John Wayne

[Graves]

I know this is going to upset some of you, but I don't think I have ever seen a single film of his, not completely anyway. I was a deprived child I guess...

I'll probably upset the crowd even more by telling you that you're not missing out on anything at all. I always thought he was a lousy actor.

You know, funny, I was getting ready to ask if it is even really worth my time to go through the old films.

The one thing I hated in True Grit was Glenn Campbell-what a miscast in my opinion.

he wasn't a lousy actor, he was a great actor.

"and starring as John Wayne, John Wayne!"

just like denzel washington and robert deniro. they don't play the role, they play themselves.

I like De Niro and Washington, The Duke always came off like a big clumsy oaf to me.

I'm more of an Eastwood fan.

I will upset the crowd also as I have no respect for him being to worried about his film career instead of joining the military during WWII. No respect.

From the little I have seen of him, I really don't think you can compare him to either of those two. Again, I still haven't seen a complete movie of his, only maybe 1/4 of a few, but I was wondering if I missed something that I just didn't see in his films. From what I did see, I can say he wasn't as good of an actor as the two mentioned.

I was waiting for someone to chime in with this shit. Yea he is definitly a d-bag in my book for that cowardly shit.

Arguments hold no weight..

He was Deemed 4F because of his knee.. Screwed it up playing football at UCLA..

Right you are Marlin. And the positive effect his movies had on the morale of our troops - especially during the Vietnam conflict more than made up for his never getting to serve.
