That's probably a good idea.
Done. Let me know if I made any mistakes alphabetizing.

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.

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.
