Post William H. Macy, do you like him?

I cannot stand him, well, its not that bad, but he does annoy me, everybody loves him, and i dont see whats so good about him. An example, in Magnolia, his character is meant to be humourous and youre meant to feel sympathy for him, i did not, he did not act it very well.

I think he thinks he is goo because he is diferent from the rest, this isnt always the case, i think he is rubbish. Also he is ugly and strange looking.

I hated him in Jurassic Park III and Magnolia and countless other things ive seen him in. He is annoying in Welcome to Collinwood and The only thing where he was good was Seabiscuit, and that wasnt exactly a big role :razz:

The only reason i wont see The Clearing is because he is in it, because other than that it looks good.

I've found him decent in just about anything I've ever seen him in.

He's passable, I liked him in Fargo but not much else. And I agree, strange looking, but then again I also think Kevin Bacon is pretty weird looking.

He's not in The Clearing. Are you confusing him with Willem Dafoe?

I used to think he's pretty good but he was so irritating in The Cooler and Seabiscuit that I'm starting to get weary of hiim.

Did you see Fargo? He played fantastic in that. Not to mention he does the best he can with typical roles ( like in Cellular )

I like Bill and I loved him in Fargo, a film I didn't really care for.

He's also been great in those Made for TV movies lately.

I love him. Only role I've seen where he was unconvincing was in THE COOLER. He tried to dumb down and it just did not work.
