Who are the most underrated actors?

Posted: 06 Apr 2012 10:58 AM PDT

I find that a lot of great actors are underrated because of some poor movie choices or just because they have been in too many "mainstream movies".

Some of my picks are:

Tom Cruise - He gets a bad rep because of his eccentric personality and that people think he is a very one-dimensional actor. But I would say that no one plays a better "action hero" than he does. He was hilarious in Tropic Thunder and I am excited to see him in Rock of Ages

Nicholas Cage - He is incredibly talented and versatile, yet he has really ruined his image. Sure he has been in some terrible movies with some horrendous scripts, but if you focus on his gems you can really appreciate his talent. I don't get why he leads in so many action movies, because i feel that is his least suited role. My personal favorites of his are* Adaptation* and Matchstick Men

Brad Pitt - Although it is not really the case anymore, but I thought it was worth mentioning. He is a fantastic actor that is much more versatile than most people think. He has really shown off his talents in the recent years.

Ben Foster - He was incredible in 3:10 to Yuma and The Messengers. His career is not yet that impressive, but I think he will be very successful.

Sam Rockwell - He is probably most recognized by people from Charlie's Angels and Iron Man 2, which is a shame (although I loved him in Iron Man 2). If you haven't seen him in Moon, watch it as soon as possible.

Please share some of the actors/actresses that you think are underrated!

Good movies to watch?

Posted: 06 Apr 2012 09:58 AM PDT

So, it's the middle of easter break, and I am bored. Therefore, I was wondering if /r/movies had any suggestions on what movies I could watch. I mostly enjoy watching adventure, action and comedy movies.

Thanks in advance.

Sofia Vergara on Her Sex Scenes with Sharon Stone

Posted: 06 Apr 2012 11:30 AM PDT

"Extra" met up with "Modern Family" star Sofia Vergara in NYC as she rehearsed to host "SNL," and we got the scoop on her upcoming movie, "Fading Gigolo." Vergara, 39, and Stone, 54, will play bisexual lovers in the film, but Vergara insisted there is "no lesbian loving... Somebody I don't know thought it was more interesting to write, 'Oh, Sharon Stone and Sofia Vergara, they have to have like a lesbian scene.'" The curvaceous actress told "Extra" about being in the comedic spotlight this Saturday, saying, "I'm, you know, excited and a little anxious, because I don't want to mess everything up that day because it's live." Watch Sofia on "Saturday Night Live," Saturday, April 7th.

Jennifer explained, "It was just a very natural thing for us to do together. Everything that the song is saying -- where I'm at -- it was just very natural. It didn't feel forced."

Casper later added, "Me and Jen work well together. The only thing in rehearsals... we had a couple grouchy moments 'cause we both were fasting for the video to get in great shape."

The sexy video premiered on "American Idol" Thursday night, but it had to be toned down a bit for primetime TV. The singer laughed, "There's a sea of bodies in the beginning. [FOX] thought it looked too provocative so they asked us to cut those pieces out for 'Idol.'"

As for one of her "Idol" favorites (DeAndre Brackensick) getting the boot, the judge said she was a "little bit" surprised. "I thought he was worth saving."

Jennifer also had a nice mommy moment Thursday, before "Idol," taking 4-year-old twins Max and Emme to see the Easter Bunny at The Grove. What are her plans for Easter? Jennifer replied, "I don't know. Usually my family comes over, we cook, we do a little Easter egg hunt with the kids, get them baskets."

Tyler, the Creator probably deserves to get pranked, so that's exactly what Bam Margera and MTV's newly resurrected "Punk'd" did. In a brand new episode of the celebrity shenanigans show, Tyler is coaxed into signing his autograph on a food truck that will be auctioned off with the proceeds going to charity.

Little does the Odd Future frontman know things are about to go terribly wrong. After he makes himself a taco on Wee-Man's truck -- he's a "Jackass" veteran -- the vehicle explodes into a raging ball of fire. A man close to the truck is covered in flames and he runs away from the scene.

Game of Thrones Episode 2.02 Review

Game of Thrones Episode 2.02 Review

In case you missed it in my rambling introduction of last week's Game of Thrones season premiere review, I will be chiming in every week with a review of each Season 2 episode before it airs Sunday nights at 9 PM ET on HBO. Be warned, though, there may be a few spoilers within this review from Episode 2.01: The North Remembers, so if you haven't watched this episode yet, read this review of Episode 2.02: The Night Lands at your own risk.

