Hot take : Jack Black is devoid of talent and people should just stop talking about him
Well I'm not sure it's that hot here but it certainly is on the mainstream internet
Tenacious D was genuinely good and the little skits they did were funny at the time. He's just been riding that fame for a very long time. Tbh I'm glad he's just a shitlib unlike Gervais who made only 1 good thing and then dive bombed into being an insufferable twat
Gervais was insufferable right back to his days on The 11 O'Clock Show. I regard The Office as an anomaly.
I take it he's always been that smarmy self obsessed athiest weirdo who thinks he's above everyone else? Like the one true enlightened one.
The office really was an anomaly. The podcast with karl pilkington also but the humour entirely came from karl in that anyway and Gervais just served as a laugh track.
Anything I've seen where they involve Karl just comes across as playground bullying, but done by balding, middle-aged men.
Karl is a naturally very funny guy but the bullying was painful. Much preferred when he got his own show tormenting him for laughs wasn't enjoyable to watch
Extras was really good though.
I mean talentless hack would make a good harry dubois it's basically method acting
Lmao
Young Jake Black was good I just feel now in the era of continual media making and consumption he is now self insert "omg Jake Black!!!" instead of willing or being offered to actually play a character which is horrifyingly depressing. In fact Jake Black and Mamoa are examples of actors being reduced into their names the way capitalist media commonly reduces the arts down into the most easily consumable and marketable pieces like slop sold to readily hungry pigs
yeah but Jason Momoa only has acting chops for Aquaman really
Jason Momoa was good in Stargate Atlantis
I liked Momoa in Gambo
Now. He was always annoying
eghhh, he's run his course but he had a few good movies where he acted well, and he can play some fun music. I wouldn't say talentless. He's just on a very cash-grabbing run as the gaming movie guy.
he's very one note, and isn't really an actor but more just plays himself. Once that got old after a couple movies, his career should have ended
He was good as a voice actor in the Metalocalpse movie. Not a fan of him in much else. I can't speak to his talent because he just rubs me the wrong way and it wouldn't be fair.
I enjoyed School of Rock.
That was a while ago now though.
what are you talking about it's really hard to make a little trumpet with your hands and go diddley-diddley-dooooo
He was really good as a supporting character actor in the x files lol
But this was so long ago he's effectively a different person
also gets blown up by bruce willis in the jackal remake
