I never really understood the appeal of Will Ferrell. I'm not a big fan of Adam Sandler, but at least I can understand how his amiable goofiness can be appealing to some people. With Ferrell, I just don't get it.

Some other SNL alums I find annoying, too, like David Spade and Rob Schneider.

I used to enjoy Arnold Schwarzenegger and his movies, but I think he's kind of gotten annoying since he got elected, and then left office.

I never really liked Gwyneth Paltrow, but she was tolerable in the Iron Man movies. I usually find Nicole Kidman kind of annoying, too. Never saw the appeal of either woman.

I agree. I was never a big Rob Schneider fan either and should have put him on my earlier list. David Spade was better when Chris Farley was alive and they were in a few movies together. They had some comic "chemistry" as opposites so to speak. Without Farley, he is basically average.

Matt Damon (used to like him, but...)
Ben Stiller
Owen/Luke Wilson
Danny Houston

lol re Shia LeBoeuf

Basically any of the tabloid personas. Not even actors imo. Aniston, what's his name, Paul Rudd oh and Sarah Jessica Parker.

I'm always going to thrift stores and picking up stacks of these old VHS tapes for 50 cents a piece, and last night I watched Chocolat for the first time. I loved Juliette Binoche, Judi Dench, Lena Olin, but along comes Johnny Depp. halfway thru the movie, to ruin it for me!

Seeing him, can't explain it, if very unsettling for me! Where's the talent, if nothing else!!

I really enjoyed Captain Phillips but I have to agree with you. What did me in was Polar Express, a beloved movie with my entire family except grouchy old mom---me. They watch it multiple times at Christmas. The whole thing seemed to be a celebration of Tom Hanks. It is taking me a long time to recover, lol.

Tom Cruise is another actor I'm not that fond of. Oh and Alec Baldwin because of his real life antics.

I'm not really fond of Tom Cruise either but I just find him overrated. He doesn't really bother me. There are a few people that I get tired of seeing but most don't grind my gears. The only ones I can honestly say I dislike are Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens. I can't stand Zac because he's fruity and Vanessa always rubbed me the wrong way. The naked picture situation didn't help my perception of her either.

(if Taylor Swift counts I dislike her more than those two put together but I don't know if she counts as an actress)

Will Ferrell. I think he's good for snl type shows but how he's made millions in the film industry is beyond me.

George Clooney. I just do not understand why women think he is sexy. He looks like Jaye Leno's better looking brother. He gets on my last nerve.

Gwyneth Paltrow. I don't get her at all. I always feel like she sleepy or drugged up when she acts.

I have always thought Amy Poehler and Seth Meyers were terrible on SNL. I cringe every time Amy Poehler gets a new comedy gig on network TV.
