I always thought Robert Quarry was over-rated. He did 2 Yorga movies- which were run of the mill at best, yet horror fans thought he was the second coming of Christopher Lee.
In an interview he had the balls to say that Lugosi was a terrible actor!
Supernatural?...perhaps. Baloney?...Perhaps not!" Bela Lugosi-the BLACK CAT (1934)
Interviewer-"Does Dracula ever end for you?
Lugosi-"No. Dracula-never ends."

If true, ROBERT QUARRY was an idiot... I like those YORGA movies, but they are silly.

Tom Cruise.
Fair at best.  

I think SPENCER TRACY is overrated.  "The leetle feeshes!  The leetle feeshes!"  :lookingup:  

SPENCER TRACY only gets great for me in the later films...

I would agree on Tom Cruise and Spencer Tracy.
Tracy was fine in BAD DAY AT BLACK ROCK, though. Great movie.

Shia LaBeouf. I never got the hype. Was he popular because of his average looks? His acting never impressed me.

That's a mystery for the ages and sages.

Svengoolie 3

Clint Eastwood.  His whole range was talking  without parting his teeth.
The doctor that circumcised Trump threw away the wrong piece.

Yeah...but he was so too cool for school, man. And charisma makes up for talent, sometimes.

Gabriel Knight

George Clooney. The man can't act, period. The worst image I have of him is from Batman & Robin -granted, a bad example of a movie, but he received a fat check from it anyways-, where he's saying "Alfred is dying" with a huge smile on his face. Simply awful.
Check my crappy and unpopular reviews and ratings:

I got to see the UK premier of that one.

Some nights I still wake up in a cold sweat thinking about it. *shudder*

Any actor that's been in a film which disses my country.

Well, the ladies like him, I reckon.
Why he was in a Batman movie, I dunno...mebbe he had just the right kinda nipples and butt-cheeks for a Batman movie...? :question:

No, he got the part because VAL KILMER had played Batman in the previous installment and did not get a long with the director of both movies, JOEL SCHUMACHER.  I'd guess they did not want to work together again. 

CLOONEY's acting is not good.  The movie is dumb.

Speaking of Kilmer-yeah- that guy. Can't stand him.

Yes, like I said, one of TRACY's later movies... of course BAD DAY AT BLACK ROCK also has ROBERT RYAN ERNEST BORGNINE  ANNE FRANCIS ... that's where TRACY (with few exceptions) starts to get good for me.
