Default Actors you cannot stand to watch
There are some movies I just can't quite bring myself to watch, based purely on who is in them.

These may be descent films, but just the fact that a particular person may have a starring role is enough to make me avoid them, purely because they annoy the crap outta me.

List the actor(s) that have this effect on you. I don't just mean someone you think is over rated, but the ones that just to hear they are in a film makes you say "Bugger that...I'll give it a miss thanks".

For me the main ones are:

Ben Stiller
Will Ferrell
Madonna

I've watched one Ben Stiller movie in the last few years, and that was because Drew Barrymore was in it.

Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Stallone, Steve Martin, "The Rock," and Black American rappers (although I can just stand Snoop in tiny doses!).

Steven Segal couldn't act in a commercial, much less a feature.
Julia Roberts except Erin Brokovich, that one she scraped through on.
James Belushi has made a shocker or two.

not a movie actor but an actor none the less, I dislike Jerry Seinfeld. He annoys me no end.

No, that's not a typo.

Whoopi Goldberg, Tom Selleck, Charles Grodin and all the other B graders who somehow land movie roles that are instantly forgetable.

Tom Cruise (Not only is he sleazy, he's a scientologist)
Hugh Grant (He's not the swarve, sophisticated man he thinks he is)
John Travolta (Two words: Grease, Scientology)
Jim Carey (I don't find his humour funny)
Rowan Atkinson (ditto with him)
Arnie & Sly (Only because you can watch almost any of their films and swear you're watching the same character each time)

Jim Carrey can't act but has got to be a legend, if only because he is going out with Jenny McCarthey

At least British comedians are funny (Benny Hill, Billy Connolly) UNLIKE Amercian comedians, Seinfeld, Williams etc etc etc, who need to have tape recorded laughs on their shows, so you know when to laugh.
