name a bigger miscast in the history of television & film
I'm sick of pretending Keanu can act.
>>204812666not even him pretends that
>>204812609
>>204812609>>204812666But he's so wholesome chungus
>>204812609Sophia Coppola in Godfather IIII'm aware it wasn't her fault
>>204813032Buscemi is based as Blundetto. He absolutely can sell it. He looks like a scumbag. He doesn't need to be some big hulking dude to be dangerous.
>>204812609Easy
>>204812609Shut up whore he was great in Dracula. And so were Winona Ryder's tits.
>>204812609keanu's shit accent makes it all the more wholesome because english people are terrible
>>204813032>>204813154Look at this grinning psychopath. Fucking animal. I can't even say his name.
>>204812609Winona in the same movie lol...what the fuck was Coppola thinking???
>>204813378Winona WAS the producer and wanted to fuck Keanu
>>204813825>>204813378https://youtu.be/DWQW-hyxPUQ?t=1402>"this isnt the best script but it's the one Winona Ryder wants to do"
>>204813032>Blundetto is described as an animal>they cast a human
>>204812609Tom Cruise as Jack Reacher.I like Tom, but Jack Reacher is supposed to be 6'5 naturally muscular machine.
>>204813155>let’s cast this comic book character who is known for his iconic deep booming voice, hulking muscles, and classy traditional attitude with an actor that is iconic for joking around and being skinny. Who let this happen
>>204813032He was far more miscast in Boardwalk Empire
>>204812609Michael Douglas in Black Rain. Dude looked ridiculous.
>>204812609Arnold in Total Recall
>>204814907That take on the character is only present in the cartoons.
>>204814989>here's that badass I was telling you about
>>204812666but he's awesome
>>204812609Raceswaps?
>>204812609Glad he was a minor role but yeah it was awkward. Thankfully, everyone else put the team on they back
>>204812609The movie was so good and his weird bumbling acting ruined it for me.
>>204815056>'We need an actor with gravitas'>sir, the only actor to show was Orlando Bloom>meh, fuck it
>>204815863I'm gonna use AI to 'correct/improve' shit like this. Gonna insert young Johnny Depp in Keanu's place
>>204812609DiCaprio in this movie
>>204814766Alan looks the part of Reacher, shame S2 sucked ass.
>>204816023he tries so hard le acting
>>204813032Whatever happened there?
>>204812609my dude, he the most bodacious 18th century accent ever
>>204812609Zendaya in Dune
>>204816175Agreed.
>>204813093Winona supposed to be in that but Depp convinced her to be in Edward Scissorhands which turned out to be a better movie.
>>204817868/thread
>>204812609>actor can't act his way out of a wet paper bag, yet has been in several kinosKeanu Reeves is a perfect example of this phenomenon.>Point Break>The Matrix>The Devil's Advocate
>>204815056One of the weakest points of the movie
>>204817868Chud take.
>>204818702I also liked him as constantine
>>204814961He wasn't even really based on Nucky Johnson, you fucking idiot. He cannot be "miscast', he was perfect for the character Tim Van Patten and co created for him to play
>>204818757I forgot about that movie. A friend dragged me to it back when it was in theaters. Decent action flick, can't remember shit other than he had some funky guns.
>keanu is le bad in dracula!!!1!one!I don't care
>>204812666truly some devilish deceiving trips>>204812609i'd rather blame coppola there if someone's to blamethis movie is overrated by faggots just saying mostly cause it's stylish afbesides it was literally the hollywood circlejerk at the time and he dated his daughterhe was in so many movies he worked with anyone but you faggots probably haven't watched any of thathe gained and earned all the success and respect he hasyours is mostly envy or something i guess
>>204818798>he was perfect for the character Tim Van Patten and co created for him to playNo, he wasn't. He has no gravitas or natural authority, that's why he typically plays loser scumbag characters, eg. Fargo.
>>204818702>Hollywood has le talentgimme a breakanyone can act
>>204812609Not even close to being the worst in cinema history, OP.
