1. Channing Tatum: Do people actually take this guy seriously or is he just eye candy? Even then I have to say that Matt Bomer and Donald Glover are both more delicious than Tatum is in Magic Mike 2. (Although Donald Glover doesn’t take his clothes off even though I paid $11 for the ticket!) But I digress — Channing Tatum cannot act. In fact I don’t even think he attempts to. The closest he’s come to acting was in the overdramatic and syrupy chick flick based on the Nicholas Sparks novel Dear John (and don’t get me started on Nicholas Sparks). But for the most part he either strips or just stands there like a statue while Jonah Hill gets the laughs. He has very little charisma or stage presence. Once you get past his sausagey appearance he’s pretty boring.
