The only other role I remember that's different is P&R (he's still cracking stupid jokes, but in the show he's borderline retarded versus the "save the day" type): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulSkin Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 I feel like Travolta has surely ruined a potentially decent movie on his own, but you can double down on terribleness with Nicholas Cage in Face off, and Di Nero in Killing Season.

Two of my favorite movies ever are Wild at Heart and Raising Arizona. I liked him in a bunch of other stuff too. One movie more kind of on topic: not sure if it was just the movie(script/plot/whatever), or him, but Ghost Rider was horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spaceman Spiff Posted February 28, 2018 Author Share Posted February 28, 2018 6 hours ago, PleaseBlitz said: I think the fun of the thread (and it's GOLD) is to name popular movie characters that you can't stand. For example, I will go with Sam "Ace" Rothstein from Casino. Hey Ace! Your ****ing wife, who you have done everything for, is stepping out on you with some weaselly pimp. Your best friend murders people EVERY DAY, occasionally by sticking their heads in a ****ing vice. How about taking some real ****ing action here instead of being a giant ****? Sorta. They don't have to be POPULAR. I don't think Adrian was ever really popular, at least I hope she wasn't. They just can't be an all out villain (like Danny DeVito playing Penguin in Batman Returns. Which was terrible). 3 hours ago, pjfootballer said: Characters not actors. Some of you are missing the premise of the thread. Precisely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop, the point of the thread is about specific characters, not about the actors who play them. Yours and the Tom Cruise post are about the actors abd just because you put “any character played by” in front of their names doesn’t change that. I actually like the concept of this thread, so please no mucking it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgold Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Laura Dern ... Vice Admiral Holdo in the Last Jedi. Felt she was going through the motions, hated the writing for her character too, and then they try to give her the noble heroic death scene. Blah! Bad acting, bad writing, character trumped up to be important that came out of nowhere to lord it over everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoony Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Princess leia was AWFUL in the most recent star wars movie. Trying to push out lines in the fog of opiates behind her dentures... it was like she just woke up and her jaw were wired shut. Also, as much as i loved reservoir dogs, mr. Orange was awful. Tim roth totally over acted that entire movie, and spent 2/3 of it grunting and crying like a ****. Annoying Also, one of my favorite movies of all time was almost ruined by Michael Rapaport (true romance). How is this guy an actor? Serious question Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very sad that it was Carrie Fisher's last role, because she was a hell of an actress in her prime. But holy smokes she didn't even try to conceal her boredom during that film.

Dont Taze Me Bro Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Smokey and the Bandit 3 - Jerry Reed portraying The Bandit was horrible. So was the female side kick Dusty Trails (played by Colleen Camp) that replaced Sally Fields char. They should have stopped after the second one. Tossed out his name specifically because his double down on roles (Snowman/Bandit) made his character annoying imo. Also, every character in Highlander 2 - The Quickening, from Connor MacLeod (Christopher Lambert), Ramirez (Sean Connery) to General Katana (Michael Ironside), including any random characters like a waitress, etc. They completely ruined the characters (from the first one and the additional/new chars were annoying too) with a horrible script and story, which is why diehard Highlander fans like myself don't count this movie as part of the story line. I know it's not a movie, but I'm going to put it out there anyhow because thinking of Highlander made me remember. The character Charlie DeSalvo in the Highlander TV series. He used to annoy me, even though his character was one of the good guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lombardi's_kid_brother Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 You guys are seriously just terrible at everything you do. No wonder you are all virgins who live on house boats. I've spent half my life trying to decide if Godfather III is secretly fantastic or the wreck everyone believes it is. I don't think the disaster in that is Sofia Coppola, though she was obviously asked to do too much. The problem is Talia Shire's Connie. She transformed from naïve girl to alcoholic disaster to the freakin' Godmother without any explanation. Michael's daughter was poorly acted. Connie was poorly conceived, executed, acted, costumed, etc. I'm sure everyone here hates it, because you are all masculine men who smoke meats all day long, but the absolute worst part of Titantic is Billy Zane. He's not exactly Olivier to begin with, but that dude should have had a mustache that he twirled in every scene. I love Judd Hirsch as an actor, but what the hell was he doing in Independence Day by playing Jackie Mason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Evil Genius Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Talia Shire though is just another Coppola (she's Sofia's and Nic Cage's aunt and Francis Ford's sister)..I'm sensing a theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoCalMike Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Maybe it's unfair but I hate the little girl character from The Lost World. As soon as the movie opened up with her failing her gymnastics tryout I just knew there would be a scene near the end of the movie with her pulling some kind of lame move to save the day. Turns out it was even worse then I had imagined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven;t seen the most recent... but i thought she was tiresome in the "Force Awakens" (second most recent? third most recent???) .... but Han Solo was worse. Far worse. Harrison Ford totally mailed it in, sucked donkey choad, and since he was THE main focus of the movie, basically ruined it. (I thought the new characters were mostly good... but the actor playing new villain (Kylie Wrenn?) kinda sucked also.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan T. Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 The Florida Project featured little Brooklyn Prince as "Moonie" in one of the best childhood performances I have ever seen in a film. Bar none. What a natural she is. (Willem Dafoe as the mothel manager was really good in the movie too.) That said, Moonie's friend, the character Scooty, just couldn't keep up. It think it must be really hard and risky to do a film driven by child actors, because bad ones can ruin scenes and good ones are so hard to find. (The girl who played Jancey, the other friend in the film, was pretty damn good too.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
