Fred Rogers.
I recently learned that they made an official youtube channel where they plan to keep a rotating 10 full episodes of Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood up at all times.

Right now it still has the very first episode up. Interesting to see how little the ‘formula’ has changed over the years.
Untrue. Mister Rogers, Daniel Tiger, Henrietta Pussycat, X the Owl, King Friday XIII, and Lady Elaine Fairchild were all pretty distinct characters from one another.
Agreed! He should have kept to the genre he was most famous for: action movies from Cannon films
Danny Trejo
Isn’t that intentional though?
He specifically requests to be a bad guy and to lose in the end because of his experience with crime and prison in his youth and wanting to be an example of crime not winning.
Rob Zombie’s Halloween. Instead of grizzled badass he’s the kindly janitor that still gets brutally murdered by Michael. He’s still playing a version of Danny Trejo, the director just reframed how the audience viewed him.
Spy Kids
Michael Cera
Richard Ayoade, his entire role in IT crowd was just him being him in whatever scenario he’s in.
Not true, he didn’t use his real voice in that role
His real voice is actually a deep, Barry White-like baritone
Its boring too
The Rock
hes too lazy to act in anything else. he just wants to be a movie star. bautista and cena is trying to become an actor. apparently behind the scences thats his contracts and it rubbed people the wrong way.
I honestly really enjoy cena in the stuff he’s in
Peacemaker had no right to be as good as it was.
“I dislike that you enjoy someone else’s work” - Somebody else on Lemmy
yeah what I have seen has been fun.
Cena’s been surprisingly skilled. From psych to peacemaker he’s been bringing it.
one of his first roles was in psych, he played the part. but he probably got better since then.
He was great in Pluribus
… who’s contract? You just mentioned 3 people.
Less than a year ago, he starred in a Safdie-directed, A24-produced biopic which earned him a couple of acting award noms, including a Golden Globe. Granted, it was the biggest flop of his career (so far), but from what I understand his acting chops were not the movie’s problem.
Counterexample:
Pain & GainI have a love hate relationship with that movie for an interesting reason (IMO). There is not a sympathetic or likeable character in the whole thing.
The only person who isnt actively dislikeable is Ed Harris and he barely qualifies as a character.
I feel like he was himself but dumber in that movie lol
Yeah, but he took steroids in that movie, and The Rock says he is natty 🤡
ISAIP cast, besides danny devito. they can never get out of being that isaip characther, hence thier ability to branch out of that show is nill, yes they did have other shows but they do anything remarkable different from what they did with isaip. mac saying glenn is from juilhart doesnt make him a good actor.
gal gadot, terrible acttress, i suspect shes only where she is at because they need to have IDF/zionist cheerleader in hollywood.
Nah. Charlie Day can bring it
Its Sunny always in Philadelphia
I can’t believe no one has said Michael Caine yet.
I get what you’re saying, there’s an enigmatic quality about his characters, but watch some of his older movies then watch him as Austin Power’s father - he can play different, he’s just played a similar character a lot.
Nobody has said it yet because that’s absolute nonsense.
Cider house rules, kingsmen, dirty rotten scoundrels. That is your homework.
If you think he is the same man in all three…
Please watch Children of Men. There are many reasons to watch (it’s one of my fav movies), but Caine’s portrayal of Jasper is memorable, and completely different to anything else I’ve seen him do.
Nicholas cage
I was about to say that ironically.
Truth is you couldn’t be further from it. But it’s a little magical to pretend and hope that, yes, Nick Cage is irl all of that.
Idk. Watch The Weather Man and Spider-Noir, wildly different performances. I’m no stan but Nic has range.
Edit: Although I do agree he hasn’t historically used it. I think related to money trouble and having to do a lot of ridiculous mostly trash movies.
Raising Arizona is another good example.
Leaving Las Vegas and Adaptation. He’s just absolute shit as a “cool guy”. He’s great at being a dork playing a cool guy.
> Son, you got a panty on your head.Moonstruck worked, strangely. It’s a movie that’s more like a theatre production.
You NEED to watch “Pig”
It’s great, but it’s also the least Nic Cage role being played perfectly by Nic Cage.
absolutely not. this guy has range as hell
Seth Rogan. Worst Donkey Kong possible.
hyukhyuhkyuhk
Keanu Reeves
David Duchovny.
John Wayne.
Keanu Reeves.
disagree about keanu reeves. have you seen a scanner darkly?
I was all the great robot actors. Actingbot 0.8! Thesb-O-mat! David Duchovny!
Jason Statham, Gwneth Paltrow, Jennifer Aniston.
Ryan Reynolds.
Jack Black.
I didn’t know, he did areally good job as playing a teenage girl in Jumanji.
And as a nervous high school student in Northern Exposure. Or in high fidelity.
I think his problem is that overwhelmingly people cast him because they want the bombastic hairball. It’s not lack of skill, it’s typecasting
Jack Black is a teenage girl IRL
No, he was a different guy in “the big year” and also different in that movie where he’s a funeral home director or something? He was southern? Based on a true story I think?
Also a gunsmith in the jackal.
Owen “Wow” Wilson
First one who came to my mind. Not sure Luke Wilson is very much better.
