Do you?

I kinda do.

not for thier actual acting abilities, but for the ability to have absolutely no idea what emotions to put with what emphasis.

Some of my favorites include the old guy in the D-Snore Commercial, The couple in the Posture Pedic Mattress commercial, all the differnet actors in the lawyer commericals for the sleazy, "get waht you deserve" lawyers

I just watched "Bram Stoker's Dracula" the other night, and poor Keaunu looked like he was positively in pain. Every time he had to open his mouth and speak in an affected Gentleman's English accident I SWEAR he started sweating like a man on a bus about to explode. Awful, awful, awful performance.

But no performance I've ever seen is as bad as Peter Fonda's in (get this) "Thomas and the Magic Railroad". Anyone with kids see this thing? While Alec Baldwin does his damndest to project whimsy and fun, Fonda looks like he just woke up from 300 years of cryogenic freezing. I have a bet with someone that the director told Peter that all these scenes were rehearsals for the camerman, because nothing else can explain the utter lack of ANYTHING resembling a performance here. And you thought he was bad in "Easy Rider".

Maybe he was just trying ot stop himself from saying

"whoa"

or

"dude"

in that odd style he has....

Cool in the Matrix, though
