We've all sat through many movies that we've deemed a total waste of time. For guys, it's usually when your better half drags you to a hideous chick-flick. For the gals, it's usually having to sit thru gangster movies on Turner Classic Movies with hubby.
But one thing both men and women agree on is that Hollywood has a knack of putting at least one actor in every movie that is horribly miscast! Here at the Pissant Univeristy for Knowledge & Entertainment Studies (PUKES) we've compiled the top 7 miscast thesbians in Hollywood history!
Top 7 Movie Miscasts
7. Will Smith as James West in Wild, Wild West
I only lasted 20 minutes because of this royal screwup.
6. Mark Hammill as Luke Skywalker in Star Wars
Way too wimpy and annoying
5. Denise Richards as Christmas Jones in 007's The World is not Enough
Nuclear scientist? She ruined the movie
4. Colin Ferrell as Alexander in ALexander
Any military leader that looked like such a wuss would have been murdered by his generals in a nanosecond.
3. Ali McGraw as some chick in Love Story
As exciting as peeling paint
2. Brad Pitt as some dude in the Fight Club
About as believable being a toughie as I am being a ballerina
1. John Wayne as Ghengis Khan in The Conqueror
A cowboy Chinaman? Yikes. Though I did enjoy it for some reason.
LOLOLOLOL! I agree with your list, too!
Denise Richards
It's still a tradition in my family to make that "Hooooo-Hoooo" sound out of wrapping paper cardboard tubes. My wife thought I was nuts when I first did it, I thought everyone did.
Sing it with me :"You are worthress, Arec Bardwin"
LOLOL! Good list!
Did you forget Julia Roberts as a cranky, short-haired Tinkerbell in "Hook"?
Anything with Nicholas Cage, I consider a snoozer!
His acting capabilities...well, I take that back, he is NOT capable of acting..period.
I liked The Rock..but only because of big bad Sean! yum for an old man!
MM
Yes, truly not believable. Not even slightly believable. I watched and pretended it was not the real Jack Ryan. And tried to enjoy the rest of it...
Tom Cruise in Collateral. Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible. Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible II. Ugh. (Sense a trend here?... LOL)
John Travolta in Swordfish, which I only agreed to watch against my better judgement.
John Travolta in the Punisher, though it was fun watching his character get punished...
ROTFL...I couldn't have said it better myself!!! What a giant puddin'!
Nicolas Cage,Adam Beach, and Christian Slater in Windtalkers.
Plus anything with Denise Richards.
I have to admit, I liked Brad Pitt as the alter-ego Tyler Derdan (sp).
We agree on #1 !
Cate Blanchett is kinda like that for me. So FEMININE and DRAMATIC and ROYAL and SOFT like she might pass out if she broke a nail. eesh. Get over yerself.......
They PC'd the Justice League years ago :(
dang. Well THAT one certainly has.
This is an old one. Kirk Douglas as General George S. Patton in "Is Paris Burning?" Douglas did not look like General Patton nor did he act like General Patton would be expected to act. He played, in effect, Kirk Douglas. Come to think of it, Kirk Douglas has always played Kirk Douglas in every role he ever had.
