Conversely, which movie actor/actress automatically makes you want to see the movie?

[kethnaab]

In no particular order:

1) Bruce Willis - he's the man
2) Harrison Ford - a few stinkers, but generally, I love movies he's in
3) Jackie Chan - fun and funny movies, I don't go to see Oscar-winning performances
4) Brad Pitt - he doesn't do anything for me, but I can run 12 movies he's starred in just off the top of my head that I've either liked quite a bit (Interview with a Vampire, Smith) or completely loved (Se7en, Snatch, Troy)
5) Anthony Hopkins - any movie with him automatically gets front-runner status in my "shit to go see" list
6) Jean Reno - only seen a few movies with him, but every one has been kickass
7) Mel Gibson - I can't think of another actor who has produced more enjoyable movies in my time, aside from maybe Brad Pitt
8) Salma Hayek - enjoyable actress to watch, and it's not just because I find her so attractive, it's painful


yeah, not too many women, because movies generally aren't based around the women.

Gene Hackman, Peter Sarsgaard, Mel Gibson, Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks, Denzel Washington.

I was thinking about putting Tom Hanks up there, but nothing since Green Mile has done much for me.

although I do need to see Band of Brothers.

I forgot Ralph Fiennes and Liam Neeson also.
