Who is the superior actor ?

Dramatic Gecko
Bruce Willis... because he's proved to more than just a six pack with his voice roles: Look who's talking, Over the Hedge.

A much more colourful character then Mathew who seems to have only one acting style.

Matt also has an oscar, sport.

Only an idiot would compare those two. Considering one's a romantic comedy, the other's a crime drama, Willis only had a few years of acting back then and McConaughy has decades of experience behind him in TD.

You be you though.

You be you though. It was a joke. Who is the superior actor though ? Quit doing your thing about crying about threads.

Robtard
Sadly it wasn't a joke, you just realized how stupid your comment was and are dancing as usual.

IMO, McConaughy is with his last few years of great performances. While Willis is going the path of Liam Neeson. Hoping the oscar doesn't go to McConaughy's head and he starts doing crap.

Dramatic Gecko
Bruce Willis has a much more animated voice, he's cooler and lets admit his movies are just better. Oscars don't mean shit. They all go to the boring movies anyway. Leo will back me up on this.

Yippekayyay Mother****a.

Oscar's are not necessarily the best indicator. See: Cuban Gooding Jr. By that logic, he's better than someone like Leo DiCaprio.

I don't get silly attached to actors and characters like you, so the only thing you've accomplished is showing your butthurt towards an actor because of a character he portrayed which caused you epic levels of anal-pains in here. Congrats?

Predator was awesome! THe acting was a bit iffy. But Die Hard? YIPPIE KAI YAY!

The only person who acted better in Die Hard was the villain. snape... snape... severus snape. Who by the way was so much more scarier than Voldermort.

Hey hey! Lets not go that far. I see his movies, Failure to Launch, The Wedding PLanner , fools gold. His acting is good. I find him funny and cool. Unfortunately that's all he ever is. I swear he's the same character in every movie. He's good but he's not diverse. But when I think about the same can be said for Bruce Willis. I guess it comes down to action or chick flick.

NemeBro
Calm down.

Watch True Detective or Dallas Buyer's Club or something before you make that decision.

Or Reign of Fire. no expression

All right I'll give them a watch, but if he has the same personality again I'll be so disappointed.

Leave Fiennes out of this. Matthew has been an excellent actor for quite some time. This just didn't happen overnight.

What is Bruce's best performance? or top 3?

FrothByte
It's actually a pretty hard question to answer. Bruce Willis mostly just plays the same character in all of his films, with a few tweaks here and there. But when he does them right they end up great.

Matthew doesn't have that many memorable roles, but he's way more flexible and versatile in his characters and acting.

If they were both in drama school, I bet Matthew would get higher grades in just about everything over Bruce. But when it comes to bankability (especially blockbusters) then Willis definitely is more successful .

So let's just say this: McConaughey is a better actor. Willis is a better movie star.

marwash22
so yeah, short answer is that Matt is the superior actor.

Bruce Willis is more diverse and has proven talent

Diverse? No. Talented? Yes, if the role he's portraying falls under his strengths.

Probably because of the Reign of Fire vs. Die hard thread.

Quality of the films are irrelevant, Willis's performances were brilliant. I haven't seen true detective, but I've seen enough McConaughey movies to know he doesn't come close to Willis.

It's obvious your opinion isn't gonna change erm

They were great performances, but they weren't really that diverse. Not quite as diverse as say Van Zan and Matt's character in Magic Mike.

Dramatic Gecko
Matthew is the well presented seasoned quail dish and Bruce Willis is that Massive Steak we always order.

It's obvious your opinion isn't gonna change erm Death becomes her was stupid and he was just some nerd these two women pushed around. The acting was ok and the role was generic. Acting has to do with movies, shows, anything. He won an oscar for a movie. Has Bruce won an oscar ?

Let me put it this way :

Willis is someone whose career has been filled with actual hits that have ranged from romantic comedy to action to drama. A wide range of people like his movies. Most people can honestly say that they regularly watch a Bruce Willis movie.

Matthew is somebody whose career has been filled with mostly ick, although sometimes he can rise above the ick to create a good film. I'll give him three good films : "A Time to Kill," "Sahara," and "The Dallas Buyer's Club." Two heavy dramas and one action/adventure that's pretty enjoyable. Yes, he's won an Oscar. I've always thought he should've won an Oscar for "A Time to Kill," because that movie is just ridiculously good. Most of the rest of his movies are stupefying rom-coms. Even if there's a good film that he's in, he's usually the worst part of the good film.

So we have a solid star and a three-hit wonder.

Case closed.

Ok, I haven't seen enough Mcconaughey movies. I've seen Sahara, Wolf of Wallstreet and two for the money with Al Pacino. I didn't see Magic Mike, Lincoln Lawyer or Dallas Buyers Club

I still like Willis more

Probably Pulp Fiction but I thought he was great in Unbreakable as well.

Lestov16
I guess technically Matthew has more acting rage, but Willis has been in far more enjoyable films and is by far more famous. And none of his characters suicide-dove into a dragon, so there's another McPlus.
