the sex scenes in BI are just laughable lol...i'm sure they were titillating way back in the ancient 90s but on rewatch now 🤣🤣🤣

ohhh i forgot about Gilbert Grape! good movie, but he was still pretty one-note. Leo was the breakout star of that one.
i don't recall Nick of Time
you kind of prove my point with the others...over-the-top/caricatures. but i will concede it takes a particular kind of talent to pull off HST, Willie Wonka, the Mad Hatter and Jack Sparrow. point taken.

i don't think at any point? his death was obviously a catalyst for many last summer, and it did seem to galvanize more white people to join/support the movement. the fact that his murderer was actually tried and convicted is certainly novel. but BLM was around long before his death.

second the 'Sharp Objects' similarities... even down to cattiness of old high school 'friends'.
i just want to make sure i followed the story correctly...she has a lesbian, teen mom daughter who appears to do academically well, and her ex-husband lives within shouting distance with his new fiance' and he remains extremely close with her actual family (mom, cousin, etc).
both those circumstances are... unusual.

... role had little or no range and he could just be this [wise, grisly, tough protagonist] that he is good in. But watch it critically when he is on screen with other great actors (and his movies have had a shitload of great actors)...but he is a bigger "movie star".
hmm... with this criteria, i offer...Clint Eastwood. comedy, romance, drama, action, western, heist, war ...he's pretty much done everything. and it's all pretty much one-note Clint.
his movies are great, and he's definitely a movie star... but he's not winning any acting awards.
literally. i looked it up 😄

He crushed the Jessie's Girl scene.
god yes... to this day that scene gets me, that look he got in his eye, it's really hard to describe...i literally still go thru a catalog of what Dirk might be feeling in that moment.
that and the scene with his mother were incredible. BN is my favorite PTA movie and it's not close.

edited to clarify...caricature/cartoonish... feels like the bulk of his career. Tim Burton has certainly made him a lot of money!
actually, that reminds me...in the female category i'd add Winona Ryder. altho she's probably not really A-list anymore. but i've always thought she was one-note, mediocre at best... can't recall anything she ever did that required real acting chops. the only thing i can recall her really stretching herself in was The Crucible.

Fake blonde.
Always the fake blondes.
Sweatergawd, real blondes conform less to the myth than the imposters.
(goes for either gender)
thank you...as a real blonde i have always said this, don't lump me in with the stereotype! 😠

the most underrated Coen bros flick imo and one of my favorite Pitt roles. Pitt's range is huge.
Cruise may be coasting at this point but he has acted his ass off many, many times.
DeNiro is like top 3 best actors ever.
the above opinions are just wrong lol 😋
also...agree on Wahlberg's range in general, but he deserved an Oscar nod for Boogie Nights.
i submit...Johnny Depp. he excels at over-the-top caricature/cartoonish and period pieces...but i can't really recall any other dramatic roles...Donnie Brasco i guess, but he was pretty dull next to Pacino and Madsen. i don't do chick-flicks tho, i guess he also has a bunch of those, he is pretty to look at. i suppose he has a niche that i just don't 'get'.

this looks like a tragic but probably justified shooting...
but i don't know whether to be impressed by his dead aim or horrified that he would risk hitting the girl in pink 😐
-
um, so ANYway...i probably mostly feel relief.
i believe justice was served, as they say. i hope he also gets an appropriate sentence. but it feels like we are in such a precarious balance with everything... this is just one thing that happened to tilt a different way this time.
i i'm not convinced it's a pattern. yet.

oh god somehow i ended up with a 'stand with Mackenzie Kelly and vote FOR prop b!' ad on my fb feed 🤣🤣🤣
my voting preference aside, i was soooo tempted to comment something, er, 'colorful', seeing as how i witnessed '8 days to new boobs!' from the beginning. 😄
but its fb so it's my real name, boo...i just hid the ad lol.

holy shit at the prices mentioned above 😳 glad we got ours 15 years ago! we're also in central Austin so space was limited, we ended up with 13,500 gallons for only about 35k.
csb: we finished construction around Christmas 2005...and i made a bet with my husband, if the Longhorns won i would 'christen' the pool. they did, i did... and i almost gave myself a heart attack bc the water temp was like 40 degrees! 😁
anyway...renovation near completion! 2 week delay on plaster but they got it done this morning and i love it! 😍😁 my goal was for it to be as blue as possible, i think this is gonna look great with water in it!
acid wash tomorrow am and then start water, should be full some time Thursday... exciting!
OH...but we still need some landscaping, ugh... those ugly stumps around the waterfall used to be gorgeous huge 15 year old fan palms ☹ guess we'll try to buy some semi-mature ones to replace them. putting this place on the market in about a year and definitely want to bill it as 'an urban oasis'!

i guess later on he tweeted this...
which...yeah okay, all those cultures contributed to the settlement of this country, sure...but when talking about groups that are basically the core of the history and culture of this country, i'd argue that you have FOUR major groups...
Europeans (which include ALL of those he mentions), African/slaves, Mexicans, and Native Americans.
the pie chart has a lot of wedges, but some of the biggest ones aren't who he thinks.

Movie Stars That Are Not Good Actors
in Movies and TV

ahhh...ok, so i think maybe what you're really getting at is the difference between a leading man and a character actor.
Denzel is a leading man, no doubt. as are Pitt and Cruise (also mentioned in this thread).
PSH was a character actor (pretty much one of the best ever if you ask me). Gary Oldman is a character actor. Leo is character actor.
hell, i'd argue Pacino is a leading man v. DeNiro as a character actor.
my point is, just bc you can never 'forget' you are watching one of those leading men on screen, i wouldn't describe them as having limited range.
hell, Jack Nicholson is never NOT 'Jack Nicholson' and he's got 3 well-deserved Oscars 😁
