You have to hand it to Gerard Butler, as even in a Romantic Comedy he can make at least palatable to the men who are forced to watch them. In “Playing for Keeps” Butler portrays George Dryer, a former Scottish League Soccer player, still living in his past glory with the hopes of becoming s sportscaster for ESPN. Although this is really about relationships, there are enough sports references to keep us interested, though we don’t think that even the alpha male from 300 is enough to generate an induction.
The Bullet Points:
Movie Appeared:
Playing for Keeps (2012)
Actor:
Gerard Butler
Role Portrayed:
Former Scottish League Soccer Player/Youth Soccer Coach/Sportscaster
Why You Should Vote For Him:
It may be a chick-flick, but Butler transcends that and is likable to all.
Why You Should Not Vote For Him:
This really isn’t a sports film.

We know that this was a stretch but was there a funnier scene involving a Baseball Umpire than when Detective Frank Drebin (Leslie Nielsen). There isn’t, though whether that deserves an induction is up to all of you!

Let’s make sure we have this correct. There is a nominee on this ballot that has Christopher Walken as a Chinese criminal boss with Table Tennis relations? Come on, how do you not vote for this?

Kevin Hart may be the black Vince Vaughn. We know their styles are completely different, but when you watch a Vince Vaughn film you know exactly what he is playing, regardless what his role is. The same goes for Kevin Hart.
In Grudge Match, Hart played Dante Slate Jr., the son of a crooked boxing promoter, who is following, though somewhat unsuccessful to date in his father’s footsteps. Hart gives us a few laughs, which is what you would want from him, but is this worth a nomination?
The Bullet Points:
Movie Appeared:
Grudge Match (2013)
Actor:
Kevin Hart
Role Portrayed:
Boxing Promoter
Why You Should Vote For Him:
Hart was funny in the role, and showed just the right amount of empathy to make him likable.
Why You Should Not Vote For Him:
It is Kevin Hart acting like Kevin Hart.
