Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I avoid movies with Sylvester Stallone. And Tom Hanks = Spielburg is a combination I tend to avoid. Otherwise, there are actors who will get me to see a movie, but not many that actually drive me away from doing so.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Tom used to be on my list, but somehow I saw and enjoyed Minority Report, and Collateral is waiting to be viewed (but that's me trying to work out if there's a need for Foxx-love, mostly). Michael Douglas is DEFINITELY on my list, and Mel has been for a while, although Lethal Weapon is still a favourite movie.
I like Ben Affleck. Totally unsure why.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Kevin Kostner?
No, I take that back - Waterworld and The Postman were both pretty funny....

Actors that I will avoid movies because of:
I only have 2, but they're inviolable -- Jim Carrey and Mel Gibson.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Michael Douglas
The thing is, give the guy a right role, and the dude can act. Much as I hate the whole Fatal Attraction/Disclosure/Basic Instinct skeevy Michael Douglas, I have to say I kind of adored him in Wonder Boys.
My Mel Gilbson dislike is pretty thorough though.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
I never got the impression that The Rock buys his own press. He's seemed such a warm and mellow and modest guy in interview, and perfectly willing to shed his WWF persona at the drop of a hat to mock himself.
He is adorable in interviews- very modest and sweet.

I have a plan.
Kevin Kostner?

May I direct your attention towards 'Robin Hood'? Who's only saving grace may have been Alan Rickman but even then. eugh

Kevin Kostner makes me sad, because I loved his character in Silverado.
I enjoy The Rock, and in the one or two interviews I've seen, he seemed like a decent, normal sort who was unfull of himself.
We had a sudden, fierce snow flurry that stuck to the ground a couple of hours ago. Now it's all gone. Weird.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Just read the Playboy interview and he's very funny although less self-effacing there than in live interviews I've seen.
