[@christopherleung4236]

Is the narrator dashstar????

[@chrisriley9520]

Hi

[@ianbotello3950]

Looper PLEASE make video about Matthew broderick

[@shepp765]

you forgot the one where reeves plays the buddha in the little Buddha

[@arnoldmanuel3311]

Really? You guys didn't add Sophia Copula from God Father III? Are you fucking kidding me.

[@troymcclure8931]

I think Wiley perfectly captured the young teenage boy cliche with his constant nose grabs and playing with his hair.

[@bobkippuz]

Nah it was shit

[@Butt--Head]

R u serious?

[@420simpson]

The Dazed and Confused acting doesn't bother me. It comes off as a genuinely socially awkward teen trying to talk to a girl.

[@buckfuttler2877]

and most of them had never acted before....

[@StijnRoelands]

thank you

[@deltahomicide9300]

That's exactly how my nephew acts when we make fun of him

[@ProbablyOkay]

Agreed. I noticed it but it made sense to me

[@bjnichs03]

Agreed. His acting is awkward but it completely fits his character whether on purpose or not. Great movie!

[@Erinski]

I think Wiley Wiggins should be excused from this list. Constant awkward tics (like hair straightening and hover hands while posing for pics) are the norm for kids that age, especially when they're trying to fit in with the older kids. It's a self-conscious age where you're suddenly hyper-aware that you don't know wtf you should be doing with your hands.

[@buckfuttler2877]

and he had NEVER acted before

[@josephdockemeyer6782]

I think his greatest discomfort came from knowing that, in reality, cool and older guys would never ask a kid along.

[@AnthonyCarrera]

I was literally just watching Dazed & Confused last night and I wouldn't say anyone did any bad acting in there and honestly thats probably more or less exactly what an awkward teen would do anyways.

[@kadijaesther1808]

Ok see that's what I was thinking. Dude acted exactly like a young teen trying to act cool for the bigger kids and pretty well failing xD

[@paulcostley6800]

that scene from Seven is one of the best scenes in movie history. No one has ever said that was bad acting. If anything that is some of the best acting ever.

[@roguecactus7]

Paul Costley I think it's one of those moments where you feel more than one emotion at once? Like, how the fuck does anyone know what finding the head of your pregnant wife feels like?! 😆

[@misslissy7795]

I agree it was a great scene, almost flawless. Well executed. I don't understand why it's on this list, I'm definitely dazed and confused ;)

[@bazinga743]

Paul Costley WHATS IN THE BOX

[@MultiAlanR]

I actually thought it was the best part of the movie, this cocky young cop probably more scared than he ever was in his life.

[@maddog7999]

Alex Robertson yeah? and the simpsons must be a live action masterpiece in your mind.

[@kab4292]

Are you kidding....the "What's in the box" scene was greatness. In Dazed and Confused I always thought the nose grabs were just awkward teenage boy fumbling. I felt it worked for the scene.

[@MeerkatChris]

....Not sure if it was just me, but I've always found Bratt Pitt in that finale to Se7en brilliant. I always thought he was believable and it always came across as genuine to me.

[@tiaaaron3278]

His facial expression and body language were great but it's the awful way he delivers the lines that ruin it.

[@frankmerker630]

i would argue the opposite, the complaints that people have with his acting have more to do with how his character was written. Having a really petulant character is easy to perceive as bad acting when everyone else is written as mature, cool, and calculated

[@kharilane1340]

Brad Pitt's reaction in Se7en was PERFECT!!!

[@jayrocca7559]

"What's in the box?!!!"

[@DavidPirez]

Totally disagree with Brad Pitt's inclusion. He kills in that scene.

[@Harkness78]

Pitt is fine at the end of Seven, that's exactly how his character would react, and you fast edited it to make the boxes come faster than they did in the movie.

[@thisinhumanplace2037]

"The least researched bad acting list in KZbin history" lol

[@StijnRoelands]

true as fuck haha

[@davidswanson5669]

Also 50% of it was not even crucial “set up” for the scene in question. He filled it with fluff for the sake of talking about the movie.

[@eldasfrogs22]

What!??!?!? Seven???? That scene was amazing!!!! You should've just chose all the scenes from the room

[@Robert99909]

Agreed

[@creehampton6944]

Sofie Ammari why ew

[@jzkng2]

I did not hit her, I did naaht !! Oh hi mark :)

[@psychclone]

How's your sex life?

