#3 worst actor nomination thread

i don't know, Washington was so pretty back then; when Thompson's Beatrice says to his offer of marriage, "No, my lord, unless I might have another for working-days: your grace is too costly to wear every day" it really lands!

those bloom gifs are all so incredible

he is acting as if he has a face and is aware that it is covered with skin

agree!

This is still Kevin Spacey.

i saw him in Moon for the Misbegotten once. he was so woefully miscast

yet I'm told by several friends he was fantastic in The Iceman Cometh.

it's been a long time, so I forget whether we have considered Emilia Clarke yet?

definitely a rising contender

The Iceman Cometh is eighty-six hours long and you need some kind of lifebuoy for that

Spacey had plenty of lifeboys.

Sam Neill is very good in Hunt For The Wilderpeople, can only imagine the carnage if Bloom lives to be the appropriate age for that kind of role.

joanne woodward

What? No.

xp worst quitting ever

Btw speaking of the king of this thread:

Found this, suspect it was meant to be making the opposite point that it does.

BLOOM OUT

is anyone good at grabbing a gif if i offer mia farrow in death on the nile

I'll break with holiday spirit here and ask how has Ali MacGraw not appeared in this thread

actually

hugo weaving

add him straight into the spacey/malkovich "speak slowly, overuse your jaw" entry of "hang on you cant fuckin act lad"

incredible jaw though

the thing of dreams or nightmares, depending on your point of view

Come on, he made The Matrix.

by talking slowly and jawing like he was tripping

He was perfectly cast for that role. The problem is, that's about the extent of his range.

I’m sure I commented itt saying “fuck you he was great in Priscilla Queen of the Desert” but I’m not seeing it now so

you posted it in the wrong thread but it was noted

Ah, yeah, it was the LOTR thread

Ah no

Well I was right

tbf, I have never seen Priscilla Queen of the Desert

I am quite fond of him in The Matrix, I can tolerate him as Elrond.

He does enunciate beatifully.

*beautifully

over enunciate tho

"I was there the day the strength of men failed"

Could be from The Matrix or LOTR.

Weaving often doesn’t tone down his stage style for the screen but is great or fine in Proof, Priscilla, Bodyline, Bangkok Hilton, The Interview, Mystery Road, The Dressmaker, Royal Hotel et al

Now you might observe that most of these are clustered before he started doing things for money on American schedules, but I couldn’t possibly comment

Yes, The Interview is good as well!

i am pleased to be able to play the other role itt for a change ty guys

Come on, he made The Matrix.

once i got past the dramatic urge to yell at you for your (correct) use of pronouns my mind immediately jumped to this

also one hell of a chin. definite "writer's hair" though.

let's try those tags again

I'm sure he's been mentioned already and I don't think anyone likes him but I just watched Bradley Cooper in Maestro and he's so terrible in it

I’ve always hated Hugo Weaving. Guy Pearce too.

Bryce Dallas Howard is bad, but I feel sorry for her bc she always seems like she’s who people call when “we can’t afford Jessica Chastain”

Can’t stand Evan Rachel Wood, but I haven’t seen Kajillionaire yet, and she was good as Madonna

Is Domnhall Gleeson an option? I don’t like him at all

Terrible takes, please leave the thread

Righto!

I'm sure he's been mentioned already and I don't think anyone likes him but I just watched Bradley Cooper in Maestro and he's so terrible in it

sorry fgti they are terrible takes i must agree

your (correct) use of pronouns

Not quite sure what you mean.

I was probably pretty vague; I meant that Weaving was the best part of the film, imho.

you were totally clear tbh

Gal Gadot surely warrants mention.

sorry fgti they are terrible takes i must agree

Maybe you should add “Irish actors” to the perpetually-safe bin along with “stunt-cast musician cameos”

Tell me a good G Byrne/Gleeson Jr. performance and I’ll watch it, and eat my words if you are correct

Miller's Crossing leaps to mind

Excellent movie, no comment on man’s performance
