I suppose you’re right there - I was conflating Starring with Leading, which is different. He has a lot of starring roles, but only a few leading roles.

But its not like leading roles are the hallmarks of success, either. There are plenty of successful and iconic supporting/character actors out there who are absolutely successes and have raving fans. Its not a mark against his talent.

Late reply, but man I wish I had that skill. People have given me tips and tricks, I’ve watched YouTube videos, people have coached me through it on the grill and in the kitchen - without a meat thermometer, I can’t cook poultry to dave my life. Its always either raw or bone dry. But, with the Meater… flawless every time

I mean… he’s had plenty of starring roles, and his acting has won him both awards and acclaim. Requiem for a Dream, Mr. Nobody, Dallas Buyers Club, House of Gucci, The Little Things - and that’s not including his clunkers. He’s still an in-demand actor with 30 years of work behind him. Not everyone makes a career that good in Hollywood.

I think he’s an asshole. But he’s a talented asshole.

I also received a Meater as a gift - but I use it for basically any meat that goes in the oven or gets grilled. And I’ve found myself putting more meats in the oven so I can use it.

The thing is fantastic and has changed my life - especially when it comes to poultry
