You guys notice star power seems to be fading? Pic related is Brad Pitt's age when the Ocean's trilogy came out. Everyone knew who Pitt was even my grandma but no one knows Fassbender. Curious how this will affect the industry

brad pitt has a more catchy name

he is not that mainstream senpai. everyone knows who kardashian is desu.

totally different careers, not even comparable

pitt had a lot of hunk roles, magazines etc

The Rock is literally the biggest star right now, everybody knows him.

Not every career has to be paralell. How old was Morgan Freeman when he became a star, for example?

You are seriously deluded if you think Fassbender is at Pitt's level when he was in his prime.

i can't think of anyone who was at Pitt's level in his prime. and that seems to be the point

I think there is some phenomena at work here user, but it's not that star power is fading, just shifting.
Actors generally pale in comparison to media whores like the Kardashians,etc.

jake gyllenhaal is the new pitt. fassbender is an old fuck and tom hardy can't stop eating steroids

And Sup Forums talks about Henry Cavill hairline.

JUST

wowowowoow wait, this guy dates a nigresse

Has anyone reached Tom Cruise prime level yet?

That guy is banging VIkander ?

daamnn

>supposedly Swedish
>looks like a middle eastern
How?

its not entirely faded. i mean if tom cruise walked around he'd still get mobbed out the ass.

i do think it's not like it used to be though. for example rockstars aren't really worshiped the way they used to be anymore. there are no michael jacksons, freddie mercurys or axl roses now. nobody cares. its kind of true for actors as well, nobody really gives that much of a fuck about chris pine or ryan gosling. it hasnt seemed as though the torch has been passed from mega actors like tom cruise or brad pitt to the next generation.

dont really know why that is. i think to some degree its because of the internet and the far greater freedom of information it offers. in the past people could only be fed what to believe via television and their sources of information were much narrower. with the internet you have youtube and access to far more people and whatever else you want than ever before. nobody cares about channel E, or mtv news, etc. plus with the rise of social media like facebook and instagram people are far too concerned about themselves to be worshiping hollywood stars anymore

>jake gyllenhaal is the new pitt
lol not even, not anywhere close

jake gyllenhaal is jake gyllenhaal though. he's doing his own, but he's nowhere near the star power of pitt or cruise.

>get a tan
>don't dye her hair
it's a mystery

It's called New Swedish, no joke. Just setting foot makes you Swedish. We've had massive shitskin(Italian, Yugoslavian and South American) immigration that darkened the average Swede. Even the Royal Family is dark due to the king marrying a Brazilian.

>Alicia Vikander
>Black

They don't let black people win Oscars sempai

>more like *Vikander* is banging that guy?

but fassbender was fucking the negress from the kino shame

Was Tom Cruise ever that popular?
He always seemed to be a poor man's Brad Pit to me

ugh, another stupid ass thread on Sup Forums, who would've thunk it?

Then that had nothing to do with dating one...

Ohnoitsretarded.png

king of sweden is an assman huh?

It's the other way around.

>this faggot

how old are you? maybe you weren't around back then but Cruise was the biggest name in the industry for a good few years, if not a decade. Pitt has always played second fiddle to Cruise. i think only Harrison Ford could compete during those days.

I think he was up there. He's definitely got more recognition as an actor than Pitt who was just eye candy.

>sempai

this always triggers me as fuck, retarded americans using incorrect spelling

do people like you think there is a limited amount of threads that can be made in a day? shift click this thread and you won't see it honey

What's the difference between brad pitt and fassgoat?

american and whatever fassgoat is

Which is weird because hasn't made good movie yet.

Ass-bender can actually act. He's also not a cuck.

Are you surprised? Sweden is the black sheep of Scandinavia.

I understand her parents are rich bankers. That's why we're seeing her everywhere. Are her parents paying Fassbender to date her? He could do a who lot better t b h f a m.

Funny how star power has gone down as leading men have been more and more immasculated.

