You did not just insult Toni Collette. Take it back. Now.
John Travoltaâs head got a little too big when he thought he didnât need Tarentino or the Gibbs and tried putting L. Ron Hubbard books on the big screen. The man is truly brainwashed for thinking those steaming piles of science fiction poo could turn a buck.
Billy Crystal and Steve Guttenburg are two men who should have never been allowed out of the 80âs (or into it).
Gary Busey gives me the creeps.
I am a little more sympathetic toward women although Jennifer Lopez acts with about as much realism as $30 velvet Van Gogh painting from the back of an unmarked van.
Nope. I meant actress. I think language should be concise, hence I differentiate between masseur and masseuse, waitress and waiter. Waitperson is not as descriptive.
This is just my personal preference. It isnât gospel.

And ask an actor of the feminine persuasion what her preference might beâŚ
BTW, why donât you say Doctress then?
I know this may be akin to the Japanese Bombing of Pearl Harbour or 9/11 in that I am waking a sleeping (well, hardly sleeping, as you are quite vigilant with that red pen of yours) giant and you may turn your magnifying glass that came with your OED on me and my humble postsâŚbut it will keep me on my toesâŚ
Sure, Tom Hanks and Tom Cruise are no-brainers, but why am I the first one to mention John Travolta?
Ok, he was alright in Pulp Fiction, but other than that? Battlefield Earth anyone (I was dying)? And donât even get me started on his connections to those Scientology bastards.
Mel Gibson is terrible too. The Patriot was the one and only movie Iâve ever left after 5 minutes. It was the second movie of a double-feature fortunately.
Julia Roberts is in the same league as Gibson. She can only play one role and that is herself; worst of all she is so damn successful at that. AAARRGH!
Repeat offender of bad tasteâŚIâd sentence him to life on Hollywood Squares, at the bottom center where heâd be the pretty useless square. Maybe all the guys from âWelcome Back, Kotterâ could help him find a job now that his on-screen career is washed up.
How about Kirsten Dunst? Jennifer Love Hewitt? For Actors, what about that grown up frat guy dork from âStand by Meâ. He was in Scream 2 and a bunch of crappy movies (not that Scream 2 wasnât crappy). I canât believe no one has named the king of shmuck actors, Ben Affleck.
Tom Hanks and Tom Cruise go without saying.
What about French Highlander dude (not including âSubwayâ)
I donât think there is a logical way to explain why you hate someone. I like to think of it as one of those little pleasures that make life worth living.

She use to be okay, like in the Murielâs Wedding days. Now she bothers me. Not her acting, per se. Just those faces she pulls MOST of the time. My friend says when they want someone to look overly distraught about something, they cast Toni Collette. Itâs true.
Also: The boy who plays Harry Potter, and Kevin Spacey.
Not crazy about Sarah Jessica Parker either, but adore her cast mates on âSex/Cityâ.
Hugh Grant (huge grunt) takes the prize for the most hated. he is just a babbling fool that plays the same character over and overâŚ
Relatedly, I always bypass movies with Tom Hanks (Tom Wanks) in them. Steven Segal and Jean Claude Van Demme are also very low on my list - their movies are just w$nkfeasts.
As for girls (not counting Hugh GRant), that stupid woman who plays The Nanny (canât think of her name and donât care), but if she is in anything then it wonât be watched by me.
Ever notice how Segal sounds like Fecal.
I like the Matrix, but Keanu âParty Onâ Reeves really ruins the whole thing.
Will Smith⌠Stick to our rappin you old Rotten Prince.
How much time do you people devote to watching shite films? I can understand Nicholas Cage getting on your nads since he did a few good films. But Steven Segal? Julia Roberts? How can you hate them? What were you expecting when you got the video?
Not nearly enough mention of Keanu yet. I mean he simply canât act. At all.
You know sometimes I think some âbad actorsâ are pretty good if they stick to playing a certain type. Maybe theyâre not really âactingâ, but their presence is good (as long as they play that type. I mean Hugh Grant is great as the the self-absorbed cad (bJâs Diary, About a Boy), Tom Cruise cruised well in Vanilla Sky and Eyes Wide Shut. Hell even Keanu did a good job of âTedâ. Can Takeshi Kitano âactâ? I dunno, but heâs fantastic in his films.

i can only speak for myself when i say this, but when i was at the video store and saw the box for the movie with BOTH steven segal and julia roberts in it, i thought to myself, âthis looks interestingâŚi wonder if this will be a great hollywood movieâŚâ
and then a few hours later, i found myself unpacking the power drill, locking in the biggest bit I could find and applying it to my head.
Iâm pleased to see Brad Pitt stayed off everyoneâs most hatedâŚheâs soooo sexy, AND he can act. Although heâs made a couple of bad choices recently. StillâŚluv him.
Call me a sentimental old fool, but I never get tired of watching A River Runs Through It, though not because of Brad Pitt â the Tom Skerrit character reminds me of my dear old dad.
