Best Actor..

the hell I dont, it was Tony Montana as a blind guy. The reason people remember those, is its their best work. What about that movie Deniro did with Eddie Murphy, thats a high point. Look, I dont disagree with you as a whole, I just dont think they are as diverse as you do. Just like I think Linkin Park is for teenage girls and you dont. Deniro and Pacino are the lead actors in my two favorite movies ever, period, bar-none. I just dont see them as very diverse actors, they have been in other movies yes, most of them I didint care for.

chris farley was hysterical but limited in his roles

he was a modern day belushi

among the funniest of their time.......but with limited range

it doesnt matter if you cared for their other flicks or not

pacino won an oscar for scent of a woman.....that movie bores me to death.......but it shows how good he is when hes not in a godfather-esque role

Meh, like I said I can see your point, but theys many people that have won oscars on their name. I think Carlitos Way is just as good as any movie he made.

Just to reinterate, Depp is most diverse...and IMO the best of the younger crowd.

depp is fantastic

It would take some time for me to sit down and think of any specific actors/actresses in my generation that I think are standouts.

Outside of my generation I'm a big Robin Williams fan. Great comedy. Great bad guys. Great creepy guys.

my favorite robin william role was rainbow randolph in death to smoocy

ok well how about will smith
