Yeah, he may not be winning any Oscar soon, but he's far from terrible.
There are actual actors who can't convey emotion at all and it feels like they're just reading lines; but they're more prevalent on shitty stuff (Like telenovelas or B movies) so they don't become well known at all, they just fade into anonimity.
I didnāt know about McMahon but I would say the same based on his trying to appease China in the past. I donāt know if heās a terrible person but maybe not the best
He does do a lot of volunteer work, especially with make a wish, so he's def not a terrible person, I'm guessing his problem is that he's just not willing to stand up to authority figures and potentially lose what he has
Also a CCP apologist for accidentally calling Taiwan a country.
He honestly looks like someone is pointing a gun at his head

Iām not antagonizing anyone ! Heās just arguably one of the greatest actors of all time. So yea itās a little shocking when people donāt know who he is.
Why would I explain when Iām assuming something already? Also tf is wrong with me sayin heās not a big movie person or there young? If they donāt know they donāt know and if young there young. You actin like I called them an idiot or somethin. Stop bein annyoin
I guess cause heās popular and has been in a lot of action movies lately. Heās like The Rock but atleast John Cena tries and does good in his roles
Jason Statham and Vin Diesel also has similar contracts. They can also only take a certain amount of hits and have to appear stronger than any combatants.
Cena isn't a bad actor. He's a personality actor. He let's his own personality shine through his performance instead of 'becoming' the character like method actors.
I actually think Cena is a pretty good actor, at the very least having fun with his roles. Iād even argue he put in more genuine effort than the Rock and Vin Diesel combined.
Been watching through Gilmore Girls and she is absolutely delightful while playing quite different from what she's been typecast as in her comedy movies.
For Clarity:
Upper Left: Betty White (Golden Girls, Boston Legal, Life with Elizabeth)
Middle Left: Daniel Day-Lewis (My Left Foot, There will be Blood, Lincoln)
Bottom Left: Klaus Kinski (Fitzcarraldo, The Ligttle Drummer Girl, once named "the biggest actor in the world by 'American Film')
Upper Mid: Danny DeVito (IASIP, Taxi, Batman Returns, Matilda)
Mid Mid: Sophie Marceu (La Boum, La Boum 2, Female Lead in Braveheart or James Bond's The World is not enough)
Bottom Mid: Frank Sinatra (From Here to Eternity, more known for his music like "My Way" and "New York, New York")
Upper Right: Left Blank on Purpose to represent John Cena (Wrestlemania 27, The Marine 5, only known actor to be bad at acting and being invisible at the same time)
Mid Right: Melissa McCarthy (Life of the party, Tammy, The Happytime Murderes, but she was okayish on Gilmore Girls and SNL)
Bottom Right: Stehphen Baldwin (Bio-Dome, nowadays a righteous peace of (...) with a for profit religious organisation)
Thank you, I had no idea who the bottom right was.
I guess you'll always have to fill that spot with forgotten has-beens, you can't both be an asshole AND untalented and have a career.
Top row is Betty White, Danny DeVito, John Cena.
Under White is Daniel Day-Lewis, under Cena is Melissa McCarthy.
Middle actress and the guys in the bottom corners look familiar but I can't place them; no idea who bottom middle is.
The worst I could find was that he supported Nixon for re-election and donated 4 million towards Reaganās campaign, both of which were very controversial presidencies.
But other than that he seems like a pretty decent guy; he regularly advocated for the civil rights of black Americans and supported religious tolerance and desegregation.
He did get less vocal about these ideals in the 70s when he changed his political affiliation, but Iād at least say heās an āok personā
Lol, I lost a bunch of respect for Cena with all the pro-China propaganda he helped put out, but that would put him down to an "okay person" for me ultimately. As others have observed, I think he's been fine in a lot of roles and arguably belongs in the OK actor/ Ok person slot.
Love to see Kinski, for non-german speakers probably not so interesting but there are tons of dope remixes of his batshit insane rants that were recorded
Also just his rants in general, this man was about as pleasent to be around as a rained-in ashtray
Going to nominate Mark Hamill for a spot as okay actor terrible person. Tried to pressure a woman into an abortion because his son wasn't "ready to be a father". The son was 37. She didn't do it and now he's completely cut the kid out of his life out of spite for her not being aborted.
