Actors You Follow

Is there an actor whose movies you'll always see - just because he or she is in them?
If so, which actor is it and why?



Here's a chatroom conversation Troy and I had on this subject, recently: (read from the bottom-to-the-top)

Troy: well, Mrs. Doubtfire assures that i'll NEVER see all his movies . .

west3man: I dug Remington Steele, too. He was MEANT to be Bond. Too bad it took'em so long to do it.

west3man: Truth be told, it ain't bad. Hell, most movies I've seen him in have been pretty decent-to-very good.

Troy: I was a big Remminton Steel fan, and i've liked him as Bond, but i haven't seen too much else with him

west3man: We're watching The Matador on video simply b/c P.B.'s in it.

west3man: Close enough.

Troy: the answer is "No" -- i'll almost always RENT Jackie Chan movies eventually--but i've only Gone to see a couple

west3man: For me, it's Pierce Brosnan. What about you?

west3man: Is there an actor whose movies you always go see?

That's right. You mentioned Depp in a blog post recently.

I should've guessed that one. I must be slippin'. :p

Depp had me like that for a while, too, but he did a couple of weak movies (like Sleepy Hollow, I think) that convinced me that my blind loyalty would not be rewarded consistently enough.

Hey for me, it is Denzel Washington. I didn't like him in "Training Day", but loved him in "Man on Fire", and I could go on and on, because he has done so many movies. I guess the second place person would be Angela Bassett.

What happened to your picture?

West said...

"Out of Time" was pretty weak, but I feel you.

As far as my picture,... that's a good question. *checks*

remnants, it looks like a temporary thing with blogger.

I'm gonna leave it alone and hope it fixes itself.

Yes, I think shortly after I asked about your pic I read something about a blogger update.
