Who? oh Heath Ledger.
Besides the joker did he do anything else memorable?

Meh.

I don't know, i always get the feel that he is still him playing the part, i think he is an amazing actor but i never forget that he is DiCaprio.

I've always thought DDL's characters from There Will Be Blood and Gangs of NY are played by some other actor. I like him in the make-up way better than without it.

It's not the greatest movie of all time, but if you don't count that as one of DDL's greatest performances, I don't know what to say to you.

His performance carried the film so hard. He was incredible.

>>71939549
Mendehlson's shitty outside his native accent.
>>
>>71939268
he didn't have many roles but Gandolfini sounded and acted nothing like Soprano. I think you may have some stereotypes about Italians desu.
>>
>>71940784
so are 4 or 5 of these guys >>71939640
>>
>>71940951

In True Romance he's virtually the same character so it's understandable that he acts that way.

Cranston has always acted the same way, and now that he's being cast in so much shit, everyone gets to see it.
>>
>>71939167

Tilda Swinton

Vin Diesel

Clive Owen

Viggo Goddamn Mortenson

I'd wager most "famous" actors do this for 1 big movie, and then they never catch it again, but make movies for a few years and then fade off.

Some of the best have played the same part/role over and over, just different iterations, like a Ray Liotta type.

Heith Ledger as Joker.
It was probably the Joker who actually killed Heath Ledger. The character consumed his mind so much it killed him.
>>
>>71939482
For me its his voice. Way too distinct for me to lose track of him in the role.

I have the same problem with Bryan Cranston whenever he's bald/wears glasses now. Drive? no problem. Trumbo? Literally season 1 Walter.

No, it was drugs, stop romanticizing shit.

Oh also that faggot from Tron Legacy, On The Road, Troy, Death Sentence, Pan. Not always at his best but he has full on chameleon abilities.

Gary Oldman

>>71939167
Bryan Cranston has no fucking range.

2 seasons of breaking bad he was stuck in Malcom Dad role. Season 3 he finally "breaks bad" by shaving his head and sometime talking with a scary voice. Every role he does now is the Breaking Bad voice, with the exception of Trumbo which was just plain terrible acting.

The guy is a decent director, but man he is an aweful actor.

You could argue Pacino and DeNiro. Though they're not as committed as they once were.

i fucking hate there will be blood and i hate that actor
his accent was fucking awful
he couldnt fulfill the physical requirements of the role and barely could scramble around when he was required to
he looked like an old man from the start
his acting was piss poor
he always acts the same way in everything he does too

Also I think this discussion is mostly about modern actors, becuase first of all I don't think the average /tv/ pleb watches movies from before the 80s. Rod Setiger would another good choice anyway.
