I suppose I could riff a list of things that I care as little about as our last week together. Lemme see, uhh.... Low-carb diets. Michael Moore. The Republican National Convention. Kabbalah and all Kabbalah-related products. Hi-def TV, the Bush daughters, wireless hot spots, 'The O.C.', the U.N., recycling, getting Punk'd, Danny Gans, the Latin Grammys, the real Grammys. Jeff, that Wiggle who sleeps too darn much! The Yankees payroll, all the red states, all the blue states, every hybrid car, every talk show host! Everything on the planet, everything in the solar system, everything everything everything everything everything everything, everything that exists, past, present and future, in all discovered and undiscovered dimensions....Oh! And Hugh Jackman.

He was good in Children of Men.

It's John Travalta that annoys me...

Steven Seagal makes me irritated.

Yep.

He has nothing on Bruce Willis, especially in the recently premiered Die Hard, which happens to be amazing.

I don't think Mery Streep is that bad, honestly.

Though she's best in roles where she's required to play a more caricaturical character and the script doesn't require her to get all weepy and emotional.

Steven Seagal isn't an actor, AFAIC.

I actually like Leo nowadays. He did a great job in What's Eating Gilber Grape as well.

I can't stand Seagal, he can't ever be in movies again. In fact his character should be digitally recast in all movies he has appeared in except for, "Executive Decision."

I can't stand any actor who isn't Kevin Spacey, Gary Oldman, or Edward Norton. And the only two actresses I can stand watching are Laura Linney and Jennifer Connely.

I pretty much can't stand the rest of em.

Heehee...ditto.

I'm actually a little surprised by the number of people who don't like Robin Williams. I think he's absolutely hilarious (though I don't understand the movies he's been making lately...). I still find his stand-up and interviews to be roll-on-the-floor funny.

I HATE Russell Crowe and can't stand Nicolas Cage. Cage's voice is...intolerable.

Tom Cruise, Mel Gibson and John Travolta. Not because they haven't made good movies (they've made a couple.... maybe) but because of their recent antics I just can't look at them and suspend any disbelief at all.

I can't believe my #1 annoying actor has only been mentioned once.

OWEN WILSON!! Eww...

It was ok when I couldn't see his face (Cars), but that's it.

Most of the others on my list have been mentioned as well:
Nicholas Cage (except when he's being funny, I hate it when he's taking himself too seriously)
Will Ferrell (except Stranger than Fiction)
Jim Carrey (except The Majestic and Truman Show...haven't seen Eternal Sunshine)
Colin Farrell (pretty much always)
Ben Stiller (but I liked Night at the Museum)

Ones that fall somewhere in the middle:
Jack Black (I loved School of Rock and his character in The Holiday)
Adam Sandler

What's funny is that I can't think of any actresses that bother me right now...I'm sure there are tons.

I might come back later with some actresses.

Ooh! I thought of a few actresses!

Hillary Duff!
Jessica Biel!
Katie Holmes
Uma Thurman (She kinda freaks me out, but I've enjoyed some of her movies)

I'm sure there are more.

Oh, and I have the same feelings toward Cary Grant as I do for Nicholas Cage. He's only good when he's being funny! (I know that practically everyone disagrees with me on this one. [Wink] )

Gilbert Godfrey (is anyone going to argue with me on this one?)

While generally dispising him I liked Leo DiCaprio in The Departed, although Jack Nicholson's schtick is getting old.

I liked Nicholas Cage in The Rock, and Gone in 60 Seconds, but most of the other stuff he's done has been kinda, meh.

Jack Black is either at one extreme or the other. When he's in a movie with John Cusack his dark comedy is as good as anyone's. But what was he thinking with Nacho Libre????

Drew Barrymore annoys me more often than not, but she's in a few good movies like Eternal Sunshine much like Jim Carrey

Oh.. Parker Posey. I have a friend that loves her, but most of the time I think she's creepy.

"Gilbert Godfrey (is anyone going to argue with me on this one?)"

OH, I'll argue. Not. Godfrey, in a word, sucks. How did the guy ever get a job? I hate that voice he puts on.
