prick. My best friend studied at Oxford for a summer program and he was one of her teachers. He insisted that all of the students call him "Sir Ben" and he got indignant if anyone forgot the "sir." I couldn't wrap my head around this... it's not as if he earned the title of "sir" by fighting in a war, no no, he earned it by playing pretend (I'm not ditching actors here, my best friend studied at Oxford and Harvard to be an actress, I'm just being realistic). And for goodness sakes, as was already pointed out, he was in Thunderbirds!!!

On the flip side, Gwen (the aforementioned friend), said that Alan Rickman was so genuinely warm and caring. His ego, if he had one, did not get in the way of his teaching and he did not insist that everyone call him "Sir."

[neglet]

Mmmm, Alan Rickman. I'd pay to hear him read the phone book.

[Queen Mae]

Seriously.

I am so jealous of my friend. She called me after her class with him and said "oh god, 'Gina, he touched my shoulder. Alan Rickman touched me."

I will forever be jealous of her. Lucky bitch.

That same attitude makes me hate Diana Ross, or Miss Diana, as she insists on being called, and "don't you dare look directly at her". I mean, really, the rest of her face that isn't hideous might melt off.

[DaForce]

Ok, didn't see those, so I'll just have to trust you. Your like of J. Moore, however, makes me wonder about you. :dunno:


C'mon! If you've ever seen her in The Big Lebowski, you'll see why she's a favorite of mine. :wink:

I've seen live and in person that Katie Holmes has a bad attitude. I also don't care much for Natalie Merchant either more so because she rebuked my drunken advances at a coffee house...but thats a topic for another thread....Oh and I'm still bitter 11 years later.

[kah]

C'mon! If you've ever seen her in The Big Lebowski, you'll see why she's a favorite of mine. :wink:

That is the only movie that I can even tolerate her in.

[neglet]

Moore was cool in "Short Cuts" and wonderful in "The End of the Affair," but I'd agree it's hard to forgive her turn in "The Lost World."

[omicron]

C'mon! If you've ever seen her in The Big Lebowski, you'll see why she's a favorite of mine. :wink:


Plus she showed us her boobies in Boogie Nights. :eyebrow:

Omi

[Queen Mae]

Don't forget Jullianne Moore played identical cousins on the soap As the World Turns!

[Rowanberry]

Doesn't anybody else but me hate Mel Gibson?

I haven't been able to stand anything he's made after the Mad Max movies, except the voice of Rocky in Chicken Run.

[conman]

I f*cking hate Mel Gibson. He's another one of those "I lost my mind!" celebrities.

My short list (in no order):

- Hillary Duff
- Owen Wilson (what a p*ssy)
- Mel Gibson
- Jackie Chan
- Jet Li
- Chris Tucker (except MAYBE Jackie Brown)
- and not that I hate his movies but Jack Nicholson basically because he plays the same character in every damn movie and it's only getting sadder the older he gets.

[Intelligent_Design]

I like Mel Gibson.

[Nostromo]

"We Were Soldiers" and "Gallipoli" are two outstanding Mel Gibson pictures. N

[sickness]

I saw Gallipoli once in high school for a class and not since. I have distinct memories of it to this day. Freakin' awesome film!

[Asonokirk V 2.0]

Who are those actors that mere mention of makes you cringe? Whose names will keep you from seeing a movie, no matter how many people tell you it's the greatest thing ever made? (No dead people, please. It's only fair to hate the living.)


Matthew Broderick
Kevin Spacey
Leonardo DiCaprio
Edward Furlong
Sam Neil
Julianne Moore
Jennifer Lopez
Nicholas Cage


My List (Detest as people, due to first hand encounters):
Telly Savalas
Liza Minnelli
Jean-Claude Van Damme

My List (Don't like most of their films as actors, don't know as people):
Adam Sandler
Meryl Streep
Jim Belushi

I can't think of any more.
For those of you who don't like Mel Gibson, I've met him and he is a man of honor and integrity. I'd have him watch my back without hesitation.

I've heard Van-Damme and Minelli were just awful to be around. Very assured of their own importance. I've never heard that about Savalas, though.

I think their problem with Mel is his zealotry. Kind of like Tom Cruise's. I have to admit, I'm not a big fan of that, either. I have always been a huge fan of John Travolta, but the Battlefield Earth crap was a big downer for him. It's fine to be a zealot, but do it in your own home. People don't like having others' beliefs shoved in their faces. That's why no one likes Jehovah's Witnesses.

Oh- did I say that out loud? I meant to think that. Damn.

[sickness]

I actually work with a couple JW's and they're both nice people. I don't find them any more annoying than any other type of fundamentalist Christian. By annoying here, I don't mean to disdain anyone with strong beliefs, just that there needs to come a time when everyone realizes that its best to let sleeping dogs lie and agree to disagree.

[BeauButabi]

My List (Detest as people, due to first hand encounters):
Telly Savalas
:( That's too bad to hear. What were the details of your encounter with him, if you don't mind sharing?

I'm sure they are great people. I just don't like that one of their tenets requires them to come to my door in an attempt to convert me.

