So, thought of this new game.

Simply vote- for an player in the movie industry, director, actress, writer, whomever we decide to choose to vote on.

I will name a player each few days, and you reply with their 'breakout' role

votes will be tallied to determine the players points


First up:

In which film did JIM CARREY breakout in?

Ace Ventura: Pet Detective

Ace Ventura

Wasn't it The Mask?

Not quite. AV:PD came first. The Mask was his second big hit.

Actually it depends of the country. In France THE MASK was released before Ace Ventura, and if you ask any frenchy what they discovered Carrey in, they'll tell you The Mask.

Im going with Ace Ventura as well.

Ace 3
the Mask 2

Ace Ventura wins!

Next up:

Winona Ryder

I know she was in beetlegeuse first but gonna say Edward scissorhands

Has to be Heathers. It didn't make much of an impact in theatres but it has a strong cult following.

Actually yeah, Heathers was her breakout role.

Im gonna say - Beetlejuice.

and six- no takes backsies - but ill let this one slide

was hoping surfer would chime in....

anyhoo

Heathers wins!

Next up:

Michael Fassbender

Well for me it was Hunger, a film that suddenly made people realise who he was, and out of that he got a lot of great roles. I actually don't remember him from 300.

Yeah I'd probably say Hunger as well.

Inglourious Basterds. Hardly anyone saw Hunger.
