he was good in that football movie, the replacements.

sean william scott as stiffler in the american pie series.
jim bruer in half baked.

I totally agree about Sean William Scott as Stiffler. I really doubt anyone else could have pulled it off as brilliantly as he did. He's awesome. The only problem is that now he'll probably get stuck with that type of rolls.

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Joan is the woman...loved her in In and Out. John...loved him in Say Anything. I spent most of the early 90s looking for my own "Lloyd Dobler."

Steve Buscemi, Thora Birch -Ghost World
Emily Perkins, Katharine Isabelle -Ginger Snaps (as if anyones seen it)

Crap...we can't forget about Kevin Bacon...with the 6 degrees game and all...Gotta say I loved him in Footloose, but then I'm an 80s baby and that movie was great back then! Also loved him in JFK.

Sean Penn was perfect as Spicoli in Fast Times at Ridgemont High.

Christian Slater was perfect as the bad guy in Very Bad Things...as a matter of fact, all the actors cast in that movie were great. Loved Cameron Diaz's role, and loved her freak-out scene at the end...too funny!!!

Al Pacino in Scent of a Woman
Jack Nicholson in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
Dustin Hoffman in Rain Man and Midnight Cowboy
Burt Reynolds in Deliverance
Micheal Moriarty and DeNiro in Bang the Drum Slowly
Henry Fonda in On Golden Pond
Sally Field in Norma Rae
Robert Duvall in Apocalypse Now, and in Tender Mercies
Tom Berenger in Platoon, and in Eddie & The Cruisers
Kate Hepburn in The African Queen

Mostly olders movies but I have to see a flick more than once and let it settle over a few years before I really can say it's a great performance. And also cuz I'm a geezer.

Thanks for the heads-up d14, my bad.

I'm so glad you mentioned those films...all great choices...Mr. Geezer...LOL

Why thanks Laurie. Here's one for my favorite Texan-
James Dean as Jett Rink in Giant.
07/13/2004 02:31:54 AM · #70
And here's a famous Texan and his role for you...

Tommy Lee Jones in Men in Black (of course, he has dozens of other wonderful and fabulous roles as well)...but who else could have pulled off the lines like:

"Swamp gas from a weather balloon got trapped in a thermal pocket and refracted the light from Venus," "Fasten your seat belt, please," and my personal favorite, "All right, go put your thing down..."
07/13/2004 02:46:23 AM · #71
Didn't see MIB cuz Will Smith is on my Avoid At All Possible Cost list. But Tommy Lee is cool, liked him in Coal Miner's Daughter, Cobb, and The Fugitive. If I remember correctly he was in the Lonesome Dove mini series too.

Sher9204 - I'm with you on the Hammer films - a class act through and through. Also:

Warren Beattie and Faye Dunaway - Bonnie & Clyde (1967)
Anthony Hopkins - Silence of the Lambs
Chris Reeve - Superman
Gene Hackman - Lex Luthor in Superman (and anything he does)
Ian McDiarmid - Emperor in Return of the Jedi (genius)
Gene Wilder - Charlie & the Chocolate Factory (genius)

Robert DeNiro in The Scent of a Woman

I hate correcting people but the credit goes to Al Pacino for his role as Lieutenant Colonel Frank Slade in Scent of a Woman.
07/13/2004 04:09:37 AM · #74
Tom Hanks...period

He is my all time favorite actor
07/13/2004 04:12:11 AM · #75
Joe Verses the Volcano gives me a [censored]. Tom Hanks at his finest.
