AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

I was gonna do of all time but that'd take too long for me so I'll just do those that are still breathing and are still doing films (Sorry Connery & Nicholson)

Still working on the list but once I have it done I'll start posting.

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

Not sure how can do a list without Connery. Jacks biggest role is that of being a Laker fan.

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

I mean since Jack has stopped being an actor lately. Obviously Jack is best know for the Joker, A Few Good Men where Tom couldnt handle the Truth and Heres Johnny from The Shining.

He just hasn't found a role he is interested it doing. I guess he's not retired and I could include him but still the list is called "Working Today" and he hasn't done a movie in 5 years. With the amount of crap coming out lately I wouldn't be surprised he has no interest in doing anymore of them. Maybe if a great script comes along he'll be back.

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

Does Gene Hackman also have that list problem cause he retired as well.

if they are not working anymore(announced their retirement or have not done movies or any sort of acting in the past 4 years) than no they won't be include

IMDB Page -> http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000867/

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

Excellent start to your list...I think Bateman is one of the most underrated actors working right now.

I suggest you to go to theater for watch The Gift !! it's my favorite performance from him and the movie is awesome

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

Bateman's best role is Michael in Arrested Development. The only ones I've seen there are Horrible Bosses and Juno, not a fan of either.

Yeah I heard about that movie, people were saying it is pretty decent

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

The Gift was decent but his best role easily.

He actually said in an interview that no one wanted to do Horrible Bosses 2 lol.

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

Also, are the popcorns for his performance or the movie itself?

Note: Just because I don't like the work some of these people are in doesn't mean I didn't think they were stand outs in them.

IMDB Page ->http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1218607/

the popcorns are for the movie, if they are under fav performance that just means I liked him/her in the movie itself, even if the movie sucks

Oh I didn't like HB2 at all but I thought HB1 was a fresh comedy and I found it very enjoyable, one of my favorite comedies.

Dont know why that got so much play it was a sports joke cause everyone knows Jack almost owns the Lakers. But some actors are not like Christopher Lee god rest him that work until they die. Jack use to do that one movie a year deal like Jodie Foster. Jack is like a Gibson no matter what you miss that actor in movies.

I'm going to make a movie where Jason Bateman is a young actor's mentor, and he'll refer to him as Master Bateman.

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

Now that I think about it, I probably did put Oldman too low, oh well if I ever do another I'll put him higher

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

Just out of curiousity, is this a strictly male actor list?

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

Been a big fan of Michael Pena ever since Crash.

Gary Oldman is amazing...for my money, the 2nd best cinematic chameleon in the business. He used to be #1, but I've recently given #1 to Jared Leto. Love Nicolas Cage, thought he was brilliant in Face/Off. Haven't seen a lot of Chris Pine's work with the exception of his Cinderella's Prince in Into the Woods, a performance I found a little over the top.

Nah there's women in here as well

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

Jackman is pretty good. He was the best thing about Prisoners IMO, which I wasn't a big fan of.

92. Margot Robbie *Speak of the devil MissVicky ;)*

Favorite Movie Performances:
The Wolf of Wall Street (2013)

About Time (2013)

Suite Francaise (2014)

IMDB Page -> http://www.imdb.com/name/nm3053338/

Hugh Jackman should be much higher. He's the ultimate triple threat. He can act, sing, and dance, and it doesn't hurt that he's hot as hell. I can't wait to see him as P.T. Barnum in The Greatest Showman on Earth.

It's hard to believe that the guy in this video was also Wolverine, but it just proves how talented he is.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3zU2IcVzbc

It was strictly a curiosity question. There are very few actresses I give a crap about.
Margot Robbie isn't one of them, but she was really hot in The Wolf of Wall Street.

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

My favorite Hugh Jackman performance was as Curly in the London revival of Oklahoma!...talk about a perfect marriage of actor and character. There was talk a few years ago of Jackman appearing in a remake of Carousel as Billy Bigelow, but it never came to fruition. He is a fantastic singer and I could listen to him sing all day. I also have to admit that I really liked him in Kate and Leopold.

I loved him as Curly in the London revival of Oklahoma! too. I heard about the possible revival of Carousel, and I was very disappointed when it didn't happen. I'm still holding out hope for it in the future because I've read that he really wants to do it, so maybe it will still happen someday.

