my favorites are

tom hanks

denzel washington

al pacino

robert deniro

john turturro (the guy makes pure gold).

[Westside Steve]

I'll think on that.

I have two categories.

Great actors and great movie stars.

Often they overlap.

Examples:

Great actors:

Kenneth Branagh

Gary Oldman

John Malkovich

Great movie stars

Bogart

John Wayne

Sean Connery

Crossovers:

Jack Nicholson

Di Niro

Brando

I'll think more soon.

When you think about it there are a lot of good actors out there.

[LeBrent]

1. Tom Hanks

2. Jack Nicholson

3. Steve Carrell

4. Emilio Estevez

5. Eddie Murphy

This isn't my most talented list, just my personal favorites. Top two are easy, the rest will probably be different tomorrow.

[The Gipper]

John Wilkes Booth (he acted like he did something good for the South. He didn't, it may have set the south back 100 years)

Ronald Reagan (he was especially good at acting like he had Alzheimer's in depostions)

Linda Lovelace (how can you not be impressed?)

Jim Nabors (No one uttered "Golly" like he did)

Richard Nixon (that line of his, "sock it to me?" was killer):

[Westside Steve]

Kos

Good call on Daniel Day Lewis.

Great actor.

Denzel Washington is a good mention too.

Like Michael Caine he's good in everything he does but never does a flashy role.

For different generes, like Comedy, I think Chris Farley stole the show when he was one the TV, there wasnt a moment that dude didnt make you laugh. He wasnt here long but he was the best during his time.

Val Kilmer, Tom Hanks , Robert Redford and Di niro are my favs for everything else.

Samuel L Jackson

Robin Williams

Edward Norton

Christopher Walken

Mark Wahlberg

Don Cheadle

Robert Downey Jr

Clint Eastwood
