Personally, my favorite actor is Matthew Perry. I think some of the best movies hes been in would be 'The Ron Clark Story' and 'The Whole 9 Yards'. And of course, he played Chandler in the popular T.V series that went for 10 seasons 'Friends'.

I don't think he is the best actor of all time, but he is just my favorite because he is just... hilarious.

What are some of your favorite actors? What movies do you think they've performed their best in? What do you like about them?

Just some things for you to think about when posting. :)

Mine would be Adam Sandler

my favourite was the first half of the movie where he makes like an oil hose as his rude part and a police bat his rude part sorry I can't use spoilers but it is so FUNNY!!

Bruce Campbell because he is the definition of manliness.

Donald Pleasence because he is the definition of skill.

Will Smith is becoming a very good actor imo. I liked his performance in Pursuit of Happiness and Hitch. I Am Legend was decent as well.

I too think Will Smith is a good actor. I especially enjoyed his performance in the Pursuit of Happiness and I Am Legend.

I think another one of my favorite actors would be Bruce Willis. Since he's like, an action movie buff.

I'm gonna have to go with Will Smith too, it's been cool growing up with him and seeing him mature as an actor, not to mention he strikes me as a really nice guy (Scientology issues aside)

Bruce Campbell (too manly) Favorite Movie from him is OBVIOUSLY "Army of Darkness"

Tom Hanks (come on he's too good!) Favorite Movie from him is "Saving Private Ryan"

Two is too much already.

Christian Bale is in my opinion one of the top actors around at the moment, especially given how dedicated he appears to be to his roles. For me his best performance was probably American Psycho, but there's a hell of a lot more quality in his other work. His work with Nolan is amazing too, admittedly there might be a little bit of bias there, seeing as Nolan is also my favourite Director, but The Prestige is fantastic. He's pretty good in Empire of the Sun aswell.

But if anybody comes close to Bale, it's my other favourite actor. Bale and him are the only two actors at the moment who will really get me interested in a film. Admittedly Bale being in Terminator 4 is a bit of a shocker.

Anyway, how has nobody else also said

One of the greatest actors ever. Dollar films, Dirty Harry, Unforgiven, Heartbreak Ridge to name but a few.

As for Dylan Moran, funny, but not best comedic actor ever.

Today I saw Iron Man. Robert Downey Jr. performed very well in it and I hope to see him in more movies like this.

This one is tough for me. Denzel Washington is good in every movie he's in. I'd give him my serious actor vote and Adam Sandler my comedy actor vote.

Clint Eastwood is awesome.

I also like John C. McGinley (who does an amazing job on Scrubs but unfortunately has not been in a whole lot of movies) and Sylvester Stallone.

I've watched Shia LaBeouf since he was on 'Even Stevens' and he has matured in both his looks and acting skills. And Christian Bale is BRILLIANT! He's made really good films, and he's the MASTER of accents. He has used a different accent for EVERY film he's made up to date. I find that to be pretty remarkable.

my only problem with christian bale is his mouth-constantly-open kind of look.. along with his upper lip that fits along with that pretty well..
although if what you say is true.. that's pretty impressive.

Omg DEFINITELY Johnny Depp. My favorite movie of his is Finding Neverland, and it's also my favorite movie of all time. I like him because the characters he plays are always very unique as are the movies he does. I haven't seen Sweeney Todd yet but It looks cool and I can't wait. He's an amazing actor.

Jason Stathem. Have you ever watched his movies? He wouldn't need to speek, and he would be the most bad-*** person alive.

And you have to go with Matt Damon. Rounders is one the best movies of all time, not to mention he was amazing in The Departed.

Adam Sandler is a comical genius. He will be going to hell for his comedy, but who cares. The dude is ****ing hilarious.

Jim Carey is awesome cause he can do a serious role, such as The Truman Show, and The Number 23, but obviously his best roles were in comedys, like Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls (My personal favorite movie), Liar Liar, and the Mask.

All of them are 222222 good. But my vote goes to Chris Farhley. His SNL stuff mixed with his movies will forever make people laugh. If he hadn't died, I bet he would be the most popular actor of our time.
