>tfw you realize an actor has actual range and they've been miscast in every other big role they've had
Yes, Matrix ruined him
most professional actors do,
>>84456075
He was great in this.
Such range
>>84456169
actually, so was Garfield
>>84456075
Check out some smaller NZ / Aus movies in his filmography. Hes truly a great actor.
>>84456185
he's such a shit actor, got the stage presence of a boot and his range is pretty much screaming, delivering exposition or talking low through his teeth.
>>84456075
>miscast
>multiple roles he made iconic
Ok then
>>84456075
I actually had to stop watching for a minute while watching this as I was completely blown away. The Matrix and LotR has typecasted him so badly
>>84456250
Don't forget the retard
>>84456075
You know when actor is good when you have no idea how he behaves casual on day to day basis.
>>84456075
>Cloud Atlas
>Matrix
>Lotr
>V for Vendetta
>Hacksaw
Even if you only watch his hollywood films you have to realise that OP.
Maggie was legit good
>dude dis actor has teh range!!
>literally only difference between any of his other roles is hes using an accent
>>84456596
>is australian
>plays americans/english in most movies
?????????????????
>>84456125
Fuck you!
>>84456313
Learn with this man OP. Stop being a shitty /tv/ shithead.
>>84456488
>cloud atlas
implying anyone watched this or cares
>v for vendetta
>matrix
>lotr
>almost completely emotionless characters
hmmmmmmmmmm
>>84456596
>matrix
>lotr
>stoic or mild irritation
>only some kind of emotion at the very end
>hacksaw
>drunk, emotional throughout the film, prone to heavy mood swings
k
>>84456662
Thats not an argument anon.
>>84456075
So, which role pigeonholed him? Lord of the Rings, V for Vendetta or Matrix?
>>84456744
HAHAHAHAHAHA
He's a fucking awful actor.
>>84456620
He never had a southern accent in any other movie.
>>84456876
the matrix. hes really just played smith in everything
>>84456075
Hacksaw Ridge was last years MOTY and was robbed during awards season
>>84456990
It was cheesy as fuck garbage. Mel has completely lost it.
>>84456906
he rises to the occasion of whatever movie he's in, doesn't make the movie better or worse
>>84456950

Probably the best Stiller's movie too.
Weaving is a great actor, everyone should watch his Australian indie films. Pic related and The Interview (1998) as well.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TTBAe6885us
His best performance by a fucking mile and I don't think he says 'fuck' once
>>84456185
>young Dylann Roof killing insect of color
>>84457102
He was better in Pulp Fiction.
>>84457168
His character in Pulp Fiction is interchangeable with dozens of his other characters.
>loud
>violent
>black
>says fuck a lot

t.atheist redditor rick and morty watcher
>>84457015
Reddit. How about you go back there so you can discuss how gay BBCs are superior
>>84456075
How can he be "miscast" when hes the perfect Agent Smith and Elrond.
If all his roles after The Matrix had been generic government agents then you might have had a point.
>>84457015
Found the limp wristed beta lads
He literally kills every role I've seen him in so far besides game of memes
>>84457242
>>84457314
>>84457337
You're convincing anyone with your manly macho man act you tryhard morons
>>84457378
>>84457364
he was a bit of a meme in gods of egypt
>>84457417
Alright, I'll give you that. That said, the entire movie was a bit of a meme
>>84456075
Is this news?
He's been good in practically everything he's touched for the last twenty years.
Riding in cars with boys.
>>84456075
>Who is Mads Mikkelsen
>>84456075
>"those kikes... those FUCKING KIKES.. they've lured us into yet another war between the white nations"
geez Mel, chill the fuck out man you just made it back into Hollywood
>>84457760
Oh, he's that sad guy from Doctor Strange!
Watch the Australian film Strangerlands.
Speaking of that actor:
The Interview is a good movie.
>>84456075
You do know that he did movies before 1999 correct?
>>84458390
>being in the 90s equivalent of Space Cop is a movie guys!
lets get the meme answer out of the way
>One hit after another in Korea
>comes to US
>GI Joe, "Magnificent" 7, Terminator Genysis
>>84456075
Have you not seen priscilla: queen of the desert? He's a great actor. Also his performance as V was pretty great. The way he manages to emote through the mask, the physical acting, and his voice is incredible.
Sad to see how old he looked in hacksaw ridge.
his career is probably over but he was so good in terminator 2, american history x, animal factory, jimmy and judy, all pretty different roles
lose some fucking weight and get your shit together
>>84458549
wew pleb
>>84458549
What are you going on about?
>>84457038
Watching this movie high was the most disorientating film experience I've ever had.
I'm pretty sure at some points it felt like I was watching an actual behind-the-scenes documentary.
>>84456188
Lets not get ahead of ourselves.
Thought he got lucky with as good as it gets. This and we were soldiers changed my mind.
>>84456662
>>v for vendetta
>>almost completely emotionless characters
>>84457102
>They called me Mr. Glass
>>84456662
Agent Smith is not emotionless, retard. Neo has less emotion than he does.
>>84460220
I know its greg kinnear but what movie?
>>84460220
watch auto-focus too, pure kino
plus it has willem dafoe
>>84460806