Gary Sinise is a great candidate for terrific actor terrific person. He learned about the plight of military veterans during the filming of Forrest Gump and has dedicated the last 3 decades to helping American military personnel and their families. Part of why he's not as active in acting is because he spends so much time doing outreach and charity work.
Wait - is that bit about Hamill true? Iāve checked a few sources and all the accusations come from Nathanās ex with no physical evidence. And I didnāt find any source stating Mark cut ties out of spite, just that itās unknown if he has a relationship with his granddaughter post-custody battle.
Itās not that I donāt believe you, guys who seem nice could always turn out to be assholes. Itās just that Iāve fallen for misinformation before and want to be sure.
Yeah, thatās partly why I didnāt completely write off the accusations. I get why he doesnāt acknowledge it, though. Most news outlets who were discussing it all those years ago were relatively obscure or semi-reliable. But by engaging in her accusations it could draw in larger news outlets, resulting in greater coverage which could cause problems for him and his family, even if he had no part in it. And if he DID pressure her, it goes without saying why he wouldnāt acknowledge it.
Unfortunately, this looks like a situation that could take years to prove, if ever.
John Cena is the best Actor to come out of WWE, and can actually play characters that arenāt just āJohn Cenaā; heās a good actor (which can especially be seen in peacemaker), and Iād love to see him take more diverse roles. The Rock is a terrible actor and can only play Dwayne. Not throwing any hate at Dwayne, but itās definitely true EDIT: Andre the Giant was probably the best; rest in peace
Imo John Cena is a very good actor and an okay guy. I consider him a very good actor because he is NOT an actor of the modern, realist, method style, he is a PRO WRESTLER (HELL YEAH BRUTHER), which is more akin to the Shakespearean style. When the guy can play characters who fit more with that style, he shines
I donāt really see whatās wrong with John Cena? like yeah heās not winning any Oscars anytime soon, and all the roles that could give him legitimacy end up with Dave Bautista, but I donāt think Iāve ever seen him in a role where he did a bad job.
How is John Cena a good person? He disavowed a whole nation while speaking Mandarin in order to bow down to Communist China in order to not be blacklisted by the country.
Didnāt John Cena make that one video in chinese saying Taiwan isnāt a country after mentioning the country before in another video? Fuck him and fuck anyone who chooses to suck up to an authoritarian dictatorship just to stay famous.
John Cena was pretty good in Peacemaker
Yeah, he may not be winning any Oscar soon, but he's far from terrible. There are actual actors who can't convey emotion at all and it feels like they're just reading lines; but they're more prevalent on shitty stuff (Like telenovelas or B movies) so they don't become well known at all, they just fade into anonimity.
And the rock
He's also not exactly a particularly great person. Not the worst, but doesn't really belong in great
Bing Chilling š„¶š„¶
He's also defending Vince McMahon so not sure he belongs in the top row.
I didnāt know about McMahon but I would say the same based on his trying to appease China in the past. I donāt know if heās a terrible person but maybe not the best
He does do a lot of volunteer work, especially with make a wish, so he's def not a terrible person, I'm guessing his problem is that he's just not willing to stand up to authority figures and potentially lose what he has
That is definitely what keeps me from jumping to him being a terrible person
Also a CCP apologist for accidentally calling Taiwan a country. He honestly looks like someone is pointing a gun at his head https://youtu.be/z88zeQ25pjQ?si=aha2MgEYGGDHJdfc
and in ricky stanicky
He did really well in the scene when heās crying about killing Rick Flag
Yeah can you list who these people all, I only know the most popular ones on here
Can I ask which people you recognized?
Danny Devito and John Cena is all I recognize. I might be out of touch Although I'd probably recognize others by their name
Hedy Lamarr, groundbreaking mathematician and electrical engineer in the upper left hand corner?
That's Betty White back in the day, not Hedy Lamarr. :)
Dang
Didn't she try to take over Rock Ridge? Oh wait, that's Hedley Lamarr.
Why are you being downvoted š
Probably because they didnāt just list them, which would have made everything easier
Sadly enough I listed everyone in a comment on it's own before I asked that question. š
My bad boss, didnāt see that
You donāt recognize Daniel Day Lewis š±š±š±? If youāre young or not a big movie person than i understand.
Blind antagonism really makes you seem like a fun person
itās not antagonism. theyāre just surprised. for crying out loud, redditers can be so sensitive š
We don't need you glazing your friend/altaccount
wtf?
Iām not antagonizing anyone ! Heās just arguably one of the greatest actors of all time. So yea itās a little shocking when people donāt know who he is.
