    Adam Sandler. I dunno that everyone likes him, but he seems very popular and lots of people seem to love his movies, but I can’t fucking stand him. I don’t enjoy his style of comedy, I find him equal parts vapid and grating in everything I’ve ever seen him in, I just don’t see the appeal.

    Norman Reedus i guess? Im a big metal gear fan but I won’t play death stranding.

    Norman reedus is gross and looks like the smelly guy with cigarette burns on his fingers and bitten up fingernails. He repulses me, I have nothing but contempt for him. He’s so skeevy looking.

    Will Ferrell. He’s a creep. He’s not funny and is way too keen to play the love interest of actresses much younger than he is.

    Gal Godot.

    I’m very impressed with Lemmy here for not doing what Reddit would have and naming a long list of attractive women. That being said, if I didn’t feel a moral obligation to boycott Gal Godot, she is so talentless that she hasn’t made anyone else’s list because it’s such a low hanging fruit.

    Anthony Mackie. Nothing particularly offensive about him, but he’s a bit of a charisma vacuum and that constant pinch-faced expression irritates me for some reason.

    chris pratt and rob machlenny. stay in your lane rob, collaborating with ryan and manning is really strange for your characther, and it looks like desperation to stay with the hollywood circle of elites. your interviews you have given over the pandemic makes you extremely pretentious: acting like its secret on how to get steroids for you s13 role, and downplaying it. mooching off ryan reynolds popularity as a transaction, plastic surgery+botox is pretty much ruined your face a little, and kaitlyn olsen.

    also alec baldwin.

      He plays one character, but the character is kind of likable and funny. To me he’s the definition of a popcorn flick actor.

      WWE really pushed many stars to become hollywood actors. bautista is one that actually tries as an actor, dwayne is a movie star attention seeker, also dwayne apparently is the “ellen degeneres” of behind the scenes too.

      Always hated him. Its just the most banal frat boy attention-seeking attempts at humor, and nothing ever rises above the level of his shitty Thanksgiving turkey song.

      I don’t like his movies but I respect his hustle. He has enough money to approach an agent and tell them “I want to make this movie, I want to cast all my friends in it, and I want my character to walk away with a hot date at the end” and the agent just says okay.

      They’re pretty much all the same movie with different names on them. But it’s pretty clear that everyone involved in those movies was just having a great time making them.

      He’s the only actor I can think of I actively boycott other than Gal Godot. Aside from his violent racism and American nationalism which is all well documented, I just absolutely loathe the type of character he likes to play; the macho snarky asshole who feels like he got kicked out of basic training and makes being a veteran his whole personality.

      There’s few archetypes I hate more than the “former soldier who could kill a man, harbouring some deep unnerving instinct”, or the “American in a truck who loves the flag and is just a hard working guy”, and somehow he always plays and glamorises both, despite not actually being either.

    Leonardo DiCaprio. I get huge, cringy ‘imposter syndrome’ vibes from him, like he knows he shouldn’t be doing this for a living but soldiers on regardless. I’ve never bought into a single one of his performances. He always seems like he’s ‘acting’, and never really embodies the characters or reacts ‘in the moment’. It’s all a poor imitation of what he has seen other actors do.

    I hate that he became Scorsese’s new De Niro, and so when I hear of a new Scorsese film I get excited and then immediately lose interest knowing that DiCaprio is probably gonna be leading it. Literally every film he has done would have been better with a different actor.

    Also Nicolas Cage. I get the memey antifan sort of thing that bolsters his career, but let’s be honest, there’s no hint of talent in the man. He has ruined what might have been great films. Bringing Out the Dead could have been a legit classic if not for his involvement.

      I don’t generally have an issue with Leo but the imposter syndrome comment is on point. He does have a vibe and that description sums it up well.

      Exact opposite feelings here, and I generally have a hard time suspending disbelief. I remember seeing The Basketball Diaries (this was before Titanic) and being blown away by his acting. I’d say this is a rare example of an actor being held back by good looks. A lot of folks have just not wanted to admit that this particular heartthrob has genuine talent. To contrast with, for example, Keanu, or Clooney.

      The man does not have a single molecule of acting ability anywhere within his soul.

        Yeah I don’t feel her honestly even seeing herself as an actor per ce. Like she’s typecast because that’s who she is (or at least thats her public persona) and she just rolls with it cause it works in her favour and people love to see it.

      She’s very typecast, but she can act. If she actually got a role where she could show strong emotion, I think she could rise to it well. She’s good in Challengers and great in Euphoria.

    Jack Black. I think it was around the time he started up his Jablinksy crap on Youtube. There were tons of “organic posts” on reddit about it and it just didn’t sit right with me. Ever since I can’t stand him.

      I also could never stand him. I think I just saw him in to many things basically being Jack Black or something.

      There is actually one movie called The Holiday, it’s a RomCom from 2006 which I like very much, and I think he does a good job there.
