Think of his roles in Fight Club, Crazy in Alabama or Formula 51 and when he comes on the screen you really notice his presence. Each of those characters were as different from each other as could be, yet they were all good characters for Meat to perform. Many leading actors are locked into a certain type of role and don't get many opportunities to play a variety of characters.

Just my take on the issue.
