caulfield12 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 (edited) Discuss... I was thinking of making a separate "comedians" category, but, nah... Ferrell/Stiller/Carrey/Carell/Sandler/Zach G./Owen Wilson, etc. Just thought it was sort of an interesting topic, since word came out that The Rock was Bay's first choice for Transformers 4. Seems that he's brought into every series to revive it: Fast and the Furious, GI Joe, the "Journey" series, etc. Plus, he's playing side-by-side with Wahlberg in Pain & Gain now. I realize there were some pretty good actors who I didn't list in the Top 10. Two that came to mind right off the bat were Hugh Jackman and George Clooney. Denzel Washington would be another.

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Of those listed, I went with Brad Pitt. But had there been an "OTHER" category, I would have gone with Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Edward Norton, or Leo DiCaprio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightni Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Edited the poll. I assume you meant only one choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way, does anyone know when Don Juan's Addiction is going to be released? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Denzel Washington. He's also on my list of the three guys I would accept a date from if he asked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMDB says October though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted April 30, 2013 Author Share Posted April 30, 2013 Forgot Matt Damon, too. And Ben Affleck, although he's getting a lot more attention for his directorial chops at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve9347 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 None of the above. Joseph Gordon Levitt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I would pick Steve Harnden. If he wasnt available, then I would pick Southside_Hitman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted April 30, 2013 Author Share Posted April 30, 2013 QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Apr 29, 2013 -> 09:35 PM) Who the hell picked Dwayne Johnson? Seriously? He's arguably the most popular actor today....that's why. He delivers box office results. He's likable...and has a high Q rating. Two or three years ago, you would have still said Will Smith was the most popular actor in the world with various audiences. You can make different arguments, but it's quite difficult to argue with the results....unless you want to bring up SNITCH or FASTER. He's definitely the busiest actor right in Hollywood, that's hard to argue Journey 3: From the Earth to the Moon (announced) Hank (rumored) 2014 Hercules: The Thracian Wars (pre-production) Hercules 2014 Fast & Furious 7 (pre-production) Luke Hobbs 2014 Arabian Nights (pre-production) Sinbad (rumored) ???? Lore (pre-production) ???? Ciudad (pre-production) Personally, I love Jason Statham movies, haha. Someone, I think it was Steve, said he had a Mark Wahlberg "bromance," for me, Statham popcorn action flicks with so-so plots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lasttriptotulsa Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I guess from your list I would choose Brad Pitt or Johnny Depp. If the list was expanded I would choose Crowe, Norton or DiCaprio. Or from the younger generation, JGL or Ben Foster. Ben Foster has got some serious acting chops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Depends on the role. If I want someone to play an emotionless statue, it's Ryan Gosling. If I want range, It's Depp or Pitt. If I want to make money, it's Tatum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Apr 30, 2013 -> 02:42 AM) What??? Caufield makes the direct correlation between box office $$$ and popularity. Therefore Shia Lebouf is one of the most popular actors in history Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoSox05 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 It all depends on what kind of movie you are making. The Rock should never be in movies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
