Nobody picked Tom Cruise?
He had great performances in Magnolia, Born on the 4th of July, Vanilla Sky, Jerry Maguire and The Last Samurai, etc.
??? I thought this was a thread about actors. Cruise belongs in the Movie Star thread, but it's an easy mistake to make. The media does it all of the time.

More that I probably won't remember until after I post this.
Kevin Spacey is probably my favourite. I loved him in The Usual Suspects in particular, though he's great in a lot of other stuff too.
William H. Macy is another good one, his defining role to me was in Fargo, he just plays a pathetic loser so well (I wonder what that says about him).
Ed Harris I like a lot, he was really good in Pollock and though he's not the leading man in too many films I think he's a really good actor.
I wasn't a big fan of Gladiator, but I though Russell Crowe's performance in A Beautiful Mind was amazing. He was good in The Insider, too.
Robert DeNiro goes without saying really, but I'll add that I loved him in Raging Bull anyway. That might be my favourite perfomance by an actor of all time.
Al Pacino as well, I think he was in this movie called The Godparent, or something.![]()
As for television actors I love watching Hugh Laurie as House and I always liked James Spader playing Alan Shore (although as far as I know Spader's been in a bunch of movies as well).
Finally, I like Samuel L Jackson and Christopher Walken, even though they're probably not in the same calibur as the others. Samuel L cause he's the coolest mother er in the history of the world, and Walken cause he does weird so well. Plus he was great in The Deer Hunter.
