Just 3, though. Who would you pick?

In no particular order:

1. Jean Reno
2. Clint Eastwood
3. Steve Buscemi

Sorry no suggestions, just commenting that on the new "xfinity" box I had hooked up yesterday, they have this feature. Record shows by actor / director.

definitely seen this feature on dvr's.

I would like to set a filter to never record anything with Nicholas Cage, ever, even if I tell it otherwise.

Harrison Ford
Tom Hanks
Tom Cruise

That would probably give you a collection of the best movies of the past 30 years.

Many actors have crap movies too. So it would be pretty hard to find actors I'd want in the list, especially since I usually have all the movies I like on DVD already anyway (Mel Brooks' movies for example). Sean Connery has a lot of decent movies indeed though, might put him in the list. But besides that? No idea.
