How did Gary Johnston not make the list?!

" In the midst of the chaos, I could swear that I heard my goats screaming for help. As quickly as they had come, the infidels were gone. It was on that day I put a jihad on them. And if you don't believe it, then you'd better kill me now, because I'll put a jihad on you, too." --- Gary Johnston...actor.

Need I say more?! :)



That was pretty funny:D:D:D

Christian Bale has some serious intensity. Suspect his star is taking off also.



I never seen The Machinist but he dwindled down to 128 lbs (he is 6ft) to play the role. The doctors recommended he didn't go below 135. Yeah, that's pretty intense.

That's really your dad? He is one of the finest character actors working today.
I always prefer the supporting cast to the "lead roles".

Edward Norton is a good actor, but he needs another great film besides "American History X" before he gets an upgrade to Great Actor.



Well I think Fight Club makes him worthy of the upgrade.

Im kinda surprised no one has said Tom Hanks. or maybe they did and I missed it.

Damn it... you're right. He is one of the best ever... So many great movies, and in most genres too...

I loved that show...when ever my friends ask me to describe my parents I always say this......Remember Seinfeld?...Georges' parents? Yep they are like a mirror image..

Fight Club! His face, his play, his voiceovers, all of it just works! Great actor. :)

I'll probably be boo'd out of the thread for saying this, but I think Sean Penn has developed into one hell of an actor. The "IS THAT MY DAUGHTER IN THERE??!" scene in Mystic River couldn't really have been more believable, as was his performance in "I am Sam"...and all this from Jeff Spiccolli? The guy's damned good.

You're right, Sean is a great actor. I liked him in Fast Times at Ridgemont High and in Bad Boys... :D

But he has other great roles... like Dead Man Walking, I think that's the name...
