..... should definately be added to my list ...

I can't believe i left out Clint.

i actually dont feel that way about him ..
he's made some movies that i could have gone without seeing ...

his performance is solid ...but you always know what you're going to get ... ALWAYS.

Same goes for De niro and Pacino ..

i also think these 3 guys (who you would think should be on my list) have made films in the past that i didnt want to see - despite the fact that they were in them.

i cant say that - yet - about any of the actors athat are on my list..

I can't believe I left out Geoffrey Rush.

I should probably go ahead and add Lance Henriksen, too!


D'oh. Brad Dourif needs to be there too. Sheesh.

Wow I think they may have all been listed. Except for Christopher Walken, he's the man.

I can think of only two from Clint that i didn't like.

The Gauntlet & Pink Cadillac.

But i understand where you're coming from.

Morgan Freeman is pretty solid as well.

lance henricksen, Geoffery Rush, and Christopher Walken .. all good choices I'd have to add as well.

i didnt care for Firefox, The Rookie, and Tightrope either ..

or the one where he was a country singer ..


another example ..

i've had no desire to see Bridges of Madison County despite his participation.


I dont like M. Streep at all so that doesnt help much.

Agreed.....this list just keeps getting bigger.

it begins to explain why i have so many damn movies.

Evil Clowns
...no, wait....
That's not what this thread's for....
I don't watch movies for specific actor's...
Later....

I thought about it and I'll add Denzel Washington to my list as well as...

James Caan
Geoffery Rush

Those two are also in the 'Stuck in the middle' category.

i watched Elf because Jimmy Caan was in it ..

or...perhaps your HUGE movie collection is compensating for "other" shortcomings.:D

you are completely correct ..

I had a terrible childhood :D

Me too, but only because it came on Encore a couple days ago and I saw his name on the info page. Somewhere down the line I would've rented it or bought it real cheap.

But like I said(even though I think he's outstanding) I never see him and feel the need to make it to the theatre or the video store on release day.

On the other hand I guess it still counts because no matter how far down the line, wether I rush to the theatre or not ect. I still end up watching there movies because they're in it if for no other reason.

Tony Jaa


.... That´s about it..

John Ashley
Jurgen Prochnow
Barbara Eden
Christopher Lee
Ann Blyth

but especially

John Ashley, because

he da man.

Funny. Of those people mentioned, i only know Christopher Lee by name.

Are the rest of the bunch from "Melrose Place"?;) :D

i almost added him ... but i no longer trust his judgement after Louse of the Dead...

In no particular order:

Christopher Lee
Peter Cushing
Oliver Reed
George Clooney
Hugh Jackman
Frank Langella
Ian McKellan
Viggo Mortensen
Christopher Walken

He was ok in that tv movie about Arnold.(Prochnow)

thats a solid list too ...

its funny but not many people (myself included) has many females on their list. interesting.

I guess i could add Jennifer Lopez to mine.
(i could just turn the sound off and watch anything she's in)

Do actors/actresses who have died count? If so, here's another list:

Katherine Hepburn
Cary Grant
Lawrence Olivier
Clark Gable
Roddy McDowell
Spencer Tracy

Hmm, only one woman.......interesting.

yep .. dead counts ...

i would pick Audrey over Katherine myself ..

Believe it or not, I've never seen any Audrey Hepburn movies.

ducks and runs for cover

what the ..... ???


on your way home tonight .. i beg of you : rent My Fair Lady !!!!

then get Sabrina, (the origional), Wait Until Dark, Breakfast at Tiffanys, Paris When it Sizzles, Charade ....etc

She was magical ... no doubt about it.

I've got Jennifer Connelly and Hilary Swank.

-Keira Knightley
-Annette Bening
-Uma Thurman
-Renée Zellweger
-Ziyi Zhang

and of course Audrey and Katherine.


All great actresses in my opinion.

I'll add them to the queue at Netflix right now. Any others?

Oh man, I forgot about Annette Bening - I agree with you Austin, she's great. And Uma Thurman and Renee Zellweger. I've only seen Keira Knightley in Pirates of the Caribbean, so I can't say yet whether she's one of my favorites. Don't know Ziyi Zhang.

I didn't know which one to quote so I'll just send this to urgeok:

I lied - I saw Robin and Marian with Sean Connery (another actor to add to my list).

If you're into Asian films you should check some of hers out. Only American film I can think of is Memoirs of a Geisha and Rush Hour 2, I'm not 100% sure but I think everything else she's in is Asian.