[sickness]

That's actually my favorite tenet of theirs because I love to talk philosophy of religion with them (knowing they don't have a snowball's chance in hell of converting me) and use as much of their time as possible so they won't get to at least one vulnerable schmuck that day.

[Bill_the_Pony]

We were discussing Steve Guttenberg in another thread here a couple days ago.

Also, Tom Cruise.

SO over his ridiculous antics. :rolleyes:

[jayce78]

Tom Cruise responds:


''You Talking to me ponyboy?'' ''I don't know what the hell you're smoking''.

http://img268.imageshack.us/img268/962/b1ca.png (http://imageshack.us)

''I'll show you! I'm already making 'Mission Impossible 4''.

''YYYYYyyyyeeeeaa!!!!''

[sickness]

Finally! He realizes when he's got a good thing going! Mission Impossible 3 is the only one of his movies to ever make me want a sequel! I'm just pissed that it took two -- count 'em... TWO -- mediocre movies in said series that had nothing in common with either TV series except the name before Tom and Friends got slapped upside the head and decided to do it right!!!

[fastcar]

Russell Crowe
Pure and simple. Even though I liked him in the Insider, he is a punk and I can't stand him personally.



Tom Cruise
For being a little bitch and going off the deep end with this scientology stuff.

[jayce78]

Right now I'd like to honor one of the greatest individuals to modern cinema -

''I'vve been in dis coountwy for 20 yrs and can'dt speak a clear lick of english , ha!! Bud loook at my boodie''!!!

[Penfold]

I personally can't stand David Spade.

[jayce78]

I don't think David Spade can stand David Spade . . . .

[Asonokirk V 2.0]

:( That's too bad to hear. What were the details of your encounter with him, if you don't mind sharing?

I was eating breakfast in the Universal Sheraton hotel, with Bjo Trimble, her husband and daughter. The room wasn't completely filled, but there were quite a few people eating. Telly S. came into the room from connecting door to the hotel proper, and, for no apparent reason I could guess at, began screaming profanities at the hostess, telling her "Don't you know who I am?" and just making a very loud and obnoxious scene. Everyone in the restaurant just looked at him and I couldn't figure out what he could possibly be upset about, since he just walked in and started yelling. I'd been there about 30 minutes, and hadn't seen him up to that point. He was still throwing a fit as I left the hotel restaurant and got on an elevator to go to my room. He came along and got on the same elevator. I looked at him and he started yelling again, about how badly he was being treated and what he thought of it. Nothing he said made any sense whatsoever. I think he was high on something.

Anyway, he got off the elevator before I did and when I talked to people later, no one could figure out what he was mad about, including the restaurant staff.

At that point, I figured he was just a nutcase.

[rappites]

Cameron Diaz
Demi Moore
Gwyneth Paltrow
Penelope Cruz
Renée Zellweger

Luke Wilson

[DaForce]

I forgot to add Jennifer Anniston to the list.



When will this bitch stop remaking the same type of movie over and over and over again?



I can see why Brad left her repetitive a$$.




.

[McJester]

(Just coming in)
I find Anniston annoying, but I dont detest her, shes good at crying... 8-]
I think I have a hard time admiting to detsting an actor when I know they are capable of doing great work...
Mel Gibson, you have to give him Brave Heart!
Nicholas Cage, Hes doing good lately with The Weather Man, I like Adaptation and Matchstick Men too.
Even Ashton Kutcher, turned my opinion of his character acting right around when I saw The Butterfly Effect.
But I can understand everyone's opinion, just trying to bring up some debatables...

So my list is short
I know I dont like Sean William Scott, ANNOYING!
Not too big a fan of Ben Affleck
Chris Rock... yeah
I know there is more... I just cant think of em right now!

[sickness]

Seann William Scott definitely goes on my short list. He doesn't want to be known as Stifler?? Then DON'T PLAY HIM 3 FREAKIN' TIMES AND PROCEED TO PLAY A CARBON COPY OF HIM IN EVERY OTHER MOVIE YOU DO, JERKY!!!

[spacekicker]

Juliette Lewis...beyond that everyone has probably annoyed me at times, but everyone that everyone has mentioned I've seen in great movies, or acted well from time to time. I think it depends on the director/script - movie.

except for Lindsey Lohan...or Paris Hilton, I've never seen anything I've liked with them.

[kah]

Lohan was really good in Mean Girls, but that's the end. She's a spoiled, ugly brat, and I would be happy if she kept her skank ass away from decent movies.

[Jakester]

The only movie I'd like to see Lohan in is a porno movie, and that's mostly for the freak factor.

[spacekicker]

you are right mean girls was good!

[McJester]

Thank you for mentioning Lohan... cause it reminded me of someone I truly detest almost as much as Sean WIlliam Scott,
Hilary Duff!!!!
Come to think of it I think she was mentioned.... why did I forget? Oh well, I cant EFFING Stand her! Especially her musaac!

[Woodwraith]

Those actors and actresses that mere mention of makes me cringe?

Ben Stiller
Ben Affleck
Will Farrel
Mark Wahlberg
Sarah Michelle Geller

and Quenten Tarentino when he attempts to act.

