Why do you guys have problems with method acting?

>>87633384
method acting is fine, "method acting" is not

to correctly do this, you need to place your thoughts in a similar pattern to your character's. you don't just emulate their psychological disorder in your daily life or decide to stop wearing shoes because the character doesn't wear shoes; this is obviously not actual method acting to anyone who understands it at all.

It's just retarded. Why not just act when you need to and don't be an annoying cunt when you don't need to? If you can deliver a performance of equal quality when behaving this way (i.e. like a normal human being), then you're better than the equivalent method actor.

On top of being obnoxious and pretentious ("sorry Daniel Day Lewis isn't here right now, I'm someone else"), it's often used for publicity more than anything else. And its often so dumb that a meme evolves out of it, like we saw with Leto's joker.

Depends on the place it's coming from.
If you're doing to it to gain attention on Conan you're a faggot. But if you want to feel as bad as a character to really dive deep it's ok.

Method acting is for shitty actors who can't act. How many jobs or even forms of art are there that require you to do them 24/7 in order to do them? Not to mention how shitty meme actors don't even deliver performances that are noticably better than regular good actors.

Acting takes practice. Good actors are hard to come by but i think anyone has the potential to be a good actor.

So how do actors prepare for a scene where they're supposed to cry?

Someone off camera blows menthol into their eyes. Did you actually think these people were talented?

A few scenes would easily show the range of most actors.

Being able to get the viewer to immerse himself/herself into the scene is a whole different thing