Harrison ford
Arnold
Stallone
Pitt
Cruise
Redford
Connery
Etc etc etc

Now we have a bunch of pretty boy pussies

New stars look weaker than the ones in the past. I don't think the Kardashians/Jenner/Hadid are as good looking as Sharon Stone/Demi Moore/Linda Evangelista/Cindy Crawford in their prime.

because those were actors and not big fat whores. I don't know why you'd even compare the two.

>he is not that mainstream senpai. everyone knows who kardashian is desu.

millenial audiences are superficial, short attention span wannabe whores who, at the same time, think they're al somehow SJWs and feminists.

>Pitt and Cruise
>not pretty boy pussies
top lol

I think there are no more mega stars because they don't want guys like Tom Cruise or Mel Gibson to climb up so high up the ranks that they can't stop them if they had to.

nope, but i honestly do believe there should be a quota on stupid threads with false equivalencies and fallacious reasoning on any, if not all, forums.

literally boy pussies too. no new male actor gets any roles anymore without doing a lot of gay-themed favors at producers' parties.

dicaprio

Because your not supposed to find women attractive.

in fact you used an example of somebody they actually stopped top kek

Tom Cruise was the quintessential actor of his time. When you think of the word actor, you think of him and five others.

i can't even imagine being intellectually bothered by a post on a forum

Mel Gibson has half a billion to his name and is beloved by Christians. However you want to gauge it, he got pretty far. And I doubt they don't want another one him popping up again.

24
But I'm also german and we don't all that Star craze and really only know actors from their movies and I don't remember any good Cruise movies.

Was Mission Impossible more popular than the Ocean's series?

>Mel Gibson has half a billion to his name and is beloved by Christians. However you want to gauge it, he got pretty far
and it made no difference because as soon as he pissed them off he was basically booted out of hollywood

I know exactly what you mean.

I think it might be related to oversaturation of celebrities, there's only so much limelight and you have a lot more people competing for it now, most of whom have zero legitimacy.

You make a good case for it being related to the rise of the internet and the subsequent fall of the media monopoly. Once upon a time there was Arnie, because he was in every single great action movie. He virtually monopolised the "big guy" niche.

We have The Rock now, and he does a fine job don't get me wrong, but he has a lot more competition for that top spot than Arnie did.

>Brad Pitt more popular than tom cruise.

Top lel

Deesoo deesoo

It's because we now know actors are replaceable overpaid prostitutes desperate for attention.
Look at Marilyn Monroe. Try and take a step back from her fame and image. She's fucking nothing.
Audrey Hepburn, exactly the same. She's what we'd call a waifu now. These people don't mean or stand for anything worthwhile

Why the hell are his lower legs shopped in that image?

...

There's not enough delicious Vikander booty in this thread.

>Was Mission Impossible more popular than the Ocean's series?

Yes. Obviously, were you on Sup Forums when the last two MI films came out. There's more Tom Cruise love here than any of the Ocean cast.

I hated Mork and Mindy.

The first five that come to my mind when I think male actors of the 90s are Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Jackie Chan, Bruce Willis and Will Smith

>It's because we now know actors are replaceable overpaid prostitutes desperate for attention
how come we know this now but people didnt know it back then? do people really know this now?

...

>He always seemed to be a poor man's Brad Pit to me

I have no idea why but this really triggered me

I saw Alicia Vikander in person, She is REALLY small and skinny. So small in fact that the people who saw her and were talking about her all had to mention how small she was. Some said she looked gross, which is true.

But that means Fassbender must be a fucking manlet, lol.

>delicious Vikander booty

What did he mean by this?

>Was Mission Impossible more popular than the Ocean's series?
these are the people I argue with

she's German you idiot

jackie chan was more of a stunt clown. it's probably insulting to call that guy an actor.

she looked great in her nude shot in ex machina tbhesu

She's 5'5 which is average for a woman. Either you're 6'9 or you're bullshitting.

