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

[-] icerunner_origin@startrek.website 14 points 2 months ago

Gervais was insufferable right back to his days on The 11 O'Clock Show. I regard The Office as an anomaly.

[-] Gorb@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago

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.

[-] icerunner_origin@startrek.website 5 points 2 months ago

Anything I've seen where they involve Karl just comes across as playground bullying, but done by balding, middle-aged men.

[-] Gorb@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

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

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

[-] MaoTheLawn@hexbear.net 11 points 2 months ago

yeah but Jason Momoa only has acting chops for Aquaman really

[-] buckykat@hexbear.net 11 points 2 months ago

Jason Momoa was good in Stargate Atlantis

[-] CliffordBigRedDog@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago

I liked Momoa in Gambo

i-think-that

[-] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago

Now. He was always annoying

[-] MaoTheLawn@hexbear.net 31 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

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.

[-] SeekTheDeletion@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

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

[-] bortsampson@hexbear.net 12 points 2 months ago

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.

[-] frazorth@feddit.uk 9 points 2 months ago

I enjoyed School of Rock.

That was a while ago now though.

[-] Grandpa_garbagio@hexbear.net 11 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

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

[-] Ossay@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

also gets blown up by bruce willis in the jackal remake

[-] SeekTheDeletion@hexbear.net 11 points 2 months ago

what are you talking about it's really hard to make a little trumpet with your hands and go diddley-diddley-dooooo
