Matt Damon.

Vince farking Vaughn in third?

This isn't surprising.

Actors like Matt Damon and Vince Vaughn don't get the salaries that Tom Hanks and Brad Pitt get.

So if you can get the same box office return from a $10 million a movie actor as you can from a $20 million a movie actor, who are you going to cast?

I miss when everything Tom Hanks did was awesome, because even that was proceeded by his underrated comedic hit era of the 80's. Now every time he makes a movie I feel the same as I did watching Ryne Sandberg's comeback with The Cubs, I just don't want to see him embarass himself.

I think it has as much to do with Matt Damon choosing quality movies that the public wants to see rather than the public clamoring to see Matt Damon movies.

Funsucker: I think it has as much to do with Matt Damon choosing quality movies that the public wants to see rather than the public clamoring to see Matt Damon movies.

I think he does a little of both. I read some critic (too forgetful to remember their name, too lazy to look it up) say Matt Damon got his "Please Like ME!!!" performance out of the way with Good Will Hunting. I also seem to recall some Fark headline maybe last week (same excuses as before) where Matt Damon more or less gave credit to the Bourne franchise for resurrecting his then-moribund career. I also think that his performances in Syriana to The Departed to The Good Shepherd showed the guy's got a good knowledge of his own range.

That sound you hear is Ben Affleck's head exploding.

Confabulat: Jennifer Aniston makes movies?

Yes, yes she does, but not the kind that most men would like to see her in.

Syriana and The Departed were great films, certainly. And I can agree with The Bourne Identity resurrecting his slagging career. I mean, what did he in the couple years before then that was noticeable? Ocean's Eleven, where he was one face in a cast of many, and a voice-actor in two mediocre animated films, Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron and Titan A.E.

Confabulat: Jennifer Aniston makes movies?

Yes. And the only way she's top of this list is if she got paid $1.32 per day. The only movie of hers worth watching is "The Good Girl", and that's only to watch Gyllenhaal as a simpering loser and Zooey Deschanel as a weirdo checkout girl. Oh, and "Office Space", but that doesn't count since she's only in it for five minutes.

Matt has The Bourne Identity to thank for resurrecting his career.Prior to that, he couldn't get a part in a movie if he blew all of Hollywood. After the movie tested negatively but opened huge (so much for what Hollywood knows), he came back from Europe with many scripts waiting for him.

I still want to know why he's never written anything else? Oh yeah, I know. Cuz he and Ben A$$phuked didn't really write that screenplay.

two words: The Departed


borne was a great movie, the second was forgetable, but the departed really changed my mind about him being teh gehy.

"are you married state police detective, cause, you know, it's a big apartment"
"I have co-signah"
"oh right right, I see, you tend to have a house guest, that's cool"
"just give me the farking papers"

The Departed was a good movie?

Huh?

Directed by Scorsese? Won an Oscar?

O RLY?

Infernal Afffairs. Go watch it. See what a really good movie looks like.

Glad to see this. Damon's a great actor as long as he stays in his range and the Bourne movies fit right in there.

Bourne killed Bond, or at least made him get all 'gritty'.

Departed? Really? Meh.

Catch him in Good Shepard, underplayed it very nicely.

Ben Affleck is a balding homo.

GungFu Seen it. Remake was waay better. Not as profoundly dumb and stylized.

Pow!

/made me spit coffee on my keyboard...lol

Damon: Just take it from "It's a good course."
Affleck: Oh, now you're the director.
Damon: Hey shove it, Bounce-boy. Let's remember who talked who into doing this shiat in the first place. Talking me into Dogma was one thing, but this...
Affleck: Hey look, I'm sorry I dragged you away from whatever-gay-serial-killers-who-ride-horses-and-like-to-play-golf-touchy-feely-p icture you're supposed to be doing this week.
Damon: I take it you haven't seen Forces of Nature?
Affleck: You're like a child. What've I been telling you? You gotta do the safe picture. Then you can do the art picture. But then sometimes you gotta do the payback picture because your friend says you owe him.
Affleck: And sometimes, you have to go back to the well.
Damon: And sometimes, you do Reindeer Games.
Affleck: See, that's just mean.

I'll always see him as Edgar Pudwacker

Regardless of what anyone thinks of their acting abilities or movie choices, I've always thought that it would be fun to get a beer with Ben Affleck and Matt Damon.

And sleep with George Clooney, but I digress.

someone post a pic of that siamese twins movie
