Ok I will keep Gosling's list as it is for now.

Changed my mind slightly on Michael Shannon's list, forgot Bug and I think Boardwalk Empire could be closer to the top.

2. Nocturnal Animals (2016)
3. 99 Homes (2014)
4. Boardwalk Empire (2010–2015)
5. Revolutionary Road (2008)
6. Bug (2006)
7. Death by Lightning (2025)
8. The Shape of Water (2017)
9. The Iceman (2012)
10. George & Tammy (2022–2023)

On Bridges' list, forgot Fearless.

1. The Big Lebowski (1998)
2. Crazy Heart (2009)
3. Starman (1984)
4. True Grit (2010)
5. The Last Picture Show (1971)
6. Hell or High Water (2016)
7. The Fisher King (1991)
8. The Contender (2000)

That's probably a good idea.

Done. Let me know if I made any mistakes alphabetizing.

Gibson before Giamatti
Newman before Neeson

are the only ones I caught.

[Tim]

Switched, thanks.

So I ran out of space allowed for the post so I can no longer add new lists to the first post. We can of course still discuss the lists for other actors.

So in order to make some space for lists for Richard Attenborough, David Niven, Tom Courtenay, Rex Harrison had to remove some lists from the first post. I have chosen to remove lists for Elijah Wood, Sean Astin and Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

How could you.

[Dubrow555]

How could you.

Too many LOTR actors on the front page...sorry!!

[pauldrach]

Hey Tim, you're mod here. You can just edit the rest into that Sherick post right below your own as a belated birthday present.

[Tim]

Hah, good suggestion. I did edit them into one of my posts on the page #1.

[Sherick]

This would actually be fine with me
