It trips me out when I’m browsing movies to watch, and I see actors that use to be considered like ‘it’ back in the day.

I don’t think young people even know who Deneese Richard’s is. Or, remember when Charlie Shean went fucking nuts with the whole ‘winning’ shit ?

Or, Hailey Joel Osman. Remember him? He was in A.I., The Sixth Sense, I mean fuck.

He was a super popular and REALLY GOOD child actor.

It seemed like all the really big directors like Spielberg used him for their films. Big block buster movies. I don’t think there is one shitty movie he was in. They were all big and with really famous actors.

There’s so many new actors and actresses now. Idk to me, they are not iconic at all and movies aren’t the same anymore either.

Just crazy how like they aren’t relevant anymore

    Maybe that is the case- they keep trying to present us with new people to take over, but they tend to not stick.

    This may be, in part, because of the longevity of figures like Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise, just holding on to those key roles in films forever. Same with WIll Smith - for crying out loud, that guy got his big break on some TV show 30 years ago.
