Poll Suggestion: IMDb Poll Board Most Overrated Actor

@jaf_ismael​ 

Hayden Christensen, Paris Hilton, Sofia Coppola - she rather should stay director. She isn't exactly a Clint Eastwood, who can do both.

Nobody rates Hilton highly. Nor does anyone rate Coppola highly as an actress.

@NYVKE​ 

True.

@Breumaster​ 

But they also don't do about

Jaden Smith

Megan Fox

Ice Cube

and Danny Trejo

@Breumaster​ 

Agreed.

Jaden Smith is a nepo baby.

Megan Fox and Ice Cube especially are widely regarded as terrible.

Trejo has a fanbase in certain types of similar roles in similar films. Adam Sandler / The Rock group. (Ryan Reynolds, Jennifer Aniston, Kaley Cuoco are also in that group.)

@NYVKE​ 

Dakota Johnson

Cara Delevigne

Jason Statham

Orlando Bloom

Who the f*ck is

Colin Egglesfield?

Bella Thorn?

Dakota Johnson and Cara Delavigne aren't highly rated either.Statham has his niche - like The Rock.

@NYVKE​ 

Statham is no good actor, more like a cool dude, not more.

He always plays the same role in different movies. How boring is that?

But people love him and go to the films. Good for him. Bad for taste.

@NYVKE​ 

Btw.: 

Did you hear anything of Colin Egglesfield and Bella Thorn?

I watch a bunch of movies each week. None of them stuck to my mind.

But they are also on the list. Why?

@NYVKE​ 

I don't know any movie where I'd say Orlando Bloom is a good actor, not even at the Lord of the Rings trilogy. He was just good, because the other cast carried him. Any other movie: Nope! But he was the hot sh*t for a long time after the LOTR-trilogy. 

@Breumaster​ 

Bella Thorne - mostly teen / YA films and shows. Very pretty. Popular among younger viewersThe other guy, no idea.

It seems Jaf has added more than three picks himself. I'm not sure this counts as a poll board suggestion anymore.

@Jessica​ 

Hm ... as long as it says "Poll Suggestion: ..." in the title, for me it is a poll suggestion,

@Jessica​ 

And it's tagged as idea.

@Breumaster​ 

Of course it's a poll suggestion, but unless Jaf sticks to 3 picks per user (including himself) it's not a "poll board" suggestion.

@Jessica​ 

It's also a little annoying to figure out who would be considered as a good actor, but isn't. There are no clear criteria about like starmeter, rating of their movies, etc. Momoa e.g. isn't considered to be a good actor, but he is ranked at position 65 over all by starmeter. Ruby thinks he shouldn't  be on the list, but on which clear criteria? Hearsay? Of whom? Yellowpress? Celebrity portals? I think that idea isn't sophisticated at all. I think there should first be some more criteria set to decide, if an actor is worth yenough to be on the list or generally fails for the list. Something seizable. chit chat talk doesn't do in my opinion.

There are not so many clear candidates who everybody would agree, like e.g. Schwarzenegger, Statham, Reeves or Chalamet. Who is the better actor - Schwarzenegger or Momoa? Both are very popular. At all - there is nothing really seizable on that idea. And Who the f*ck is Egglesfield? I don't even know him. Never seen him. ;D

P.S.:Maybe Awards would make it measurable. But which awards? Rotten Tomatoes, or the Bafta, or the Golden Globes? That's a huge difference for me. Only Academy receipients? Ok, I'm on board. But then the list wouldn't fit at all.

@Breumaster

That has got to be one of the laziest picks ever. How is Steven Segal OVERrated? He has 11 nominations and 1 win (Most of them are for worst Acting Razzies and ​Stinker Awards). He has only two movies with the highest rating of 6.5. He has become one of the most infamously LAZY actors of his generation this past decade. 

Who do you think is lauding him? He's hated both by both critics and audiences.

This is truth.Seagal is the poster boy for terrible actor and terrible films.

@Tsarstepan​ 

A core of action-fans without brains who admire him.

Under Siege: 101,931 raters

Under Siege 2: 53,047 raters

Nico 36,897 raters

Hard to Kill: 34, 396 raters

Maybe his last fans are the hard core - about 2,000-3,000 dudes. After all he made 58 movies that were released and he also was widely overrated at the beginning of his career. I wonder why. If wanted, he can be kicked off the list. I don't need him. ;)

I agree, I don't know how he got two Oscar nominations.

@jaf_ismael​ It's 3 now ;)

Is Momoa actually rated? Lol. I didn't know that anyone actually considered him to be a good actor. 

added

done.

@NYVKE​ I agree about Hillary Swank.
