^ you both are sorta wrong.

She became very famous early on for her teenage and innocent roles such as Princess Diaries.

But she couldn't land any decent adults roles until after she did Havoc and got naked.

Agree.
I don't think I've ever once laughed at him. Unless its because its sad how terrible he is.
I think he is seriously better in (serious) roles. His dumb faces and retarded "funny" movies are just pure trash.

I admit to laughing my ass off pretty good when he was being born from a Rhino though.

The best thing about washed up actresses is the nude scenes they do to save their careers.

Mischa Barton
Anne Hathaway
Emmy Rossum

The list goes on forever... thankfully 🙂

so, she became successful and acceptable after she did the naked.

I love how you try to distort reality into your own little world, no matter what subject you are discussing.

point is--no one but 10 year-old girls knew who the fuck she was with princess diaries and all that shit. She was effectively unknown until after Havok.

Further--she is far, far from washed-up. 😀

I think he is great in his dramatic roles...but if you can't appreciate Dumb & Dumber, then I literally want nothing to do with you, sir.

lol if anything the dude is moving up in Hollywood

maybe you could make an argument for his acting getting worse but you can't make an argument for his popularity or appearances in movies declining

Anne Hathaway has never been considered washed up. 🙄

and she's done tons of nude scenes throughout her career, so unless John can somehow prove she was washing up multiple times I think he was a bit off on her

Louis Gossett Jr.

Dude won an Oscar for Officer and a Gentleman. Won a couple of Golden Globes and an Emmy...

Then did a bunch of Iron Eagle sequels and pretty much disappeared. I liked him in Diggstown, Toy Soldiers and Enemy Mine but man... other than that, talk about down in flames.





Whoever said Ryan Reynolds isn't paying much attention. He's in everything and his movies are killing it. Every character is basically some variant of Van Wilder but he's anything but washed up. If anything he's on the rise.

Tom Hanks.

He started well, in the 80's, and by the 90's he was the guy.

Remember him helplessly walking out into the cold in Philadelphia, or transforming himself in castaway (whether you loved it or hated it), or those shattering scenes in Saving Private Ryan?

That guy would be ashamed of the hack that phones in roles nowadays.

What was more memorable in "The DaVinci Code" - his acting or his hair?
 
Marisa Tomei
I don't remember her doing nude scenes until more recent, to bad back in the day she was hottie.

Disagree...

He had that small time frame where he made some good movies.

Liar Lair, Truman Show, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, Bruce Almighty.

Those were all pretty decent movies and he made a few others that might have been good.

But now he is washed up for sure making creepy videos about Emma Stone and such...

Can you list some good movies he's done? I haven't seen any listed yet.
