Who's Your Favorite Actor?


Starscream

Recommended Posts

I'm not asking who's the most talented or who's won the most awards, just who you like the best of all time (any era). I don't have a number one, but I do have a top twenty.

1. Buster Keaton (great silent film comedian)

2. Bela Lugosi (got shafted too often in his career b/c he always wanted to make a dollar)

3. Boris Karloff (I like Lugosi better, but Karloff had much better roles)

4. Harrison Ford (Mostly b/c of Han Solo, but I haven't seen him do a bad job in any film)

5. Christopher Lee (The MAN! Hammer films was his forte, but he's been in numerous films. He holds the record for living actor in the most films)

6. Johnny Depp (awesome in any role!)

7. Lon Chaney Sr. (the man of 1,000 faces)

8-9. Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy (the original comedy duo)

10-13. Moe Howard, Larry Fine, Shemp Howard, and Curly Howard (the four stooges!)

14. Clooney (he plays the same person in every role, but he can be badass when he wants to!)

15. Leonardo DiCaprio (I used to hate this little punk, but as I've become older I have come to appreciate him in Romeo and Juliet, Titanic, Basketball Diaries, The Aviator, and many more)

16. Lon Chaney Jr. (a horror classic actor)

17. Liam Neeson (great actor and will be remembered for many different roles)

18. Joseph Fiennes (Shakespeare in Love and Elizabeth did it for me)

19. James Cagney (big mobster films in the 30s and 40s, but he also could play Shakespearean roles)

20. Lucille Ball (I probably should have put her as number one b/c of I Love Lucy, but her films weren't the best)

Once again, these are not picked b/c they are the most talented actors of their time nor have they won the most awards, but simply b/c I love the work they do and the characters they portrayed.

Who do you like?

    • I just want to see a big guy with an NFL certified cannon arm suit up for the panthers again. To me, it will show that they are at least  trying to take the QB position in the direction it needs to go.   Will he throw picks? Yes. Probably a hell of a lot, but (for now) I’m strangely ok with that… for now. I at least need to see a dude that CAN make the throws with some semblance of accuracy.  This is the time to see what the QB whisperer is made of. The offensive talent is there. It’s certainly better than most rookie/journeymen QBs will ever step in to. If he can get a random dude playing at a JAG level, then I might be sold.  Andy could really surprise in the Buffalo game. He (for now) still has enough arm for Tet and XL to show what they’ve got, but we all know it’s only going to be good for 3-4 games, max. He has vet savvy, and that does account for a lot. He also has a full week of practice with all the snaps to prepare.  My best case scenario going forward: Andy plays the next 2 games nobly (winning one would be a huge bonus) giving White a chance to learn some of the playbook and develop chemistry with the players. Serviceable Andy turns in to old man Andy in game 3 and White takes the field after halftime.  A high ankle sprain (lol, sure it is) is an injury that can buy the team a LONG time for BY to ride the pine…. Maybe even IR. His peak trade value is now. Get what they can for this albatross. He’s now shown that he can be a mid level backup which does hold a significant value for the right team.  Not even in my wildest dreams do I see White being anything more than a JAG, but that’s ok. JAGs with a big arm make great bridge QBs that at least won’t have your play makers stagnating. Keeping BY under center is a 100% recipe for stagnating high ceiling (Tet/XL) dudes and/or not allowing them to take the next step in their development. Why even practice the good half of the playbook if the QB can’t make the throw? After a while, you’ve now got high ceiling guys who can only run a limited route tree. No thanks. 
    • They both outstanding players and both had monster games against Jets.  We gonna need it again this week with the bills.  Go Panthers!!!!
    • Yeah okay fair enough.  Maybe the point is if you have a better system and players you can dumpster dive for a RB and if you don’t you have to shop top shelf. I dunno.    I would put my assets into the best OL I could get and let them make UDFA like Rico look like stars. As opposed to putting CMC behind a makeshift OL. And right now I don’t even remember who was on the OL when we took him, just sayin.
