Sorry I meant to add Penn to this as he was going to be my pick if not for PSH. Luckily this thread isn't that old so hopefully the few that voted didn't waste it.

shit this is tough. you're trying to cover any actor who would be someone's current fav i guess.
my first instinct is bale, but he doesn't have the catalogue of some of the others. i take philaflava voting very seriously so I will think about it and vote later.
1. Nas
2. Drake

that's pretty much it fam.

Went with Penn. He stole the show from Pacino in Carlitos way with one of my favorite roles ever. Usually very solid and diverse.

I like Denzel, Bale, Norton (to a lesser extent as well). Hoffman is cool but doesn't seem to make a lot of movies I like.

For some reason I have a hard time liking Robert Downey, Matt Damon and especially Jamie Foxx.

Johnny Depp is the best actor here perhaps but he stopped making good movies a decade ago.
Whether to Jason of Philaflava or John Podesta, I will speak my fucking perspective openly

had to run wit denzel, malcom x, training day, american gangster, and so on and so on, crazy, he's got that swagger, he's versatile wit too

but it wern't easy, brad pitt represents aswell, everybody hates on him because they think he's just a sweet boy, but i feel like yeah, he's underated, he can act, trust me on that

big up sean penn and johnny depp too, there great character actors aswell, but my favorite is denzel out of that list

Denzel has pretty much fallen off, even though he is still great he really hasn't done anything challenging since Training Day...

Wherein favorite != best.

Brad Pitt has played a ton of roles I really enjoy, is just fun to watch on screen, and less like he's not a giant douchebag.

Apparently you didn't even vote for him because he still has a donut.

Thought about it for a bit, then went with Damon. Dude can go from robot assassin in Bourne to bi-curious in Talented Mr. Ripley to full out blithe moron in The Informant!
