John "I'm a serious actor now" Krasinski is 100 times worse. At least Novak plays to his strengths and is a writer too.
Probably Michael B. Jordan.
Is it wrong to try hard?

Neither of those guys are as bad as Shai LaBeouf ot James Franko.

I actually like both of those guys, but I agree they are tryhards.

Where's this meme coming from? Do people in the industry talk shit about him? Just curious
>>63007640
no but in podcasts BJ acts like he has the secret formula to success. Him talking seriously about his writing process and how he came of up with his childrens book is the worst.

I think the term is applicable to people who try hard but whose reach exceeds their grasp. So no, it's not bad to try hard, but it is bad to try hard to do something that's out of your depth as a way to appear to have depth.

I don't think they're bad by any means, but they are specifically trying to cultivate an appearance of being great artists, not by making great art with nuance and subtlety, but by using their money to force incredibly artsy projects into the limelight.
