To compliment the other thread, and to help liven up this little section of PH a bit.

I'll start with:



'Nic' Cage.

And no, 'Face/Off' IS st.

Con Air was a great film. Cheesy, sure, but still great.

Unfortunetly you have given the only possible answer to this thread.

But John Travolta runs him a close second. (yeah ok Grease is alright.)

He has made 'some' decent films (Raising Arizona, Leaving Las Vegas, The Weatherman, Lord of War) but far more tripe, he seems to have fallen into being typecast into National Treasure type roles too, not good!

Oh I'm sure that there's more.

Travolta was in Pulp Fiction so you can't have him!

Adam Sandler and Owen Wilson.

I would inlcude Ben Stiller in that axis of evil but There's Something About Mary is watchable as long as you block out the Stiller bits.

Indeed, where he was acted off the set by Samuel L Jackson, Bruce Willis and even QT himself. (the good coffee speech)
Travoltas big acting thing seems to be "How I can I smoke a cigarette in a more ridiculous way in every film that I'm in?"

Adam Sandler, Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, Ben Stiller, and Kevin Costner all deserve a mention. I doubt any of them could claim better than "stinking up a very average movie".

nono ... the FIRST one was very good. The others were ruined by Greengrass and his poxy wobblycam.

Matt Damon and Benn Affleck wrote and starred in Good Will Hunting. A very good film.

Even if I'm not allowed the Kevin Smith films (as per the other thread), there is Smokin Aces to consider.

Vin Diesel was in Saving Private Ryan, and also I think that Pitch Black is a good film too.

I'm nominating Woody Allen. I just cannot bare watching anything that he is in ...... also Charlie Chaplin / Marx Brothers, or any of that old slapslick toss.

I thought matchstick men was excellent (went straight to dvd?!)

Also agree Jack black ruins anything he is in (Like Vernon Kay/Chris Moyles on UK TV)
