Probably shouldnt be on here cause im sure hes not 'overrated' but plain sucks but ill say him anyways cause he gets too many lead roles... Colin Farrell

George Clooney seems overrated too but atleast hes a player, Farrell is just trash.

Favorite Actress: Natascha McElhone, shes in californication right now but i find her smoking hot, thats why shes my pick, the only movies i seen her in were Solaris, Ronin, and The Truman Show

Favorite Actor(s): Ben Stiller and Christopher Walken... on the more serious side Johnny Depp has to be one of the best and Leo DiCaprio as Resler already said has great movies

there will always be a spot in my heart for 'rollergirl'.

If you liked "rollergirl" you have to check out Heather in
"Killing Me Softly"

I can't say it any better than Mr. Skin:

1. Who do you think is the most over-rated actor/actress ever?

Edward Norton. He's actually great in one of my top-5 films (the 25th hour) BUT, I think he gets far too much credit given: the incredible hulk, the italian job, death to smoochy, keeping the faith, the score. It's not that he's bad - I think he's very good, but overrated nonetheless.

Sounds like you haven't seen many films where he's done his best work:
  • Fight Club
  • American History X ~ great role
  • Rounders
  • Primal Fear
Check those out and get back to me :toast:

Easily one of my favorite actors.

Agreed. If Edward Norton is in it, I'm going to watch it.

He was unreal in Primal Fear. Loved him in the other three you
mentioned too.

Keanu Reeves True Tragic Story

<form name="" action="http://awakeningtimes.com/keanu-reeves-true-tragic-story/#wpcf7-f1377-p1993-o1" method="post" class="wpcf7-form" novalidate="novalidate" style="border: 0px; padding: 0px; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0980392); margin: 0px; outline: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; position: relative;">In 1999, Keanu Reeves became most famous for his role in the groundbreaking science fiction film, The Matrix. It earned an impressive $463.5 million at the box office and was nominated for and won four Academy Awards. The Matrix is a happy story in a lot of ways, but the life of its star wasn’t always.

Now 50 years old, Keanu’s life has been full of more tragedy than you would expect from a movie star. Despite each setback, he’s kept pushing forward. It’s helped develop himself into the awesome person that he is on and off the screen.

At the age of three, his father left their family. They stayed in touch for a few years, but after the divorce and moving from city to city, they fell out of contact. Keanu attended four different high schools and struggled with dyslexia, making his education more challenging than it is for most. Eventually he left high school without earning a diploma, though through sheer will, he is an avid reader now.

At the age of 23, his closest friend River Phoenix died of a drug overdose. During a Reddit AMA last year, Keanu said:“He was a remarkable human person and actor. We got along very well, and I miss him. I think of him often.”

In 1998, Keanu met Jennifer Syme. The two fell instantly in love and by 1999, Jennifer was pregnant with their daughter. Sadly, after eight months, their child was born stillborn. They were devastated by her death and it eventually ended their relationship. 18 months later, Syme would die in a car accident.
In 2006, Reeves told Parade Magazine,
“Grief changes shape, but it never ends.”

It’s a lesson that we’ll all likely learn.

Even with those incredible tragedies, Reeves would push on. He’s starred in a variety of blockbusters and has become a wealthy man, but the pain of his losses has changed how he thinks about money. He’s well known in Hollywood for being among the more charitable actors. After the successes of The Matrix and its sequels, Reeves gave $80 million of his $114 million earnings to the special effects and makeup staff of the films. He also took pay cuts on the films The Replacements and The Devil’s Advocates so stars like Gene Hackman and Al Pacino would agree to be in the film while keeping casting within the designated budget.

There are some incredible personal accounts of his kindness as well. Redditor Kahi made the following comment about the Sad Keanu meme:

“A family friend builds movie sets, doesn’t design, is one of the poor dudes that just builds. Anyways he worked on the set for the Matrix and Keanu heard about family trouble he was having and gave him a $20,000 Christmas bonus to help him out. He also was one of the only people on the set that genuinely wanted to know people’s names, would say hello and mean it, and would talk to people as if they were his peers and not below him just because they were practically making nothing to build a set. I’ve never heard anyone say Keanu is a douche, seems like the nicest person in Hollywood from a second hand experience.”

In his AMA, he told fans that he likes to keep it simple. In 2003, Keanu told Hello! Magazine: “Money is the last thing I think about. I could live on what I have already made for the next few centuries.”

<i style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0980392);">Even though he’s likely worth $100 million, the man still rides the subway. And he’s super nice about it too.

So in the end, I think we can all pretty well agree that even in the face of tragedy, a stellar person can thrive.

The actress was very quick to reply with a hard "no."


"But, I’m proud of the resistance," she elaborated. "I’m proud of the people who are turning out in unprecedented numbers and continue over and over and over again to protest what Trump is doing. I’m very proud of them, that core."
I’m proud of the people who are turning out in unprecedented numbers and continue over and over and over again to protest what Trump is doing.
- Jane Fonda
During the same interview, the 79-year-old was asked if she had a "sense of regret" for her visit to North Vietnam in 1972.
The "Grace and Frankie" star said while she doesn't "regret going to Vietnam," she does regret appearing at an anti-aircraft ceremony that made her appear to be "siding with the enemy."
"The thing that I regret is that on my last day there, I made the mistake of going to a ceremony at an anti-aircraft gun," she added. "It wasn’t being used. There were no airplanes or anything like that. There was a ceremony. I was asked to sing and people were laughing and so forth and I was led, and I sat down. And then I got up and as I walked away, I realized, ‘Oh my gosh. It’s going to look like I am against my own country’s soldiers and siding with the enemy, which is the last thing in the world that was true."

She added, "I’m proud that I went. It changed my life all for the good."
