    Meg Ryan - I used to like her, but I'm sick to death of her "gee whiz I'm so sweet and innocent" routine.

    Tom Cruise - I have no idea why people like him. His "acting" always seems so forced and insincere.

    I know I'm going to get fragged for this, but - Jack Nicholson. I've never understood what people see in him.

    Orlando Bloom

    And most, if not all actors/actresses that were once singers/pop stars (and yes, that most definatly includes Snoop Dog)

    EDIT: Oh, and Elijah Wood pisses me off

    Robin Williams - why does he tell that same lesbian and hotjoke in every movie that he has been in. Always plays the same part no matter what movie he appears in.

    Robert Downey Jr - He is so annoying and ruins every movie he has been in. Always plays the same part.

    Kiefer Sutherland - Always plays the part of a European. Once again always plays the same part.

    Brad Pitt - worst Irish accent ever and too much of a pretty boy to take seriously.

    Arnie, Bruce Willis, Sly - why do people take these 'actor's seriously.

    Jim Carrey - He only did one good movie - (eternal sunshine) because he was not playing the part of Jim Carrey!

    and the entire cast of the 'American Pie' franchise.

    If you hate those actors, fine. But to say they play the same part is a little wrong.

    Robin Williams: 1 hour photo, What dreams may come, the Birdcage. 3 totally unrelated parts.

    Kiefer Sutherland: The lost Boys, A time to kill. Both Americans, and both totally different

    Robert Downy Jr: Bowfinger, Air America, Natural born killers. All totally different parts.

    If you dont like an actor, that's fine. It's all personal choice afterall. Just going to point out when a reason might be wrong. ;)

    I hate Robin Williams as well, but What Dreams May Come is the best movie ever made.

    Hey! Leave Jack Nicholson and Tom Cruise alone!

    Sorry, the lawyer in me just couldn't resist.

    :p ;)

    Anyway, now that I thought about it, add Steven Seagal to my list. Always exudes smugness in every role that he players. Yuck ...

    I'm inclined to add Jessica Simpson as well on account of what will surely be a hellaciously atrocious performance as Daisy in the remake of 'Dukes of Hazard'. Not that I'm actually going to see it mind you. I suppose in all fairness Ms. Simpson shouldn't be included until that travesty actually gets released. :rolleyes:

    I was just pointing out in general why I don't like the actors in questions. When I say they 'play the same part' I mean they always have the same personality and 'do not get in character'. Just my opinion - no-one has to agree with me.

    A fair point. It's why I hate John Wayne. He always plays John Wayne in a movie, and since I dont like him to start...

    Same with Sean Connery. He always plays Sean Connery. We had a scottish Russian Sub captain, we had a Scottish Irish cop, we had a Scottish king Arthur.... the list goes on and on. The only good thing is that I like Sean. I'd still say that I didnt realise it was Robert Downy Jr in Natural born killers till the end credits.

    I hate to admit but Robert Downy Jr was great in 'NBK'.

    Don't forget the ancient Sean Connery movie where he was an Italian taxi driver - he still had his Edinburgh accent!

    William Shatner. Too over-the-top in everything he does. However, he was great as himself (the Great Big Head in Third Rock from the Sun).

    Hey, I know I'm not a moderator, but this thread is about telling which actors you dislike, not yelling at people for disliking someone you like.

    Keanu Reeves - he had some good movies like Speed and The Replacements (funny too), but his acting just really isn't good at all. In fact I'm was so convinced that the reason Neo was blinded in Matrix:Revolution was because KR didn't have the ability to emote in Trinity's dead scene. :grin:

    Michelle Rodriguez - I find her sexy, and a pretty decent actress. I like her, it's just that she seems to be type cast as a thick-headed butt-kicking pouting girl... Girl Fight, Blue Crush, Resident Evil, Fast and Furious, SWAT. Can't she get a role of a sweet innocent little dainty chic?
