Will Smith — watching him ‘act’ makes me want to take out both my eyes with a plastic spoon.

DeNiro.
Fake tough guy who plays hard men all the time.
Terrible casting him as the Irishman.

You’re aware he’s an actor?
I don’t think he comes across as fake, he’s just acting. He certainly doesn’t try and act tough off-screen.

Clearly not aware and also wrong about playing hard guys all the time.
True. Many different characters from films like Awakenings to Meet The Parents. Even in his gangster roles he’s more street-smart than “tough” I’d say.

Well he was terrible as a 6ft 4 250 pound Irishman.
He talks a lot of shit off screen, like a fake tough guy.

Tracy-Ann Oberman, deeply horrible person. The hypocrisy of her stance on cyber bullying is staggering, nasty piece of works. Might be a great actor, I have literally no idea.

It’s criminal how many roles he’s had down the years. While appreciating film companies want guaranteed box office receipts by utilising big name actors for their vehicles, it does get tiresome seeing someone like Bob and his limited range popping up (again) in something like The Silver Linings Playbook. See also Jennifer Lawrence, Bradley Cooper, Ryan Gosling, Emma Stone, Tom Hanks, Jeremy Renner, Benedict Cumberbatch...(insert other white actors, often with a limited acting range, here)
Ah! Gotcha. He spoke out against the right wing and called Trump an idiot very publicly. Now I get why you don’t like him. You’re rather pro all that from what I recall.
Best leave that one there.

I doubt you understand irony, you don't even understand the ellipsis.

Anytime I see Simon Pegg in anything I want someone else to be playing his character.

I agree about Jack Black. Cringey.
Judi Dench - worshipped beyond all reason because she's a national treasure. She got an Oscar for a two-minute walk-on in Shakespeare In Love, which suggests that Hollywood is similarly blinded by her reputation.

De Niro. You mean he laughs at your hero Trump.
I met Robert De Niro in downtown Chicago at the school my son attended. De Niro owned 50% of the Flashpointe Media Arts Academy which trained people to work in the motion picture industry. De Niro's Tribeca Pictures (or some name like that) needed people trained in media arts. My son learned to be a sound man on a motion picture. He used to be a sound engineer for his band. Kind of wasted his education.
Tribeca Flashpoint College | Illinois Science & Technology Coalition and Institute
The go-to place for sharing and learning about all of the exciting innovations happening in Illinois.

EDIT: My son has since told me he uses some of the knowledge he gained about sound in helping them design the sounds they use in the automotive factory/car assembly plant that he works in today for safety warnings.
