1 Note actor... Same exact role every single time...


You can take any of his characters and put any of them into any of his movies and you won't tell the difference.

Always some down-on-his luck poor me depressed schlub.

Every. Single. Freaking. Time.

Just once I'd like to see him as a happy go lucky type in a comedy.

That's pretty much the nature of "acting" these days. Talent got lost somewhere in the shuffle...

Nowadays, "actors" do the least amount of work for the most amount of $$$$$. Must be a great gig.

This isn't true at all. He has played numerous types of characters. His Shameless character is far different than what he played in The Room for example.

That doesn't take into account the many wanna-bes out there, who are all struggling for their proverbial 'big break'. Acting is one of the most difficult professions to crack, and has been for some time.
