OK, hold on for a second....


Your chastising this list, which is made up of someone's stupid opinions, and wondering why it doesn't coincide with your own stupid opinions?



Carry on.....

Looks like the same kinda bogus list comedy central had about comedians.

How the F does Chris rock rank ahead of the likes of Don Rickles andRodney dangerfeild or even Sam Kinneson I'll never know.
I dont even think he's all the funny to begin with

Opinions are like bellybutton holes. Everyone has one and this one obviously stinks.

Pffft...

Oh, wait a minute... the topic is greatest "star", not greatest actor.


That would be an entirely different list than this one.

Top 50 movie stars?

Pulling power, not ability it seems, and even then it would seem all arsed up...thats saying John Wayne has more range than Edward Norton (who isn't even on the list)

Ok you have a point there.

Flip Bogy for Cruise though.

Cruise could only aspire to Bogy status. he aint there yet

But wait a second. the thread titel says actors!

Make up yer friggen mind. There is a difference.

So, it's not about acting ability then...

Hmm.... It's about being a star. What is a "star," anyways? What qualities does a star have in order to be able to effectively rank those qualities?

Drawing power? As someone has already pointed out, Harrison Ford (#35) has drawn far far more to his movies than, say, Sidney Poitier (#20).

Intrigue of the People Magazine variety? It's probably safe to say that Steve McQueen (#31) and James Dean (#30) are probably slightly more interesting personalities than Tom Cruise (#3).

What is a star? What is being factored in? What are they measuring, exactly?

I have no idea... But I can tell you what they're NOT factoring in.

I posit, The Penn Factor.

Bolshevik Bob Boroda in Michael Moore's documentary  "The Katyn Massacre: How 24,000+ Committed Suicide."

Great flick.
