Name a star you wish took a different career path


Sometimes as a fan we can see the forest for the trees and know that a singer or actor has gone the wrong way. Who comes to mind?

I wish Lionel Richie had briefly experimented with professional decapitation through song on your misinformed beliefs and overall shitty behavior as expressed through your posts on this site, MovieChat.org.

If you are indeed a person -- an actual living breathing human being -- take a couple days off to contemplate some movie-centric topics. Maybe you can talk about this stuff with your "friends" at the "mall".

Anyway, I wish Lionel Richie wrote a whole song and made a music video about that. Please come back when you're ready to face the mountain that is the StoneKeeper game.

That's pretty far out there.

ADAM SANDLER...THE WEDDING SINGER AND PUNCH DRUNK LOVE SHOULD HAVE BEEN SIGNS OF AN EXPANDING TALENT...WE SAW FLASHES OF IT IN FUNNY PEOPLE AND UNCUT GEMS BUT OVERALL HE HAS DWELLED IN GOOFY HANGING WITH HIS FRIENDS COMEDIES THAT ALL CAST HIM AS HIMSELF.

reply

Agreed. Sandler should have done a few more dramas, just like Smith should have done a few more comedies.

I hear you, though I think Wedding Singer was at least half goofy. I sometimes regret that Will Ferrell's dramatic roles often get overlooked. OTOH, if he went full drama after "Stranger Than Fiction", we never would have gotten "Step Brothers".

reply

Will Smith. Don't get me wrong, he's a fantastic dramatic actor, but I grew up watching 'Fresh Prince' and I just wish he had sprinkled in a few more comedies over the years. He's sooooo funny, and he has barely utilized that aspect of his talent, at all.

HOW COULD YOU FORGET THE CLASSIC HITCH?

2005, guy!

That's true. He got caught up chasing Oscars.

Jonah Hill should be mowing lawns.

I know it's easy to make fun of charlie sheen now, but after platoon and wall street he could have been more selective which roles to choose.

He kind of blew it with Hot Shots and the garbage collector movie.
