Mr. DS

I'll go first, I like Ben Stiller.  He is a bit of a one trick pony acting wise (the nerdy wise guy) but I've pretty much liked him in every role I've seen him in. 

Your turn.

Will Smith.  He seems to annoy most people, but I just find him amusing.

LET THE FLAMING COMMENCE!

Seriously, I can't stand him, but my wife seems to think he's okay. I don't think it's an attraction thing, but I could be wrong.

I like Adam Sandler as an actor. Yep, I said it. I'm not saying that he doesn't do terrible movies. The majority of his movies are s**t. However, he has turned in some performances that I am impressed with.

You see, I kind of like Nick Cage too, but I see him get flamed on this site all the time as having no talent. I don't agree that when he's awful he's great, however, but oh well. For me when he misses, he is utterly unwatchable.

I third Nick Cage.

John C. Reilly.

I've liked the guy in pretty much every film I've seen him in yet I get a lot of people saying how terrible he is. :question:

I'm with the Rev on this one.
Me-I like Jim Carrey. He was great in ACE VENTURA,DUMB and DUMBER (though Jeff Daneils was better),and the CABLE GUY.
You can keep junk like ME,MYSELF AND IRENE,LIMINY SNICKET,and the GRINCH.

I've always found him entertaining too.  I love both Ace Ventura movies.  I have no idea why people pan the second one. 

This next one will get me shot at undoubtedly...I somewhat like Pauly Shore.   :bluesad:

Oh and another one I'm ashamed of...I think Andy Dick is kinda funny.

I think Keanu Reeves is pretty good. It's sad that his finest role occurred so early in his career (Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure), but I've liked him in other roles as well. I don't quite get all the flak he gets about being wooden when other actors (*cough*Ben Affleck*cough*) are much worse than he is.