It's not that star power is fading, it's that the media is trying to put the women in the spotlight. They've been trying to shill Jennifer Lawrence for example to the point that everyone started getting sick of her. Basically, they're trying to create a female Brad Pitt but Brad Pitt wasn't created, he made it himself and was universally loved.

To be fair. The King and his ancestors have never been "Swedish".

No, man. Her tits looked sad as fuck and her ass is droopy.

>Was Mission Impossible more popular than the Ocean's series?
dis nigga serial

It was in las vegas where they shooting Jason Bourne in the casinos. Tons of people saw her in that pants suit of hers. She looked gross.

I agree the new generation probably doesn't even have one actor that has that star factor
not even close to Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, Dicaprio, Christian Bale, etc..

who do we have? paul dano? Michael cera? jonah hill?

shia labeouf could have been huge but he decided to full retard

Good. Why do I need the media to tell me who to like. I can be that person, make a shitty social media account and get millions of followers.

And Sup Forums seems to be the most out of the loop when it comes to what's popular on the internet, which is funny because Sup Forums used to be the source of 90% of the shit that was popular on the internet.

There are so many snapchatters and youtubers out there and every fucking person under 20 follows these people who can just advertise any shit in the world to them. All traditional forms of media is dying, video games too. This will for sure be the last console generation.

People are being served more targeted ads than every and it's not working because we're still at a point that people have more freedom than every to control what they see. Everyone lives in a bubble now.

Pokemon Go is the only thing I can think of in our society that you can almost guarantee everyone under 30 will have heard about. Can't say that with anything else except maybe Star Wars.

I mainly put him there because of the name 5 things that aren't Jack Chan joke

if you really think your vinestars snapchatters or even youtubers have any sort of renown in the real world you are mistaken.

Tom Cruise was probably the first actor I recognized either by his name or face

In the era of franchises and remakes, only the character you play matters. The Thor guy has been in an embarassing string of flops, but he still gets casted and invited to shows anyway because he's the Thor guy. Same with daniel radcliffe, he barely has a career and yet he's always talked about. Fucking TV shows actor are more popular than they ever were. If you aren't on facebook, twitter and reddit, you are no one in the movie industry.

ah, that explains it. yeah, some movie stars don't cross cultures or countries. yes, the MI series was a lot more popular than the O11 series. Cruise was a mainstay in pop stardom in the US for more than a decade, maybe two, where he reigned king. these days, he's losing his luster mainly because of age but also because of his loony Scientology beliefs. Pitt, on the other hand, never really took off in the box office like Cruise did. he was in the spotlight for a long time and capitalized on it as part of ensemble pictures but he never commandeered any films that ignited the box office as Cruise did.

if fassbender had a lower hairline OP would have never made this post

Here I'm gonna trigger you

It's not incorrect

just a different spelling. The "N" letter in Japanese is sometimes pronounced like an M, which it is in senpai

well they actually do. for example pewdiepie has nearly 50 million subscribers and his videos currently have half a billion views. that undoubtedly steals limelight away from actors as time is limited. you can only capture so much attention at a time.

You are deluded if you think they don't. There's good reason why Disney are trying to sign every popular youtuber up.

You have a little brother or sister go ask them what they are into or who they follow. They won't be telling you names of movie stars. Maybe some sports stars at the most.

I understand very well that cinema cannot be everyone's passion, but come on.

too much media, kids these days watch youtube as much as we watched tv when we were young and we watched tv as much as old people watched movies. too many famous people to remember, fame is spread so thin that people are famous for being famous

>Ladies and gentlemen...Lara Croft!
She's super pretty, but I'm not seeing it.

does your mom know who pewdiepie is? does your dad? probably not but they sure as fuck know who tom cruise is.

internet fame is a meme and the idea that they steal limelight away from famous actors is a joke unless you are watching youtube videos 24/7

faggoty little kids always like niche things that nobody understands. that doesn't last but a couple of years.