>>84459796
This is unrelated to most of the thread but I'm an attention seeking faggot. What other actors have you anons seen that looked old all of a sudden and made you sad? Mine is tommy Lee Jones in men in black 3
>>84459880
LE DRUGS LMAO AM I COOL OR WHAT!!! WHAT A TRIP HOLY KEK
>>84456662
>almost completely emotionless characters
The fuck are you talking about?
>>84460663
>watching meme movies because of le anonomouse is leejun
What criteria even constitutes a "good actor" /tv/?
>>84457015
I thought the movie has a sort of b movie feel/its so bad its good, like when he uses that torso as a meat shield i was rolling it really is like a ww2 version of windtalkers
>>84456906
>The Nice Guys
>bad acting
No pleb, no.
>>84462024
>real life is unrealistic
>>84457760
becoming famous in hollywood ruined him, hes bland as fuck lately
>>84459835
>he was so good in terminator 2
he literally ruined terminator 2
>>84461982
When you've seen two movies of his and are surprised he was in both because the characters are so different
>>84457102
what went wrong with shyamalan lads?
>>84462412
he got caught up in his own "style" i think
>>84461931
Neck yourself
>>84462431
I heard split was good. Is it worth a look?
>>84456185
>going full retard
Smdh
>>84456075
>not knowing about Hugo Weaving's acting career
This board is so full of plebs holy shit
>>84456250
The Revenant, Basketball Diaries, catch me if you can.
Now go kill yourself
>>84459907
Pretty much the only good thing to come out of Social Network. Armie Hamme is a cool dude, but he hasn't really done much.
>>84456250
And yet he has won an Academy Award and makes millions and millions of dollars doing what he loves and just banging the brains out of super models while taking exquisite drugs and eating like a fat dump only to hire a personal trainer before each and every movie role where he is guaranteed universal praise and 60++ million dollars per movie he has a hand in.
>>84457218
>black
Das raycuss
>>84456492
I actually agree with this
>>84462792
no, he's right.
Leo sucks dick. Catch me if you can is a good movie but he is playing himself.
>>84462723
i have no idea. i haven't been paying much attention to new film in the last decade
>>84456620
He did a good job. 90% of non American English speakers accents are terrible and don't sound like anywhere in America. For instance, Sam worthington, Russell Crowe, and Liam neeson Just do a scratchy "tough" voice that sounds stupid.
>>84461931
Go back to /v/eddit.
>>84462556
Go back to bl/a/cked.
>>84456662
what the fuck, agent Smith is really playful and sinister, did you not pick up on that at all? Elrond is more stoic and a bit brooding because of a heavy past. Not similar at all.
Worst post of the month.
>>84462723
Yeah Split is good, not back to his best but certainly a lot better than the majority of the shit he's put out in the last few years.
He was good in Twelve Memekeys too but this was his best performance outside of his usual shtick.
>>84461254
Patrick stewart in logan... I really hope they slathered some extra old man makeup on him for that.
Brad pitt in war machine surprised me too.
>>84461982
Range
Subtlety
Delivery
Mannerisms
etc
Didn't you ever go to film school?
>>84462805
And anon said nothing to contradict this. He just said he's a shit actor.
>>84456662
>muh crying and screaming
Subtlety is acting too
>>84462723
Based McAvoy is in it, even if it was a shit movie he manages to elevate everything he's in. Children of Dune is only watchable because of him.
And the ayy lmaofu has managed to really impress me between VVitch and this.
Split was surprisingly good though, definitely worth a watch.
Jackie Chan and Jaden Smith in The Karate Kid
Honestly the movie is kinda meh but they put in brilliant performances acting-wise.
>>84462792
>Basketball Diaries
My nigger! That movie doesn't get enough love. As far as I'm concerned that was his oscar worthy performance.
>>84456662
>agent smith
>emotionless
>motive entirely driven by emotions
hmmmmmmmm
>>84462804
>Armie Hamme is a cool dude, but he hasn't really done much.
Lone Ranger tanked his career I think.
