PICS or didn't happen.

i'll post one in the post your pics thread sometime soonish

nicolas cage

watched the life aquatic for the first time in a year and cried twice. gonna have to agree with bill murray.

actually nicolas cage is genuinely shaping up to be one of my favorite actors. and i bet he's just going to keep getting better.

jack is up there

tom hanks is probably an average/good guy but he's easy to hate on based on the faggoty films he does

he's at his best in philadelphia or something

oh yeah.

though best experiences imo. often come with movies where you don't know the actor from before, and their role is unaffected of previous roles. Heath Ledger in Doctor Parnassus is one example - good movie but couldn't take my mind of mister why so serious.

just a few I can think, there's probably more I like:

jack nicholson

edward norton

bill murray

morgan freeman

bill murray acting? he plays the same role in every movie! he's like schwarzenegger, but with words and more cynical. that's not acting. hell, tom cruise is even a better actor than that. my vote goes to heath ledger.

steve guttenburg

My most favourite actor of all time would have to be mr. Sidney Poitier.

my favorite is clint eastwood.

i consider al pacino one of the best.

Laurence Olivier,Micheal Horden,Richard Burton,Morgan Freeman,Alistair Sim,Marlon Brando,Karl Malden,Charles Laughton,Woody Strode,Steve Macqueen,Edward G Robinson,James Stewart,Vivien Leigh,Ann Margret,Peter O Toole,Kenneth Williams,Joyce Grenfell,John Geilgud...the list is endless.Theres no way I could pick one.

If they HAD to be still alive Id have to say Kenneth Brannagh (although Ed Norton is shaping up to be a fine actor.)

Steve Macqueen

/thumbs up.

Also:

Ed Norton

John Cusack

Gary Oldman is my favorite actor, no contest

Peter Sellers would be too if he didnt do so many bad comedies, if i could erase those from history he would be my favorite actor

Glad to see so much love for Bill Murray. I watched Rushmore yesterday and I absolutely loved the scene where he comes running out of Rosemary's house like a happy retard

This scene:

Modern generation: Bary Pepper, Edward Norton, Paul Giamatti

i liked Bill Murray better when he wasn't only in dramaedy movies, when he was just straight up funny with no emoness layered on top

i like that one movie that bill murray was in where he keeps repeating the same day over and over. what was that called...?

groundhog's day

Bill Murray in Caddyshack.

Richard Burton (another amazing voice)

Sean Penn.
