Rick moranis?
Joe Cazale! Only five movies, but all five awarded nominees for Oscar Best Picture!
Cory Chase
Charles Bronson
Jessica Chastain
Tim Curry.
And before you tell me he was in some notoriously shit movies, no they weren’t, Tim Curry was in those movies, so they’re great movies.
I love that man.
This should have won him a Oscar (BAFTA?)
That episode of Lexx was good too
LOL, yup, this.
Prime example: Oscar (1991)
It got bad reviews (I loved it) but Curry’s performance was amazing.
James Dean. Credited in only 3 films (appeared in a few more as an extra):
- East of Eden
- Rebel Without a Cause
- Giant
All 3 are above average on IMDb (> 7).
Viggo Mortensen
If only he skipped Daylight.
Gene Hackman had a pretty good run
All my life, I would always watch ANY movie that Gene Hackman was in. I never saw him give a bad performance.
The Conversation is one of the best movies I’ve ever seen. The feeling you get from that movie is so strange and I love it.
Probably Daniel Day Lewis. He’s extremely picky about what he’s in.
Nine was poorly reviewed by critics and audiences.
But otherwise his choices have been solid.
Gene Wilder was the first that came to my mind.
Then Richard Pryor.
THE Harold Zoid!
I’m not a huge fan of Tom Cruise and also never watched the MI franchise, but otherwise he knows how to pick good scripts… Last Samurai, Vanilla Sky, Tropic Thunder, Minority Report, Top Gun, Rain man, Edge of Tomorrow, The Firm. There are still a bunch I never saw so there may be some rotten tomatoes in the basket
A Few Good Men has my favourite Tom Cruise roll
He DOES have some bad movies, but not many. I really don’t like the guy either, but I like a lot of his movies. You forgot Oblivion and Jerry Maguire for instance.
His Scientology bullshit creeps me out to the max, but i have to admit that i will watch any movie he makes, because they are always good, and sometimes great.
Do yourself a favor, and watch the MI series. They are nonsensical but really fun, with some of the best action sequences ever filmed, and he does the stunts himself. They also get better as the series comtinues.
I’d also add Eyes Wide Shut
Agree he had a very high hit rate, and personal life aside, I enjoy most of his movies.
But MI:2 and MI:3 are mediocre at best, and Knight and Day and Rock of Ages were massive flops (I haven’t seen either, but i they look horrible). Cocktail earned him a razzie nomination.
Eyes Wide Shut. What a piece of crap.
Don’t forget The Mummy remake, it was so bad they cancelled the Dark Universe because of it.
““Kurtzman called the experience “brutal” and described The Mummy as “probably the biggest failure” of his life.””
Ah, I’ve even seen that one! Good call
Knight and Day is 100% forgettable straight to streaming crap.
But Rock of Ages was as good as it could’ve been
He was kind of amazing in Rock of Ages. That was a unique character in his catalogue, I’ve never seen him play a role anything like it.
Im also a big fan of Les Grossman.
Hollywood lore on YouTube hasn’t done a video on him yet.
I was going to say “OJ Simpson”, knowing he was in The Naked Gun. I figured he got the part because of his notority as a football player, and figured it was his only film.
Turns out he’s been acting since at least the mid 70s. He’s been in lile 15 movies. Which is kind of weird, knowing what he did later.
So, I guess I can’t say O.J Simpson…
He guest starred in an episode of a children’s show “Adventures in Wonderland”. The episode never aired because of the whole murder incident. So the episode was filmed so close to the time of the murder, it didn’t make it to air. Did he know he was going to commit murder while he was acting in a children’s show?
Were they bad, though?
Yes
Bill Cosby and OJ Simpson … how can you go wrong!?
What do you mean? They were both acquitted of their crimes.
I’ve never heard of any of them besides the naked gun movies.
So probably.
nvm
Bela Lugosi
I heard from Bauhaus that he’s dead.
Undead! Undead! Undead!

Plan 9 from Outer Space!
Dubbed the worst film ever made. To be fair to Bela Lugosi, he had no choice in the matter as he appeared in the film posthumously.
Dubbed the worst film ever made.
hey no fair. being tricked as an art student into watching that is a rite of passage