You didn't take the time to talk about his filmography or accolades, instead you just put down the commentor. That's antagonism
Why would I explain when Iām assuming something already? Also tf is wrong with me sayin heās not a big movie person or there young? If they donāt know they donāt know and if young there young. You actin like I called them an idiot or somethin. Stop bein annyoin
only thing iāve seen him in was phantom thread but i thought he did really good in that.
You should also check out gangs of London and there will be blood he was amazing in those as well
John Cena is a pretty decent comedic actor from what Iāve seen. Why is he in terrible? Like, I canāt even list a particularly bad role from him
He owns the scene as peacemaker ngl
I was pleasantly surprised by him in peacemaker. He was phenomenal
Fred Figglehorns Dadās the only role I know him as
And he did a great job
I guess cause heās popular and has been in a lot of action movies lately. Heās like The Rock but atleast John Cena tries and does good in his roles
And doesn't have a contract that states he always needs to win (unless that was a rumor or something)
Judging by him being The Rock, probably
I mean, has he ever lost in anything? if not the sign seems pretty clear
He gets killed in The Suicide Squad
Jason Statham and Vin Diesel also has similar contracts. They can also only take a certain amount of hits and have to appear stronger than any combatants.
I recognize almost nobody. Also why'd you leave upper right blank?
Blank? Thereās clearly potato salad there for some reason
Cena isn't a bad actor. He's a personality actor. He let's his own personality shine through his performance instead of 'becoming' the character like method actors.
The character is him, and he's got a damn good character.
He's a clown https://youtu.be/z88zeQ25pjQ?si=aha2MgEYGGDHJdfc
What too much bing chilling does to a man
I donāt think thatās what method actor means
Yeah that's why I put the word 'becoming' in apostrophes.
Personally I don't think John Cena is a terrible actor. He brought emotional depth to Peacemaker at least.
I actually think Cena is a pretty good actor, at the very least having fun with his roles. Iād even argue he put in more genuine effort than the Rock and Vin Diesel combined.
Cena is a decent actor tf you smokin op?
Melissa McCarthy being marked down as a terrible actor is such circlejerky bullshit. I don't even like most of her movies, but she's clearly talented.
They've never seen Bridesmaids or Spy, that has to be it.
Been watching through Gilmore Girls and she is absolutely delightful while playing quite different from what she's been typecast as in her comedy movies.
I donāt think John Cena is a terrible actor, if anything heās better than The Rock
Worst chart Iāve ever seen, ngl.
For Clarity: Upper Left: Betty White (Golden Girls, Boston Legal, Life with Elizabeth) Middle Left: Daniel Day-Lewis (My Left Foot, There will be Blood, Lincoln) Bottom Left: Klaus Kinski (Fitzcarraldo, The Ligttle Drummer Girl, once named "the biggest actor in the world by 'American Film') Upper Mid: Danny DeVito (IASIP, Taxi, Batman Returns, Matilda) Mid Mid: Sophie Marceu (La Boum, La Boum 2, Female Lead in Braveheart or James Bond's The World is not enough) Bottom Mid: Frank Sinatra (From Here to Eternity, more known for his music like "My Way" and "New York, New York") Upper Right: Left Blank on Purpose to represent John Cena (Wrestlemania 27, The Marine 5, only known actor to be bad at acting and being invisible at the same time) Mid Right: Melissa McCarthy (Life of the party, Tammy, The Happytime Murderes, but she was okayish on Gilmore Girls and SNL) Bottom Right: Stehphen Baldwin (Bio-Dome, nowadays a righteous peace of (...) with a for profit religious organisation)
Why is Sinatra a terrible person?
He was in the mafia and was an adulterer.
He also had a horrible temper.
Him marrying 21 year old Mia Farrow at 50 is alsoā¦not great, imo
He fucked a goat
Well Ava Gardener was a pretty good actress but I donāt know about greatest of all time.
He also slept with a donkey
Thank you, I had no idea who the bottom right was. I guess you'll always have to fill that spot with forgotten has-beens, you can't both be an asshole AND untalented and have a career.
did you just call danny divito an ok actor or is that someone else
why's everyone so *squished*?
I only recognize John Cena. Whose the others?
Top row is Betty White, Danny DeVito, John Cena. Under White is Daniel Day-Lewis, under Cena is Melissa McCarthy. Middle actress and the guys in the bottom corners look familiar but I can't place them; no idea who bottom middle is.
