 I don't think he's a particularly good actor either. Look at Thora Birch, she started acting in films when she was like 6-7 and has continued to appear in a variety of films. I can only think of 3 that Osment has been in and he acted the same in two of them and almost the same in the third.

Sandra Bullock,   can someone tell my why this woman continues to get work?  She has a repetoire of one facial expression that lies somewhere between braindead and constipated.

Julia Roberts annoys me for pretty much the same reason.

Halle Berry, yeah she's alright to look at, but couldn't act her way out of a wet paper bag.  I also cannot get that horrid  line from the X-men out of my head, the 'what happens to a toad when it gets struck by lightning' line.  My dead grandmother could have delivered that better.  ( in her defense, the line was remarkably weak to begin with)

Steven Segal is a no talent, one trick, arrogant asshat.   Jean Claude Vandamme suffers from the same disease.

Adam Sandler,  maybe i'm just too old to understand his humor, but i find him as amusing as a handful of duck excrement.   Put him on the same barge as Carrot Top and sink em in the atlantic.

Leonardo Di-crap-io  and Kate Winslet.    Lame  Lame Lame...

Madonna -  She can sing,  and she's a shrewd business woman..  She can't act to save her life.

J-Lo   -  she's not particularly pretty, has no acting abilitiy.. she does however have a fairly nice keister.

Salma Hayek    -  The definition of Vapid.   I've seen rocks with higher IQ's

Freddy Prinze Jr.     Where the hell did this asshat come from anyway? And Why is he in EVERYTHING.??   I prayed that Wing Commander would end his career...but he's like a cockroach, he keeps coming back!

Oh yes, I forgot thosw teen losers, only two I think have even a little amount of acting talent (Reese Witherspoon and Sarah Michelle Gellar).

Freddie Prinze Jr., Matthew Lillard and the worst one of all, Jennifer Love Hewitt, and now she is trying to sing!!! For some reason they got rid of the fun actors in I know What You Did Last Summer, and kept the two horrible actors (Freddie Prinze and Love Hewitt). Then they wonder why the second was so bad.

Oh and that Tim Robbins guy, he is such an ass in real life and only has had one good role (Shawshank Redemption). Whats so great about him.

Julia Roberst is the most f*cking annoying person ever to walk the earth. Her face makes me wanna puke and don't get me started on her "acting".

Madonna.  I agree 100%.  Not one movie she was starring in (Evita doesn't count, she sang through the entire movie) was ever good.  Even supporting roles (Dick Tracy, Desperatly Seeking Susan) she sucked.

Hallie Berry.  I don't know.  Of all the actors listed on this thread, I belive Berry is the only one who won both an Oscar and an Emmy (uh, The Diary of Dorathy Danridge, or something like that)

One more thing...

J-sLOw-minded.  This woman can't sing, can't act, but can shake that fat ass with the best of them.  And now this woman is going to marry for the second time to fellow bad actor Ben Affleck.  Jennifer No-tal--(oops) Lopez is no actess not even a star.  All she is is an attention getter

Man, you guys just don't bad actors and actresses. Most of the names mentioned here are just 'popular' actors in big budget movies where it's fun and easy to slam on them.  Most of them actually aren't that bad.  And some are pretty darned close to Peter O'Toole compared to who I usually think of as bad actors.

Angelika Jager - Valerie in "Robot Holocaust"
Persis Khambatta - Cobalt in "Phoenix The Warrior" (and honorable mention to her role in "Megaforce")

More mumbling heroes in more post-apoc cyborg time-travelling movies then I dare to admit I've seen...

But, then, to me that is the spirit of "Bad Movies".  It's not about watching "Titanic" or "Scooby Doo" and ripping it.  That's too easy.  It's about watching "Trancers 4" and *enjoying* the experience...and looking for "Trancers 5" for next weekend. Ripping Denise Richards in "Starship Troopers" is easy, ripping Denise Richards in "Tammy And The T-Rex"...now that's fun.

Tatum ONeal was good in Paper Moon and Bad News Bears, but has since dropped off the radar screen.

Jodie Foster has had a long career, and is only forty.

Any others?

>Steven Segal is a no talent, one trick, arrogant asshat. Jean Claude Vandamme
>suffers from the same disease

At least VanDamme seems like he might be a nice guy in person, while Segal's attitude just screams "I'm an a***ole". I know one person who claims to have met him and he says that's a pretty accurate description. Also, I might have mentioned this before, but a friend's son is into karate and when his school decided to put on some charity event, they wanted a celebrity to help pull people in. They contacted Segal, but he would only do it if it was an all expenses paid trip, luxory hotel suite etc. They contacted Chuck Norris instead and he did it for free.

>J-Lo - she's not particularly pretty,

It depends how she's made up. I see her in magazines, most movies and I think "Why did I ever think she was attractive?", but then I'll look at her Maxim pics, or she'll be in a movie where she isn't wearing $500 worth of cosmetics and a cheap pornstar hairstyle and I remember why I occasionally like her.

>career...but he's like a cockroach, he keeps coming back!

This I completely agreed with. I actually heard one news show call this doofus the most handsome teen actor today. Personally, I think he would have been better suited to playing Scooby than Fred...

>Hallie Berry. I don't know.

I've heard that she's going to be the first Bond girl to get her own spin-off movie!

I never watched Paper Moon and don't remember much about The Bad News bears. For me, Little Darlings will always be the movie I most associate with her.

I have a friend who is in a movie that Segal filmed recently in Poland.  He says that the guy is always talking in hushed tones (to anyone who'll listen, ironically, so why the hushed tone?) about his days in the CIA.  He'd give my friend and other actors tips about how a real CIA agent would ambush someone or break into a room.  Steve, a hint: if you'd been a real life CIA agent, you wouldn't be blabbing it to everyone... especially while in a foreign country, moron.  He pulled the same thing while a guest on Letterman - he insinuated something about being in the CIA and then refused to talk about it and got all serious asking Dave to change the subject.  HE brought it up!!  Delusional or trying to build a mystique?  You be the judge.

Jennifer Lopez is a babe as far as I am concerned.  Fat ass??  No no no.  You mean "PHAT" ass.  : )

Anyone can say what they want about Halle Berry and the crappy roles in crappy movies she has made, but I thought "Monster's Ball" was a moving film and I thought she was great in it.  I don't tear up much when watching movies, but the scenes where she got mad at her kid for being fat choked me up.  A more deserved Oscar than most.

The thing that seemed strange about Monsters Ball was that the characters didn't seem to grow after all that. They were horrible people at the beginning and horrible people at the end.

Can't say I have any opinion on Berry's acting - never paid much attention. She is good looking though.

As for "J-Lo," I would have to say that the thing that bothers me most about her is that stupid moniker. That's all she seems to be called anymore, and it's annoying as hell.

Why is the media making such a big deal about this marriage anyway. It's not like it's gonna last 3 years (to say 2 would be wishful thinking).

Could this because she is really mean and has a drug addiction???

I dont think the oscars are that good of a job. Honestly, the past two or three best movies have not even been nominated (see: Memento, Matrix)
Also, I think there are a lot of politics involved in the academy (why else would two Crowe pics win best movie/best actor)

Agreed on "J-Lo."  I can't stand it.  Maybe they'll call her husband-to-be "B-Af" and then we can all add the "R."

I think the main point of "Monster's Ball" is that horrible people are still people, and even the worst are capable of love and kindness.  Were they still horrible at the end?  Well, yeah, you're right, they were.  But that's realistic.  Nobody transforms completely in the space of months... but they were at least on their way.  That's how I saw it at least.
