    I don't know about the "Best" but I really like just about any movie with Nicholas Cage

    Marlon Brando is #1 for me.

    As for modern day, Daniel Day Lewis.

    Denzel Washington is my favorite actor of all time. Argueing who is the best in such a subjective field with literally no stats, I find stupid. So I am going with my favorite instead.

    You people are naming alot of good actors, but I think you are missing a few.........
    Charlton Heston
    Marlon Brando (yes you named him)
    Jimmy Stewart
    Burt Lancaster
    Kirk Douglas
    James Cagney

    These are truly some of the greats !!!

    Really?

    He's starred in less then 15 movies and has 2 Academy Awards for best actor to his credit.

    Last of the Mohicans? Gangs of New York? There Will Be Blood?

    side note...Me and Hooker agree. 2/01/10...note this day in history.

    Have you seen this movie? What did you think of it?


    To me, it was HANDS DOWN the WORST movie I have ever agonizingly finished from end to end. I kept waiting for it to take a turn for the better, then it ended.

    #1 The Departed
    #2 Blood Diomand
    #3 There Will Be Blood

    All i have to say is, "I DRINK YOUR MILKSHAKE!"

    Now that you've mentioned The Departed, I can't believe I forgot Matt Damon! He's incredible.

    I'm honestly confused here guys. What part of that slow pointless movie did you find entertaining?:confused:

    I swear I thought it was a joke when that movie was mentioned earlier.
