these hollywood actors are all the same. phonys. why do you think the oscars are allways boring? it`s because they have no script to read by the writers.films will be joining music soon as a declining market due to piracy tactics and will smith may be the last of his kind. a actor who made mega millions.

No one is forcing you to see his movies, You must like attempting suicide.

His movies don't do much for me. I'll watch them, but I don't seek them out. I don't think he has much range, and basically plays the same character over and over.

As far as what he does outside of acting, I don't know. I don't read interviews, I don't watch any interviews, and I don't involve myself with any TMZ-ish type publications.

I hope when he's done acting, he'll finally admit to a "Green Day" work ethic: He does what makes money, why fix what ain't broke?

I like him on-screen. I don't know how he is in real life, but I'd probably have something of an ego too if I were lauded as the most bankable actor in the world. YOU try not letting that get to your head. He makes a mediocre film watchable, and sometimes enjoyable, so that makes him alright with me.

Never liked him as an actor, so I've never seen any of his movies.

I'm pretty sure that Will Smith doesn't care that you like him or not.

Do you mean whether or not? Who are you talking to?

He was great in 6 Degrees of Kevin Bacon...

will smith can be over the top and obnoxious.

but i enjoy his movies, and he seems to be a pretty nice guy.

so i guess i'm a fan and can stand the egomaniac.

Will brings the entertainment, regardless of his IRL personality.

And invisiblegt brings the low chuckles, channeling Stewie Griffin or whatever he's doing.

I really don't understand where the Will Smith hate is coming from. Is this dvdtalk being elitist again? Just because he's mainstream, it must be cool to talk crap on him.

If you watch behind the scenes in any of his movies, he's a pretty down to earth guy. He's always involved with the production crew, doesn't seem like a dick at all.

If you think Ali was boring, is that really his fault or the director, Michael Mann? Mann made another borefest called Miami Vice.

I thought Smith was great in I Am Legend but overall the movie sucked. So he makes movies that are mediocre, but why the hate? Some of you guys sound like he raped your childhood(that should only go to Lucas :saber: )
