Line 31:
*** Given that von Sydow was capable of hamming it up when required, (''Prepare her for our '''pleasure!!''''', anyone?) it's probably the latter.
* Anything [[Ed Wood (creator)|Ed Wood]]'s ever done. ''[[Glen or Glenda]]'', especially.
* Pretty much everyone in ''[[Dungeon Siege|In The Name of the King]]'' takes it seriously, even the hammy villain. You have to wonder if the all-star cast noticed that their director was [[Uwe Boll]]. Regardless, everyone makes a fine effort... we even get to see <s>[[The Lord of the Rings|Gimli]]</s> [[John Rhys-Davis]] as a wizard! And [[Mathew Lillard]] try to be a menacing corrupt royal.
** [[Jason Statham]] was probably the only actor in the movie to make an genuine effort at good acting. [[Ray Liotta]], [[Leelee Sobieski]], [[Burt Reynolds|Burt (freakin') Reynolds]], [[Kristanna Loken]], [[Mathew Lillard]], [[Ron Perlman]]... none of them even attempted to give the movie a common accent. At least Liotta and Rhys-Davis did give a fair amount of [[Ham and Cheese]] to show that they knew how bad the movie was.
* Although it isn't a strictly ''bad'' film, [[Roger Ebert]] noted that in ''[[Jurassic Park|The Lost World: Jurassic Park]]'', Pete Postlethwaite was the only cast member who seemed "convinced that he is on an island with dinosaurs, and not merely in a special-effects movie about them." Unsurprisingly, his [[Great White Hunter|character]] is arguably [[Ensemble Darkhorse|the most memorable]]. After working with Postlethwaite, [[Steven Spielberg]] called him "the best actor in the world".
