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?

    • Yeah. As a wild card team. Washington won the division at 10-6.
    • no doubt but flip that.   The current system insures that there are "regional" games in the early weeks. maximizing the reach of playoff football.  If all of the WC weekend for a conference took place on the west coast they are reducing the "reach" of their hype machine.
    • Hard to say with London--he never ran--combine or pro day.  Here is what AI says, and it is always 100% accurate: Drake London's 40-yard dash time at the NFL Combine was not recorded because he was dealing with a fractured ankle at the time. While he didn't participate in the 40 at the Combine or his pro day, his coach said his 40 time was estimated to be between 4.4 and 4.53 seconds. Some sources also list his 40 time at 4.58 and 4.6 seconds Unless you are running 9s all day, top end 40 speed is rarely reached.  I have always looked at the 3-cone drill.  At his pro day, TMac ran a 6.86--pretty good, actually.  For context, it is faster that Rome Odunze (6.88) who ran a 4.45 40.  Odunze is 6'3" and weighs 216, fwiw, and is considered a very good route runner with no wasted motion.  Mike Evans 3-cone was 7.08.  To put it in a broader context, through 2022, with all NFL prospect 3-cone drills combined, a 6.86 puts TMac in the.89th percentile-  Now consider the fact that he is 6'4" and 220.   We might have something here.  '
