You really like starting threads, don't you.  The 1st 7 threads are your's.  Well, I'd say George Clooney is pretty overrated.  He's good, but doesn't really stand out in my mind.  For an actress, Sandra Bullock.  She was good in Crash, but in everything else she's just loud and obnoxious.

Didn't you just start this thread?

Stanton do you ever start positive threads?  Just curious, but you seem to be a fountain of negativity.

Carrot Top

I know I'm going to be hated for this but I have to say it, Johnny Depp. He was great in Pirates of the carribean and the sequel looks ok but other than those two movies all of his other movies are either boring or just barely above average, and his acting wasn't anything special in those other movies either.

You really made my point for me Tony.  Look at the movies you listed (except enemy at the gates) and those are all movies that were not big hits outside of their genres.  The average movie goer would not be able to pick Ron Perlman out of a crowd.  He is not well known and probably never will be.

Hellboy is one of my favourite movies from the past few years

I never knew he had so many cartoon voice roles as not as many film roles. Kinda surprised me actually. Those three films I listed were only on the top of my head.

Jake Gyllenhaal..way overrated.  His acting skill is average.

Genius actorTigerclaw is pretty much on the ball; the only great role I seen him play was in Donnie Darko, the rest was just average work that he done.

He was brilliant in Jarhead

You're right about the first part, being cast for a movie that size doesn't necessary mean that he is good, but you made my point on your second one alot of girls between 13-15 really thinks he's good

ron perlman was also in a french film the city of lost children.  after beauty and the beast this was the film that I recall most that he was in.  also in the name of the rose, which I like.

i dont think that mr pitt and mr depp are over rated in that they are versatile and can play many rolls convincinly.  mr. pitt in spy games and then contrast his roll in snatch.  a yank pulling off a total incoherent gypsy.
