Dashy 4 Ever 4,830 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Would you rather be the main actor in a bad movie, or have a small part in a good movie? I'd rather have a small part in a good movie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreambiscuit 6,704 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 (edited) I'd rather have a small part in a good movie. In a bad movie, nothing is remembered except the negative experience of bad film making and two hours you can't get back. Even if it had good performances they'd be forgotten over time. But a good movie, even if it's underrated, is a work of art that'll last forever. And if my small part went overlooked I'd still be happy to know that I contributed to something that I like. That would be meaningful to me. Edited June 1, 2018 by Dreambiscuit 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Passion 3,475 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Main in a bad movie. Simply because the movie is bad doesn't mean my acting would be. There's plenty of movies out there which are deemed complete trash, but "That one actor's" play was "absolutely wonderful". You can still leave a mark even in a bad movie, and even though the movie would not get recognition, your acting might. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrawCherry 1,673 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 A small part in a good movie, for basically the same reasons that Dreambiscuit stated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharpWit 2,275 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 I might have done a fantastic job as the main actor in a bad movie, it could have just been the story or other actors that screwed everything up. Not a likely reality since I can't remember lines to save my own life, so in the end probably a small role in a good movie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macavity Wilko 208 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Depends on how bad or how good it is. but I would say small role in good movie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snow Frostflame 3,565 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 I mean I nearly applied for a background position for a Star Wars movie, though backed down because reasons... mostly because it felt sketchy and to this day I have no idea if it was legit or not. Anyways getting off topic... I took 4 years worth of theater from 6th to 10th grade so I think I can pull off acting pretty well, but I don't think I'd ever want to be a main actor, especially in a crappy movie. I'd much rather be a side character or even a background character regardless of quality. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roleplay Moderator TBD 16,664 Posted June 5, 2018 Roleplay Moderator Share Posted June 5, 2018 I prefer side character in a good movie. Lead character is such a drag for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunar Glow 674 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Definitely a small part in a good movie. Then, the movie recruter people will catch a glimpse of me with a good memory of where they've seen me and hire me for bigger roles in the future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
碇 シンジン 27,416 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 I'm not much of an actor do I would rather be part of the staff or some inanimate object in the background. Movie doesn't really matter as but maybe good Movie? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PiratePony 8,438 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 What's worse is small part in a bad movie or TV show. Then no one has seen you. That's why none of you have congratulated me for Murder Castle. What's that? Exactly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longhaul 5,252 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Small part in good movie is enough for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flutterstep 39,642 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 I'd rather have a small part in a good movie. Even if your acting is amazing in a bad movie, people will still mock you for being casted in it. Whereas having a small part in a good movie might be even better that having a full role in it, as people would want to see more of you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamecubeguy214 2,509 Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Main character in bad movie, because no matter how good or bad the movie is I'd still get to have fun acting 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twilight Luna 30,016 Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Small part in a good movie. Look at Chris O’Donnell’s career after Batman & Robin. It tanked for a decade before he found work again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brony Number 42 8,581 Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 From Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd: Did you exchange your walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage. Speaking metaphorically, a bit part in a good movie is better. Practically, I would rather make a lot of money in a bad movie. Unless I thought the bit part could help me with a future career. Are we talking about a movie that is so bad it becomes famous, or a regular bad movie? Sometimes bad movies become cult classics. I am a fan of some movies that were never famous but aren't bad. There are side characters from those movies that I like. If the money is the same then I would choose an interesting side character in a good movie.

Here No Longer 5,262 Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 (edited) Small part in a good movie. I'd really choose to not be in a movie at all, but that's not a choice in this thread. Edited June 11, 2018 by Barik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Props Valroa 22,526 Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 (edited) Main part in a bad movie. What is bad is subjective and to opinion. Edited June 11, 2018 by Califorum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Piranha 25,786 Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 Small part of a good movie. Even long built outstanding careers have fallen hard by a bad movie or two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoconutCake 360 Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Tough choice, because bad movies can SOMEtimes be “good”... I’d have to say small part in a good movie, though. But at the same time acting throughout the entire movie sounds fun. Like I said, tough choice for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rainbow Dash 1,471 Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 If its like The Room levels of bad, then sign me up! My life is basically one huge blockbuster flop. Although, If i wanted to be serious about acting as a career or if the money is good then yeah, im all for a small part in a good movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gernia 690 Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 I'd prefer to be a small part in a good movie. Can't really give a reason other than I think it's better to a part of something that's memorable for good reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
