Brendan Fraser is the Anti-Johnny Depp
Yes, while everyone creams over how cool Johnny Depp is and how brave he is for taking so many chancy roles, everyone forgets that Fraser takes even chancier roles (must I say "George of the Jungle) and does a fine job in every one of them. But he´s not "cool."

Re: Brendan Fraser is the Anti-Johnny Depp
as a guy, I can watch Brendan in a movie and enjoy it, he´s very capable
something about Depp irks me, he has some marginal talent, but is not entertaining

Robert Downey jr. is real good too despite his past problems, go watch ´Chaplin ´

Re: Brendan Fraser is the Anti-Johnny Depp
Depp has the ability to bring something to a part that many actors just cant do.. Through all the memorable parts he has had i never have a problem accepting him in a new character role. I never think back to when he played so and so.. To me that is rare for an actor.

Fraser just has an annoying voice.. Cant stand his movies.

::edit::Ray Liotta is an over looked/under rated actor IMO.

They are both good at what they do. Not as good as say John Travolta but good.

Re: Brendan Fraser is the Anti-Johnny Depp
Brendan´s best role was in "The Mummy". A perfect replacement for the aging Harrison Ford, who can now take more mature roles like Sean Connery.

Buddy...ok, code?? hi

I agree, Mummy was REALLY good. A very good role and the one that gained him the attention he deserves.

Did I mention...

Re: Brendan Fraser is the Anti-Johnny Depp
Brendan is a fucking conceited arrogant tool

so is Depp

Depp just has better politics and can be someone other than ´himself´ in a role

Brendan is ´brendan´ in every dogshit b movie they put him in, just like Bruce Willis.

Can´t suspend my belief for one second that he is someone else

and the mummy series was shite

I don´t think he has quite the right ´feel´ for a comedic actor. The only role I liked him in were the mummy series.

Really, y´all, I don´t love him just because he´s hot...I´m not like that at all. I think he is a very good actor that can take any role and make it his own. I really do.

Re: Brendan Fraser is the Anti-Johnny Depp
I wish they didn´t choose him for ´loony tunes back in action´. Then again, I didn´t think the writers for that movie did a good job either...they shot themselves in the foot with that movie.

They could have brought the looney tunes back with a tour de force movie but it was just another mediocre movie by people who don´t "get it".

Sorry for being off topic but I had to bring it up since that was one of Frasers movies.

Re: Brendan Fraser is the Anti-Johnny Depp
his only forte is comic parody and even that is not very good. His ego is only preceeded by Ben Affleck´s in size. The lad´s just fulla himself.

are you serious about The Mummy? comic book shit

What the fuck was the contrived airship in the sequel? It was like a surreal computer generated rip off of Fitzcaraldo.

Depp is the ´anti-fraser´. Not mediocre, not predictable, not pedestrian.

bBut both men are vastly over rated. ditto for farrell and orlando bloom. Little in any of these younger pups to move me. I look to men at least 10 years older than them. More mature

Re: Brendan Fraser is the Anti-Johnny Depp
I can´t believe we are actually getting into this, lol, but are you sure you have the right person with Brendan? Really, I´m being serious.

He comes off so intelligent and down to earth is one of the reasons I like him so much. He doesn´t do the Hollywood party scene and is very low key...I really wonder if you aren´t confusing him. I´m not being rude I´m just curious. :)

Re: Brendan Fraser is the Anti-Johnny Depp
You made the mistake of having a teen crush on him in Empire Records and he has not shown an iota of skill since then other than in mocking the roles he is given, not absorbing them and owning them to the core of himself

I didn´t think he did a good job in George of the Jungle or Dudley Do-Right, and MonkeyBone was absolutely HORRID! I don´t get that ´funny´ spirit off of him.

Actors are nobody´s, what have they contributed to the well being of others, to deserve the wealth they get today? NOTHING

They are all spoiled little rich elitists. Just like athletes.

Ok, ok, y´all good grief, he´s HOT and as I said this has been going on since I was a teenager. I didn´t go see George of the Jungle 5 times at the theater for the plot.

LOL, I really do think he is good but since it only seems to be women my age who agree, maybe I´m wrong. I see talent though.

As I said, we can agree to disagree :)
