I never actually played the games, but I'm assuming Kevin Spacey and Kit Harrington phoned in their respective Call of Duty roles

idk if I'd say that he was phoning it in, but I don't think Jon Snow is the best choice for a COD villain or whatever game he was in

Yeah and instead of getting him to do new lines for the DLC they replaced him and then went back and replaced his old lines too

That said, don't forget that a performance is not just the actor, but also the writer and the director as well.

While Yakuza on the PS2 had a cast that should have been great, the direction and writing was so subpar that the whole thing ended up being laughable.

Johnny Depp, Orlando Bloom, and Keira Knightley were dreadful in Kingdom Hearts 2.

Just joking since they didn't actually play those characters in the game.

"Phoned it in" implies she is a competent actress otherwise to begin with.

Matthew Perry just isn't the same anymore. It seemed like he was headlining a new sitcom every year for a while because he used to be Chandler and was the worst part of the shows (from what I saw). I'll always love Chandler (especially the early seasons) but I can't think of anything good he's been in since Friends ended.

People thought he did bad in the role? Been awhile, but it always seemed fine to me.

To each their own but Dinklbot is FAR better IMHO.

He actually adds to the role and his reading of most lines definitely has a charm and interesting qualities to them. But line you said, you cant give a good actor bad dialogue and expect a masterpiece either way.

Whereas Nolan north 100% phones it in, basic inflection, textbook Nolan North sounding voice. Hes in fucking every video game, why shouldnt be be the default voice.

Dinklage gets a fuckin bad wrap and I think most people took the news stories on face value without really forming their own opinion.

But seriously, Bill Murray in the Ghostbusters video game. IMO it didnt sound like Peter Venkman - it sounded like Bill Murray doing a forced impersonation of Peter Venkman, if that makes any sense.

This, I personally feel she gave it her all but obviously voice acting isn't her forte.
