    Take Stiffler off the list and you're off to a good start. ;)

    I'll also add Denzel, Tom Hanks, and Samuel L Jackson.

    Leonardo DiCaprio, in order of favorite roles, then film rating

    Blood Diamond - 8/10, Everything about the movie was epic
    Titanic - 9/10, Obviously, one of the best on screen love stories...ever?
    Gilbert Grape - 8/10, Great flick, shows his diversity
    Departed -10/10, A masterpiece
    Basketball Diaries - 8/10, Shows he was one of the best teenage actors of all time
    Catch Me If You Can - 7/10, Fun, like-able movie
    Gangs of New York - 8/10, Daniel Day-Lewis was better, but he was great
    Aviator - 8/10, Did an excellent job as Howard Hughes
    This boys life - 7/10, Another teenage role, pretty good but not my favorite
    Body of Lies - 7/10, Good shoot-em-up operatives type movie
    Romeo+Juliet - 7/10, Weird role, but a guilty pleasure

    Everything else i either didnt see or like.

    He has two movies coming out soon though, Shutter Island (which im not too hot on) and Inception, which is supposed to counter Avatar.

    Caleb,
    Have you seen "Revolutionary Road"? The movie itself was decent enough, but nothing great. But Dicaprio & Winslet were paired up again & both gave great acting performances.

    Yes. It was weird to me. I liked Leo/Winslet again, but the movie itself bored me. I know it wasn't supposed to be anything too flashy...it was just alright. 5/10.

    You should move your comment of B-Ball Diaries up to the Gilbert Grape comment.
    I believe he did a grand job in that movie, and was cheated out of the award for it.
