Did anyone mention Benecio Tel Toro? He killed The Wolfman. Hopkins was the only thing that kept that movie worth watching.

I'm guess I'm too old to find Emma Watson hot

She's way hotter in Stranger than Fiction, then is all droopy dog face in TDK

I totally agree with you. I had a huge crush on her in Stranger than fiction.

She's probably smoking.

Kevin Costner in Robin Hood is the correct answer.

To me its hayden christensen as anakin skywalker and its not even close. He ruined those movies for me. His acting, particularly in attack of the clones was some of the worst acting ever. I remember laughing at some scenes they were so bad. I never thought I would do that watching a star wars movie.

Kirsten Dunst in Bring it On was also a terrible miscast. HS cheerleaders are short with muscular bodies and are perky for the most part. She's an artsy, gangly snaggletooth pale bigheaded pile of fugly IMO

also most rappers in movies are miscast, especially when they play cops. It's not so much that they are terrible actors(though some are), it's just impossible to believe their characters.

Ironically, this was her only good scene in that entire movie.

She has an unusual but pretty face and can be very, very sexy. I think the guys around here that don't like her probably have 1) Sports Illustrated cover girl or 2) any blonde with big hair and big tits as their ideal.

Owen Wilson in Behind Enemy Lines

Great call on this.


bad call imo. the role calls for someone who doesn't fit the mold as a typical army guy. the character didn't fit in in the Navy and was trying to get out when all the shite went down. an actor like Wilson with a lighthearted jokester personality that is able to draw on something deeper is exactly the type of person you want in that role.

Justin Long in Waiting. He normally plays awkward nerds or gay dudes. Him in a leading part with a hot gf was off

and i guess the point is that, even if she was unattractive, that's really not the point. the reasons for her love of the two main characters go beyond physical attractiveness.

And Jake Lloyd as Anakin Skywalker. Honestly I can't put it all on the casting. Who knows how much better their performances could have been if the script would have been at least competent and they had a director who actually knows how to direct actors.
