who is your favorite actor?

[TheQuestioner]

Mine is Roma Downey from touched by an angel. By the way, what do you think of her as the mother of Christ in the new Bible series? Has anyone seen it?

 

[Titanic]

Too many I like. I just couldn't pick one. I am myself am trying to be a actor.

 

[Penumbra]

Gary Oldman

 

[Sunstone]

Gary Oldman

Isn't he kind of old, though?

Isn't he an actor old or Not?

Well he's Gary the old man. ^_^

He's my favorite actor because in my view he is the most skillful at blending into a character. He's a marvelous villain actor but can do almost anything, including various accents. Among a ton of other things, he has been:

-The sociopath primary villain cop in Leon: The Professional
-The crazy evil futuristic socially awkward primary villain in The Fifth Element
-The Russian lead terrorist in Air Force One.
-Protagonist Sirius Black w/ long hair and tattoos in the Harry Potter films.
-Protagonist Commissioner Gordon from the Dark Knight trilogy (good guy with a mustache, helps Batman)
-Protagonist from Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
-A voice actor for Russian characters in Call of Duty games, and other voice acting in other games

Plus he wrote and directed the #4 all-time ranking movie in terms of the number of times the f-bomb was said (and #3 for f-bombs per minute), which is just a weird and awesome thing for such a distinguished actor to have on his resume.

Awesome! I didn't know that much about him. Thanks for filling me in!

Also Great in Romeo Is Bleeding, True Romance, and Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead

If I had to pick one actor say, post 70's, I'd say Bruce Willis.

Ever seen the Book of Eli, with Denzel Washington, Gary Oldman, and Mila Kunis? Gary Oldman was a solid villain.

Wasn't my cup of tea but I love the actors and the movie was decently made; I think you might like it more.

I like him too. One of my favorite's. My father let me watch Die Hard with him when I was about seven years old, so for me that will kind of always be the quintessential action movie.

Plus I've liked his work over the next two and a half decades after that as well.

Saw it and didn't think much of it just based on lack of credibility. As far as the actors: anytime I see a good actor in a what I think of as a bad movie I try to do them a favor and forget they were in it. Just my way of being a loyal fan.

Ah, I figured I might not like it just because of the whole religious theme that is lost on me even though I love the actors, but maybe it was kind of bad.

 

[Draka]

It's hard to pick just one. I really like Alan Rickman, Matt Damon, Johnny Depp, Alexander Skarsgård. It really is hard to nail down just one answer.

 

[shayanjameel08]

Vann Dam is my favourite

 

[Revoltingest]

I always like this topic.
From comedy to masterful leader to action heroics to menacing violence, this chameleon can do it all with incredible ability.
Daniel Day Lewis......
Abraham Lincoln in "Abrahan Lincoln".
Daniel Plainview in "There Will Be Blood" (Liked him. Hated the movie. Took too long for the blood, copious though it was.)
Bill The Butcher in "Gangs Of New York".
Hawkeye in "The Last Of The Mohicans".
Christy Brown in "My Left Foot".
Tomas in "The Unbearable Lightness Of Being".
Cecil Vyse in "A Room With A View".
Johhny in "My Beautiful Laundrette".

 

[Twilight Hue]

I always liked David Carradine even in light of his "happy" death. kung fu and circle of iron RIP.
I also find Tom Laughlin of Billy Jack fame top of my fave list as well.

So many more.

 

[Idris]

Difficult as I constantly change my mind due to seeing them in reality. But Michael Fassbender is very good and a nice person off camera...

 

[Sand Dancer]

Old: Jimmy Stewart

New: Tom Hanks

 

[Jayhawker Soule]

Excellent.

 

[Revoltingest]

I've long thought that Bryan Cranston is one of the greats.