I really wanted to see him when he had his own show on Broadway, but I wasn't able to go.

I liked him in Kate and Leopold too. It's one of my favorite rom-coms. Have you seen him in Paperback Hero? (It was on YouTube, but I don't know if it's still there.) I liked him in that too.

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

Actually, I've never heard of Paperback Hero, I'll have to check and see if it's still on You Tube.

The Wire (2002-2008)

IMDB Page -> http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0318821/

It's an Australian film from before the X-Men movies. I found it when I first became a fan of his and I was looking for more of his movies.

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

I personally think Aiden and Hugh Jackman are too low. But least made the cut.

I have never heard of Be Cool until just now lol, I guess I could check it out

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today

I quite like Jason Bateman. Check out Disconnect if you get a chance; he's very good in a dramatic role.

Nic Cage is about 90 spots too low.

I like Oldman, but always think of him as overrated. You're missing his best performance btw, in True Romance.

I always like Pena, Craig, Jackman, and The Rock.

I don't care anything about the acting ability of Robbie or Lilly but they are awesome.

DUDE.

YES.

Oldman is a good actor and I too like him, but I find he can be too over the top at times. I'm glad someone else finds him a bit overrated.

Aidan Gillen is an excellent actor. The Rock Is quite possibly the worst actor who ever lived :p. Evangeline and Daniel are both ok , can't think of anything that would make me a fan of them though.

I just have The Rock on the list because, I know he isn't a good actor, but he elevates every movie he is in with his charisma, and I've always liked him ever since his wrestling days.

Yeah this list isn't just to show who I like, I'm hoping you guys could give me suggestions on what other stuff they've done. I saw the trailer for Moneyball but I'm not a baseball fan so I never watched it. Even though I like both Hill and Pitt.

shh******tttt so hooottttt!!!

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

Hill and Scarlett are great. You should watch Ghost World.

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

I always liked Scarlett Jo, but especially after Under the Skin.

You don't have to be a baseball fan; it's not really a sports movie.

Oh and I love Scarlett, even though the only movies she's been in that I really like are the superhero movies and The Horse Whisperer.

To be honest here ScarJo in my opinion is what made Winter Soldier go. I am sorry but Evans is too flat on his own. If not for Scarlett as Widow and Mackie as Falcon the movie would have sucked.

I'm not a fan of the hero Captain America in general, and Evans isn't terrible as him I just never liked Cap. I hated Captain America: The First Avenger and I didn't even watch The Winter Soldier because I have no interest in Captain America's story. I will be watching Civil War but that is more so to do with all the other heros that are gonna be in the movie aside from Cap.

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

Hate Will Ferrell. I do approve of Vince Vaughn, though. He's had quite a few misses, but he's done enough that I love that I can overlook them.

I recommend watching Clay Pigeons, if you haven't seen it. It's the movie that made me love Vince Vaughn.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Pe6q3iybBw

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

Scarlett!!! :love::love:

Leo's gal from Wolf of Wall Street isn't very hot or a good actor IMO- she just looks like your everyday slut.

I love Edgerton, Ferrell, and Vaughn, although the latter two haven't been making good movies lately. For Vaughn, I echo Miss Vicky about Clay Pigeons, and also check out Swingers and Return to Paradise.

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

Catching up on this list a little late, but will be here for the rest of the way. Looking forward to it. :)

This I agree with her true test if she is anything more would be the role of harley quinn something nothing like she has played. Quinn could keep from being typcasted

I've been a fan of Kyle Chandler since I saw him in the movie Pure Country way back in 1992. I also loved him in the TV shows "Early Edition" and "Friday Night Lights".

It's nice to finally see him get some well-deserved recognition. :up:

Your missing Pirates Of The Caribbean COTBP she played Annamaria the one who slapped Jack over stealing her boat

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

Johnson pretty much had a bit part in Be Cool, and still managed to stand out among a huge all-star cast.

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

Nice to see some love for Sam Shepherd...not a lot of discussion about him on these boards.

Re: AdamUpBxtch's Top 100 Favorite Actors Working Today
 

I liked him As Pei In the Streets Of Laredo. The James Garner turn as captain Call.

I quite like Zoe; she was terrific in a small role in Out of the Furnace.

I also like Chandler and Rooker.

Not a fan of Mark Strong.
