re: Actors That Fell Off

This may be a stretch, but I think Will Ferrell has fallen off, starting with Semi-Pro (not terrible, but definitely not up to par) and continuing the downward spiral with "Land of the Lost" or whatever that horrible movie was called.

Most of these guys fall into two categories.
Some are notorious assholes or just hard to work with (Val Kilmer and Christian Slater).
Others just sell out and do shitty movies for tons of money (Cage, Eddie Murphy, Kingsley, and I guess Madsen).
However, I am confused about Snipes and Cuba Gooding Jr. Would they really fall into either position?
Among actresses, a good one is Mira Sorvino.

Michael Keaton comes to mind.

Too soon to say Ferrell is off the cliff.
I doubt it, but I do think he will make just about anything for a buck so he needs a manager to slow him down and make his choices better. He needs his own E.

Snipes almost makes no sense. He must be know amongst director's as an a-hole otherwise I can't understand how he just disappeared like Cuba.
Isn't he in prison for tax evasion?

I think people finally realized that he is really not that funny and quit going to see his movies.

He is still on bail pending his appeal but it is doubtful he wins his appeal. He has some jail time coming his way at some point.

Snipes is gonna be in Brooklyns Finest coming up about dirty cops. looks awesome.

One could make a case for Al Pacino. Given his past, he definitely has taken a serious tumble.
His toupee did a better job of acting in 88 Minutes than Al.

Cuba Gooding Jr. and Val Kilmer are good choices.

Rutger and Donald just got a case of Old.
I wouldn't call being in Dark Knight and Harry Potter being off the cliff for Oldman.

forgot about him being in the new batmen movies..and i havent seen the potter movies so i'll give you that.
i thought it was curtains for him after 'lost in space'. i shook my head after that one after he DOMINATED sid and nancy, romeo is bleeding, true romance and leon.

i don't think micheal keaton likes hollywood too much but i will never forget how much i liked him in beetlejuice. i think the same could be said for jeff daniels. i love alot of his work and think he's a great actor i just don't think he likes working in hollywood much.

New Jack City was the highest grossing indie flick the year that it came out. White Men Can't Jump also did well that year. Featured roles in Jungle Fever, Demolition Man. Snipes had been in more than a few big roles before Blade.

I disagree with Kingsley. Both "Sexy Beast" and "House of Sand and Fog" were semi-recent and he was amazing in them. He's still got it in him to do great things on-screen; I'll pardon him for the occasional misstep here & there.

And some of the films Snipes was in were not big hits but they were big gigs to get. U.S. Marshals, Murder at 1600 and Rising Sun.
