Was Phillip Seymour Hoffman the greatest actor of his generation?
abso
lutely
>>63463061
fuck no, faggot.
>>63463061
he had one of the best drug stashes of his generation.
>>63463102
Who then? He's definitely at the top.
He was very good, I'm sad we won't See More Hoffman
>>63463061
Holy shit
He looks like a fat Matt Damon
It's uncanny

Yeah, he was one of them certainly. Lot of GOAT performances.
>>63463135
I don't even see how this meme is funny tbvh
>>63463061
No. Maybe Daniel Day Lewis? Tom Hanks?
>>63463061
I don't know what counts as his generation but he's probably top 10 if not top 5.

It's a goddamn shame his last film had to be fucking Hunger Games
>>63463330
It doesn't have to be.
With the power of CGI we can resurrect anyone.
>>63463372
Even my mom?
>>63463372
Anyone?
>>63463422
No, you FUCK, we only care about famous people.
>>63463190
I agree those are contenders, but I wouldn't say they are definitively better than Hoffman
>>63463800
My mom was Anna Nicole Smith
I'm also dead
>>63463061
He was good in Boogie Nights desu
>>63463061
He is possibly GOAT in all supporting roles, honestly i find it hard watching a movie with him in a lead
>>63463870
Yeah like i wanna love synecdoche new york because its an original idea from a great screen writer which I think deserves credit and he is fine in it but i think it with a few tweaks it could have been GOAT, god im hyped for Anomilisa
What made him great was that he put himself in very vulnerable humiliating positions. He had no problem playing a loser jerking off. Bearing his soul to everyone like that takes some balls. He was an intense actor. I miss the pig fuck.

I want this please...

true story:
I was in extra in two of the hunger games movies. I passed by PSH multiple times just weeks before his death.
He was pale as a ghost, seemed out of energy, and overall seemed really down.
Occasionally though he would crack these really dry jokes that were funny. Like one day we were doing the bunker scene and before the camera rolls he looks at one of the extras sitting at the computer and goes, "hey on this next take, I want you to look at the camera as you are pushing buttons and go, 'beep, boop, beep, bop, pew, pew'".
He seemed like a rad dude, with guts. but he did NOT like being famous.
and to answer your question OP, yeah i think he's definitely the best of 90's/00's
>>63465320
oh, also.
after the take ended, he looked at that same extra and said, "you didn't fucking do it!?"
we all had a good laugh.
every movie he's in he steals the show
he has like maybe 10 minutes of screen time in punch drunk love but he completely stole that movie from sandler, which is also sandler's best acting job in his entire career

Honestly is there any movie that had better acting than The Master?
>>63463986
Same poster, as an aside you can tell he is having so much fucking fun in Mission Imposible 3, not as much and Jeremy Irons in DnD tho, don't think I've seen an actor relish a role so over the top before
>>63465077
Same poster here, in what way? are you saying already GOAT and im wrong? I mean to basically call someone stupid for giving there opinion without giving any counter evidence kinda of makes yous a dick and undermines your stance, however if you a have an opinion with evidence I'm always keen to listen and change my mind based of facts presented.
>>63463284
Does Jesse Plemons have the greatest track record of any actor to date? Seriously, everything I've seen with this guy from 2012 onwards has been fantastic.
>>63463986
most of the problems in synecdoche are from kaufman's amateurish directing job
he's a great script and story writer, obviously, but his directing is just not good. he should have just given the screenplay to spike jonze and let him direct it, those two work extremely well together
>>63465510
You think this is /debate/, nigger?
You have wrong opinions.
He fucking LOVED cigarettes. Like more tha his family or food. Cigarettes were his favorite thing until PTA made him relapse on heroin. Even then when they found his corpse he had a cigarette in his mouth.

it really makes me sad that i'll never get to hear this guy yell again, he had a great yelling pissed off voice.
>>63465587
What about Battleship?
>>63463061
Yes Dude, he was.
>>63463061
>I'm a huge pleb and have only ever seen Jewlywood productions
Lol, open your fucking eyes to something beyond your mainstream garbage.
>>63465883
such as?
>>63464164
This. He played very uncomfortable roles that most actors would avoid, and he played them well. I can only imagine the personal demons he was dealing with that caused him to OD on herion, benzos, coke, and meth.
>>63464164
You talking about his character in Happiness?
I'd kill myself if I looked like him.
>>63465590
Okay, thank you, see i come here to learn and I appreciate and explanation or flip side as to why im wrong or others disagree, and he is an amazing writer, i really wanted to love the film but something about it held me back unlike the mentally retarded
>>63465591
I wasn't looking for a debate, I was looking for someone else opinion, I was going to argue it, sort of makes you seem even more retarded.
>>63463297
Owning Mahowny is so fuggin underrated jezoz chraist
>>63463061
Best supporting actor maybe, he's always way better as a supporting actor.
>>63466064
Canadian cinema is ignored by hollywood but we make good films mostly with a lot less money.
>>63466097
Lol. John Cazale was the best actor of the 70s and was just a supporting actor.
>>63466232
John Cazale and Meryl Streep were madly in love right up until the end. They could have a modern day Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn.

>he didn't list Charlie Wilson's War