[@nimbxs]

YOU ARE TEARING ME APART LISA!

[@NICK666565]

Beatriz Pinto oh hi doggy

[@jackedtherippedraperakasca9470]

hahaha, what a story mark

[@davidmsirois]

naaht instead of naught... he's not from Southie lol ;)

[@The_Notorious_N.O.E.]

Nope, SEVEN was awesome, beginning to end. How would you've reacted in the place of Brad Pitt's character?

[@lubbi0156]

How the fuck was that bad acting in seven?

[@Psychol-Snooper]

So you thought the meme was for..... good acting? XD

[@joeyclemenza7339]

Theo Germander the fact that everyone has their own imitation of that box scene? That tells you that it was laughably exaggerated

[@mizusecond]

Angry Applesauce another famous meme is rose pushing jack from that door in titanic. but i guess that´s for bad acting too? oh and the joker are u serious meme, very bad acting indeed.

[@nelisezpasce]

Only when you close your eyes and hear the "aww what's in the box?". It's a strange effect.

[@newthrash1221]

Theo Germander It was honestly funnier than it was anything else. So yeah, if there was a good portion of the audience that found the scene funny at all, it was probably very over acted.

[@Possi_ball]

Most of the list is crap. Seven?? Keanu in a movie so good, nobody cared about his accent? Someone touching his nose? 4 weddings?? A kid could find 20 scenes worst than these, it's like you are trolling us. I guess the amount of dislikes proves it.

[@Psychol-Snooper]

Bad acting is a sign of a systemic failure in a movie, but in almost every situation the director is to blame.

[@resseddep1077]

Angry Applesauce yeah some of these are bc of the script

[@Psychol-Snooper]

@Jus tin Source material, script, casting, meddling/incompetent producers, studio interference and editing. A good and famous director should be able to overcome any of these. Terry Gilliam is a good example of a director who would go to war with anyone and everyone for his vision. :)

[@kristent225]

Agreed. People want to focus on Michael Gambon's inaccurate portrayal of Dumbledore but the director and screen writers both could've told him he was playing him too aggressively in the first couple movies and didn't. Maybe he finally read the books and saw how calm Dumbledore truly is and changed up his portrayal since he was much better in the last few movies.

[@Psychol-Snooper]

@Kristen T I've not read the series, but I'm curious as to whether the Hogwarts students were scared of Dumbledore books (eg the headmaster/principle trope).

[@NostalgiNorden]

or the editor....and behind that the studio

[@alyshacampbell1767]

I think Brad Pitt did a marvelous job. That scene gets me every time.

[@lauriedavies6183]

You're obviously a critic that has no familiarity with what constitutes bad acting. Pitt was fantastic in Se7en. You're comparing Stewart's response with the response in the book as if the director didn't play a role in that scene, or as if any movie ever matches the book it's made after word for word. Your criticism is the equivalent of saying Jack Nicholson's a "bad actor" based on the sole premise that Kubrick's creative license with "The Shining" didn't adhere to King's book. That logic is absurd. The scene in "Dazed and Confused" was down to directing, a responsibility the director acknowledges. That fact aside, people do have nervous ticks. The kid was nervous in the scene. The frequent nose grabs, though annoying as most nervous ticks usually are, had no affect whatsoever on pulling my mind out of the story as bad acting would do. As for any other criticism you may've offered, I can't say... cause I stopped watching this shit 5 minutes in.

[@luxtenebrae3056]

Laurie Davies Sudocrem's good for a sore arse...

[@qr5393]

Laurie Davies Stewart is a bad actor in general though and a movie based off poorly written books doesn't help either.

[@lauriedavies6183]

Well, Frank Drebbin, far be it from me to argue with an obvious expert on having a "sore arse" considering you're so instantly prepared with advice. I guess you won't be needing me to tell you where to shove the Sudocrem, eh?

[@_atinsy]

damn right, this list is b.s i'm pretty sure there's plenty of other examples of bad acting

[@tiaaaron3278]

Pitt ruined the final scene in Seven with his pathetic like delivery. Awful.

