Yes Cameron Diaz’ performance in that movie was legendary

I fundamentally disagree with your feelings about Leonardo DiCaprio.
That's cool. Look I don't dislike Leo and as I have said I thought the Aviator was his best stand alone work as a lead. I just think the company he shares on the silver screen has greatly elevated his career which was the topic I created. I'm not trying to slam the actor. Rather the reverse. He's been smart enough to take the kind of roles that he shares with bigger names that has greatly elevated his career.

Perhaps but who were the better actors that propped up Clooney? Guy was starring in films with the likes of Jennifer Lopez and Mark Wahlberg when he made it big. Those two aren’t exactly Meryl Streep and DDL. And while he did have good actors starring with him in ER, none of his co-stars went on to do anything after the show except for Juliana Marguiles who is mostly a TV actress.

He's a pretty good and expressive comedic actor I think.

Leo Dicaprio
Are you also telling us that he was propped up in Blood Diamond by Tits McGee and the black dude from Gladiator? Com on, man.
Leo is legit. People just don't like him because he is a liberal douchebag.
Jesse Eisenberg, on the other hand, has no talent or personality whatsoever and is entirely propped up by his cast mates. At least the others have some appeal that justifies being propped up, but Eisenberg is not interesting in any way.

Exactly this. I only became a Leo fan after Blood Diamond.
If Leo is considered average, I wonder who people consider good?
The Rock, Channing Tatum?? Lol

You are acting like that was his first film..
By the time that came out Leo had already been King of the World for a while. And his performance in Gilbert Grape was awesome, considering his age and experience.

This. You don’t have to like the dude, but to consider him as an average actor is absurd

Good Lord, another thread where the Movie/TV board shits on accomplished actors.
“Overrated!” is overrated.

To be fair, that’s an incredibly juicy role.
Great acting is taking a nothing character/terrible script and breathing life into him/her.
