i feel like this might be the thread to talk about how some interesting actors have been funneled into the superhero/big budget junk film machine leaving little time for other projects. i was thinking about this poll while rewatching Zodiac recently and really enjoying RDJ in his role and missing that guy.

I only saw about half of The Judge and only vaguely remember the part I did watch, but that was enough to be certain that every copy of that movie must be hunted down and burned lest an poor unfortunate soul happens to stumble across it on cable and watch it, unaware of the maudlin swamp into which they are about to wade.

TT is good but man is it ever tarnished by the Tom Cruise stuff

i don't know why CHEF came out in the poll as the non-existent CHEF MARVIN but it's as plausible a film as any of these

― nomar, Monday, 19 June 2017 21:02 (seven years ago)

so anyway, he plays MARVIN in CHEF. you may remember the role, he played Sofia Vergara's ex-husband.

― nomar, Monday, 19 June 2017 21:03 (seven years ago)

I wanted him to be Chef Marvin Gardens

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 19 June 2017 21:04 (seven years ago)

he got the Oscar nom for TT b/c the Academy wouldn't recognize him in Iron Man.

I enjoyed Chef, but I've no memory of him in it.

― Dan Worsley, Monday, 19 June 2017 21:07 (seven years ago)

speaking of Oscars -- holy god Robert Duvall in The Judge...

He only had one scene as MARVIN in CHEF, and it was Downey being Downey, but that's my vote.

― Eazy, Monday, 19 June 2017 22:12 (seven years ago)

chef is bad imo can't remember him in it, otherwise only seen due date so I guess abstaining
