Your most watched film(s) with actor/actress x

Tools    





So I wanted to start a discussion regarding which films we have seen the most starring x or y actor/actress. Not which one we think is best, and in some cases it might not be our favorite starring said actor/actress, but for whatever reason, it's what one has seen most.

Some quick examples I'll give:

Eddie Murphy: Mulan (I prob saw it more times in Spanish though, growing up)

Robin Williams: Aladdin (part of my childhood)

James Earl Jones: The Lion King & the original Star Wars Trilogy (again, childhood)

Leonardo DiCaprio: Catch Me if You Can (started watching closer to adulthood, maybe early adulthood, one of those that just invites rewatch. My next viewing of it might be sometime in February)

Arnold Schwarzenegger: First 2 Terminator films (started watching maybe sometime in my teens, though I did see a bit of T2 in my childhood); True Lies and Predator not far behind.

Jeremy Irons: The Lion King (childhood)

Tom Hanks: Catch Me if You Can, The Green Mile (though these days I don't think I'll watch it often). I also don't know how many times I saw the first Toy Story.

Liam Neeson: Star Wars I: The Phantom Menace (for some reason I loved rewatching this as a youth. Even today, acknowledging it's flawed, I can still get a kick out of it. However, here's a clear example where favorite =/= what has been most seen)

Cate Blanchett: IJ and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (don't care what people think, I find this film entertaining)

Harrison Ford: Original Star Wars trilogy.

Yaphet Kotto: Live and Let Die (007)

For Sam Jackson it's gotta be one of the Star Wars prequels. Prob Episode I, but it's hard to remember.

Definitely The Matrix for Laurence Fishburne.

For Craig, it's gotta be one of the first 3 Bond films.

Catch Me if You Can and A View to a Kill (007) for Christopher Walken.

For Glenn Close, it's prob 102 Dalmatians. I suspect I wouldn't like it much today, but it got plenty of play in my youth.

Pretty sure it's Jurassic Park for Laura Dern.

Prob the remake of The Parent Trap for Dennis Quaid.



For Sam Jackson it's gotta be one of the Star Wars prequels. Prob Episode I, but it's hard to remember.

Definitely The Matrix for Laurence Fishburne.

Harrison Ford: Original Star Wars trilogy.

I'll throw in Christopher Lee; though I've seen The Man With the Golden Gun (007) 3 or 4 times, I suspect I've seen him in Star Wars Episodes II & III more.

Sean Connery: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989)

For Mr. Connery, it's either this one, or one of his first 4 Bond films.

My love for the 007 franchise must be obvious by now.

Robert Redford - Barefoot in the Park

Doris Day - The Pajama Game

Hugh Jackman - Kate & Leopold
Nice to see some love for these underrated and sometimes forgotten performances