>>204820171If more people would actually watch this movie, they'd realize he actually was a pretty good choice for the role.Who would have done it better-- Gregory Peck? James Stewart?
>>204812609Chris Rock in Fargo.>>204814961You know who really WASN'T miscast in BE? The guy who played young Nucky.
>>204812609I honestly thought they were siblings and they had no chemistry whatsoever. Henry Cavill should've played the leading man. Cara was fine but her ex Ashley Benson would've been a better choice.
>>204820530>tfw Cara will never be your cute naughty sister
>>204820934She's a meth head anon and a hardcore lesbian apparently
>>204821144no way ahah
>>204813032God rest his soul.
Don't even try to argue this one
>>204814907>(((Who))) let this happen>Jesse Eisenbergyou know.
>>204821460>It was Biden killed the punk rock
>>204815079Suggest an alternative, then.
>>204817868patrician take. making audiences watch her is borderline an act of violence.
>>204815100The games too. It's become synonymous with Lex.
>>204821564What the FUCK were they thinking? He looks nothing like the book description. >>204812609Pic related
>>204820171why'd you post an ancient Chinese watercolor of Genghis Khan?
>>204821647>>204821460>>204813155sensing a bit of a pattern here
>>204821409>cousin...
>>204816023diaz was much worse
>>204817868Her father is 100x worse
Ethan Hawke is just not a very good actor, and this becomes even more obvious when he spends all his screen time with Denzel who fucking killed it in this movie.
>>204814074makes sense because the script was retarded bullshit>nooo dracula is a sad victim we are the monsters he just wants to love>ignore that he fed a baby to his wives earlier
>>204812609Zendaya in anything she's in
>>204812609That ugly chick in the invisible man remake from a few years back
>>204820530remember when /tv/ caught Dane Dehaan posting here and he was acting like a real victim and said cavill was talentless or something
>>204814907>>204813155>He's a billionaire>Let's cast the guy that played famous billionaire ZuckerbergWarner bros is full of morons. Snyder is a brainlet.
>>204821591it's basically amplified because all the other watchmen had great casting
>>204822406think that was his wife's idea
>>204819890>No, he wasn't.His character in BWE was literally created for him. Ergo, it is not possible for him to have been miscast
>>204822296To Ethan Hawk's credit, most actors would have a tough time matching Denzel.
>>204812609Wrong, his hammy acting elevated the film beyond measure.You cannot have good without bad, hot without cold, salt without pepper.
>>204822296I saw Ethan Hawke at the Chatsworth courthouse once. This cholo Mexican dude next to me started pointing at him and yelling “THATS THE TRAINING DAY GUY, BRO, THAT IS THE DUDE FROM TRAINING DAY HAHA”. Ethan Hawke just looked over at us and gave a thumbs up and then tried to hide in the corner with his very jewish looking lawyer. Seemed like an okay guy but obviously stressed out. Honestly all I wanted to do was get the fuck out of court.
>>204822597fuck off
>>204815712He has three good credits where he's plausible: that, River's Edge, and Point Break. Everything else he's just a joke, either due to his shitty performance (Dracula) or how gay the material is (John Wick), but even Point Break was widely mocked by Gen X and a satirical musical was made in 2003.I don't understand his success at all. His or Ed Norton's. Norton can kind of act but he's a dorky looking person with all the charisma of leftover mayonnaise.
>>204821564>WALK>WITHOUT>A>RYTHM
>>204822441>the 20-year-old Swede as Laurie Jupiter was perfect casting
>>204822598Why was he there?
>>204822656That seems kind of an excessive response.
>>204812666HE'S LE HECKIN' WHOLESOMERINO ACCORDING TO REDDIT DID YA KNOW
>>204815056That movie had its share of issues (pacing, that dumb "rock to helmet" scene) but replacing Bloom would've done a lot to solve it. Dude isn't a bad actor, but for a "blacksmith turned unexpected leader" role, he brought nothing to it. He sucked energy out of every scene. Random viking guy in that one scene left more of an impression.
>>204818702>>204818757You can argue he has a good agent that knows what to pitch him for, at least.
