A group of buddies and I were talking yesterday at a pub (whilst enjoying a nice cold pint) and came across a VERY interesting/challenging topic. We were looking to name an actor, relatively established, that has NEVER been in a bad movie. This is a lot harder than one might think.

Some guidelines to help weed out many answers:

- There's no set "rule" as to what makes an "established" actor, but he would at the very least have to be in at least 3 movies with big enough roles in each.
- A "bad" movie is thus defined as one where it is unarguably horrible, just downright terrible. Movies that are "not so bad, but definitely not good" do not count. It has to be terrible. Examples: Men in Black 2, Cabin Boy, Deep Impact, any Disney movie.
- We are only considering male actors here. Including females opens up too many other issues.

Can you think of anyone?
 
Al Pacino 😀 (I'm sure he's been in many more movies than I've seen him in, but I think his films are great)
 
Well, this is way too subjective. For instance, I didn't think MIB II was a definitively terrible movie. I actually kinda liked it.
 
Ed Norton? I've seen all but two of these

25th Hour (2002) .... Monty Brogan
Red Dragon (2002) .... Will Graham
Frida (2002) .... Nelson Rockefeller
Death to Smoochy (2002) .... Sheldon Mopes/Smoochy the Rhino
Score, The (2001) .... Jack Teller
Keeping the Faith (2000) .... Father Brian Kilkenney Finn
Fight Club (1999) .... Narrator
American History X (1998) .... Derek Vinyard
Rounders (1998) .... Lester 'Worm' Murphy
Everyone Says I Love You (1996) .... Holden Spence
People vs. Larry Flynt, The (1996) .... Alan Isaacman
Primal Fear (1996) .... Aaron Stampler/Roy

Nope. We thought of all these guys.

Denzel - Virtuosity
Spacey - KPAX
Samuel L Jackson - Unbreakable.

All 3 are out.

Yeah, Splash was a bit cheesy but it was still funny...and it was early on for him.

Don't tell me Joe vs. the Volcano was on your top 10... 🙂