[@jurassicpark5502]

What about:''You're tearing me apart Lisa''or ''That's bullshit i did not hit her i did nhat'' :D

[@AtheistOrphan]

Jurassic Park - Oh hi mark.

[@josephdockemeyer6782]

You're tearing me APAAAARRRT!!! lol

[@AB-xx4hu]

Are you fucking kidding me? Brad Pitts Reaction in the Final minutes of Se7en is great. How the fuck should react like? Especially since Freemans character starts acting weird, why should he give him the gun? Whats in the fuckin box? After all those days of trying to catch this Psycho Murder John Doe and finally having the oppurtunity to put him into Prison he is just psyched up. You put that scene into the Video but leave the atrocious acting from Jaden Smith in After Earth? Are you fucking serious?

[@Gamersnostalgia0]

Whats in the boooooooooox

[@andreitan8479]

TheAdam 98 In all fairness...they would have difficulty just picking one scene for the video out of that film

[@84blizzle]

TheAdam 98 It's because these are bad acting scenes in good movies, that's why they stand out. Honestly, it's a KZbin video, relax it's not that serious.

[@3lements]

Wrath means "extreme anger" the purpose was to juxtapose the calm demeanor of Somerset and John Doe across from the rage and loss of Mills. If Brad Pitt played it calm it wouldnt have expressed the sin of Wrath, which is what Detective Mills devolves into by this part of the scene.

[@AngelWings-r4v]

Loop has lost some credibility with me.

[@michaelanthony4042]

The scene from SE7EN was awesome wtf are you talking about...

[@Diana-whathappenedin97]

Ikr! I looks confusing if you didn't watch the movie, but it was an emotional break of the whole movie and was brilliantly acted(although, I'm not a big fan of Pitt, but this and Fight Club prove me why he's so famous)

[@romeoelopez24]

Se7en???? Go home Looper, you're drunk! This was a great scene, great performance, what are you talking about??

[@PaulRezaei]

I think Brad Pitt's reaction in Seven is one of the best acted scenes in movies.

[@cosmicphoto05]

Brad Pitt's reaction was spot on; it was totally consistent with his character. It may have seemed over the top, but imagine coming to the slow realization that the love of your life and your unborn child have been murdered by the villain you're chasing, and that it was personal. It's understandable that he would have gone crazy.

[@katiebailey4430]

How is Brad Pitt in this list? That scene was acted PERFECTLY!!!

[@nathanjones8475]

How is the room not on here

[@katea2046]

Nathan Jones it wasn't a big production movie

[@joeyclemenza7339]

Nathan Jones noticed the theme? With the exception of Gigli and Twilight (the latter having box office success), these were all critically acclaimed movies with bad acting scenes. That's why the room isn't on here. And yeah, varsity blues wasn't exactly a masterpiece, though it too also enjoyed a cult following in its afterlife.

[@Luneland]

Nathan Jones It's not true I did not her I did naht.

[@user-lh7uf8vk4d]

Wasn't the room nominated for an oscar?

[@TheJohannesH]

YOU'RE TEARING ME APART LISA!!!

[@euthirox1]

Nonsense .That scene from Seven is acted perfectly.

[@fictionroast]

Brad Pitt really? James Franco? Huh?

[@sagefoole]

The only thing I have ever seen Kristen Stewart act well in was "Zathura." In this film she did what she does best; stood like a statue because her character was frozen. Her acting can best be described as wooden and flat. "What's in the booooooooooooooxxxx????" Yeah, fair enough. I never did like his delivery there, especially since he did so well in the rest of the film. Reeves took himself far too seriously as Jonathan Harker, I thought it was a pretty great film but Reeves worked to hard at it. Franco is just weird. Didn't see the rest...

[@jaredsheetz7612]

The scene from se7en was actually accurate. Everyone deals with shock in different ways. After all the circumstances that character went through, it would be difficult for anyone to cope with.

[@noahheninger]

This list was being purposefully controversial. There are so many more obvious examples than these.

[@anthonymtz1890]

I think Brad was doing a great job. He was supposed to be acting in disbelief or in (playful manor)

[@FingerGunProductions]

He was not playing in a playful manor at all.

[@justinchan5649]

I thought the acting was great in this scene. It portrays disbelief, confusion and anger when they are mixed together. Wanting to know yet not wanting.

