  • MCA2142, on 04/20/2009, -0/+73"Brendan Fraser - Tarzan"

    He never played Tarzan. He was George of the Jungle.
    Casper Van Dien(Starship Troopers) played Tarzan.
  • EarthernJar, on 04/20/2009, -2/+73I know it's trendy to rip on Nicolas Cage these days, I know he HAS done a load of crappy movies in recent years, and I know I'll get dug down all the way to China for saying this, but I actually liked him in The Rock.
  • oriondr, on 04/20/2009, -1/+36George of the jungle wasn't an "Action" movie any more than finding Nemo was adult erotica.

    I totally want to digg it for the Steven Seagull, but bury it for the inaccuracy of saying Brendan Fraser was in Tarzan.
  • LimeParrot, on 04/20/2009, -0/+29Yeah but his role in The Departed made serious amends.
  • TheJimid, on 04/20/2009, -9/+35Wow....really surprised at the lack of Mark Wahlberg on this list.
  • foxhound009, on 04/20/2009, -1/+26I like "The Rock" :P...
    Segal deservers a bigger font for the worst actor eva imo...
  • lokee73, on 04/20/2009, -2/+22Kurt Thomas...Gymkata.

  • raks1991, on 04/20/2009, -2/+15Dugg for putting Clooney on the list for Batman.A bad decision by a great actor.
    Others are douche bags.Exxcept for Cage,Berry and Leno.
  • grandinferno, on 04/20/2009, -1/+13I can't believe you said that on the internet.
  • LimeParrot, on 04/20/2009, -0/+11Look at the surname... Brucie Li was a Bruce Lee replacement that was obviously a disaster.
  • inactive, on 04/20/2009, -0/+11Corey Haim - Prayer for the Rollerboys is one of the worst movies ever. My sister had a crush on him and I had to watch that movie about a thousand times. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-_7EVc0JXs&fea ...
  • raks1991, on 04/20/2009, -0/+11He was in The Marine.They got the pic wrong.
  • Kronos6948, on 04/20/2009, -0/+10Where's Brian Bosworth?
  • aspec, on 04/20/2009, -1/+11What the hell is the author of this article talking about? Lundgren was only in one Universal Soldier movie. I didn't think he was terrible there either.
  • kthoma22, on 04/20/2009, -1/+9Forgot Jean Claude Van Dame in Street Fighter
  • LimeParrot, on 04/20/2009, -0/+8I really loved George of the Jungle and Encino Man as a kid... ><
  • jack104, on 04/20/2009, -0/+8Oh hell yea...he may have played a pussbag in the movie but it was some solid acting.
    "Your best? Losers always complain about their best. Winners go home and F*ck the prom queen.......Carla was the prom queen."
  • krahzee, on 04/20/2009, -0/+7Incomplete.

    No Dennis Rodman in Simon Sez? Terrible movie made all the worse by having Dane Cook as one of his costars.

    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0168172/
  • drmangrum, on 04/20/2009, -0/+7He'll always be Ivan Drago.

    "I must break you."
  • inactive, on 04/20/2009, -2/+9I have to disagree with "The Rock". I thought that was a great movie!
  • inactive, on 04/20/2009, -2/+8He had nipples on his bat armor. Enough said.
  • DigitalBenjamin, on 04/20/2009, -0/+6How is "Gymkata" not on this list?
  • anklesnap, on 04/20/2009, -3/+9Great list....so funny
  • Kosgey69, on 04/20/2009, -4/+10John Cena was in Bad Boys II?

    /fail
  • ddawggin, on 04/20/2009, -0/+6I surprisingly REALLY want to see this Vanilla Ice film. Anybody gotta a copy they want to loan me?
  • LimeParrot, on 04/20/2009, -1/+6Consider yourself roundhouse kicked... (no but seriously, what the heck does Alien Mushroom mean O_O)
  • grandinferno, on 04/20/2009, -0/+5I can't believe Dolph is on the list. That really is unbelievable... He's awesome! Remember the first Punisher?? lol
  • LimeParrot, on 04/20/2009, -0/+5Worst One-liner: [after crushing some guys skull] “Take some aspirin for that headache!”
    Man... as a pharmacy student, this cracked me the ***** up.
  • inactive, on 04/20/2009, -0/+5lrn2read
  • drmangrum, on 04/20/2009, -0/+5To be fair, some of those wrestlers tuned actors didn't do a bad job, they just had horrible scripts and directors to work with. Breaking our of wrestling doesn't really entitle them to a top rate film crew. Even an "a-list" actors have made some pretty crappy movies (as evidenced by this list) due to poor scripts and horrible direction.
  • litolist, on 04/20/2009, -0/+5"Yo wassup Dick...hehe oops I mean Nick"

    Yeah, it's a gem.
  • doctechnical, on 04/20/2009, -0/+5No. The film was so god-awful that no amount of T&A could save it, even with the sound muted. Even if it included a scene where a lesbo super-villainess fist-***** Berry for half an hour, it couldn't have saved this howler.
  • Napiertt, on 04/20/2009, -0/+4Not to mention "The Big Hit"
    Classic
  • markgl, on 04/20/2009, -1/+5What? Get your priorities stright. Van Damme rocks.
  • artfiend77, on 04/20/2009, -0/+4That's a lame one liner. His best one was " I'm about to take you to the bank....the BLOOD BANK."
  • BenTheTank, on 04/20/2009, -0/+4It is ***** amazing. Do anything you can to find it, and when you do, don't watch it alone. It's so much better in a group.
  • LimeParrot, on 04/20/2009, -3/+7Dude, it's not trendy to rip on Nicholas Cage. It's more like... he won't stop making ***** movies... it's like a pigeon that won't stop following you around, and ***** on your car, and your dog, and your new jacket, and eats babies. Seriously, he's gotta stop making *****.
  • FullMetalNIN, on 04/20/2009, -0/+4I watched The Rock a few days ago for the first time in years. I was shocked to find out that it wasn't directed by Michael Bay.
  • BumbyKnuckles, on 04/20/2009, -2/+6Bad Boy is still a classic in many peoples opinions ML & WS did their thing in both of the two movies but what can u say there are critics everywhere
  • inactive, on 04/20/2009, -0/+4How about Howie Long in Firestorm? Epically awful.
  • gizmo12688, on 04/20/2009, -0/+4and Max Payne was just *****.
  • anexanhume, on 04/20/2009, -0/+4Hulk Hogan?

    He clocked a mime. That's gotta be worth something, right?
  • AlienMushroom, on 04/20/2009, -0/+4Don't worry, I am from the Internet.
  • PhantomRogue, on 04/20/2009, -0/+3Or they just typed into the web browser... www.imdb.com and searched for Brendan Fraser.
  • humptyz, on 04/20/2009, -1/+4I actually like Jennifer Garner as Elektra.
  • bjs3171, on 04/20/2009, -0/+3How the does this site keep getting diggs? It's a ***** virus site.
  • punkcat, on 04/20/2009, -0/+3when things get hot, just add ice.
