View Full Version : Other actors/actresses with similar talent to Justin...

I know I have asked about other characters you like in addition to Reese- I specifically mentioned Karen Walker from Will & Grace.

Now for the other side of that question- kind of related, but I think it could be answered differently- you might like a certain character, but you may not necessarily think that the actor/actress portraying that character might fit into this category-

What other actors/actresses have you seen play either a developing character through a series well, or what other actors/actresses have you seen be able to portray many different characters well?

I was watching the movie Heartbreakers on TV yesterday, and Sigourney Weaver came to mind... she played the lead in that SO well, and in that movie, her character has to take on many other sub-roles as the part of the criminal seductress in addition to the part of her actual character.

Another one I like for his ability to play a character very similar to Reese (in a much different capacity) is Ashton Kutcher, and I am thinking specifically of That 70's Show. He has the unique ability to deliver lines so well- much like Justin- and he also is able to use his body and physical space to accent the crazy character "Kelso".

What do you think?

to be totally honest i dont think anyone will match justins acting standards :) however if i was to choose another actress it would be sarah michelle gellar or eliza dushku, because they both can act serious and silly roles really well :)

on the Tonight Show, they poweder Leno's face durring breaks, and have an exact time to start the next segment back up, and they even have a mug for the celebrity and a mug for Leno and I think they have their names on them... That show is just ran a little too perfect for me, lol

I just realized, Justin i think has not gotten the recognition he deserves. I mean, you never see him talked about on entertainment shows and have not been on major talk shows like The Tonight Show. If random audience members doing silly tricks can be on The Tonight Show, I think Justin can. Maybe it is just he has not done any acting other then MITM? maybe if he is in a movie he will be on those shows?

If he goes on a show like that, I will go to the taping. He should go on Jimmy Kimmel Live since I have not attended that show yet and its my favorite, but I have been to The Tonight Show and I think it is way to organized, lol.. I want a more relaxing experience attending a taping of a show.
I totally agree with you Alex. I don't think Justin hasn't gotten the recognition that he deserves. I'm wondering if perhaps with his new J2 project about the Jerry Garcia biopic, he will make the talk show circuit once that get's going. Or also, if this turns out to be the final year for MITM, it would be cool if the whole cast makes some talk show appearances towards April/May of next year. :)

I agree completely, but let me play devil's advocate too...

What if Justin is content with the amount of recognition he gets simply because he is who he is? I guess what I am thinking is maybe it's more of a calculated move than we realize? Speculation I know, but it was something I was thinking...

EMINEM!!!!!

he sings and acts
he can be caring or destructive
angry or loving

people can say alot about him, yet that makes him stronger and more successful!!

yeah!!
eminem!

also talia shire and rose mcgowan and nicole ritchie!!
he has a new song, "When I'm Gone" on his new greatest hits cd, Curtin Call. Which descibes EXACTLY what you are saying, caring or destructive, angry or loving. :D

It is a song about him killing his evil seond personality 'Slim Shady' becuase he was not giving time to his daughter and his daughter told him to stop saying the things he says in songs, and when he was in a concert in some place like Sweeden she followeed him all the way, and she is in the audience screaming at him to please stop and that he cares more about his fans then his family. Afterwards he shoots himself backstage, but really it is symbolizing him getting rid of 'Slim Shady' and going back to 'Marshal Matters', he ends up in a heven-like dream of him pushing his daughter on a swing with his ex-wife there with him and they are all smiling.

There is a video of this too, the video and song is on Eminem.com

I guess Eminem has a split personality, Marshal Matters the family man and Slim Shady the curising rapper.

definetly, i mean justin is only 19!!! well almost 20, but i think personally sometimes a little fame is better than alot, otherwise justin might get over presurred, i think justin has the right amount of himself in the public eye. i mean, his personal life isnt all over the front of every newspaper like whats hes doing 24/7, but then we still hear about his upcoming projects and generous acts :D to me thats just right

thats always why his music draws your attention, and the fect that the issues he deals with in his life is projected onto his music.
his other songs lik kim, which is kinda aggressive is so real based and thats why i think i have so much admiraton for him.
i hope that he is making the right choice for himself, as his influence on the music scene has changed society and the way many people criticise it!!

EMINEM rocks!!

that song hits a person, and makes them think,
im really gonna miss his powerful statements on life
which i think kinda tyes in JUSTIN!!

Exactly. I was watching the clips of him on the talk shows on his site again this morning, and I was reminded of that... It's clear to see that he is SO sweet and kind and gentle- and GENUINE. Not only that, he has got to be one of the most articulate interview subjects I have ever seen...

yeah your right, If I was Justin I would be satisfied about the position I am and would not want to be a spoiled snobby big celebrity all of the sudden, the best way to being in the public's eye is slowly, otherwise you are like Paris Hilton and become just some fad that wore away.

eminem is one of the best selling rappers .. ever. he deserves so much respect from what he`s done! he`s always going to be like a role model to me because pretty much every song he has EVER put out becomes a 1# hit. it show`s alot and he deserves everything he gets. i think he will be one to go down in history. he`s changed the respect people have for rap (in a good way) and also showed he can act ; )