[@johntuohy]

Totally agree with the Brad Pitt selection, the guy over acts so much he takes away from any natural flow of the scene, just a cringeworthy distraction, I would also like to submit his scene from Troy, where he is calling out hector, painful, and makes a farce of the subsequent scenes.

[@brianbriggs6479]

That kid was the best part of dazed!.

[@Katie_Woo]

my bf saw dracula for the first time a few months ago and his mouth fell open and his eyes slid to me and asked ''is this serious or a comedy that missed the mark?'' from keanu's accent to winona ryders accent to sadie frost chewing the scenery off like it held the secrets to life, even richard e grant was hamming it up to the tenth power- he turned it off after the warewolf got barebacking sadie frost and sat silent fro a few seconds before bursting out laughing

[@ianmacfarlane1241]

Brad Pitt in 'Seven' - really, you've lost me on that one.

[@JudgeLeiter40]

Its kind of funny that a video thats about painful acting and line delivery, features a narrator that painfully delivers awkward jokes.

[@thedaegiovanni]

i didn't think Franco's work was bad at all...

[@71meshuggah]

Um...what? Putting the acting of Seven and Dazed N' Confused with Gigli and anything Keanu was a bad idea, wasn't it? The only bad acting I see is the video narrator acting like he knows what bad acting is.

[@ashylarrymp]

No, Dazed and Confused was a fine scene.

[@abdelilahelhassani2356]

ARE YOU SERIOUS!!!!!!! last scene of SEVEN was amazing!!! for years I've been screaming: "WHAT'S IN THE BOX"

[@joegosling6353]

I understand your reasoning for almost all of these. The one I have a little problem with is the Brad Pitt one. I really dont understand the critique on that one, always thought it was one of his most powerful performances. Especially when hes fighting the urge to kill the guy, the look in his eyes. He was totally lost in the character in that moment.

[@THX11458]

Seriously!!?? This is what Looper thinks are the worst acted scenes of all time - clearly the people working there have never actually seen bad acting - (Tommy Wiseau in The Room anyone?)

[@buddyollie7400]

🖕 seven was awesome!!

[@KevinIsrael]

A lot of this was bad script writing and directing over bad acting.

[@arcanesiren629]

How come Sofia Coppola's acting in the Godfather III isn't listed?

[@tucs1973]

"with due respect to Brad Pitt"? Brad Pitt is not a good actor! Yeah some may love him when he's shirtless and shooting guns, but he's not a good actor. Tell me: When was the last time you saw him deliver a line that made you gasp, like Tom Hanks has done many, many times? Never, that's when!

[@NummyMuffin333]

"They're eating her, and then they're going to eat me. Oh my goooooooooood"

[@melvincollins8104]

I would take a bad American actor over the recent flow of British and Australian actors. Most of the bad actors listed here still had good to decent movies. Most likely because Americans are easy to relate to. The worst actors they have cost Hollywood a ton of money have been Henry Cavill, and the British actors from GOT. Sophie Turner is the worst actress on planet earth. Jon Snow and Emilia Clarke can't act unless they play some boring British character.

[@BamaLam4]

This was the last straw, you did it Looper, you broke the back. Goodbye.

[@VampireMadonna]

So much of this is nit-picking. There are endless terrible movies to choose from and far worse performances yet THESE are the "worst" in history? Talk about an exaggeration.

[@erickpalacios7299]

Are you kidding me? the what's in the box scene? that was AMAZING, i loved how Pitt did that scene, and you put it in the list of worst acted scenes in movie history when you obviously overlooked The Room? come on guys, i love your channel but i think you made a mistake here.

[@jonathan45278]

Sorry but I have to agree with most of the comments here. I think your other observations were spot on. Brad Pitt's performance was, I believe, consistant with the film. Maybe you should have provided an example of how you think he should have acted. I suppose hypothetically, if there were other actors performing the role, they may have done it differently.

[@mrtjwitdabs6949]

Who else thought it was a girl in the thumbnail?

[@azraelsylarin]

Slayman Al-Ghanim I honestly did

[@kckurbtt7]

I did dude I was like wtf

[@nikhilsrl]

I did and I have seen guys with long hair

[@blz4849]

SKILL3D-HD wait it isnt?

