  How refreshing it would be to see a major film with not one recognizable face.

  The pool of good actors cannot possibly be as small as Hollywood thinks it is.

  Yes, I know big names draw crowds ...but still ...it would be a welcome change.

  Edit: Not to imply all. I never tire of Woody Harrison, Octavia Spencer, Julianne Moore. J.K. Simmons and others.

  Seems like every damn thing I've seen lately has him in it.
  
  Quick look at IMDB says he did 5 films in 2017, 5 in 2016, and 8 of them in the works for 2018. Yikes!

  Besides the previously mentioned and over-rated Streep, I am sick of Jennifer Lawrence! Hollywood is going to spend years shoving her down our throats. The way they have Streep.

    Will Lawrence ever top Winter's Bone ?

  I was beginning to think all films were required to have Morgan Freeman several years back. Seems many actors get hot and you see them in everything, and then they are gone.

  for 30+ years now.
  
  Michael Shannon?
  
  Doesn't strike me as a too much actor.
  
  Plus he's always perfect in the role.

    Watching an almost 60 year old guy do crazy action stunts is just stupid.
    
    He should have been looking for character roles for the past twenty years.
    
    But the stupid movies have stupid big paychecks and I guess he likes the money.
