In Reply to: Agreed: Kevin Costner has all the personality of a fishstick! - posted by vocalion on December 06, 2003 at 09:05:30:
I don't know about Kevin, as he never made any attempts at serious acting, but Tom represents a clear case. When Kubrick tried his old trick of taking a second rate actor and making him turn a tremendous performance, the best of that actor's career (he did it two and a half times before), both of them fell flat on their faces - I guess the dead rock of Tom's inability was too much even for the Grand Master.

.., because after second thoughts, I had felt bad about insulting a living person because of an aspect of themselves that they have little control over. On second thought it's the chain of command that is to blame (include the public), those who consciously dictate the use of inferior fish. They deserve my insults most.
I cringed very lightly over your description but Tom has so much to dislike in his "acting" and demeanor, that that was hardly a determining factor.Just his favorite right arm jesture alone should be enough to permanently disqualify any serious actor, yet he just keeps using it again, and again, and again...
