During a discussion of favorite films and television shows, it quickly became apparent that most people have an actor or actress who is a complete turn-off, and they can't stand any film in which they are featured.
For me, I admit to having more than one. Kevin Costner is such a horrible "actor" that I don't even want to be in the same building where one of his films is being shown. If he is ever in a film with Meryl Streep, I will have to bomb the theater (before any paying customers arrive) to prevent the possibility...
Do any of our other correspondents have similar reactions to famous thespians?
I have a pretty dim view of everyone in the media. People in media, by definition want to play up to the camera. That makes them do absolutely idiotic things, to try and fit in with the popular view.
The worst one lately, was Taylor Swift, where because of the woke crowd of left-wing idiots, produced a "documentary" saying how horribly oppressed she was as a women.
Here she is, having the world handed to her on a silver platter by age 17, and at 31 is worth $360 Million dollars, and having grown up in a upper middle class family, father a stock broker, and mother a mutual fund manager..... and then she wants to make a movie showing how oppressed she is because women earn less than men, and whatnot......
It's insane at every level.
Just like Colin kaepernick being paid $130 Million, to throw a ball in the air, saying he's completely oppressed.
So my view of all hollywood is really low. Honestly, they are all moronic fools.
Whether they are good actors or not, doesn't matter. The only three actors have real respect for, is Denzel Washington, who asked in an interview about racism said, hard work wins, and that's why he's achieved success in life. Morgan Freidman who said that anyone can achieve the American dream, and race has nothing to do with it, and he and other like him are proof.
And lastly, Anthony Hopkins who said this...
"People ask me questions about present situations in life, and I say, 'I don't know, I'm just an actor. I don't have any opinions. Actors are pretty stupid. My opinion is not worth anything. There's no controversy for me, so don't engage me in it, because I'm not going to participate.'"
It's funny how all the non-woke non-left-wing actors, are all the best actors in Hollywood.
