Do you sometimes NOT watch a movie because you can't stand the actor/actress? And who is it?

No. I've never disliked an actor or actress so much that it would prevent me from watching a film. Then again, I can't think of any actor or actress I really dislike.
-
I can't stand Meg Ryan and I do find it hard to make it through any of her movies. I'm not sure if it's her, or the fact that she makes really shitty movies. I don't like Kirsten Dunst or Jude Law either.
-
Yes. Anything with Eddie Murphy. He makes me cringe with embarrassment and never laugh. Given the money his films make, I must be weird. Torture is more entertaining than "Norbit", a movie in which he won a Golden Raspberry for Worst actor AND Worst Supprting actress AND worst Supporting actor. http://www.filmstalker.co.uk/archives/2008/02/golden_raspberry_2008_winners.html

I do not like goofy movies nor goofy characters played by goofy actors. I would never watch anything like or similar to Airplane or any of the so-called spoof movies. I would never watch Adam Sandler, Jim Carrey, Drew Carey, or Woody Allen. There are others, but you get the picture.

Ever since I saw Sean Connery saying its ok to hit women, I will not watch another movie he has made or if he makes another movie, I used to think he was wonderful and sexy and a great actor but the fact he said hitting women is ok, has made me loose all and any respect for him
-
Yes. Tom Cruise.
-
I simply cannot watch anything with will smith in. For so long he played that character in the fresh prince of bel air and for the following 10 or more years every role he took he played 'Will'. My partner says he's grown up and can actually act now but i can't even give him a chance. I used to hate Hugh Grant as to me he just seemed so wooden up until i watched Micky Blue eyes and my whole opinion of him changed, he does tend to play the same role all the time though!!
-
I refuse to watch anything with Will Ferrell in it.
-
I tend to avoid Tom Hanks and Will Smith and Adam Sandler that's all I can think of at the moment +5 I've seen movies with them in them , though. They all seem like very nice people -- I just haven't seen them do anything extraordinary for me.
-
I can't stand Vince Vaughn. Fingernails on a blackboard are more enjoyable than his characters. If he's in it, I won't rent it!
-
God, yes. Diane Keaton! I respect her longevity as an actress, but she overacts. Her characters are weepy, hysterical, and annoying.
-
I won't NOT see a movie just because I don't particularly like a particular actor or actress, but there are those that I will try to avoid when determining where to spend my movie money. Such as: Tom Cruise Julia Roberts Ben Stein Kathy Bates Kirk Cameron Woody Allen Meryl Streep Jack Black Mickey Rourke Mark Dacascos Casper Van Dien Fran Drescher Lorenzo Lamas etc...
-
Yeah, Tom Cruise is at the top of my list. I think Nicholas Cage and Mickey Rourke are pretty creepy.
-
can't watch ST Trinians because it's got that awful Rusell Brand in it...... god i hate him!!!!
-
Yeah. I feel that way about Tom Cruise. ;-)
-
Anything with Barbara Streisand in it.
-
There are a few I try to avoid but I wouldn't flat-out refuse to watch an otherwise good movie just because of one actor. Tom Cruise, Ben Affleck, Hugh Grant, Brad Pitt are among my least favourite.
-
Oh yes! Love Spiderman 2 & 3 but can't watch the first one b/c of Willem Dafoe. Something about the way he looks bothers me so badly that I can't stand watching his films.
-
I have never watched a film through that starred that whining muppet Woody Allen.
-
yep... im about to rent movies.. and i see a few good ones.. till i see the actors.. i dont like.. and i just go.. "yeah nevermind then" they are a few...
-
Yes. I refuse to watch any movie with Barbara Streisand.
-
i can't stand tom cruise and i won't watch or buy anything with him in it...
-
I have avoided a few movies starring Wil Ferrel or Ben Stiller.
-
I'll give them a chance, but I might talk through it if it really starts to annoy me. I usually don't like certain actors because they focus on their looks and call it acting, or they play the same character in every single movie they're in.
-
Sylvester Stallone!!! Jack Black Jim Carrey
-
Jack Lemmon. He is praised & praised but seems an awful ham. I've gotten to the point that anything he says is just "fingernails across the chalkboard."
