Who in your opinion has been the best actor of all time?
Best Actor
Gavin Clark
Jeremiah Hall
Owen Gonzalez
cant make a decent thread about something fucking related to Yea Forums nowadays
this whole board is full of retarded zoomers
Connor Fisher
Nathan Miller
marlon brandon or peter lorre, no contest
hard to belive that guy is a merchant. his nose must have been broken at early age in a fight
Bentley Cruz
>Oldman is as fine an actor as Daniel Day-Lewis, but Gary is not double-barrelled.
Nathaniel Roberts
*sails in your way*
Thomas Bailey
Julian Hall
Sir Gary Oldman when?
Jaxon Collins
Most overrated actor of all time.
Charles Phillips
Your statement implies he's a bad actor, and he's definitely not.
Levi Cruz
This. Oldman is much better by far.
James Williams
Christian Bale perhaps, maybe even Brad Pitt.
I'd say Brad Pitt, i haven't seen enough of Lewis's work
Austin Mitchell
No it doesn't, you non English speaking mong.
Jack Davis
>muh meme jahmaican accant mon babylon
Carter Russell
Overrated means that he was praised while he didn't deserve it. Brie Larson is overrated, not him.
Jaxon Ross
yeah, i'm thinking DDL is a hack desu. fuck public consensus and fuck the oscars. The truly great leading men are able to establish their unique persona within a role. DDL takes his method meme to such an extreme that he ceases to be an actor, he's just a mannequin; a person that becomes the role. That's not a good thing; thats the flat out post-modern nightmare that Jameson was talking about 3 decades ago. The death of "starpower" and the rise of a generation of actors who only knew how to interpret the text; they forgot how to be authors
Nathan Rogers
Thats what an actor is. You may think putting on multiple hats makes you better, but it really just makes you worse at each one. By your logic, jerry lewis is the best because he was director, actor, comedian, screenwriter. He would do multiple scenes completely solo and take a global audience to hysterics with no support or even language.
Samuel Bailey
This, pretty much.
Easton Jenkins
i unironically think tommy lee jones is a better actor than javier bardem, and i think no country for old men is a perfect showcase of the death of the modern actor and the rise of the postmodern actor. bardem becomes whatever the script requires; jones instills each role with his essence. the former is soulless, the later has soul. i also think the coen brothers casted these 2 on purpose for much the same reason. they wanted to capture the death of an outmoded style of acting, and deliver it through mcarthy's neowestern nightmare
Sebastian Parker
Parker White
My personal favourite anyway.
Thomas Cook
Juan Ward
Tim Roth
(pic from Made In Britain, highly recommend btw)
not that guy, but overrated means something is praised a disproportionate amount to what they deserve, it's not a binary thing you know
Jaxon Cooper
Gavin Walker
Jackson Rogers
Mmm...
Luis Wright
Owen Baker
>jones instills each role with his essence
So does Nicholas Cage, what's your opinion of him?
Logan Hall
Belongs in the discussion at the very least
Carson Cruz
Ryder Hall
Gena Rowlands or Spencer Tracy. Probably unknown to most of you when looking at the other mentions here.
Brandon Nelson
Good in Wolf Hall.
William Fisher
Probably the only one here who has a perfect filmography
Jackson Richardson
Elijah Hernandez
Wrong!
Easton Morales
This. Cage will stand the test of time, turn on any program and there's an 80% chance it's a movie with him in it.
Henry Clark
Jack Kelly
step aside
Isaac Anderson
Fifth Element just does it for me.
BASED
Mason Adams
The ones that isn't cheap paychecks to pay the bills are all glorious. He has some flaws sometimes but then again he was always more of a rough actor with background in indy-movies at the beginning.
Bentley Kelly
I just love the Riddick films.
Lucas Morris
George C. Scott
Parker Ward
*blocks your path*
Jacob Green
Gary Old-Man
