Guest Nanks Report post Posted April 21, 2004 Are there any actors whose movies you will always go and see regardless of the plot, etc?? For mine, I always make sure I catch Ed Norton, Brad Pitt, Sean Connery, Jim Carrey & Adam Sandler flicks. (Yeah, I know it's a weak topic, but I'm trying to avoid study, so this is what I'm going with, this is further evidenced by my Snooker thread in Sports. Sorry......)

Youth N Asia 0 Report post Posted April 21, 2004 Ehh, while I won't flock to a movie based on an actor. I'm more likely to see a movie with: Alyson Hannigan, Tom Hanks, Bruce Campbell, or Jim Carrey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mik 0 Report post Posted April 21, 2004 I see any movie with Owen Wilson, Johnny Depp, and Jim Carrey. Actress wise, I have none, but Uma Thurman is getting there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest El Satanico Report post Posted April 21, 2004 None I don't give a fuck who's starring, I must be interested in the story of the movie. If I'm standing on the fence of being interested, a favorite actor being in it may make me lean towards wanting to see it at some point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nighthawk 0 Report post Posted April 21, 2004 All the ones named so far along with DeNiro....I know there are more but I can't think right now, heh So basically you see every movie that comes out. I won't see a movie based on an actor, but there are some who'll get the movie on my radar faster. Depp, James Gandolfini (though funnily enough I've only just recently watched the Sopranos), maybe a few more. More directors than actors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spiny norman 0 Report post Posted April 21, 2004 I agree with IDRM, more into directors than certain actors. While in the 70s De Niro was a must-see, the 80s we had Harrison Ford and in the 90s we had Tom Hanks for the first half and Kevin Spacey for the second half, I don't feel anyone is able to do that right now. I'm surprised some people have Connery on their list: he hasn't done anything worthwhile since Hunt For Red October, nearly fifteen years ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Dids Report post Posted April 21, 2004 Directors are what move me, not actors. That said- if you have Norton, Owen Wilson, Will Ferrell, William H. Macy or Depp I'll be more interested. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted April 21, 2004 Samuel L. Jackson. Historically speaking, see my avatar. Clark Gable is an effing pimp. Same with Humphrey Bogart. He was hot shit back in his day. So much so that in Casablanca, a young Ingrid Bergman has her chin held very low through most of it, because her jaw was shaking so bad while filming with him.
