We saw Hunger Games today. Good flick. But, it would have been flat if it hadn't have been for Woody Harrelson, and the incredible efforts of Jennifer Lawrence. Her character was in nearly every single shot of the movie. Which means, she held that entire story together, alone. I was more than impressed. I thought she was good in X-Men First Class. In Hunger Games, she owned the screen.

Got me thinking about the next generation of superstar actors. Of the ones I've been exposed to, I'd list these five as the very best of the crop (so far)...
  • 1) Jennifer Lawrence (see above)

    2) Chloe Moretz (Kick-Ass, 30 Rock, the upcoming Johnny Depp comedy Dark Shadows, etc. This little girl already showed the world what she can do--and say!--in Kick-Ass. She will go far.)

    3) Jonah Hill (If the guy can go from Superbad to working with Brad Pitt in Moneyball...and can hold his own....he's got something more than a fat-comedic act.)

    4) Emma Stone (This isn't one I personally have a lot experience in watching. But, as I understand it, she seems to keep going and going, winning great word-of-mouth and critical reviews. She's Gwen Stacy in the upcoming The Amazing Spider-Emo with that walking set of eyebrows, Garfield-whatsisname. I won't hold it against her. Unless "it" is my penis.)

    5) Carey Mulligan (Drive, Doctor Who - Blink, etc. She's barely been in Hollywood for seven years and already been nominated for an Oscar three times. Her one episode of Doctor Who as "Sally Sparrow" in Blink is ranked as the second-best episode of all-time in the 50-year history of the series, and was nominated for multiple awards, winning the Hugo Award in 2007. She'll definitely be around for a long time to come. Great actress.)


Anybody have any favorites?

Jonah Hill sucks. He's just always Jonah Hill. Shia Labouf is a better actor.

Well, your opinion certainly brings a value to the discussion. How about you list your own, and then I can shit on yours?

Why would I bother? I'm drinking fine wine. You're drinking grape juice.

BTW, I noticed not a single person has added a single post stating their own preference for actors. No one. Just " PRO HAS AN OPINION!!! "

So, no one say a fucking word about me trolling. Everytime I hear "oh if only you would create nice topics instead of trolling the boards would be SO much better, etc., etc." I'm going to laugh and troll you.

The fact has been proven. You're wrong. I'm right. Thanks for playing, children.

Prometheus = One post ---> \:lol\:

Ultimate Jake = Five Posts --->

Poor Jacob.

Meanwhile, I'll try and help you out, J. The phrase "next generation" in the title is to indicate the up-and-coming actors or actresses who have not fully proven themselves in the eyes of history, but have sincere promise in the talent we've seen. The fact that you're stuck with Howard Stern, the cast of Jackass, and mafia movies from 30 years ago means you probably have neither the mental aptitude to have a meaningful discussion about the subject, nor the capacity to accept new ideas beyond "DEERRRR!!! FART!!!"

Enjoy your "fine wine", Jersey Shore. Meanwhile, moving on with the subject of the thread, I reiterate my point: If you ain't got nothing to offer, then you're just proving me right. Again, thanks for playing, pawns...

The topics have to be good, Pro.

Seriously, I don't really follow a lot of new stuff lately, as little of it interests me. So I can't offer too much on the subject. That said, I think Michael Angarano should be having the career that Jonah Hill's had, and Justin Long should give his to Jay Baruchel.

Until I see Jonah Hill play a guitar, I will have to say that you're insulting Jack Black.

And I don't understand what's the big deal about me choosing Jonah Hill. All I said was that if he can get critical acclaim as he got from MONEYBALL, then there's more to him than comedic acting. That's all.

Once again, CHOOSE YOUR OWN. That's the point of the thread...

It's either this, or Doctor Who. What do you want of me? ;\)

Only thing I know Angarano from is that Gentlemen Broncos movie, and yeah he was good. And I only know Jay Baruchel from Almost Famous. So, I can't judge, really. But, I like Justin Long. I have a soft spot for him since Galaxy Quest and Dodgeball. He's a good comedic actor...

Angarano was also in Sky High. Baruchel's done some indy films that he was really good in. He's also in Tropic Thunder as the only guy who actually read the book and script.
