universally disliked actors who keep getting work

[Bryan]

It's a cliche to say at this point, but Shia Labeouf.

Great pick.

[CSW]

First, I genuinely can't think of  movie that i have seen tht I enjoyed, that had Kevin Bacon in.

Second, he seems like kind of a dink.

Third, in most lines of work if you don't do good work, you get fewer/no opportunities to further your career. This tends not to happen in showbiz - hence this thread and hence why I assume in such cases that an agent is involved (I base this of pure assumption and having watched  Entourage. I know there are people that hang out here who work in the biz so please tell me if I am wrong)

Fourth, Kevin Bacon has been doing these super annoying TV ads here in the UK recently for a Mobile Phone company and so he's a the forefront of my annoying celebrity thoughts.

Y'all are cool to like to whoever you want and I didn't mean to start some bad internet stuff the question was offered and I answered.

But yeah, Clarke Duke sucks.

That's okay with me. I don't really have strong feelings about the guy - it had just never really occurred to me to dislike him. I fully support your right to hate things on the internet. It's a universal human right!

I like Kevin Bacon. Some of his early starring movies (the bike messenger one) were cheesy but he seems to have settled into a decent supporting character actor (Mystic River, Apollo 13). I always liked Stir of Echoes which had the bad luck to be released just after the Sixth Sense. Had a lot of similarities but I liked Stir of Echoes a lot  and much more than that other one.

I'd put Jon Favreu on this list and agree that Gerard Butler is on the top.

For the ladies, I think Anne Hathaway (just kidding) Jennifer Aniston will be a perennial on this list.

I liked X-Men First Class...Super...Frost/Nixon...The Woodsman...Mystic River. Those were all in the last decade.

Shia Labeouf might be the ultimate "who wants that?" actor. No one asked for him, no one sees movies because of him, and he will make more money in a year than most of us in a lifetime.

Kevin only had a bit part in it, but Animal House is a pretty good movie.

I feel sorry for Kevin, he lost everything to Madoff. Hence all the shitty roles and ads of late.

Posting for the first time in a year to say that the best thing Clark Duke ever did was a sorta funny web series with Michael Cera.

Clark and Michael - Episode 1

[akaJudge]

Clark Duke, I like him fine.

[Bryan]

Ryan Reynolds! And maybe Tom Cruise.

[fonpr]

George Clooney?

[Bryan]

Yep, you nailed it Fredericks.

[dave from knoxville]

What the hell?

George Clooney?

[daveB from Oakland]

Yep, you nailed it Fredericks.

NOT!!! (Speaking of which, is Mike Myers still trying to make his Keith Moon biopic. I've previously cited Myers as a dude who's burned thru his reseves of public goodwill towards him).

Gerard Butler for sure. Put his face in the dictionary next to "jerk". As Tom said about him on the show, who wants THAT?

I'm not a Kev Bacon-hater, but stuff I've heard about his new teevee show sounds pretty distasteful. Another gross show about serial killers. Side topic: Are serial killers the most over-represented population in entertainment?  I feel like, proportionately speaking, there are a lot more serial killers in movies and TV than in real life. Enough with the serial killers!
