Talking Actors and Actresses You Really Hate

In conversations with various members (particularly Kevb), it has struck me that we all have actors and actresses that we really can't stand. Some might irritate us so much that we actually refuse to watch any films in which they star.

My main hates are:

Actresses...
Julia Roberts
Catherine Zeta Jones

Actors...
Mel Gibson
Kiefer Sutherland

I also really dislike Russell Crowe in anything other than Gladiator. I tolerated him in L.A. Confidential as it's such a good film but it would have been even better if he wasn't in it.

There are others I hate but that'll do for now

So who do you hate?

I know just what you mean, almost put him down myself. Only the fact that BHD was just such mindlessly fun entertainment stopped me.

I'm surprised the landmine sequence hasn't become everyone's subwoofer demo of choice

Can't believe I forgot about him actually. That's probably because he hasn't made much recently.

Julia Stiles bugs the hell out of me, to the point where I seriously considered walking out of "The Bourne Identity", purely because she was in it.

Potential minor spoilers for "Training Day" follow:

Equally, I try to avoid seeing Ethan Hawke in anything, only making an exception for "Training Day", because he takes quite a pummelling in it during that bathtub interrogation scene and the fight with Denzel Washington.

Plus, he's a crap novelist....

Hi,

Well my list of talentless w*n*ers, include any or all of the following:

Male:
Tom Green, Rob Schneider and/or Adam Sandler - self-explanatory, I would have thought! All a bunch of untalented, overpaid, and grossly unfunny actors, who get paid far more than their worth! And they're all ugly as well!!!

Female:
Rosie Perez - that voice!!!! Would make the deaf run screaming!
Angelina Jolie - beautiful, but talentless!

They're probably others as well, but I can't think too well at the moment, due to my stinking cold!

Pooch

Was good in The Sixth Sense but has been awful since.

That reminds me of another insanely annoying US 'comedian'... Martin Short.
