Message: [QUOTE="Dogdeacon, post: 2541638, member: 1026"] Agree on Burns, not only did he play he same guy as Brothers McM in everything else but he tried to rewrite the movie once or twice. He was good in Saving Private Ryan but that's it. So many actresses qualify; teens Ally Sheedy & Molly Ringwald never made it into adulthood. Amanda Peet (recently great in Togetherness). Isn't Phoebe Cates the definition of this? Actors a bit tougher, does Val Kilmer qualify? We've talked here about how he was so good as Doc Holiday and obviously iconic in Top Gun, ultimately got a spin as Batman. He's worked a ton & definitely a 'star' but almost nothing memorable in the last 20 years - expected a better career. Going another way what about Norm McDonald? So funny esp on SNL, but his starring turns in movies are as funny for being bad as they are just funny. [/QUOTE]
