For example, I don’t like Will Ferrell in his typical roles. Oh they just drive me batty.

But. I do love Stranger Than Fiction. It’s such a cozy movie.

    The first one that comes to mind is Jared Leto. Can’t stand him in any role but I will tolerate him in Requiem for a Dream. And even then I’ve only seen that movie once which is more than enough.

      I don’t like him because he is the dictionary definition of a method actor. Robert Pattinson was too polite but got close,

      “I always say about people who do method acting, you only ever see people do the method when they’re playing an a–holes. You never see someone being lovely to everyone while they’re really deep in character.”

      I highly recommend The Little Things where he did a great job even though I hate him too. He was good enough to break through my disgust for him as a person and just be disgusted purely by the character he portrayed.
