Top 5 actors of our time:

"Bulldog, how can you knock on Leonardo DiCaprio and think Heath Ledger is something great?

Let's look at a little list here:

Leo:

• Basketball Diaries
• The Departed
• The Aviator
• Gangs of New York
• Blood Diamond

Heath:

• The Order
• A Knight's Tale
• 10 Things I Hate About You
• The Patriot
• Casanova

The ONLY strong performance that Heath ever gave was in The Dark Knight, and all ANY actor has to do is fart with the makeup on and he's gonna be good.  The Joker isn't a HARD character to play.

He even sucked in I'm Not There and Lords of Dogtown!!!  The only bad credits that Leo honestly holds to his name are Titanic and The Beach!

"

Gary Oldman - fucking genius...shame he was in a shitter like Fifth Element though

Edward Norton - pretty good....

Will Smith - is a hit with the kids due to his nice clean rap. Workout scene in every film.

Mark Wahlberg - when the dood is given a good role, he still manages to make it SUCK ...and when he's given a bad role, hit just makes you want to commit suicide.  He's got a really bad selection of movies...although italian job is awesome.

Zac Efron - It's the start of something new.

No it's not. He's a one dimensional psycho. Typical DC character."

"Playing Ledger's version of the Joker is incredibly easy, but he made everyone think it is demanding emotionally...Ledger locked himself in a hotel room for a month to fool the media into thinking it was difficult or something to try and get into the character. Being a drunk pillpopper with no future ahead of him and losing an Oscar that he for some reason thought he fucking deserved probably is what caused him to over dose."

Thoroughly fix'd now."

Fix'd as well."

Okay, seriously. Heath Ledger was GOOD IN THE DARK KNIGHT. He fit the role well, and he had great timing with all his lines, as well as developing a great physical presence.

You can't say that! He's dead! Give him the respect he deserves. Heath Ledger was the greatest actor alive ever and anyone who says otherwise didn't understand The Dark Knight. The heavy handed metaphors went right over your head."

lmao. No.

"Well, I'm pretty sure the only actors/actresses of "my" time are Dakota Fanning and Haley Joel Osment, so I'm just gonna say my top 5.

1. Anthony Hopkins (Hannibal Lector, for you noobs)

2. Edward Norton (I don't know exactly why, but his performance in Fight Club is just awesome)

3. Kathy Bates (From Misery)

4. John Cleese (You're mother was a hamster and your father smells of elderberries)

5.Jodie Foster (She's a great actress, and she's really hot)

So yeah, the last one is just kind of a "had to do it because I couldn't think of another one," but Jodie Foster is a real babe.

"

Dakota Fanning.

So you just ignored things I said to make it sound like you had a point? Well done.

I know. My point, originally, all those pages back, was how people could deny Efron's talent when he is obviously a star in the making."

"Okay, seriously. Heath Ledger was GOOD IN THE DARK KNIGHT. He fit the role well, and he had great timing with all his lines, as well as developing a great physical presence."

Heath Ledger was a fucking failure, and he realized it way too late...just like Kurt Cobain.

"HandsomeDead said:

Yes. It was well done wasn't it, just like what you are doing ¬_¬.

And your point may be that you think he is talented, but he does not have a body of work to put him in the top 100 actors of all time... no matter top 5; and thusshouldn't be discussed here."

"Heath Ledger was a fucking failure, and he realized it way too late...just like Kurt Cobain.

Was he good in The Dark Knight?  Yes.  Did he play it well?  Yeah, I thought so.  Oscar-worthy?  Eh, I'm borderlined on it.  Regardless...he was still an absolute shit actor, and the fact that everyone makes him out to be some spectacular thing is just beyond me.  Maybe if he had a few more years to convince me, sure...but he sucked ass in Brokeback Mountain.

