Rainn Wilson = Pretty Good Actor


Rainn Wilson is a pretty funny guy, I think. I loved his quirky little role on "Six Feet Under", and in all honesty, it was pretty much a subdued version of Dwight, ha, ha!

To me, he and Steve Carell or the only reasons to watch "The Office". Everyone else is just dull in comparison, especially the oft overrated Jim and Pam. I think they will prove to be the ultimate downfall of the show, if they haven't revealed themselves to be already.

I would like to see Mr. Wilson in some movies. Maybe a dramedy? I think that would suit him well. He could still have little comedic moments, but a story that's more grounded in reality. What do you guys think?

I don't know how you can say Jim is overrated, he's the only grounded character that isn't over-the-top(Out of the leads), but is still funny. I love Dwight too, but Jim is hilarious.

I loved him as a movie critic in America's Sweethearts, especially when John Cusack falls on his table and Rainn smiles and says "I love your work!"

It's not easy having a gd time.

OP, I disagree. I think Rainn is a very good actor (at least
in "The Office").
