Where to start....

Sistinas666 11-10-2011 09:57 AM

Pretty much any move with Nicolas Cage in the last 12 years(other than Kick-Ass)....

neverending 11-10-2011 10:15 AM

Al Pacino is in the latest Adam Sandler Fiasco.

Robert DeNiro in Limitless.

I didnt think the movie was necessarily bad, I just think the film was just too small time for an actor with his prestige.

I actually like it when an actor does that. It shows he's not just working for the money, he saw something in a project that he liked and did it regardless of the budget. I'd much rather see that than some of the crap actors of stature will do just for the money.

I think you misunderstood the thread.... It's about good actors in bad movies. :p

metternich1815 04-03-2013 11:41 AM

Nicholas Cage is a great actor. It's just he gets into alot of bad movies.

metternich1815 04-03-2013 11:48 AM

Christian Bale in Terminator Salvation.

Fulg HoarAR 04-03-2013 08:17 PM

pretty much everyone with a starring role in Caligula, LOL @ Jaws the revenge, I love it when the shark growls, its worthy of Ed Wood, and it is a shame about Nicholas Cage he was a good actor, he must be taking his advice from Kevin Costner...or the IRS

Bahahaha - I actually enjoyed that movie... Would I call it "good?" Not necessarily but I had fun watching it.

metternich1815 04-05-2013 08:27 AM

That movie is probably in my top ten worst films ever list! I absolutely hated that movie. The acting was terrible. The action predictable. The story made absolutely no sense (when you could actually find one). The worst part of the movie was that the skies were BLUE! BLUE! After a global nuclear war! How did they miss that one? I could describe what was good about it in two sentences tops. In order to explain everything bad about it would take all day at least (I have provided a general outline of the worst of this film).

roshiq 04-05-2013 09:20 AM

Michael Fassbender in Jonah Hex.
