Same thing with Richard Gere

Each seem to only be able to play one role.
they just do it in different movies

I cant think of a single movie either of them has ever been in where they havent been out acted by the supporting cast


yea i don't like either of them. I don't like craig much either. Best action movies were with stallone and arnold. Both terrible actors and they new they were. Nothing like these guys now who think they are doing something great but just suck.

I miss the glory days of action movies.... :cry

Dred..I have one guy in mind that is ALWAYS the same character.

  Jeff Goldblum playing Jeff Goldblum. He could be cast as Moses, Hitler, or Jeff Gordon...and he would just be Jeff Goldlum in costume.

They're trying to make Bond more PC, and trying to make up for it by going overboard on special effects. "How can we make Bond kinder and gentler, and more in touch with his feminine side? We can make up for the loss of non PC masculinity by using the most outlanish and absurd special effects and stunt gags you could possibly think of!" How is that working? It sucks, that's how it's working.

The new guy claimed during shooting that he doesn't like much of what Bond is about, especially guns. But he's making up for it by getting a full frontal nudity scene worked in for him. Isn't that just special.:huh
You have'nt read about the new film, have you? It is not loaded with CGI. Bond is not a cartoon character. This is Bond earning his "00" and getting bloody in the process. They are returning to the roots of the Ian Fleming character.

Think of it as Bourne, Jason Bourne.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

I have a guess that only young people find it funny. I have yet to see anyone over 30 think that it’s funny….

LOL Yup. thats another one for sure.

He was however cast perfectly as Ian Malcolm in Jurrassic Park

I found him just as annoying in the movie as I did in the book,as I do in real life LOL

I'm 52 and do not find it funny at all.

But I do like Adam Sandler's later stuff.  I think he peaked in "Anger Management" though.  His early stuff is incredibly irritating.

On British humor, I really like Monty Python and who could not find Benny Hill hilarious.

See I dont like Sandler. Though I would agree he peaked in Anger management.
But I only think he did was because of Nicholson

I fnd Sandlers style more irritating then funny

Same thing with Jim Carrey

Though I'd have to rate Carrey slightly higher then Sandler
As he had at least a couple movies he was actually good in

"Bruce Almighty"
"Dumb and Dumber"
And he was the perfect choice to play  the Riddler in "Batman Forever"

Liar Liar was my favorite Jim Carrey...although Bruce Almighty is a close second.  Carrey is better when he colors more between the lines.  I saw Borat this weekend and thought it was hilarious.  Especially when Bob Barr eats the traditional Kazak cheese.