[@nathannathan5735]

People who haven't seen dazed and confused

[@bluesunrise8007]

people pretend like it easy.. but in reality, actings hard harsh and in all honesty (coming from a director) is one of the most transparent things people can do. they're putting their ego, soul, and self on the line for everyone to judge in each and every scene. I think in general we forget to give people credit for that.

[@johnh5184]

Looper, you're out of your loopy minds criticizing Pitt in Seven. His reaction was spot on PERFECT for the hot-headed, immature, rookie detective that the movie established. It's his behavior regarding the box that gives the scene so much weight as it's contrasted with John Doe and Morgan Freeman and the movie's entire set-up for that moment. The good, yet immature detective got unwittingly played. And his response makes you almost like the horrorific John Doe. It's actually a brilliant contrast.

[@maxis2k]

As usual, these absolutists compilation lists are totally off the mark. Any Hallmark movie ever made would be worse than the examples on this list. Or a host of B movies from the 1970s. Or even a lot of huge budget A movies. Hell, you like to mention Star Wars so much yet you didn't mention Episode I?

[@hmmm9658]

I never thought that what's in the box was bad

[@jaymkuhl]

The nose grabs became iconic in a way, though 😂😂😂

[@67maxfield]

although it is contrived in plenty of ways, i feel pitt captured the essence of how brutal and surreal that experience would be. i think pitt conveys the sickening feeling/reality sinking in in a really particular and peculiar way which succeeds. i love that scene and think it works perfectly for the movie. its also iconic in spite of its faults as well. in a good way.

[@gurujot951]

I didn't agree with a lot of this list. You put in some nit-picky bad examples when there are so many good examples out there.

[@azuregiant9258]

The only one I disagree with here is Brad Pitt's performance in Seven. Maybe slightly over done, but he still connected through all the right emotions. I've only just learned about the supposed meme. I just find that annoying. It seems anything that is even just slightly over done, or slightly irregular has a meme made about it.

[@tomkohls2215]

I can only agree with Vanderbeeks accent and Franco's overdone surprise and comic villainous reaction. Otherwise,...I've seen much worse. Pitt's reaction was a bit strange maybe,but memorable and I'm not sure the whines in his pleading wouldn't be pretty real as he seems to horrifically consider the possibilities. The nose toucher,well it seemed like a real geek moment and I think the directing was more the fault there. In fact editing and directing could be,NO is a big part in all but Reeves accent. That's on him. But I still like what he is good at. He was miscast. Not everyone is a Spacey,Dinnero,or Pacino...lol....prob our 3 greatest living actors. And even Spacey has his awkward moments. And if my friends see this comment about Spacey I'm in trouble. Lol..Respectfully

[@garpikemike1]

I thought Pitt did a great job at the end of Seven. Js

[@MilosMandic1987]

No Gal Gadot's perfomance in, well any movie?

[@Demetri_Challow]

I did not see Tommy Wiseau in this video. I did NAHT. You're tearing me apart, Looper!

[@oriolesfan61]

Pitt's performance was excellent. You're crazy.

[@modemmack]

The list is bullshit without the inclusion on Tommy Wiseau and most of the actors from The Room. The movie is so laugh/cringe inducing that you could get 6 pack abs from watching it every other day.

[@adiahaalexander9359]

DUDE! This is your list for worst acted scenes *OF* *ALL* *TIME?* You must not have seen very many movies. Where's: The Room Troll 2 Birdemic 1&2 Samurai Cop Hollywood big budget movies: Wicker man (Nicholas Cage) Star Wars Episode One (young Annakin) Jupiter Rising Oz The Great and Powerful

[@jay_b6579]

Brad Pitts reaction in seven is epic your trippin......

[@mikehoncho9759]

im so glad someone put that dazed and confused scene in there. I watched the movie a few weeks ago, and I kept thinking how annoying he was as a character. I really didnt get the nose grab thing either.

[@turbogeek.421]

WTF are you on about with Seven?! Great scene!

[@allanhindmarch7323]

Wow, I think you were pretty hard on some of those movies. Judging by your detailed criticisms of these I would assume you are a seasoned actor, so I reckon your roles would have been much better, obviously. What are the movies you have been in? I would love to see your work.

