Ok, folks. Time to 'fess up.
Whose acting style do you like the most? Who do you think is hot as hell? Living or dead, male or female?
My picks
Actors
Patrick Swayze
Patrick Stewart
Jonathan Frakes
Ron Perlman (acting style, rather than looks)
Richard Dean Anderson
Alan Rickman
Sean Connery
Harrison Ford
Antonio Banderas
Hugh Jackman
Actresses
Katherine Hepburn
Audrey Hepburn
Marina Sirtis
Gates McFadden
Linda Hamilton
Sigourney Weaver (my all-time favorite)
There's probably more than that, I'll admit, but that'll do for starters!

I'm generally not a fan of actors/actresses, but I prefer them in roles and such. I'm more of a nut over directors, Tim Burton, Tarantino, Lucas, and more.

Based on pure talent, and not necessarily the types of movies, Ed Norton.
That is all.

I have too many to list. Does anyone else call a an actor/actress by their name in a certain movie in another movie. Example I call Christopher Lee Saruaman in Star Wars or Dooku in LOTR or one of the two in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. It's just a weird quirk for me

It's just a weird quirk for me I do that a lot, mostly because beyond a certain group, I don't *know* their real-world names, so when I'm talking about them, I inevitably go 'the guy that plays Dr. Sheppard on Grey's Anatomy' or what have you. |

I annoy my sister when I do that. I'll go, "You know this person, they were in so-in-so". She never knows their actual names so she gets mad.

My mom and I actually make a *game* out of 'spot the actor' in our various DVD's and TV shows. 90% of the time, we don't know the real-world name, but we'll recognize the face, or the voice, from somewhere else and end up trying to remember where from. Our current, most humiliating length-of-time between 'I know that voice, goddamnit' and 'oh yeah, they were in ... ' is several YEARS of watching Independence Day before we realized Dr. Oaken was Data, aka Brent Spiner. *amused snort* |

I will add Sandra Bullock to my list. I loved her in the Blind Side, one of my favorite movies. I also like Reese Witherspoon and Queen Latifah.
