of our generation? I can't think of anything of his that I really liked. American Psycho, Harsh Times and Rescue Dawn all are horrible. I just tried to watch Rescue Dawn and he was so bad I fell asleep at 8:00 in the evening.

He is just a bad over actor.

Have you seen Batman Begins, Equilibrium, Prestige, Machinist, or 3:10 to Yuma?

How about the action movie Reign of Fire?

I saw Batman Begins and I thought that was a good story and I am excited for the Dark Knight. I haven't seen those other movies so I will need to rent them.

The movies I have seen of his he is the Ron Wolfley of Acting. Must not be my cup of tea.

Christian Bale is one of the best.

And no one can dethrone Ben Affleck as the worst major leading actor. He's Ed Wood bad.

Christian Bale sucks.

I don't actually believe that; I just felt bad for Scott being alone in the matter.

I had to google Christian Bale to see his pic cuz I didnt know who he was or maybe I did but would only recognize him.. After seeing the pic, I still dont know who he is.. Why do I stumble in this forum sometimes and get caught up in a thread??? :bang:

You suck!!

How dare you! Didn't you read the cliquerulesofassocaition documentation?

Gah!

Yep.

That is rule #4.

Don't help out anyone outside of the clique, if it makes you look like an ass in the process.

Ah, but you were forgetting rule #27 of the cliquerulesofassociation (and I spell it right, DONALD)...

A non-member may be temporarily added to the clique for the purpose of being funny, if the non-member meets the following criteria:

a) Said non-member has never offended any member of the clique

and

b) Linderbee says it's okay



You two need to brush up on your rules.

You are not more powerful than the clique. How dare you?

I didn't write the rules. I just follow 'em.

Pfft. It has your name it in. A little vain are we?

Besides, the rest of us KNOW how to follow the rules, instead of creating their own to make up for shortcomings....

Keanu Reeves.

Keanu Reeves was the title holder until Affleck supplanted with a string of about three or four awful perfomances.

Besides, Keanu was credible in the Matrix. That gets him a pass in my book. Affleck was just less annoying in Good Will Hunting, and has nothing to fall back on.

I will say this: Affleck just standing in front of a camera talking is interesting. He's a smart, funny guy. He loses all appeal when he starts reading someone else's lines.
