By the way, Wilt Chamberlain was a piker compared to Ghengis Khan. [&o]

Duval and Jones along with Wayne are my 3 favorites. James Gardner was also a great actor and one of my favorites. There in lies the problem, I have too many actors that I like. [8D]

Its too quiet here. How many people think that Jan Michael Vincent was a greater actor than Ben Affleck? [&:]

No, I don't. But was the rest of that supposed to mean? Are they equally odious?

Neither are as bad as Dick Van Dyke - especially when said "actor" is trying to pull off the accent of an East London Cockney Chimney Sweep [8|]

Seriously, as mercenary as Michael Caine could be, would he take that role? I guess you're right, he wooduv.

Let's do a remake with Billie Piper as the chimney sweep. hubba hubba

Here's another excellent English actor, Richard Attenborough

He was the best in "The Great Escape" & "The Sand Pebbles" but he died today at the age of 90.

Richard Attenborough, Oscar-Winning Director of 'Gandhi,' Dies at 90

Richard Attenborough, who was honored for his helming and production of the 1982 Oscar best picture "Gandhi" but was best known to American audiences for his role in Steven Spielberg's "Jurassic Park" and its first sequel as park creator John Hammond, died on Sunday, his son tells BBC News. He was 90.

The stocky British filmmaker was awarded a life peerage by Queen Elizabeth II in 1993 for his stage work and for his efforts behind and in front of the camera to promote British cinema ...

Well, now he stands in the Pantheon. Unmoved.

I think everyone should watch the original "Flight of the Phoenix" with James Stewart to see an astounding performance from Sir Attenborough.

Oh, and remember, he's the brother of David Attenborough, the wonderful naturalist. Make that 'Sir David'.

About "Flight of the Phoenix", it is extroardinary, and an ensemble delivery, but I think Sir Richard made that movie, more than mister Stewart. Take the time to watch it, you will not be disappointed.

I saw it when I was I kid. And yes, I agree Sir Richard was the better actor. BTW who is this in this video Geofflambert: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3EOB-pWQZNw

As to "The Sand Pebbles", watch it for Mr. McQueen's work. He's a pretty good actor, I think.

Well I don't speak Spanish so I'm not sure what was going on there, I saw some dead guys wearing red tunics, but every one expects that. Those foetid corpses wearing yellow tunics, I don't know what to make of that, but you can't pin it on us gorns.

I'm baaaack! First in reference to the aforementioned Star Trek youtube thingie, do you know what Scott Bakula's last name means if you replace the k with a c? Look it up.

Second, we have forgotten to give a certain TV series (admittedly a Canadian production) it's due. How many of you have seen the "Red Green Show"? To you no more need be said. For the rest of you, find those episodes and watch them. Much duck tape is involved, and yes, I mean duck tape. That's the original name for the stuff and the original mfg. still calls it that. Take that "Duck Dynasty"! You don't hold a candle to Red Green.

Here's a blast from the past. These foreign productions always seemed to get shown (I think in the school holidays). I don't recall if I really liked any of them but they had memorable theme tunes. Hearing the music and seeing the opening titles really took me back to the early/mid-70's....
