I kind of agree with you on DiCaprio, but he always picks great mvoies to be in. To me it's less about how good of an actor they are (even though I think they are all great actors) and more about what kind of movies they choose to be in, and they all have a good track record.

Leo's got Inception, Titanic, Catch Me if You Can, and Shutter Island, The Departed, The Man in the Iron Mask, Blood Diamond, and The Quick and the Dead.

Bale's got The Dark Knight, Batman Begins, Terminator Slavation, The Machinist, The Illusionist, The Fighter, and American Psyhcho

and Murphy's got Batman Begins, The Wind that Shakes the Barley, 28 Days Later, Red Eye, and Inception.

Whenever you go into a theater and these one of their names in the opening credits, you know that more than likely it will be a good movie.

^ Actually, Bale was in The Prestige and not The Illusionist (that was Edward Norton). Both are excellent films though!

Oh Wow, I forgot the most the most legendary of all.

Clint Eastwood.

Yeah, DiCaprio gets top billing in Hollywood these days, I just don't see why that is...He's friends with Scorsese and Spielberg that has something to do with it, but hes definitely no De Niro or Pacino, I don't see much talent myself.

I agree on this one, he's great.

Denzel Washington! None of his movies have disappointed me yet.

 

[SparkyMaddie]

Cuba Gooding Jr,getting better all the time if that's possible..Every film I see lately amazes me

 

[Diane_Windsor]

Hubby and I both have favorite thespians, but we don't neccessarily watch every movie or TV show that they are in. Here's a short list:

Clark Gable - first ever crush and the best looking man who EVER lived or EVER will live PERIOD. I can get lost by just looking at his picture. He is the standard by which all men's looks are judged by.
Tyrone Power
Errol Flynn
Laurence Olivier

James Stewart
James Earl Jones
Elizabeth Taylor - RIP
Christian Bale
Tim Curry, Alec Guinness, Michael Caine
Alan Rickman, Helena Bonham Carter, Maggie Smith
Johnny Depp, Robert Downey, Jr.
Sean Connery, Daniel Craig, Timothy Dalton, Roger Moore, Judy Dench, Christopher Lee
Angela Lansbury - she is incredible in The Manchurian Candidate
Elijah Wood (been following him since he was a little kid)
Dwayne Johnson - good looking Miami Hurricane, and surprisingly talented for a former wrestler
John Candy
Dan Aykroyd
Eddie Murphy
Chevy Chase
Beverly D'Angelo
Christine Taylor (first saw in the Nick series Hey Dude)

Notice any trends

For my mother it's definately Mark Hamil (Luke Skywalker).
