So basically the actors/actresses who played the three main characters in PotC, the three main characters of Sweeney Todd, and everybody who didn't play a talking animal in Alice in Wonderland. Oh, and Jim Carrey, because his comedy roles are a riot!

I have a few Actors.

- Robin Williams
- Michael Shanks

There's another actor that I also like but I can't think who it is at the moment, I have a preference to male actors than to actresses for some reason and I am not being discriminitory either.

My #1 favourite actor is Ralph Fiennes. A very close second place is Liam Neeson, and a more recent addition to my favourites is Sam Rockwell. The man is a chameleon. Based on my dvd collection he actually far outranks Liam Neeson, but I call them an equal second place for now because Liam Neeson has been my second favourite actor for as long as Ralph Fiennes has been my first (I first saw them both when watching Schindler's List in grade 10 history class). I'm in no hurry to knock him down to third place.

I have never felt as strongly about any female actors. Though there are certainly some that I think are amazing, I can't think of any whose presence in a film would compel me to watch it if I had no other interest in seeing it otherwise. A quality which the above mentioned definitely possess.

Viggo Mortensen is also a favourite simply because I met him and he was a sweetheart, but I don't go out of my way to watch his movies. Except for LOTR, I'd go way far out of my way to watch that.

I think Vincent D'Onofrio is one of the best underrated actors around. I especially liked him in the movie The Whole Wide World, where he plays one of my favorite writers, Robert E. Howard, who gave us Conan the Barbarian (and who was almost certainly an Aspie, too!).

I still plotz over the combination of Vincent d'Onofrio's body and Maurice LaMarche's voice to make one spot-on Orson Welles in Ed Wood. But I've really come to appreciate him in Law and Order. Of course, the only other time I can remember seeing him besides Men in Black was as a young blonde stallion who looked like Thor in Adventures in Babysitting, so really, I didn't get much of a chance to appreciate his acting before.

We here especially enjoy the way he shoves his face down under the eyes of the person he's talking to and pulls up their gaze. That would be so creepy cool.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't his character Goren, in Law and Order: Criminal Intent, have some degree of Asperger's?

-Bill, otherwise known as Kraichgauer

It's been implied, and certainly that character speaks to a lot of us here. He's been mentioned many times that I've seen.

Leslie Nielsen FTW!
