Ok - why not - time to list your 10 favourite actors - no particular order - and you can leave alan out cause we all know he is in ALL our lists LOL for me - no order 1. Ian Hart (loved him in nearly everything Ive seen him in) 2. Ronan Vibert (lots of people say he is like Alan Rickman, I say he is diverse and endowed with his own particular talents - especially using his body when he acts) 3. David Thewlis (huge fan since I saw Naked) 4. Tony Slattery (yea english girlies - you heard right *g* - Tony is talented even if he has had a few screwed up years - extremely funny as a stand up comedian and very good dramatically) 5. Emma Thompson (quintessential british actress) 6. Stephen Fry (Look - I know - but seriously - if he wants to have kids Im have to be the vessel!) 7. Johnny Depp (look beyond the pretty boy looks and you have a wondeful actor - look at edward scissorhands!) 8. Kevin Whately (Neville in Auf Wiedershein Pet and Lewis in Inspector Morse. There is just something completely natural and vulnerable about him) 9. Richard E Grant (mrowl...hugh grant foppish without the various body tremours *g*) 10. Al Pacino (love the godfather - have two posters of it up currently LOL, loved scarface, insomnia, angels in america etc etc etc David Tennant didnt make my top 10 cause though I think he is extremely cute - ive not seen him in enough to gauge how much I like him as an actor - definately liked him as Barty Jnr! And cause Im nice - pic links for each one 1. Ian Hart 2. Ronan Vibert 3. David Thewlis 4. Tony Slattery 5. Emma Thompson 6. Stephen Fry 7. Johnny Depp 8. Kevin Whately 9. Richard E Grant 10. Al Pacino

Only ten, huh? I see everybody else's lists and just keep adding more!
Excluding Alan like everyone else, because he's just a given:
1. Johnny Depp - I think he's an amazing actor. (and he's handsome) 2. Bruce Willis - From interviews and the glimpses that we get of his personal life, I just like his character. 3. John Travolta - same as above. 4. Morgan Freeman - the man oozes dignity and wisdom and is also very funny and sexy. I remember him from the Electric Company, a children's program on Public Television 5. Robin Williams - nuff said 6. Orlando Bloom - he's just lovely to look at. (I'm shallow) 7. Denzel Washington 8. Tom Hanks 9. Antonio Banderas 10. Tommy Lee Jones
Actresses, well I won't have 10:
1. Meryl Streep 2. Sandra Bullock 3. Angelina Jolie 4. Dana Delaney 5. Queen Latifah 6. Rene Russo 7. Emma Thompson
Well, I almost got to ten!

Top ten actors
1) Richard Briers (from Sitcom to Frankenstein with Robert De Niro! With Smee, now all he needs to play is Slughorn!) 2) Kenneth Branagh (from Reinhard Heydrich in Conspiracy to Gilderoy Lockhart and Shackleton in one year! Got to be brilliant!) 3) Robin Williams (Always good for a laugh!) 4) Johnny Depp (Brilliant actor!) 5) Morgan Freeman (gorgeous and sexy!) 6) Jason Isaacs (Peter Pan! Need I say more!) 7) Gary Oldman (just watch Air Force One and Batman Begins together and you'll see what I mean!) 8) David Tennant (great as Barty and brilliant as Dr Who!) 9) Humphrey Bogart (much more presence than Blonde Pratt and better looking even if he is dead!) 10) Stephen Fry (get in line!)
10 fave actresses
1) Judi Dench 2) Maggie Smith 3) Kiera Knightley 4) Emma Thompson 5) Kate Winslet 6) Kate Beckinsale 7) Gywneth Paltrow (her English accent is faultless!) 8) Joan Plowright 9) Carrie Ann Moss 10) Geraldine McEwan

My minds a blank this early in the morning but ...
Harrison Ford (Always at the top of my list. My daughters gave me a life sized Han Solo cutout for Valentine's Day one year) Sean Connery (it was hard to know where to look during Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade) Johnny Depp (another very versatile actor, not to mention gorgeous ... and his sister used to do my nails) I'll add my thumbs up to both Tony Slattery and Steven Fry who I loved from the Brit version of Whose Line The entire cast of Sense & Sensibility Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau (wonderful together but equally wonderful on their own) Any of the old film noir actors, especially the entire cast of Laura (my all time favorite film noir)
Okay, my mind is now going way past ten so I'll stop now.

Jake Gylenhall/ Russel Crowe Oh you like Jason Isaacs too! Which is your favorite movie with him? Mine's the Harry Potter movies, where he plays sexy Lucius Malfoy, i also love Passionada and Peter Pan with him. Oh Christian Bale is a wonderful actor too, love him in Captain Corelli's Mandolin.

Well, Jason Isaacs just is Lucius Malfoy!! He is absolutely delicious in that role and steals the show when he is on screen. I fear if I ever see the two of them on screen together I will just pass right out! I also love him in The Patriot, and want to rent Peter Pan when I am through with my Rickman-athon!
And Christian Bale I like in Laurel Canyon, and of course in Batman Begins. Oh, and in Velvet Goldmine with Ewan...one of my favorite movies with another actor I love, Jonathan Rhys Myers.
