And yes, I rarely miss the opportunity to watch a movie set in Hong Kong. I like it so much that I'll even go as far as saying that Sleeping Dogs is better than GTA
I almost bought Sleeping Dogs during the Steam summer sale. I probably should have.

I gotta include Jackie Chan and Iko Uwais too. Can't say the same for Tony Jaa anymore, sadly. His latest movies have been terrible.

Al Pacino, Robert De Niro and Gary Oldman. Holy sh*t Gary Oldman is the man. When Oldman is great he's fantastic. Even when he's bad he's fantastic.

Not a lot of love for the ladies in this thread. Some, but not a lot.


edit: Thought of some more. Denzel, Ron Pearlman, Ryan Hurst, Mila Kunis

Harrison Ford is cool. If I see that he's in a movie, I will probably watch it. I rented Ender's Game because he's in it.

Do voice actors count? Because I'll watch anything that has Rob Paulsen as a prominent voice. Hell I watched Loonatics Unleashed just because Rob voiced one of the main characters.

I didn't pick anyone but if I would have it would have been Gary Oldman. He is really phenomenal. I feel the same about John Goodman and Billy Bob Thornton as well. Any actors that the Coen work with regularly are definitely great.

I enjoy both Bill Murray and Christian Bale in most things, even if I'm not entirely into the movie that surrounds them.

As far as chicks go, Chloe Moretz is doing pretty good. It's weird because, in general, most chicks can't act very well (sorry) and most kids can't act very well, but she's been pretty good for a while now. I haven't seen her in a ton of stuff but I liked the ones I've seen her in, and I hear that even in her bad movies she herself is pretty good. So that's who's impressing me at the moment.

I recommend it. Fun game with a great combat system, certainly better than GTA's. The story is pretty good at first, although it gets less interesting midway through it and the game has a bit of an abrupt ending with a not so great boss fight, imo. Also, after a certain point, missions become repetitive and dull, especially when you start using firearms. Using your martial arts skills is a lot more fun.

It's a pretty good game but certainly not a masterpiece.

I bought a VHS tape of an episode of Rude Dog and the Dweebs because Rob IS Rude Dog. (I also have The Mask VHS tapes for the same reason.)

I love Oldman. He's such a chameleon.

Ryan Gosling.

Drive is one of the best movies of the last couple of years and his follow up film with Nicolas Winding Refn Only God Forgives is criminally under appreciated.

Gosling knocks it out of the park too with Lars and the Real Girl and the Place Beyond the Pines.

Classics : Marlon Brando, Audrey Hepburn

Present : Mass-agreement on Gary Oldman, Christopher Walken, Harvey Keitel, Day-Lewis and what the hell Meryl Streep.

Honorable mention : Brad Pitt, mainly because I went to his elementary school. Seven is one of my all time favorites, have to give him some credit for that.

Completely Random Pick : Michael Wincott, obviously not into "everything" he's done, but I think he's an underrated actor. Just my opinion.

^^ He has the same quality of Oldman, even when he's in a bad movie he's great.