Now then, where were we? Oh yes. After my marathon Game of Thrones Season 1 session a few weeks back, one of the burning questions I had was what shall become of young Arya (Maisie Williams), who was "transformed" into a "boy" by Yoren (Francis Magee) at the end of Season 1. We finally catch up with the feisty young lass/lad right away in this episode, journeying north with Yoren, who is taking more recruits up to join the Night's Watch. While everyone in the Night's watch is considered somewhat of an outcast, it is fitting that Arya becomes friends with Gendry (Joseph Dempsie), the bastard son of Robert Baratheon. There is a fantastic scene where King Joffrey's men ride up, and Arya hides, thinking they're looking for her, when they're actually searching for Gendry, although some fast talk (and blade work) from Yoren turns the riders away empty-handed.

We meet Balon Greyjoy in this week's Game of Throne's episode

In last week's review, I expressed my desire to see more of Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage). Episode 2.02: The Night Lands gives us much more with our favorite Imp, and sets up the notion that he just may be the right man to take the Iron Throne, even though he isn't one of the "Five Kings" vying for it. His scenes are easily the best in this episode, including a fantastic confrontation with the cunning Lord Varys (Conleth Hill), who seems to know exactly who his companion Shae (Sibel Kekilli) really is, and my favorite part of the episode where he exercises his power as Hand of the King in a way which pisses off his sister, Cersei (Lena Headey). He makes some incredibly bold decisions, and is cheerfully whistling away as he does so. There is also an important scene where the small council receives a raven, asking for more men to serve on The Night's Watch, claiming that supernatural forces are on the rise. Tyrion is the only one who actually believes this to be true, with Cersei, Varys, and the others laughing off these claims, which could be a grave mistake.

Sadly, though, we don't get much more of Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke). In last week's episode, she sent off three Dothraki riders to see how far The Red Waste reaches, and this week, one of the horses returns with the head of Rakharo.

On the Kingsroad, Arya and Gendry's bond grows stronger in a fantastic and rather hilarious scene where Gendry reveals he knows she's a girl... although he finds out exactly which girl she is, the daughter of Ned Stark. None of the other Night's Watch recruits seem to know her true gender, so it will be interesting to see how this plays out as this party travels north.

We get to meet a few new characters in this episode, as we journey to the Iron Islands with Theon Greyjoy (Alfie Allen) returning home to see his father after nine years in Winterfell. However, Balon Greyjoy (Patrick Malahide) is none too thrilled to see his son, thinking Theon's years up north has softened his only surviving son. I loved this scene as well, because we see how pompous and important Theon thinks he is by returning home, only to be brought down to earth by his hardened father, and even his sister Yara (Gemma Whelan), who has seen more battle than her brother since he's been gone. However, my favorite new character is easily the Salladhor Saan (Lucian Msamati). Davos Seaworth (Liam Cunningham) meets with this pirate to secure his fleet for Stannis Baratheon's quest for the crown. I like how ballsy this Salladhor is, because one of his demands is to have sex with the queen once they get to King's Landing. This scene also touches on the aspect of religion in Westeros, with Salladhor saying he's been all over the world, and everyone thinks that they're God is the right God. Speaking of Stannis (Stephen Dillane), it becomes very clear in this episode that his new companion Melisandre (Carice van Houten) has fully seduced him, by promising him something Stannis' wife could not give her.

Peter Dinklage as Tyrion Lannister in Game of Thrones

The episode ends in typically fantastic fashion, with the payoff of a very simple question uttered by Jon Snow (Kit Harington) in last week's episode. When they first arrive at Craster's (Robert Pugh), Snow and the others are told this wildling marries his daughters, which prompts Snow to ask, 'What does he do with the sons?' Well, we get an answer to that question... kind of... and learn that Snow is in quite a bit of danger.

If you agree, disagree, or just want to talk about this fantastic land of Westeros, you can find me on Twitter @GallagherMW.

Game of Thrones episode 2.2, "The Night Lands" airs on HBO April 8th, 2012. The episode stars Emilia Clarke, Lena Headey, Peter Dinklage, Jack Gleeson, Sophie Turner, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Maisie Williams, Kit Harington and is directed by Alan Taylor.