Also, since I just brought that movie up, I wanna say this:  yes, we get it - it's a movie about gay cowboys.  Regardless of that fact, your narrow-minded attempts at shutting a movie down for that reason are fucking weak and stupid.  Priscilla, Queen of the Desert, had Rik Mayall dressed in drag, and it was a fucking amazing movie.  Willem Dafoe played a gay guy in Boondock Saints, and people love him for it.  Also, it's a script written by Larry McMurtry, who is an amazing author (most notable for writing Lonesome Dove).  Therefore, I show anything this man writes a TON of fucking respect.  I looked at the movie for what it was:  a love story.  Unfortunately, it was a shitty love story.  Ennis and Jack were two selfish assholes that ended up causing more trouble than they were worth as human beings.  Ang Lee did a good job of building tension between the two, but Jake and Heath had to rely on the director to build it and couldn't even emote it themselves.  It's a travesty of a film.

So if the only reason you can bash the film is because it happens to be a love story about gay males, then fuckin' die...because your narrow-minded bullshit is worthless at this point in time.

Zac Effron is ace, October 18th, represent!

Ok, I'll take this opportunity to expand my list (In no particular oreder):

"Clint Eastwood (Mostly due to awesome)"

Nicholas Cage haters need to watch The Rock and The Weather Man. Seriously, I hated him too until I saw those films and now i'm almost a fan. Also, Clint Eastwood's new film, Gran Torino, looks amazing. It's riduclous how he can be so old and still such a genuine badass.

I enjoyed Lord of War.

"BoG said:

"Clint Eastwood (Mostly due to awesome)"

Although he may play the same damn character every time he acts...he's fucking amazing at that character, and there's always a subtle difference to each of them.

BoG, you are full of win for that one.

You get double win for hating Nic Cage as much as me.

And you lose all the win because you like Nicholson.

Sowwy.

"Cuckoos Nest, The Shining... You can't tell me Ncholson isn't a good actor.

As for Cage, Weather Man was good, but I can never forgive the man for Ghost Rider."

Jakob, In all honesty, I am appalled that you think The Shining is a bad film. That perfect performance in The Shining is enough to warrant him as one of the all time greats. Seriously, how the hell did you come to that conclusion!

Nicholson just annoys the living fuck out me, not sure why though.

"Jakob, In all honesty, I am appalled that you think The Shining is a bad film. That perfect performance in The Shining is enough to warrant him as one of the all time greats. Seriously, how the hell did you come to that conclusion!"

Dude, I know someone who thinks Scarlett Johannson is the greatest actor of all time, it's called an opinion. 

"Jakob, In all honesty, I am appalled that you think The Shining is a bad film. That perfect performance in The Shining is enough to warrant him as one of the all time greats. Seriously, how the hell did you come to that conclusion!

EDIT: The Shining is a horror film.

Proof: http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/movies/a134119/exorcist-tops-best-horror-film-poll.html?imdb It clearly mentions The Shing came close second in top horror films of all time.

But she does have NO ass."

"Besides, every actor in existence gets shitted on because of the Last motha fucking Samurai that is Tom Cruise."

-_-"

I quite enjoyed Phantoms, but only because of the novelty of Jay and Silent Bob...that's about it.

Tom Cruise sucks, however his performance in The Last Samurai and Born the 4th of July was fantastic

MOTHERFUCKING COLLATERAL

Shitty movie

Tom Cruise = shit.  Period.  End of discussion.  Next actor, plox.

I JUST LIKE IT CUZ TOM CRUISE ACTUALLY TOOK THE TIME TO GET WAY INTO GUNS AND IS ACTUALLY REALLY GEWD AT IT SO GO HIM

"Tom Cruise = shit.  Period.  End of discussion.  Next actor, plox."

"jakob187 said:

Eh...Sean Connery?

I like him :P"

I'd do him too, maybe we can do him at the same time. From different angles of course

I really like Tom Cruise. I don't see where all the hate comes from besides the whole scientology thing.

I liked Finding Forrester too and the movie that got him the oscar (don't remember the name right now)

I'd do Edward Norton and whoever plays Dr. House. I have weird man crushes on them.

"HandsomeDead said:

Because most of the movies he has ever been in suck balls?

Top Gun, Risky Business, Cocktail, War of the Worlds, Mission Impossible 2...ugh...horrific films that are no good for anything but ignorant people.  I liked Last Samurai, but it DEFINITELY WAS NOT because of him.  It was actually because I dig Edward Zwick's movies.

"

"I enjoyed all of those movies as well as Rain Man and Collateral before the piss poor film ruining ending. Top Gun, especially, that was just a badass bit of fun."
