So just name actors who have never in your opinion has never been in a bad movie. OR You could always name a actor who has always been good REGARDLESS of the state of the movie. We'll get a rough list of 10 then poll to get number 1.

Anna Staff Posts: 2,716 Hogwarts House: Ravenclaw Who is YOUR Doctor?: 6 (Colin Baker 84-86) Current F1 Driver?: Fernando Alonso	10 Actors Oct 18, 2013 19:31:37 GMT Post by Anna on Oct 18, 2013 19:31:37 GMT Edward Norton, never been in a bad movie (that I've seen) and always top quality. Karl Urban, even when the movie was so-so he's always great. Anthony Hopkins, makes every movie he's in. I'd also agree with de Nero he steals the show whenever he's in it. Alan Rickman can steal a scene in a heart beat. Christopher Lee.... Well just Christopher Lee.

We'll do actresses after or start a new thread? Don't get me wrong I hadn't forgotten them just wanted to make sure we didn't do too much in one thread. Others that I have thought of : Liam Neeson, Ewan McGregor, Geoffery Rush? We do seem to be going for younger actors, I say young I mean we haven't got any of the classic actors like Chaplin or Brando in there. Ohh and another I love is Ralph Fiennes. So the list of nominated so far looks like this : Robert De Nero Edward Norton Karl Urban Anthony Hopkins Alan Rickman Christopher Lee Ian McKellen Tom Cruise Brad Pitt Robert Downey Jr Liam Neeson Ewan McGregor Geoffery Rush Ralph Fiennes

Like I watched Lord of the Rings when I was young/teenager and then though "hmmm that guy was alright" so watched other things with him in. Him being Karl Urban. When I was younger I had little say in what I saw, and my family never really did watching classics or things like that so anything I've really seen anyone in would be from 80s on wards. I mean I know of Charlston Heston or however you spell his bloody name because Planet of the Apes was remade by Tim Burton so I watched that and then watched the old ones, I don't like him though think he's hammy as heck but my mum loves him (and if she bothered to log in once in a while would vote for him ) but I can safely say (and I was only saying this 10 minutes ago to David) that I've never seen Chaplin in anything, I've seen Laurel and Hardy because its been put on TV and I love them so went looking for them but I never see Chaplin movies on TV and I wouldn't spend any amount of money on one just to find out I don't like it. Maybe because I don't have much money. Empire Records is probably one of my all time fav films. Only brought it because Rory Cochrane was in it as I loved him in CSI:Miami. I'm not AGAINST watching older films or things I haven't seen before but I'm more likely to watch things within the last 30 or so years.

After all our age group doesn't really fluctuate on here we are all still in our 20s maybe Rick is in his 30s I don't really know, but so far all the choices have been modern actors and the greats of a modern era, all of whom are still acting. I guess there isn't much we can do about that! It wouldn't be right just to name great actors because we feel they should be in a list of great actors after all to us they might not be great actors.

Never seen him in a bad movie! He usually makes the movie. Also I quite like Michael Caine .

Pete Starting your own clone race... Forum Idiot Posts: 255	10 Actors Nov 11, 2013 0:39:19 GMT Post by Pete on Nov 11, 2013 0:39:19 GMT Marlon Brando. I personally loved him in a lot of films. Daniel Day-Lewis is probably one of the greatest actors of all time. Jeff Bridges is a favourite of mine. Clint Eastwood? He's pretty much one of the longest lasting and greatest actors surely? My mum always loved Laurence Olivier, have to say he had a lot of talent. Charles Chaplin and Humphrey Bogart too. Two of my favs not on that list yet are Robin Williams and Philip Seymour-Hoffman. Always in great films them two Ohhhh ADAM WEEEEE!!!

I don't want this to sound rude but I'm surprised you've seen films with some of those actors in. I haven't that is for sure! Is this just a gap in English/American media viewing? Though I have to say that Philip Seymour-Hoffman is a very underrated and wonderful actor. Even though I just posted the list I'm adding Tommy Lee Jones and Edward Norton. Two great actors that have never done a bad film! We'll give this thread another few days maybe before we start polling and such? Robert De Nero Edward Norton Karl Urban Anthony Hopkins Alan Rickman Christopher Lee Ian McKellen Tom Cruise Brad Pitt Robert Downey Jr Liam Neeson Ewan McGregor Geoffery Rush Ralph Fiennes Tom Hanks Michael Caine Marlon Brano Daniel Day-Lewis Jeff Bridges Clint Eastwood Laurence Olivier Charles Chaplin Humphrey Bogart Robin Williams Philip Seymour-Hoffman Adam West Tommy Lee Jones

We'll shorten it down and then rank them
