mine usually changes depending on what I'm watching, but currently the one that seems to be sticking is Lee Min-Ho

so who is your favorite?

I think I may actually have a new answer. I am currently watching Boardwalk Empire and The Wire, and I think it will take substantial persuading for someone to convince me that Michael K. Williams is not the best actor on the planet. I mean dude was on those two shows, Community AND he was James in Trapped in the Closet. No further evidence needed.

Tom Cruise is really hit or miss but him. I like Last Samurai and Rain Man a lot.

^ For all the **** Tom Cruise gets for his personal life, people forget that he's really talented and has done so many great movies.

Anyway, my choice is Bae Doona. Barking Dogs Never Bite, Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance, Linda Linda Linda... her performances in these films all rank among my favorite performances ever.

^ Yeah, he has an intensity about him and he's a very versatile actor, although he's always gotta be a hotshot.

I never heard of her nor those films. They indie? I'm not in the movie loop.

I agree about Tom Cruise that his personal life has really overshadowed his abilities on screen. It's kind of weird to think that one of the biggest movie stars of all time could be considered remotely "underrated," but I think at this point in Tom Cruise's career he could be considered just that.

^^ Mission Imossible are usually good, but I never heard of that other one. Maybe it's the one with Morgan Freeman?

Foreign. She was in Cloud Atlas, though.

She's not necessarily South Korea's most popular actress, but easily one of the most respected and sought-after.

I quite like Peter O'Toole. Man, you guys ever see 'Lion in Winter'? Or 'Lawrence of Arabia'? He was really good in just about everything I saw him in.