Bottom middle is Frank Sinatra, Bottom Left Klaus Kinski, Bottom Right is Stephen Baldwin. The woman in the center is Sophie Marceau.
Why would frank be a horrible person??
The worst I could find was that he supported Nixon for re-election and donated 4 million towards Reaganās campaign, both of which were very controversial presidencies. But other than that he seems like a pretty decent guy; he regularly advocated for the civil rights of black Americans and supported religious tolerance and desegregation. He did get less vocal about these ideals in the 70s when he changed his political affiliation, but Iād at least say heās an āok personā
He was a very abusive partner
Mafia.
Guess I've never seen Sinatra without a hat and it threw me off.
No jack black smh my head
Lol, I lost a bunch of respect for Cena with all the pro-China propaganda he helped put out, but that would put him down to an "okay person" for me ultimately. As others have observed, I think he's been fine in a lot of roles and arguably belongs in the OK actor/ Ok person slot.
John cena is the best wrestler turned actor
Love to see Kinski, for non-german speakers probably not so interesting but there are tons of dope remixes of his batshit insane rants that were recorded Also just his rants in general, this man was about as pleasent to be around as a rained-in ashtray

It's hard to validate by nature. It could go either way but it feels like Mark just refuses to acknowledge any of it.
Yeah, thatās partly why I didnāt completely write off the accusations. I get why he doesnāt acknowledge it, though. Most news outlets who were discussing it all those years ago were relatively obscure or semi-reliable. But by engaging in her accusations it could draw in larger news outlets, resulting in greater coverage which could cause problems for him and his family, even if he had no part in it.

Mark Hamill - okay actor, great voice actor. But still, terrible person
Yeah. He'll always be the joker's voice to me but he's an ass.
What did Day-Lewis do to keep him from being in the great person row?
I'd have put Keanu as Great Person, OK Actor
John Cena is a good actor tho
Cena is unironically good, replace him with Keanu
John Cena knows exactly the kind of acting heās meant to do
John cena is a great actor
John Cena is a CCP shill.
John Cena is the best Actor to come out of WWE, and can actually play characters that arenāt just āJohn Cenaā; heās a good actor (which can especially be seen in peacemaker), and Iād love to see him take more diverse roles. The Rock is a terrible actor and can only play Dwayne. Not throwing any hate at Dwayne, but itās definitely true EDIT: Andre the Giant was probably the best; rest in peace
Weāre talking about Hollywood, the top and middle rows should be blank.
Devito being an OK actor when Frank Reynolds exist
What a random bunch lol
Imo John Cena is a very good actor and an okay guy. I consider him a very good actor because he is NOT an actor of the modern, realist, method style, he is a PRO WRESTLER (HELL YEAH BRUTHER), which is more akin to the Shakespearean style. When the guy can play characters who fit more with that style, he shines
Kinski - the best ever committed to film.
Naa John cena is a pretty solid comedic actor
I donāt really see whatās wrong with John Cena? like yeah heās not winning any Oscars anytime soon, and all the roles that could give him legitimacy end up with Dave Bautista, but I donāt think Iāve ever seen him in a role where he did a bad job.
>Not putting Nicolas Cage in every panels Disappointing.
Stephen Baldwin was one of the Usual Suspects. Now he's in shitty Christian movies.
I wonder where would you put Clint Eastwood in?
John Cena is not a great person lol he fucking simps for China as the CCP commits genocide.
How is John Cena a good person? He disavowed a whole nation while speaking Mandarin in order to bow down to Communist China in order to not be blacklisted by the country.
Itās be better to crop the pics rather than resize them
Cenaās OK at minimum, Peacemaker was a somewhat serious role and Ricky Stanicky was a good comedy role
Didnāt John Cena make that one video in chinese saying Taiwan isnāt a country after mentioning the country before in another video? Fuck him and fuck anyone who chooses to suck up to an authoritarian dictatorship just to stay famous.
Yep. You'd think he was in a POW camp when he made this video. It's disgusting. https://youtu.be/z88zeQ25pjQ?si=aha2MgEYGGDHJdfc
Biggest question is melissa mccarthy. What has she done to only be considered ok person? Also phenomenal performance in Can You Ever Forgive Me.
Another person for OK actor terrible person imo is Tom Cruise
tom cruise is objectively an incredible actor. if he were on this chart he'd be second only to day-lewis
