If they've been in movies, or on television, they're on IMDB (http://www.imdb.com/)!
Who are your favorites? I'll start with one of my own.
I first noticed British filmmaker Chris Nolan (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0634240/) when I saw Memento (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0209144/) in my local indie theater. This groundbreaking masterpiece instantly became one of my all-time favorite movies.
Now in case no one noticed, I happen to be a big Bruce Wayne fan, so imagine how happy I was to learn that Chris Nolan would direct Batman Begins (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0372784/). It was so much better than the old Tim Burton stuff, just thinking about Michael Keaton (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000474/) in a rubber suit makes me want to vomit.
IMDB (http://www.imdb.com/)! What a great site! Who are YOUR favorites on IMDB?

This question is too difficult right now. Just got up. But I'll check out Memento.

I like this guy, simply because he seems to be one of the hardest working actors I've ever seen.
He's in just about every single Irish movie, and a lot of British ones, too.
Colm Meaney (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000538/)
I didn't like Keaton as Batman, either.

Keaton as Batman was still better than Val Kilmer as Batman, or Clooney? :1barf1:
I love to look up the movies in production on IMDB, to see who's working and what the new projects are.
oh, and to look up Viggo. (http://imdb.com/name/nm0001557/)
mmmm. tasty.

Hey, erin! Good to see you. But you and Happy are going to turn this into a chick drooling thread again. You two must be controlled!

see the thing is Tek (hi!!!), he's not just a pretty face, in addition to being alarmingly handsome and a fantastic actor, he's a published author, photographer, poet, musician. He does it all. Plus he's a decent human being, a good dad, and he was married to a really cool punk rock chick. It doesn't get better than that.
another of my favorites is Jean Reno (http://imdb.com/name/nm0000606/). He's amazing.
Or Gary Oldman (http://imdb.com/name/nm0000198/).
Uh oh a Erin and Eriu LOL
Hi Erin nice to meet you. You are Klytem?
Heartland
08-04-2005, 05:37 AM
Happy, if you like Antonio, check out this movie:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118001/
It's the only movie I've seen him do comedy in (besides Shrek 2), and he's hilarious in it!

I will get it, got to watch my funny Antonio. :)

Hell yes, he was! He was married to the girl from X. Plus he's quite the leftist.
He looks so much younger than he actually is, too.

Oh, sadie, Ruth Gordon! She was marvelous. And I loved Harold and Maude, too.

Would you believe our high school English Lit teacher/nun took the class to see Harold and Maude?
She was the oldest nun in the school, but the funniest and most liberal.

Tek, such a good movie. I watch it whenever I need a specific type of emotional sustenance. I want to be Maude when I grow old. :)
Heart, that's a trip. When I was in ninth grade, the social studies teachers took us on a field trip to Harlem as part of the African Studies portion of the class. Can you imagine anything like that today?
The good old days. http://server1.inlandnet.com/~jilittle/hippy.gif
Peace,

Ed Harris http://imdb.com/name/nm0000438/ woof!
IMDB is one of our favorite sites. I'll bet I am there almost once a day to look something up. I love reading trivia about movies etc.

Viggo (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001557/) just fucking rocks me so hard ... he deserves a second mention.

Better than okay!
Something a little different this time...
Kristin Kreuk (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0471036/), who plays a young Lana Lang on Smallville (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0279600/).
*drools*
And if you've ever seen EuroTrip (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0356150/), then you might recognize the name Fiona from the song "Scotty Doesn't Know". :1th_drum:
