Same for Phillip Seymour Hoffman. And I don't believe he likes Tom Hanks too much either. <I>Catch Me</I> wasn't a Tom Hanks movie, but yeah <I>Cast Away</I> was good but <I>The Terminal</I> was horrendous. I also thought of Smith but other than <I>Ali</I>...?<BR/><BR/>But you're right about Murray. How could I forget him? I must've thought he had already appeared.<BR/><BR/>Adam, I thought you meant Dustin Hoffman and I was gonna be all "He's already been on the list" and then I realised my brain is worthless and I shot myself.Glenn Dunkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05424659636310160482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19295440.post-1149877989081862482006-06-10T04:33:00.000+10:002006-06-10T04:33:00.000+10:00It does seem like Hoffman, Rush and Damon would've...It does seem like Hoffman, Rush and Damon would've ended up SOMEwhere on the list, just not nearly this high... weird.<BR/><BR/>And yeah, Gael will likely be #2, if not higher. You also didn't mention <EM>Y Tu Mama Tambien</EM>. He has that, <EM>Bad Education</EM>, <EM>Motorcycle Diaries</EM>, <EM>El Crimen de Padre Amaro</EM>, <EM>Amores Perros</EM> and more.adam k.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13485604493059621307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19295440.post-1149862865634851372006-06-10T00:21:00.000+10:002006-06-10T00:21:00.000+10:00He usually places Rush in the "hall of the overrat...He usually places Rush in the "hall of the overrated". Just doesn't seem like he would give him the Top 20 treatment at all.

Nat nomi...Well, if he's not then I call major foul. Nat nominated him for a FB award for <I>Pirates of the Caribbean</I>, and he also had <I>Quills</I>, <I>Frida</I>, <I>Munich</I>, <I>Finding Nemo</I>, <I>The Tailor of Panama</I>, <I>Lantana</I> (which I don't think Nat saw actually, oh well), <I>The Life and Death of Peter Sellers</I> plus his hilarious opening cameo in <I>Intolerable Cruelty</I>. I know Nat probably doesn't agree, but there's at least three brilliant performances there plus some great small roles.<BR/><BR/>How can a man with THAT output not rank in the top 100 at all?<BR/><BR/>Hell, by all rights he should be Top 3, but it's not my list. I still think he'll place.
