Best actor alive right now?

[sjwaste]

If it's someone else, feel free to fill in the blank.

 

[jlee]

Poll fail.

 

[sjwaste]

Nah, it's Connery. A more comprehensive poll would only put up inferior choices.

 

[Sea Moose]

jack nicholson

 

[villageidiot111]

Ian Mckellen

 

[sjwaste]

I'm just surprised that option 1 is winning.

 

[El Guaraguao]

where is the "for me to poop on" option?

 

[WildHorse]

[coldmeat]

Will Ferrell

 

[Locut0s]

Philip Seymour Hoffman.

The character's he embodies are so real, so vulerable, so hurt, you just fell like he is that best fried gone stray!!!

 

[lxskllr]

That's Mr. Hole to you....

 

[GodlessAstronomer]

Jack Nicholson and Leonardo DiCaprio.

 

[Leros]

I don't anything about actors, but I hear Kanye is the voice of our generation. When he starts acting, I choose him.

 

[cherrytwist]

That's a bullshit question.

As in best actor in overall career or present?

Currently acting or retired?

Females included?

Get back to me.

 

[ConstipatedVigilante]

yo sean connery, im really happy for you, and imma let you finish but Morgan FREEMAN is the best actor of all time.

This. QFT FTW

 

[miniMUNCH]

Anthony Hopkins needs to be in the mix somewhere as do Mr Depp and Daniel Day Lewis, among others.

 

[paulney]

I just want to let everyone know that Patrick Swayze died.

 

[InflatableBuddha]

Poal needs more Harrison Ford, but Connery is badass so I voted for him.

 

[angminas]

Gary Oldman.

Daniel Day-Lewis is not far behind, and Sir Ian definitely has his moments. Leo is incredible physically, but his diction is often distractingly amateur. Johnny Depp...I like the guy, and he's pretty good, but I'm still waiting to see this elite acting everyone talks about.

Overrated- Al Pacino, Robert De Niro, Anthony Hopkins, Jack Nicholson, Christian Bale, Christopher Lee, Kevin Spacey, Bill Murray

Underrated- Tom Cruise, Bruce Willis, Kate Winslet, Dennis Quaid, Brad Pitt, Tim Curry, Sally Field, Keanu Reeves

Untapped potential- Colin Farrell, Louis Gossett Jr., Harrison Ford, Patrick Stewart, Ralph Macchio, Nicholas Cage, Cuba Gooding Jr., Sean Connery, Morgan Freeman, Christopher Lloyd


Notes

I didn't say all the overrated were worthless and all the underrated were gods, or any other retarded nonsense. Don't even start being utterly stupid.

Acting is a combination of physicality, intelligence, script memory, ad lib ability, charisma...a whole list of things. Being great at one or two of them doesn't necessarily mean you're great overall. Nor does being very good at a lot of them.

Figuring out how William Shatner can sometimes be so good when he's usually so bad is the real reason they built the LHC.


And, just kidding about Keanu Reeves :sun:

Tom Cruise and Keanu Reeves are underrated? :laugh: When the best role of your career is playing yourself (asshole movie producer) I'm not sure that qualifies for any award recognition.

Tom Cruise has been in lots of cool movies but is not an underrated actor. He does his parts just fine which is all that needs to be done for the types of movies he's always in.

Oh and if said he was kidding about Keanu.

That would be option 1.
