Just a few films Kevin Bacon has done. You be the judge.

Frost/Nixon
The Woosman

Mystic River
Hollow Man (yeah, yeah whatever)
Stir OF Echoes
Wild Things
Sleepers
Apollo 13
Murder In The First
The River Wild
The Air Up There
A Few Good Men
JFK
Flatliners
Tremors
Planes, Trains and Automobiles
Quicksilver
Footloose
Diner
Animal House
and Friday the 13th just to name a few. Now they may not all be winners but the man works and works a lot. You don’t see Feldman’s resume looking like that do you? I mean come on, the guy hasn’t had a hit movie since maybe 1990 with TMNT’s? Bacon is an A lister. I think that pretty much solves that argument.

Did everyone forget about Footloose? Bacon is a big actor, granted he is a dick. Looked to me that he rolled his eyes when Jay mentioned F13. He just comes off like a total ass.

Bacon was in the movie “Tremors”, which is a sci-fi flick that also features Fred Ward and Michael Gross. He was in “Mystic River”, but I’m pretty sure everyone knows that.

Feldman had a tv show recently not some sub par band that packs them in shitty venues just because kevin bacon is in town.

I noticed that Kevin Bacon didn’t even think the first Friday the 13th did good. A little bit after Leno mentioned that they came out with a new Friday, Bacon said “They still haven’t gotten it right?”

Yeah, I am unsure of what to think about Bacon. Granted I don’t know him, but this is the only notable film (besides Stir of Echos/Hollow man) which both sucked- that I can recall his face in. I suppose he was okay in “Friday 1″ though-he was low key and it worked since he only got killed anyways… What else is he really notable in? Oh wait isn’t there a recent movie called “Death Sentance” he’s in? Or is that (hopefully) someone else?

“Have you seen the movies that Kevin Bacon is a lead in?”

Exactly. He’s the lead in movies.. unlike Corey Feldman :)

Whoa, gotta say I agree that I don’t get all of this Bacon hate AT ALL. It’s like he came to the majority of the posters front door steps here, and pissed in people’s flower gardens and shit. I’m sorry but I quite like the guy, though I don’t care about his Bacon Bros. musical group, that’s fine and that whole side project is his passion & business, ect.

Glad he still smiles about it these days …

Pretty sure Corey Feldman is my pick for biggest actor to come out of the series.

Have you seen the movies that Kevin Bacon is a lead in? God I don’t even want to start with his folk-rock-country bullshit that him & his brothers do or whatever. I never even heard this said music & I know its that bad.

Feldman had more acting chops at age 10, bitch.