[McJester]

You know... I dont like Mark Whalberg all that much either... I mean hes good, but obviously wants every one to know he really is tough!

[colmatrix]

I don't care for Ashley Judd. I can't put my finger on why, I do think she's hot and all. There's just something about her I don't like.

[sickness]

Personally, I dislike the fact that she hasn't yet run away from a script that features her as a beautiful, professional woman who finds herself in peril starring opposite Morgan Freeman. For the love of God!

[McJester]

Funny Sickness! But wasnt she like all deranged and psychotic in the Ya Ya Sisterhood? I wouldnt say I like her all that much, but I cant say I really dislike her either. NOw I'm picking up on an actress that really does annoy me, but I cannot think of who it is.... tick tock.

[sickness]

I'm not saying she hasn't played other roles, just that when she sees that type opposite Morgan Freeman, it's almost like heroin to her. She gots ta have her smack!!!

[Greyman]

Ben Stiller?

Will Ferrell?

Someone have a problem with comedians?

[Anna]

Mmmm, Alan Rickman. I'd pay to hear him read the phone book.
OMG, Neg! Snap! He is a genius...

~A

[sickness]

Alan Rickman is the English Christopher Walken. And I mean that in the most positive way.

[AdrianGilbert]

:popcorn: Right: you want a list of detestable actors? Well here's mine.

1) Head and shoulders above all the rest is Sean Connery. He may have been good as James Bond back in the sixties but since then his head has grown so large it no longer fits in the Albert Hall. Also he's a Scots Nationalist who loves his homeland so much he doesn't live there. That's like a Texan living in France demanding that the Lonestar State should leave the Union. What a hypocrite.

2) Tom Cruise. What more can be said of this pathetic creep that hasn't been already? Well in addition to being a major fund-raiser and support for the abominable pseudo-religion of scientology, he is also an appalling actor. He almost made it to the top of my list.

3) Nicole Kidman, the afformentioned's ex-wife. No blame on her for getting away from Cruise but unfortunately she makes me almost sympathise with him. She seems just such a cold creature and so devoid of genuine emotion that I'm sure it would be more fun living with a sex-toy mannekin than with her. (That said, I wish herand her new husband well and hope they have a happy life together with many children:) )

4) Almost any rock-star turned actor. I hate them all: from Mick Jagger to David Bowie to Roger Daltry. None of them can act and they all think we want to see them on film. They too should all be culled.

5) Will Smith. His Eddy Murphy impersonation pisses me off and I was already fed up with Eddie Murphy himself.

6) Jack Nicholson. He should really be at the top of my list too. I loathe him, loathe him, loathe him! He reminds me of the sort of dirty old man who would be slipping his hand up your girl-friends skirt when you weren't looking and then pretending afterwards it was all a joke. God, I hope he will retire soon and stop making movies.

7) Yes, Sir Ben Kingsley. Does he think he actually is Gandhi? He tried to pick up one of my sisters once. Thank God she had the good sense not to be pulled. The thought that there is any chance he could have ended up as my brother-in-law makes me want to vomit.

8) Lord Richard Attenborough. The idea that any thespian should be made a Lord fills me with loathing for the entire British political system. Lord Olivier? Well maybe his title was justified for his stirling work in keeping up morale during the war. But what has Attenborough ever done to merit his title? It beats me.

9) Madonna. Yes I know she comes under the heading of actors who are pop-stars but she is in a special category of her own. I deplore her vulgarity and her lack of respect for Christian symbols such as the crucifix. I also condemn her for being a lousy role-model for young women. Kabalah or no Kabalah she will probably burn in hell. Oh, and she is also a rotten actress too.

10) Elizabeth Taylor. Need I say more?

On the plus side I love:

1) Julia Roberts. Her smile is one of the greatest treasures in the world today.
2) Meryl Streep. For all I know she may be horrible in real life but she is a peerless actress.
3) Clint Eastwood. For me he is a cowboy's cowboy. The Good the Bad and the Ugly is still one of my all time favourite movies. A legend.
4) Juliette Binoche. If I ever have to be nursed through a terminal illness I would choose it to be her who was looking after me (English Patient). If she ran the chocolate shop I would become addicted to chocolate just to be with her. Brilliant actress.
5) Ralph Fiennes. Cold and somewhat menacing and in the English patient he really annoyed me. However, he too is a brilliant actor. A real star.
6) Zhang Ziyi. What an amazing actress. She has taken the genre of female martial arts to new heights of emotion. I look forward to seeing her in other movies that give her a chance to explore other genres.
7) Mel Gibson. Some actors have screen presence and others don't. He does. He is also a brilliant director. No wonder he is the richest actor today.
8) Russell Crowe. He may be a hell-raiser and not everyone's cup of tea, but he too is brilliant as an actor. In Gladiator he was awe inspiring. That makes for good box-office.
9) Caroline Langrishe. You maybe don't know her in America but in Britain she is a star of the small screen. I love her and have done so since she appeared first in 'The Flipside of Dominic Hide' (1980).
10) Rachel Weisz. Another brilliant British actress. I fell under her spell in 'The Mummy' and have not yet come out of it.

There are more I could add but this is enough of a list to be going on with.
