The Greatest Actor Of All Time

[Modest Man From Mandrake]

I used the top 100 so it will have to be a three part poll. After one week I'll start a new poll with the number 1 pick from each of the three polls. I put the choices in alphabetical order. Their order in no way reflected there possible position in polls.

 

I did several searches for this before starting this poll. I was surprised that there wasn't a greastest actor of all time poll already.

 

For me this was the hardest to choose an actor. I went with Nicholson

So damn hard, but I think Ian McKellen has had some amazing performances.

I went with Dustn Hoffman, this was EXTREMELY hard to pick. Dustin is just amazing, from Tootsie, to Midnight Cowboy to The Graduate to Rainman and on and on. Just brilliant!

[JohnnyBlaze]

Yah, tough to choose but I think I'm going with Gary Oldman. He seems more flexible than many of those on that list.

Clint Eastwood, Robert DeNiro and Sylvester Stallone are my favorites.

Speaking of Sly, I just watched Demolition Man which had him as a 20th century cop fighting in 21st Century California against Wesley Snipes who stole the movie as Simon Phoenix. Denis Leary was classic in it as well as Edgar Friendly.

[The Rocinante]

No Morgan Freeman OR Vincent Price?

 

Blasphemy!

 

EDIT, I should probably read stuff first

Went with Christopher Walken, thought he was great in Deer Hunter and A View To A Kill. Really knows how to play a sinister bad guy.

I picked Anthony Hopkins Yeh Silence of the Lamb's + more

[Jack Aubrey]

"I'm walking here! I'm walking here!"

 

"Of course, I'm an excellent driver."

 

"Mrs. Robinson, you're trying to seduce me."

 

Dustin "Dusty" Hoffman may not be the best on the list, but he's always been a fav of mine.

[2112-Rob-2112]

Out of this list Jack Nicholson wins my vote.

[Prime Mover and Shaker]

I picked Ford. He's done some great stuff... I do wish he would expand just a bit more.

After Tomorrow @ 8pm I'll narrow it down to the top 3, for the final Greatest Actor of All Time Poll. In the event of any ties, I'll add both people. So best case scenario it will be three in the top and final poll. Worst case scenario it will be 6 in top and final poll. Unless of course all three present polls have a 3 way tie for first. Then the last and final greatest actor poll would end up with 9 choices....

 

I crack me up.
