Underrated Actors

[bocomo007]

lol @ getting negged on an actor thread where one states opinions...

WTF?!?!?!?!?

Boco, you got some splainin to do...

i was just thinking of the thumbs up/down as voting up or down the comment -- not really like the old rep/neg system

 

[bocomo007]

A couple more:

Can Sean Bean still be considered underrated after GOT? I loved Ronin
Jean Reno (Leon is an all time great)
Powers Booth
Michael Rooker is pretty awesome and those of you who know him and his roles have to agree!

good choices there

 

[beardown07]

It's coo boco...just thought I'd check

 

[beardown07]

haha

just for the weed stigma affecting his acting in any way

Oh, I don't think it affects his acting in a bad way...if anything it probably enhances it. I dig Woody, but I think there are many that ignore his talents cuz they're anti-weed en sech.

well shit, maybe i misread what you meant

i thought you were ranking him lower cause he smoked it up

 

[beardown07]

oh no...not at all...just thinking, maybe some do.


Woody's the man IMO

Giovanni Ribisi

Definitely agree. He's quite the versatile guy, too. He's played an assortment of characters, all of them excellent. He was awesome in Boiler Room.

I always thought he should've been cast as Bane in tDKR. Considering the original Bane was like 10' tall, he's probably the closest to being a really tall, jacked guy that can still act. I think he's got like 9-10" on Hardy.

Gerald's brother Gerard is good as well.

doing that with Mad Men right now.

I just finished season 5 of this on netflix last night. Love the series.

I pretty much refuse to watch these things on "live" TV anymore. It's so much better when you can watch them in order in a short amount of time. 1 or 2 episodes a night each night for a few weeks.

Only thing that sucks is Season 6 just finished last night on "live" tv, so it's going to be a bit of a wait until I get to see it.

True Romance for sure. Anyone that says otherwise is a ludicrous waif.

True Romance is an awesome movie.

Yea, I'm on season 3 right now. I watched a lot of it this weekend and i'm starting to get burned out on them. If I find a site for season 6 before it comes to Netflix i'll send you a pm if you like.

One guy who hasn't been mentioned (probably because he picks shitty movies) but tends to improve every movie he is in:

He is a very good actor, one of my favorites. He plays so many different kinds of characters and nails them every time. If you were to ask me who is a real actor, not just a celeb, this is the guy.

Thanks, but I think I'll probably end up watching them "on demand". Right now they only have the first 4 episodes of season 6 up.

I want to wait for them all on netflix commercial free, but my wife gets all upset about waiting. Gotta know everything as soon as possible.

Bad enough she couldn't talk about it the day after eh.

 

[bigred472]

Naw, naw, you got it all wrong.
You're talking to my friend all wrong.

I'll admit Walken has done his share of "throwaways" and yet he can also do comedy quite well too.

 

[NickVT10]

Paul Rudd---I think he is rated where he should be. He is the same guy in every movie.
Christopher Mintz-Plasse --I'd have to say he is average
Jeff Daniels
Bryan Cranston

Tom Hardy I agree with being under rated. He was great in Lawless.

I'm just happy it's a show I can actually watch with her.

Most of the crap she watches...

goddamnit rockess


HF is a cult classic...one of Cusack's defining roles..God I'm drunk, don't make me bring out the Meg gifs

I'm not saying it's not a good movie (it is) or that he's a bad actor (he's not). I just HATE that character and I can't watch the movie because I literally start throwing things and have to leave the room to cool off.
