Quentin Tarantino vs M. Night Shyamalan

[Ted Pikul]

Who is the worst actor?

Tarantino has given some horrible performances but nothing he's done matches the awfulness of Shyamalan in Signs.

I didnt see anything "awful" about his brief acting in Signs...and I 've never seen a horrible performance from QT either. If I had to quess who would be the better more enigmatic actor in a major role, I'd have to go with Tarantino.

[El Bracamonti]

Alright, I fucked up. I was hasty and figured this was just another "Who's better?" thread, so I marked QT. HOWEVER, I definitely think that QT reigns supreme when it comes to acting.

"I didnt see anything "awful" about his brief acting in Signs"

How about the fact he looked liked he was reading his lines off a cue card?

Plus it wasn't a brief part.

He had more screen time than the blasted aliens.

Even Ashton Kutcher is a better actor than Shyamalan & that's saying something.

There's not a whole lot of material to judge Night by, so I guess I chose him, considering Tarantino at least had the Like a Virgin speech and some funny material in his movies

I was gonna say QT, but NIght's acting in Signs was just fucking pathetic.

Agreed. Night was just really REALLY bad in Signs. I've enjoyed QT in his roles.

[HHHLovesMovies]

Quentin "Da Man" Tarantino is the man!

Night was awful...just plain awful.

[ANavissi500]

QT should stay behind the camera.
I actually liked Shamalyn in Signs.

[Sigur509]

I loved QT in RD and Pulp, Jimmie was one of the funniest parts in PF.

I actually think Tarantino is the worst actor of the two...his small role in Pulp Fiction marred an otherwise great film. Shamalamadingdong is egotistical, but I don't get overly distracted by his acting when he gives himself such plum roles.

[Joshmo]

Um,,, it may be your OPINION he was reading his lines from a cue card, but that doesnt make it a FACT. I dont like to debate with people when statements like that are made... its only gonna degenerate into an argument. Peace... :cool:

[syxxpac]

Ted said he looked like he was reading his lines from a cue card, not that he was reading them from a cue card.

And I prefer Tarantino. They're both subpar actors, but Quentin's dialogue is golden, no matter who it's coming from.

[Indy in IN]

M. Night Shyamylan can't act for shit. Not that Tarantino is that much better.

[bowieee]

Tarintino is at least amusing.

[GoldenGhost]

Quentin grates on me in Pulp Fiction. It's like he's taking the piss. M. Night wasn't as bad as everyone's making the chap out to be. Plus, Quentin got more screen time.

[dannywalker17]

I definetely didn't read carefully and assumed this was another who's better director poll, so I voted M'night, but I would say Tarantino is the worse actor. Neither of them are horrible, but QT is definetely the weaker actor.

[the minority]

M. Night.

QT is much better.

[Cronos]

MN is worse than QT
