Who are your favourite actors and why?

Ewan McGregor, I got such a girl boner for him.

I agree with Dustin Hoffman though, I loved him especially in I Heart Huckabees, I wanted to reach out and hug him.

Also Anthony Stewart Head, aka Giles from buffy for those who don't know. He's very sexy, not because of his looks but he really knows how to work it?

Tim Curry of course, the man is epic.

Jimmy Stewart too

Jackhammer - well done with the Toby Kebbell reference. I've only seen two of his movies (Dead Man's Shoes and Rocknrolla) and the dynamics of both roles are very demonstrative of his capabilities. The same could be said for Paddy Considine, if at least for his lead in Dead Man's Shoes, and then he plays a British bumpkin cop in Hot Fuzz.

The obvious choices (Depp, Pitt, Hopkins, Nicholson) already being mentioned several times, I'll go with a couple who haven't.

I'm the first to mention Samuel L. Jackson? For shame, brethren! I know of no other actor who demonstrates such a work ethic and devotion to his craft. Again, diversity and dynamics are obvious in his countless roles.

Robert Carlyle has been great in anything I've seen him in. My favorite role definitely being that of the wandering cannibal in Ravenous.

I like Matt Damon. Some of my favourite movie is The Bourne Identity, The Bourne Supremacy, The Bourne Ultimatum.
he have Won Oscar. Another 19 wins & 51 nominations.

I nearly listed Robert Carlyle myself.
I just finished watching him in The State Within where he was easily the best actor in it by a mile.

This guy deserves a mention too..

John Simm
Been following his career since Human Traffic (I can't believe that was a decade ago already) It's ironic really that i'm a huge Doctor Who fan and I think it's probably the worst role i've seen him play because he's been brilliant in everything else i've ever seen him in, buy I'll reserve judgement for the time being though and see if he's any better in the upcoming specials being shown over the Xmas & New Year period.

Yeah, that's probably the first character I remember seeing him as.
