Johnny Depp (plays an eccentric/pirate or a variation of an eccentric/pirate in every movie though Donnie Brasco proved he can be good)
Nicolas Cage (acts like he's on cocaine in every movie)


Agreed on every one of them, but was Cage ever rated? To me he's always been a punchline for a terrible actor like Keanu Reeves except Cage is actually watchable. I liked Depp in Benny and Joon (good Chaplin/Keaton impersanation imo) as well as Fear and Loathing but overall he's overrated. Pitt was quite good in Se7en as well. Other than that they're all average or bad.
