Title: actors who take themselves too seriously
Post by: Pubrick on July 14, 2005, 02:34:54 AM
in other words, not so much overrated actors, but actors who overrate themselves. or however u interpret it..

andy garcia
sean penn
CHRIS TUCKER
john travolta
sam jackson
val kilmer
halle berry
emilio estevez

andy garcia especially gives me the impression he thinks  he's "one of the greatest" when really he should just be grateful soderbergh remembered he existed.

Sean Penn and Chris Tucker are good choices for the top of the list. Followed by my own addition of Sean Astin.

I'd say Halle Berry is TEMPORARILY exempted for going to the Razzies.

Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas strike me as people who take themselves too seriously.

My God is he pompous! I caught an episode of Celebrity Poker with him on there and beside being a horrible poker player, he wouldn't shut up. At all. Talking over everyone else and trying to reason away his horrible gamesmanship.

:yabbse-thumbup: Good choice on him.

Tobey Maguire and Jake Gylenhal...one of them. Everytime I see these assholes they act like they are too cool for school, like they went to super high school grades 13 on instead of college. Anyone else get these vibes from these guys?

Colin Farrel for sure... he also tries too hard to be the rebel, laid back, badass...

Paris Hilton... but she cant even be taken as a serious person
