I wanted to find an awesome picture of a Black Rose or some cool gothic like valentine image to change to my user picture For V-day but I didn't find one that i like. Ok but onto the reason why I'm posting. Well I borowed this off another serch I did it isn't exactly what I want but it is good enough.

I will admit I love 24 and have to watch it every monday (today 8-10pm) , however I wonder how many of those actors can really act. I think Kieffer can pull it off but he is the only one possibly. Take hugh Laurie (from House) as an example. He has a strong accent but yet when he plays house he plays him where you don't even know he isn't american no matter what he says and he makes him sound like a jerk on top of that. So few actors ever do that anymore. Most actors in major movies play there character in the way that they speak wether it be Sam Jackson, Hugh Jackmen, The Rock, Jude Law, Kevin Spacey or who ever. Yes they do play differant characters in differant movies or even TV sometimes but they never change there voice. Hence when you see an actor you don't see the character you see the actor. But I wonder if this is the actors fault or the writers fault. If someone is just writen words and not a manner of speaking then you will always here the actor. This is true in animation sometimes as well. Sometimes after the people read there lines the mouths are redrawn to fit the voice person. But shouldn't it be the other way around sot that the actor fits with the character. Maybe I'm spliting straws here. But to hear actors in differant voices and manners of speaking would give films more creditablity and make characters move belivable. Or maybe I just have to see a wider range of movies where acents and manner of speaking is more important.
