"Favourite Actors?"

I know this has been done a hundred times before but I'd like to know who your top 5 favourite actors are.

I can guess stryke's:

Ben Affleck
Matt Damon
Linda Fiorentino
Alan Rickman
Jason Mewes

Am I right? :-)

at the moment I don't have a top 5 but I have a few will smith videos : bad boys, men in black, enemy of the state.
(I only said a few) I have watched independence day, wild wild west and six degree's of separation, fresh prince of bell air and that film with ted danson as the second hand car sales man and whoopi goldberg who thinks that ted is the sperm donor she had for her daughter.

I guess mine are:

- Alec Guinness
- Donald Pleasance
- Tom Hanks
- Harrison Ford
- Liam Neeson

Well I started the topic so I spam if I please.....HEAT RULES, HEAT RULES, HEAT RULES.

Sorry, I'm not setting a very good example here.

:-)

Sorry abour posting that twice. I initially wrote EdNorton, but changed my mind.
Must have accidentally hit post. Sorry again. It's unwarranted spam. As is DOGMA RULES! So does Heat, actually..

Muaha, you know me too well Ross. But no! I...must....have diversity...

5 - Alan Rickman.Brilliant in Dogma, Die Hard and Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves

4 - Chris Tucker. find the guy hilarious, especially in the two Rush Hours and The Fifth Element.

3 - Jason Mewes/Kevin Smith.I put these two together, and why? Well, if you can't answer that, be ashamed to call your self a film fan. They form one of the best duos in film history. I'll leave you to guess, no, know their screen names.

2 - Jason Lee.Funniest guy in any K Smith film. Um, I realise this is a bit of Dogma bias, but the next one isn't.

1 - Russell Crowe.No, not for Gladiator, although I simply love the film. No, those of you who have watched him as Bud in LA Confidental will know Gladiator wasn't his best film.

Anyways, I WAS watching Heat last night, and could therefore not reply to the outrageous comments by the right honourable Vottenator about my Dogma obsession.
*counts number of Dogma actors in top five*
Erm...

Muaha, you know me too well Ross. But no! I...must....have diversity...

Sylevster 'I sound like i've got a bad cold, depression and boredom, and going straight to video will be a success for my Get Carter remake, but i was in the Rocky films, so all is forgiven' Stallone.

Jimmy Stewart, cause you can't help but love him. He embodies a period of cinema that was so blissfully fantastic and was a bloody great actor at the same time. He is also the star of Hitchs two greatest works, Rear Window and Vertigo.

Following from that Hitch vibe, Carry Grant. Did cool yet funny like no one else at the time or since. Others that would be in the list but I couldn't be arsed typing about, Jack Nicholson, William H Macy and... ermmmm.... can't think of a fifth that should be seperated from a list of people who I like into a list of my five favourite, Macy was pushing it.

John Cusack: Thought he was brilliant in Grosse Pointe Blank and Hi Fidelity.

Robert De Niro: No explanation needed.

John Belushi: Damn funny guy, what can I say just watch Animal House and try not to laugh at this guy.

Kevin Spacey: No explanation needed just wathc The Usual Suspects or American Beauty.

What the hell is that 'if' doing in there at the end? Scrap the 'if'. :-)
