What about pretty much everyone except for Liam Neilson in the Star Wars Prequels? We had a whole thread on what happened to Jake Lloyd awhile back (he crashed and burned harder than any example in this thread). Also, most of the people from the Twilight series will probably be screwed, except for maybe Robert Patterson.

You mean Liam Neeson? Ewan McGregor has been doing well enough for himself. Natalie Portman is coming off an Oscar win. Samuel L. Jackson is still Samuel L. Jackson. Ray Park still has plenty of work. I would say Jake Lloyd is the only one out of that series to completely fail.

As for Twilight, Taylor Lautner is going to be the only one that fails to segue to something else. Kristen Stewart was already popular before she was ever signed on.

[Bladenic]

I dunno about Kristen Stewart... she's so awful. I don't see Pattinson doing much either. Lautner is a given to be forgotten. Oh well, only one I care about is Kendrick, whom seems to be doing well for herself.

[PepsimanVsJoe]

And Clive Owen had 2 films last year... Not including the recently screened Shadow Dancer.

I had to look this film up.
Needless to say I'm a bit disappointed.

(Yes I was in fact expecting a movie about a ninja master and his ninja dog)

[likedamaster]

Chris Tucker is a stand up comedian first, and a movie actor second. He's been doing standup.

He was in the movie Friday too.

[Liquidus]

[buhdeh]

I can't believe someone said Al Pacino. LOL.

[789shadow]

I quite like Elisabeth Shue, wonder why she never made it.

Well, she is the new leading lady on CSI. We'll see how that goes.

He's currently the star of one of CBS's highest-rated shows. That's a strange way to disappear. Person of Interest, btw.

He's a godlike badass in that show.


Also, sidenote, Elijah Wood just popped up in the oddest place imaginable. Season 10 of Red vs. Blue.

[WinoMcCougarstein]

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

The fuck?

[Angry Grimace]

He voices Skipps in Regular Show... he gets a free pass. My contribution, Rupert Alexander Grint of Harry Potter fame.

Harry Potter 7 came out last year. Seriously, gimme a break.

I was enjoying this thread until people seriously started arguing Eddie freakin' Murphy fit the definition the OP listed. How old are some of you? Jesus.

That's what's so sad about him. He's been bad for so long that an entire generation only knows him as someone who stars in awful bombs and not a God-Tier 80/9ss comedian.

[sangreal]

shouldve gone with Aaliyah

[WinoMcCougarstein]

shouldve gone with Aaliyah

Who?

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Who?

Stop rocking the boat.

His career stalled immediately after 48 Hours. All those other huge '80s hits? Lies. We've always been at war with Eastasia.

[ShadyMilkman]

Who?

Exactly.

[TAJ]

The Expendables sucked. Stallone was such a flash in the pan, lol.

Who?

Some dumb bitch who got a bunch of people killed so she could pack more luggage.
Actually, your answer was better...

[Black-Box]

no one hate, he has a point, even if he didn't die, the movie would of probably ruined him mentally

[Aselith]

In the case of Chris Tucker I think it's more likely that those movies made him rich and he's fine with not having to work for a living anymore. I think that's a different situation than some of these actors that only had one hit that made them famous, but that they didn't necessarily made a ton of money on (or they blew it all) and then spent the rest of their career getting by by doing shitty roles.

Then the entire cast of Friends and Seinfeld should be taken off as well because they are rich as fuck.

[Dreams-Visions]

still flawless.

[Dany M]

Who?

Music Artist whose plane crashed and burned.

[PsychoSoldier]

Brittany Murphy is the one I always think of--Clueless, then Just Married, then very little after that. Then she died at like age 32. Really sad shit.

[jj350]

Music Artist whose plane crashed and burned.

The Big Bopper?

[Black_Stride]

Has anyone said Keeanu Reeves yet?

No one is that stupid.

[commedieu]

What actors are out there whose careers crashed and burned after a hit series or film or whatever? .

annd for bad taste...

[Loofy]

Was everwhere. After scott pilgrim... not so much.


And looking at imdb I guess shes still getting work. I dont remember her in anything after jessie and the pussycats though.

(Rachel leigh cook)

Same with former it girl estella warren.

[thefit]

Thora Birch. Child Star, American Beauty and Ghost World, then boom career death. Getting too thin, blonde hair + nutty parents didn't help.

WAIT!, WAIT!....wait, wait, wait holly shit you blew my mind I always thought it was Christina Ricci in that role......wtf lol

[elwes]

Whatever happened to Orlando Jones?

[Angelus Errare]

Some dumb bitch who got a bunch of people killed so she could pack more luggage. Actually, your answer was better...

1. Really disrespectful
2. It wasn't her luggage it was sound and video equipment. Aaliyah's bodyguard and friend Scotty Gallin also told the film crew there was too much but the film crew demanded everything be packed on. At no point was this Aaliyah demanding anything.
3. Pilot wasn't 100% sober either.

[gabbo]

She did a lot of voice over work for cartoons (King of the Hill being the most well known), 8 Mile, that Michael Douglas movie with the line "I'll never tell", Sin City, a ton of romantic comedies before and after Just Married.

[Screenboy]

Cuba Gooding Jr. hasn't really done anything of note after winning that oscar.

SNOWDOGS!

Thank you.

[Dr.Acula]

Just looked up Cuba's IMDB. Okay, these are all within the last five years...










Anyone want to make a movie with Cuba holding a gun? I think he'd be down with that.

Slater, Woods, Kilmer, Liotta, Keitel! Is there like a washed-up actor sewing circle these guys all belong to?

Dude... I'm gonna have to watch all these films!

[Count Dookkake]

Same with former it girl estella warren.

Painfully hot.

These all look amazing. Val Kilmer's face is an egregiously horrible Photoshop job.

[Skel1ingt0n]

Came to post Casper Van Dien.

It's a shame, too, because he absolutely rocked in Starship Troopers. No, he's not the best actor; but he fit that role wonderfully. I would have enjoyed seeing him in other things.

M.I. does the dying. Fleet just does the flying :\

Yeah? Well, I am from Buenos Aires and I say KILL 'EM ALL!

[Count Dookkake]

I am not going on vacation!

[I Push Fat Kids]

Casper was in ST3, jerks.

[Blutonium]

Casper was in ST3, jerks.

There is a Starship Troopers 3? There is a Starship Troopers 2?

[THE NO LIFE KING]

Same with former it girl estella warren.

Jesus Christ, look @ that smushed boob! I'd also had a big crush on her when she was popular. Still do.

[MThanded]

Don't be hating on Julia. Real talk. Thats my homegirl.

[Joni]

I dunno about Kristen Stewart... she's so awful. I don't see Pattinson doing much either.

Pattinson is doing it out of his own free will, he prefers indie films.

Came to post Casper Van Dien.

Isn't he starring in some soap because he is married to a a princess?

[Jburton]

Thora Birch. Child Star, American Beauty and Ghost World, then boom career death. Getting too thin, blonde hair + nutty parents didn't help.

Great tits though.

[ryutaro's mama]

Born too early to play Tom Brady in SpyGate:The Movie

[smr00]

Last time I saw him in anything: and then: EDIT: Oh yeah. He was in the music video for The Unnamed Feeling by Metallica.

What is it with actors getting really fucking fat?

[dejay]

Casper was in ST3, jerks.

Coincidentally I stumbled across the trailer for that last week. Woefully bad. I just checked and it was direct to DVD as I suspected.

The next instalment, in CG, is due soon.

[Kentpaul]

Mr blonde
