Anthony Hopkins as Hannibel Lector.

Natalie Portman as Matilda in "The Professional." Awesome work for such a youngster.

Don't know his name, but the old, bad guy in "Snatch."

ClarK Gable in "Gone With the Wind." Dude was SMOOTH!

Ed Norton in "Rounders." Maybe tied for biggest loser with Eric Roberts in "The Pope of Greenwich Village."

Jack Nicholson in "A Few Good Men."

Demi Moore's breasts in "striptease." A couple of knockouts! :)

Okay, when I read the title of this thread, the first thing I thought was Val Kilmer as Doc Holliday in Tombstone. Honest.

After that:

Steve Buscemi in just about anything

'The Dude' in The Big Lebowski

Hugo Weaving in the Matrix Trilogy

George Clooney in O Brother Where Art Thou?

Mel Gibson in Payback

Ahnold as the Terminator

and a special lifetime achievement award to John Wayne

After he was robbed of Best Actor that year in the Oscars the academy lost all credibility in my eyes. Absolute highway robbery.

Holy Sh!t!!! No one mentioned Kevin Spacey as "Lester Burnham"!!! Holy Sh!t!! My all time favorite!! I wish I could blackmail my boss like that and get away with it. And not that anyone would want their wives cheating on them, BUT IF THEY WERE, wouldn't it just be bad @ss if you caught her like Lester did in "American Beauty"!?!?

2. Darth Vader

3. Alonzo Harris(Training Day) - Best Denzel ever.

4. R. Lee Ermey(Full Metal Jacket) - I was rolling on the floor.

5. Fletch. What man in America doesn't know a line or 4 from that movie.
