I have never understood why I'm supposed to give a shit - in any way whatsoever - about any of the "Chris's" - all 3 of them.......or 4......or whatever it is....... I mean they seem nice enough, maybe? Or at least one or two of them do....or maybe I'm thinking of someone else.......

The name I keep hearing nonstop on these boards as if he's the gold standard right now: Adam Driver.

There's a lot. To start.
Hathaway - It begins with this girl. Boring and irrelevant Disney princess. You think I forgot about The Princess Diaries?? Nope, I didn't. I have the vaguest impression of this girl and I've never seen a Hathaway movie that doesn't suck. I'm glad she went away fast.
Chastain.... who's actually not bad. In fact she had a couple of good years in the early 10s, but she's apparently the chief representative of this decade's main ladies, yet she's a huge dropoff from the days where Kidman/Blanchett/Winslet/Zellweger/Roberts/Theron dominated.
Adam Driver is still that shirtless guy from Girls. That made more impact in my mind than anything he did after that.
Emma Watson. She was good in one movie (The Bling Ring) mostly because her American accent is pretty good, but I just simply find very little things more disinteresting than Harry Potter so by association I find her mostly disinteresting. It's funny none of the Harry Potter kids are known for much else after they finished the franchise.
Leonardo DiCaprio. I actually think he's a pretty good actor. I'm just tired of his fanboys. They live in an alternate reality where he's the most popular actor in the world. Maybe in Russia or China or wherever big budget movies dominate people's minds he's the most popular actor in the world, but here in America he's in the 2nd tier of popularity because you have to count people older than 40. He's behind stars like Will Smith, Denzel Washington, prime Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Clint Eastwood who impact a wider range of people. I don't think Scorsese, Tarantino, or Nolan are the rock stars IRL as they are here. Not that nobody over 40 is interested in them in the slightest, but I probably hear Stallone or Chuck Norris more namedropped by older people than Scorsese-Nolan-Tarantino.

Man is unhappy because he doesn't know he's happy. It's only that.

Brando and Nicholson - Both have one performance I like alot (The Godfather, Five Easy Pieces), but are generally just whatever to me. Inflated rep beyond measure.

DiCaprio and Chastain are like the king and queen of blah for me. Both fine, happily watch either in anything, very rarely feel strongly about anything they do.
Tom Hiddleston another one. I would have put Amy Adams in there too, but in her case these last couple of years have me tipping more towards genuine dislike.

Doesn't really count. He was in one movie and despite being the best thing in it, nobody associates him with HP because the character was so minor. He's the Twilight guy.
