Jim Carrey. Feh.

Buffista Movies Across the 8th Dimension!
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Casey Affleck, and I'm none too keen on Ben just now.
Old school, Robert Mitchum (with an exception for Night of the Hunter, because Agee and Gish).
Tom Cruise, and Sarah Silverman, weirdly.
Tom Cruise and Mel Gibson. Except I watched Chicken Run with my nephew the other day and Gibson as a rooster is tolerable.
Kevin Costner would be another. I'm sure there are other but I don't watch a lot of movies
Tom Cruise, with an exception made for Interview with the Vampire.
Gibson, surely. William Hurt, Michael Fassbender (which can be a problem for me because I love McAvoy, and he's often pictured with MF), Woody Allen and anyone who supports him, anyone who supports Roman Polanski. Known abusers a glimpse of whom turn my stomach and take me out of any fictional narrative.
Cruise for different reasons, and an emphatic negative reaction to Costner.
Adam Sandler used to be on mine, but I just watched The Meyerowitz Stories on Netflix and Sandler is really fucking great in it. He should quit writing/directing/producing his own "comedic" material and just let people he trusts with discerning tastes pick good roles for him. The dude can ACT.
Love him in Punch Drunk Love and not much else. Didn't know Meyerowitz was on Netflix! I will check it out.
Kevin Costner would be another.
Even Bull Durham?
Tom Cruise
I want to see Edge of Tomorrow though.
Jim Carrey.
Not even Eternal Sunshine? Or especially because of it?
re: Jim Carrey, I like The Mask, but really only for the dance scenes.
Jim Carrey.
Not even Eternal Sunshine? Or especially because of it?
I tolerated him in Eternal Sunshine, but my hatred was keeping me warm. I just can't stand his stupid face. Seriously. It's irrational as hell, but I hate his face and those stupid leers.
I want to see Edge of Tomorrow though.
It's SUPER good. It's basically the first 2 episodes of this season of The Good Place, but with killer aliens. And Tom Cruise as Eleanor Shellstrop. (Actually, that's pretty much EXACTLY what it's like. He really is Eleanor.)
Many of the actors mentioned are on my Do Not Watch list, but almost everyone has an exception movie or two. Movies I fell in love with in spite of said person. I think Mel Gibson and Woody Allen are my only full stop people.
I do surprise myself with the number of exceptions I allow Adam Sandler. Cause, face value, I'd say I'm not a fan. But there are at least a handful of his movies I'll happily watch.
