Why didn't Jon Hamm become a star? He's got the looks and clearly can act, what stopped him?

>goy
he is a star moron
dude was the lead of mad men
Mad Men is like The Wire, people who know about it love it but 99% of people never heard of it.
Comparing Mad Men to The Wire is ridiculous.
I used to go to Mad Men parties where all the women would dress up in outfits and serve 1960s foods. Like, every new episode. That doesn't exist for The Wire.
Mad Men is a much better show but, just saying.
Fricking normie
>I used to go to Mad Men parties where all the women would dress up in outfits and serve 1960s foods
That has literally never happened.
I used to go to wire parties where everyone would dress up and act like Baltimore scum. Yes there was george bush and bird flu.
AMC was basic cable, wider reach than niche HBO. The world where nothing is basic was to come.
Not israeli
What about this guy? Why does his name have two Ns in it
Handsome guy who can't act. They threw him into a few roles but he's just Mad Man.
He also has a history of being a prick both in the past and the present.
Unfortunate typecast. Especially because he's apparently a really nice guy outside of the movies where he's a massive douche.
Would have made a better star lord than crisp ratt
He's generally an unambitious guy. Also, dyel af.
He got typecast really hard and nobody cares about his comedy roles anyway, damn shame cause he's awesome. I suppose he also doesn't care anymore tbqh.
Like Christopher Meloni.
Coincidentally both have humongous porn star penises
He is a star but became one too late.
>clearly can act
Lol, lmao even
Hes been terrible im literally every role since mad men
This, he’s literally just a charismatic handsome guy, not an artist.
He can only play himself and even then, he can be terrible at it sometimes.
this.
Uh no moron, he's nothing like his Mad Men character irl. If anything he's bad at playing himself and that seems to be all he wants to do
yup and he was so one-note in mad men. his whole thing is go monotone with a drawn face while saying stuff like
>i just want you to know
>that i'm going to enjoy destroying you
HACKY HACKY actor right from the start... definition of a mimbo
He was terrible in mad men too
Typical, mindless, knee-jerk Cinemaphile contrarianism. Fricking yawn, do better.
something's missing from this thread... can't quite put my finger on it
Supposedly hes kind of an butthole in real life
I respect how you remain loyal to your waifu even after knowing that she dates black men. Other waifufriends couldn't handle this kind of information in the past. I sure hope that you don't act like our fallen Bjorkfren at some point.
lol you're gonna break his brain; gadon-lunatic I appreciate your relative class and relaxed attitude, and like you much more than the more insane asiatic-spammer. You're still fricking crazy though - you do know this?
Why didn't he become a car?
It didn't work that great for the Jackass guy and Paul Walker
The truth is the kind of mature setting he would work better in simply doesn't exist anymore. That's why he shined in Mad Men, that laid back atmosphere of masculinity has been replaced by teenage schizoid coomerism.
I felt he perfectly captured the man of yesteryear in Mad Men.
>shifty unclear past
>angry dad vibes
>constantly simmering
>alcoholic
>bad husband, bad father
>impostor syndrome
>to his employees he's a pater familias or some old testament god that you never know if he's going to praise you or tear you down
etc..
the problem is that he likely fell into the wrong crowd after Mad Men as I keep seeing him try to do comedy movies
He looks like he needs a proper Michael Mann movie role or a Michael Clayton of his own.
But yeah, he likely insulted some Hollywood bigwig and they never gave him a chance apart from small clownish roles.
It's because those are the roles he wants to do, he literally wants to be a comedian, all he does is hang out with comedians and go to comedy clubs
The age discrepancy would upset many. This best not be a romance, coal miner
huge penis, makes everyone uncomfortable
He wants to be a comedian but he isn't funny.
I'm of the impression he hated being a struggling actor. When he finally got his big break it turned into a set-for-life payday.
After Mad Men ended, he didn't want to go back to chasing anything career-wise. He hated that and he doesn't need to do that any more.
He has money and would rather enjoy his life. Pursue acting for his own enjoyment.
I would consider him a model for true success.
>Pursue acting for his own enjoyment
I do recall Rob Corddry saying that he got Hamm to appear in his series Childrens Hospital for peanuts because Hamm didn't really care about the money or any "is this the right move for my career?" kind of thing, he just cared about whether the part looked like it'd be fun to play
the gadon spammer is a cuck
big surprise
That woman does not understand Jon Hamm's penis
Typecast and couldnt break out of it. After Mad Men he went into "le funnyman commercial guy" to shake off his MM role, but i dont think it worked well.
Doing commercials and voice-overs is easy money
Bad reputation and makes Steve Carell look like a genius at picking scripts. Gandolfini was also unremarkable outside of his main role.
Me.
It was me. ME, all the time, all along. I was the fly in his ointment, I was the author of all of his misfortune. I did it, all of it. By myself. ME. IT WAS ME HAMM. MEEEEEE.
Bruce Campbell syndrome.
He was going to be the lead in Fincher's Gone Girl but Mad Men S7 got in the way. That would've have been the push he needed
damn thats a frickin bummer
bravo weiner
would've been kino instead of the charisma void that is Affleck
Frick that I wouldn’t have seen it if this homosexual was in it.
didnt The Hamm rape college freshman during greek week just for fun?
Didn't this dude do wiener and ball torture on one of his sorority pledges?
Just a little hazing, bro. The young are soft.
Based
I remember seeing that he lit some dudes crotch on fire but it didn't seem like he actually damaged the guys goods. Idk tho.
Some kids at a college near me forced a kid to drink a handle of vodka and gave him permanent brain damage/left jhim paralyzed. Now that's fricked.
Oh well, in a situation where you you're liable to be drunk and naked I always tried to be the drunkest and nakedest. Fortune favors the bold.
>mods will ban the Sarah Gadon poster but not the kpop poster
really makes you think
He decided to do cringe comedy, also got passed over for Iron Man, but he'd be no good at it since they wanted quippy homosexual Iron Man and not something actually good.
too handsome. like classically handsome.
my hanicap grandfather would watch bulletproof monk every other day. surprised that didnt do good for its time.
>He's got the looks
He got all his critical acclaim about his acting from Mad Men. And now that hes not sucking wieners trying to win an ocsar 'to prove his worth as an actor' he clearly is just taking roles he would enjoy playing or have fun in. The last few years of his acting looms like hes having a blast regardless.
Gee, I wonder why
What did Cinemaphile think of him in Curb?
I’m seeing double!
Four Larrys!
He was in the biggest movie last year.
>Jon Hamm, character actor
>but the only characters he plays are himself and le ironic self-parody
How does he do it?
>Relegated to a "oh it's that guy" actor
kek
He did that well, delicate performance
Seems like a ripoff of milton from office space
He is a star, he’s in all kinds of shit.
>b-but he’s not an A-list movie star!
Nobody is an A-list movie star anymore. Cruise was the last one and even he can’t guarantee hits now. Chris Pratt has been the lead in three huge movies/movie series, but who goes to see movies just for him? Nobody, he’s a franchise babby.
He will always be Don Draper. I think he would've played a great live action Batman though.
He gets a shit ton of comedy roles.
He’s funny as frick as the bunker cult leader in the Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt
I liked him as archangel Gabriel in good omens 2
Particularly the scene with the resurrection of jobs children and then later the scenes of him hooking up with cutie lord of the flies beelzebub
He's lucky he still has a career considering he almost killed a guy in college
He was never a good actor. But he played Don well because Don was always acting poorly anyway.
He's too hammy