[@AllThingsFilm1]

Your opinions in this are so overly self-righteous, it's obvious to me that you would make a horrible film critic. Referencing Rotten Tomatoes as if it's a reliable source for criticism further weakens your credibility. Most film critics are clearly failed screenwriters, or people who are incapable of getting any level of attention any other way. Loopy would be a better name for your channel. Seriously.

[@luxtenebrae3056]

VFX Todd whilst you were rushing to discredit every film critic ever, in case they say something you don't agree with, you failed to notice that the guy disagreed with Rotten Tomatoes...

[@AllThingsFilm1]

Still, quoting Rotten Tomatoes is like quoting Donald Trump on how to treat women. Film critics are individuals. Not scientists. Giving film critics any credibility above the expression of an individual's opinion is dishonest at best. There are very few film critics I've seen in my 58 years who have anything more to offer than a glorified opinion. Most film critics bring personal baggage to their reviews. You can almost smell it.

[@AllThingsFilm1]

I agree about Jack Black. He was a horrible choice for King Kong. Rotten Tomatoes stature is really a recent development. And it's an undeserved development.

[@jasonpeters9865]

"Se7en" ending to this very day is still imo best ending of alltime

[@stephensimons657]

Seven, a scene ruiner? What in the hell are you talking about. That was a very powerful scene, and Pitt nailed it. That role made him a superstar. And judging from the majority of the comments, I'm not wrong for saying that. Let's see you act that scene.

[@retroman3075]

I don't think these are poorly acted scenes. Try watching Tommy Wiseau's The Room.

[@raymondarmatino1829]

Are you kidding me. Seven had a great ending with Brad Pitt nailing the scene with perfection. Also you cant diss Varsity Blues

[@delsinrowe2014]

No scenes from The Room?! YOU'RE TEARING ME APART, LOOPER!!!

[@johnjdrew]

This channel seems to focus way to much on negative subjects. Why hollywood won't cast & worst of lists seem to pop up frequently. I wish looper much success but i can't help but feel the content is nitpicking and overly judgmental. But then again who am i to judge i came back to this video only to cast judgment and give a one-sided opinion..... ain't that some shit.

[@KvGKvG-ud7hl]

If Jennifer Lopez tell's me it's turkey time gobble gobble...I'm pulling out the bib.

[@LindsayWashburn]

Brad Pitt in Se7en has absolutely no place on this list.

[@captiongeeza]

The title of this review should be 'The worst review in history of The Worst Acted Scenes In Movie History'

[@SamsoniteProductions]

If the legendary Tommy Wiseau isn't on here I'm gonna scream

[@RhodieSlayer]

stop . james franco scene was fine

[@flowerpower2726]

love the nose grabs in dazed and confused. one of my favorite scenes in the movie.

[@byProvings]

I don't know about that Seven one...

[@WritingGeekNL]

THE ROOM HAS TO BE ON THIS LIST!

[@Armyballer48]

you blew it with this one... "thumbs down"

[@adamcarter6862]

The nose grabs were okay, if you've ever been a teenage boy trying to talk to girls it happens.

[@ScottKJolicoeur]

Is this dash star?

[@ScottKJolicoeur]

Dash Star Aye I love your videos!

[@fjccommish]

The narrator is awful. Odd he's criticizing other people's bad acting.

[@WickedDealer]

Mitch was the worst character in that film, at least he got a hardcore ass beating in that film.

[@gushutchinson8758]

Glad others are sticking up for Brad!... He was brilliant in that scene... We would ALL behave like Brad if the love of our lifes head was the package... Would you be more relaxed and sanguine on such a horrific realisation? He had to play insane... Most people would never recover their sanity... I definitely felt empathy... and the despairing awkward moment for his colleagues was palpable... Think again as if the head was your truelove?!?!

[@scottk1525]

Don't just complain about the Se7en scene. Make sure to dislike this video as well.

[@Exerus]

How dare you say "whats in the box" is a scene ruiner, that perfectly conveyed the emotion of a person who has no control over his emotions, mixed with the fact that Doe is getting into his head about his wife.

[@ozballz8333]

WHAT'S IN THE BOXXXXXX!

[@Psychol-Snooper]

It was Marsellus Wallace's soul.

[@AnnaBearX5]

what's in the box is epic! We say it so often when opening packages that our kids now say it without any idea where it comes from.
