Wooden Actors

[jesusbuiltmycar]

Following on from the other posts, Who's the most wooden actor out there?? I would nominate either
Hugh Grant - The same crap delivery, playing some sort of brainless tt
or
Vin Diesel - in XXX his part could have been replaced with a bar stool and the film would have been improved greatly...

There's a sequel to XXX. Can't wait. The first one was utter carp and the sequel is bound to be worse.

The Governator of California. Arnold "The understudy to the Plank" Schwarzenegger. He only just beats Vin Diesel though..

I remember when Dennis Pennis pounced on Hugh Grant at some film premiere and said 'Wow Hugh...that was quite a performance you gave in that film...I've never seen anything so wooden; what did you do, look at a chair beforehand for inspiration?'
All Grant could manage was' Oh just off!'

Actually I quite like Hugh Grant ...my vote would have to go to Dolph Lundgren as being the most wooden actor ever.

Vin Diesel is diabolical IMHO. The film XXX was a charmless and abysmal 007 knock off.

Arnie has his desperate moments such as The Last Action Hero, but then redeams himslef with movies like True Lies - which strangely was also a Bond spoof - but this time directed by James Cameron and brilliant.

I think Colin Firth is pretty lumber-like. But millions of women would no doubt disagree...

Leonardo Di Slaprio. Worst actor. Ever.

Noone has mentioned Keanu Reeves yet

Given a choice between his acting career and his singing career.

Hes a bloody great actor (comparatively).

He'd get my vote for the worst english accent ever in Dracula - I kept expecting him to say Dude every time he opened his mouth....

Worse than Dick Van Dyke in Mary Poppins? Winona Ryders English accent in Dracula was a very close second to Keanu's in awfulness.

Kevin Costner. About the only film he was ever any good in was "The Untouchables"

Roger Moore's creaking eyebrows?