>>204818702You forgot Bill & Ted.
>>204817721Yeah it's sad when they go young like that
>>204822857You could go with thisYou could go with that
>>204812609mommy, that mans head is in the shape of a peeeenis
>>204813032well, the don johnson look is interesting on him
>>204812609Easdy.Taye Diggs as a venture-capital guy in Set It Up.Not convincing in any way, whatsoever.Made even more unbelievable by Lucy Liu's intelligent businesswoman character falling for him.
>>204814766thisi read all the books years before and i love Tom, but come on.reacher's physical size is a huge part of the books, you can't just drop in someone who's not huge and have it work -- for his mental make-up as well as the way people look at him warily, etc.A 6'5", ~250 lbs grubby loner drifter with a chip on his shoulder is worlds away from a regular-size guy in the mind of literally anyone.
>>204816023DDL carries this movie so fucking hard
>>204822838Yea, Xennial. One of our more clueless macho moron friends had such a boner for point break he made us all watch it like 8 times. He also thought steven segal and van damme were the best actors in the world, and would practice high-kicking (well, as high as his fat ass could go) people's drinks out of their hands when they weren't paying attention to him. He was a total cunt but had childhood friend status so he stuck around. He went out west and talked his way into a six figure job at Quest Communications that he was in no way qualified for as the CEO's personal IT guy. Has a collection of BMW's and an amazing wife who can't stand him either but makes more than he does so she won't leave him. This is the kind of total shithead that comprises the one and only person I have ever met in my life that genuinely liked Point Break.
>>204822296>Ethan Hawke is just not a very good actorSomeone hasn't seen First Reformed.
>>204812666People like Keanu because he's based and likeable, not because of his poor acting abilities.
>>204817747>1905>18th century
>>204812609Bro. He's there for the same reason the vampire trio are there.
>>204822296Denzel steals every scene he's in. I don't think any actor would have done better than Ethan Hawke.
>>204823970this
>>204823030You faggots really need to let go.At this point drinking water is reddit.
>>204816023Cameron Diaz was much worse. DiCaprio at least tries. He just gets mogged by DDL.
this entire cast made for some good contenders
>>204821460I liked him in this role. A lot better than the main guy.
the sleazy porn directors in 8mm being jewish instead of christian
>>204824519still would
>>204813032This was hilarious though.
>>204820420>Chris Rock in Fargo./thread
>>204819454Rerererewatched Devil's Advocate last night. His acting is shit.
>>204812666He was great in Speed and Constantine.
>>204812609He was mocked big time for this, we moved on. Matrix did the trick, then everyone thought he proved sth with John Wick esp after meme economy
>>204812609His best role is in Cyberpunk 2077
>>204815079No way he’s great in that
Dis whole moviehttps://m.imdb.com/title/tt0938283/
>>204812609This fucking manlet, jesus christ
>>204820934>>204821144Didn't she have a threesome with Elon Musk and Amber Heard
>>204823045>but for a "blacksmith turned unexpected leader" roleHe's not, though. That's one of the things butchered by the Theatrical Cut, but that's present in the Director's Cut.He's an ENGINEER, and built siege engines for the French army before settling down with his wife and becoming a blacksmith.Which explains why he's so proficient in defending from a siege, why he's educated, why he can read, and why he knows how to set-up an irrigation system.
>>204827707I haven't watched those movies, but he was great in The Matrix in my opinion.
>>204815712I completely agree with you.
>>204822597Hopkins is a million times as hammy as Reeves and the movie is still shit in everything but looks.
>>204828905yes thank youmovie would have been great with an actual good lead
>>204829305no.
>>204816175season 1 sucked too because the character is a mary sue
>>204812609Winona Ryder in the same movie.The only reason that she got a pass is because of her supple little body and perky tits. She's always been an awful actress.
>>204812609Dracula is the Gary Oldman show, who cares about Keanu Reeves' character? Yea he sucks but does it really matter?
>>204812609I think Anthony Hopkins was pretty crappy as Van Helsing, but at least he clearly had a good time.
