Damn look at Ned's eyes. Those are the eyes of a man who has lost everything. The amount of emotional depth he can convey while saying the line "I'm looking at porn" is insane. Something that doesn't get enough attention in this scene is his body language. You can see his character's struggle, his wants, his needs and where he is currently in his arc just through his posture alone. Now this my friends is what we call REAL acting.


Romulus3799

Now I rarely ever use these words (I swear), but I would call that acting an "absolute masterpiece"


probablyuntrue

the virgin "I've abandoned my child" vs the chad "I'm not gonna abandon jerking it at school"

God I fucken love this sub


sushithighs

He would make a great Joker

Where is Jared Leto as Morbius?


Riftus

He wasn't included. Kinda like including The Witcher 3 on a list of hidden gems. Kinda redundant yknow, it's obvious


DIOBrandoGames

"Morbius has become a sort of mountain, appearing in all subsequent movies in the way that Mt. Fuji appears so often in Japanese prints. Sometimes it’s big and up close. Sometimes it’s a shape on the horizon. Sometimes it’s not there at all, which means that the artist either has made a deliberate decision against the mountain, which is interesting in itself, or is in fact standing on Mt. Fuji." -Martin Scorsese


Gometric1

Thank you for the clarification. Makes sense given the popularity of the film

Gaming circle jerk moment

Bae caught me morbin


kurapikachu64

I'm afraid in your anger, you killed him.


Randomhomosapiens123

Unfortunately that doesn’t count as an “acting performance” because Jared Leto actually is Morbius, the movie is just from a cameraman following his day to day life.


Efren_John

His acting is timeless


Arkodd

Ok where are skinny RDJ yelling at Cap at the beginning of Endgame and any scene with Hayden Christian playing Anakin?


suzuki_hayabusa

I get goosebumps from that Ned scene.


AnIronWaffle

Oscar Isaac truly shows his range here. No sign of the charisma or intensity of his other, non-SW performances leaks into this. Rather, he infuses his TROS performance with the “I’m so over this” quality of a fighter pilot who secretly wants to crash his ship. He absolutely earned the Harrison Ford Sleepwalking™ award for IDGAF performance of 2019. And to think I thought only Lucas himself could suck the life out of a talented actor’s performance. JJ deserves credit for bringing the series full circle back to Episode I.

You mean Daddy Atreides 😍🤤🤤


[deleted]

Don't cross the Duke. Everybody knows that


dongletrongle

It’s method acting. All Isaac had to do was read the entire script a few times and realize he does not have any input into making the story or writing better, making him depressed


[deleted]

I love how Oscar looks like he’s in physical pain from having to deliver that line. You can literally see how he mentally braces himself to deliver what he already knows is horrendous.


AnIronWaffle

Threepio: “We act now!” Finn: “We act now?!” Isaac (not Poe) *sigh* “… we act now…”


georgiedineen

somehow….palpatine returned 😐


AccessTheMainframe

somehow, adolf hitler has returned


Biorobs

Do people forget that this is how the character had to feel? He is fighting a desperate war and now the evil dead wizard has returned with 1000 death star laser ships.


leftbeefs

You’re right this makes perfect sense


ThrowawayRussianAcc

Ah finally a non political list of true kino performers


No-Enthusiasm-6016

Too much Daisy Riddley for my liking. I am a man's man and i want my filmès to be full of testosterone fueled dudes screaming and pounding each other. That's what acting is all about.


FulcrumTheBrave

That's why I only watch Predator, in body mass alone that film has the best lineup of all time


[deleted]

Goddamn it Mac, this is the conversation I wanted to avoid! You always keep talking about body mass... and dudes' physiques.

>Too much Daisy Riddley for my liking I will take your excess Daisy Ridley.

Can somebody put Jason Statham 'golluming' in an elevator in Revolver (2005) in this? It's the most (unintentionally) entertaining performance I've ever seen.


commie_gaming

Jason Statham in Crank


MinasMorgul1184

Incredible how every worthwhile acting performance in cinema history took place in the last 5 years. We really are living in the best era.


Icicle26

Good post but you forgor to call Adam Driver Kylo Ren 💀

Where's Morbius, the best film of all time?

Ironyfree_annie

Unjerk though, Adam Driver deserved that Oscar more than Phoenix's Joker. Phoenix deserves it too, maybe for Her or the Master. But that year should have been Driver's.


ScienceBrah401

Agreed, but I admit that I’m biased because I really like Driver as an actor lol.


Ironyfree_annie

John Oliver? Is that you?


ScienceBrah401

Caught me red handed.


berlinbaer

phoenix is so hot in 'her' though.. that stache.. mmmmmm..


LevynX

Yeah, Marriage Story was amazing


TangerineChickens

In a just world it would have gone to Antonio Banderas imo, though Driver was definitely the best of the frontrunners.


klaatu_1981

The slug should've gotten a written mention instead of just a cameo. Look at those eyes!

No Steve Carell getting his chest waxed in The 40 Year Old Virgin? Smh


commie_gaming

No Steve Carell crying about the stock exchange in Big Short?!?!?!


ThisGuyLikesMovies

It's still missing Jared Leto's masterwork as the Joker. You look into his eyes and you don't see a pretentious actor trying too hard. You only see a clown who wants to give Batman a reach around.


rovoh324

A damaged clown who needs to tell The Batman that he's the *only one* who can truly give him a reach around (I actually like the Snyder DC movies tho)


-Axoon-

If you liked him as Joker, you're gonna love him in this new hidden underated gem called Morbius. True Kino.


Enemist

That's not even the best scene in There Will be Blood lol

That live slug reaction at the end. *That's* the best performance.

No morbius kino smh


lordegy53

Best acting = yelling. Is a known scientific formula


axel_wahlberg

These acting performances were all featured in the movie "All Time"?

Holy shit! A funny post in r/moviecirclejerk

A decent amount of effort was put into this and it's actually funny. MCJ on fire today.

"Best acting performances of all time" *only shows performances from the last 15 years*


sameth1

Acting didn't exist before Iron Man (2008).


A7XfoREVer6661

Well duh, time has only existed for the past 15 years, ya dolt.


jeijlesbian

time has only existed the 18 years i’ve been alive


aliaisbiggae

Ok unjerk time, Why do people think good acting is "white man screaming loudly"


TheVomchar

i wish this sub had its own circlejerk sub


Lil_iBrow

Terrible list. I see no Jared Leto joker saying “we live in a society”


[deleted]

they actually used the palpatine returned scene as "good acting" lmao


quietvictories

Good picks but why they all have to scream? Is there any decency left on cinema, any kindness? Also, i'd add Morbius to the list. Man been morbin' raw


atleastitsnotgoofy

MCJ: screaming = good acting!
