July 8, 20223 yr Did Clint cry in Paint Your Wagon? I rest my case.If Bridges of Madison County were a musical with Lee fucking Marvin I would say it was worse. Paint Your Wagon is bad enough to make you swear off movies forever. My mother took me with her to see it when I was a kid and under today’s laws would have been charged with child abuse.

And I thought he was great in Argo (fuck yourself) Some time not too long after Good Will Hunting, I instituted a Ben Affleck movie ban after he put out crap movie after crap movie. I refused to see any movie with him for years. Then one day I was flipping through the HBO channels and came across The Town. My first instinct at seeing Ben was to change the channel. But something about whatever scene was playing drew me in, and I watched until the end, and then waited until it came on again to start from the beginning. I think that movie is outstanding, and Ben was so good in it that I lifted the Ben Affleck movie ban. I think that's his best performance (but I haven't seen The Accountant). And since then, I agree with utee94 that he was a good Batman. I liked Batman v. Superman more than most, and thought Justice League was just meh, but not because of any performance issues by Affleck. And he was also great in Argo. And very good in Gone Girl. Not one of my favorite actors, but he's gotten better with age.

I haven't seen his entire catalog, but if I recall he has had some significant personal struggles just as many folks do and whether that has affected his work/career (pretty hard not to) now and then, it wouldn't surprise me but it's also none of my business beyond that other than to wish him well. When he is good, he is quite good.

Haven’t seen a bomb yet I just watched Vice--had never seen it--and I found myself thinking that Bale reminds me of Daniel Day Lewis. He actually becomes whoever he's portraying, and it's not just about the physical transformation.
July 8, 20223 yr Marg Helgenberger…most of her performances have been pretty solid. She always gets work but I have no idea wtf she was doing with her acting in Bad Boys. Also, Paul Rudd in Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers. Just straight up bizarre and yet awesome at the same time. Ummm…yes, it’s a grown Tommy Doyle coming face to face with Michael after all those years BUT wtf…best weirdest acting ever. Starts at the beginning of the clip. I’m mesmerized by it. I can’t not watch it repeatedly. I get Paul Rudd plays Paul Rudd in nearly every movie and I think this was his first role/major role…but dayum.

Dude takes roles seriously as for Ben affleck I think a lot of his hate comes from him being the quientessential pretty joy but his first Batman sucked
July 8, 20223 yr 1 hour ago, Dbeasy said: George Clooney? Best Burn After Reading I think Clooney was much better in Michael Clayton, which is his best performance in my opinion. I did love him in Burn After Reading, along with Pitt, McDormand, Malkovich, Swinton, Jenkins, and Simmons. The entire cast brought their A+ game in that movie.

I wouldn't categorize Monuments Men as his best, but he did all right in that one. Enjoyed the ensemble cast in that one. @closetohumping--funny you tag Ben Affleck as a pretty boy; handsome in his prime sure, but I wouldn't call him 'pretty' even when younger-- that term seems more applicable to a young Brad Pitt type. Jon Cusack--Best: Grosse Point Blank? Runaway Jury? Being John Malkovich?

July 8, 20223 yr Clooney was great in Michael Clayton. I can’t watch Up in the Air because I used to fly over a hundred thousand miles a year on American for about fifteen years and the whole movie just makes me nauseous now.

July 9, 20223 yr I showed my gf clips of PSH playing Gust and another as Capote. Didn't tell her it was the same actor beforehand. She couldn't believe it.
July 9, 20223 yr Tough to find a bad role for PSH but maybeArt Howe in Moneyballor the Sooner in Twister
July 9, 20223 yr Robin Williams Best: The Genie in Aladdin or John Keating in Dead Poet's Society Worst: The robot in Bicentennial Man
July 9, 20223 yr Probably not his best but most likely PSH’s favorite role was where he got to plow Marisa Tomei doggystyle.
July 9, 20223 yr Tough to find a bad role for PSH but maybeArt Howe in Moneyballor the Sooner in TwisterI don't think he was bad in Twister, it was just a small, forgettable part. Was having a conversation with a friend about Jack Black movies a while back and she said something about him being in Twister. After a few minutes of questions, turns out she was thinking of PSH's character.

Ripley was Damon's best performance by far IMO...he was incredible and he should have been nominated for an Oscar over Jude Law. Ripley is one of my top ten movies, primarily based on his performance. Eastwood has made many great movies, but he has no acting range whatsoever.
