http://us.ent4.yimg.com/movies.yahoo.com/images/hv/photo/movie_pix/new_line_cinema/the_lord_of_the_rings__the_return_of_the_king/ian_mckellen/king.jpg

They're both classic thespians, but deep in my heart, I know Lemmon is the better actor. He gets my vote!

[The Claw]

Jack Lemmon

[screamer581]

JACK LEMMON, though Ian rocks too.

[Moviefan1234]

Sir Ian McKellan

[Sugar Magnolia]

Ian McKellen

[Nate6]

Jack Lemmon, but Ian is terrific, especially in Gods and Monsters.

My thoughts exactly!

Jack Lemmon

[dannywalker17]

Ian McKellen by a longshot!

[ColinM]

Jack Lemmon. Both are great, but Jack's certainly better.

[Hannibal21]

Jack Lemmon by far!

[Damned Martian]

Sir Ian McKellan

[BadCoverVersion]

Very tough...

I'm inclined to give the awesome Sir Ian McKellan the nod purely because I think he's going to take a pasting...but I'm going to go with...

Jack Lemmon

Extremely great in Glengarry Glen Ross.

[MickeyKnox]

Jack Lemmon

[Rob Gordon]

Jack Lemmon. If Ian can ever prove to be funny, and I mean really funny, I'll reconsider it.

Even then I'd probably still go with Jack.

[bowieee]

Ian McKellen


Arrrgh this may have been the toughest round I ever had to vote for.

[Mike]

FUCK!!! I wish I wouldn't have missed the last match, I would have voted for David Dorfman (Panic, The Ring, Bounce, Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2003)... He is my favorite child actor. He has never annoyed me, which is quite an accomplishment. He was GREAT in PANIC... I can't believe he was up against Jude Law. The poor guy never had a chance :(... Ugh! I'm just so angry...


For this match I'll go with Lemmon...

http://us.ent4.yimg.com/movies.yahoo.com/images/hv/photo/movie_pix/twentieth_century_fox/men_of_honor/jamie_foxx/honorpre.jpg

My vote goes to Foxx. He was great Qui-Gon Jinn. Plus, can ANYONE forget his stunning performance in Schnidler's List?!

As for Neeson, UGH! His performance in Held Up is the new definition of awful! He's not funny.

Am I mixed up? My vote easily goes to Liam!

Well, Freeman is obviously the better actor, but I am going to vote for Radcliffe. He seems like a really nice kid and he does very well as Harry Potter, I don't want him to lose with 0 votes.

[Damned Martian]

Morgan Freeman, of course
Maybe Radcliffe will be a good actor, we'll see it in 10 years.

VS.

KEANU REEVES

http://us.ent4.yimg.com/movies.yahoo.com/images/hv/photo/movie_pix/warner_brothers/the_matrix__reloaded/keanu_reeves/matrix2.jpg

My vote goes to Keanu!

[Ren Hoek]

Both absolutely untalented IMO :rolleyes:

Keanu Reeves, the lesser of two evils.

[Tom Samborski]

Keanu Reeves

[ilovemovies]

Keanu Reeves. It's actually kinda unfair because I've only Christenssen in Attack of the Clones in which he was flat in but it's not really his fault. He and Natalie Portman are both stuck with some pretty lame lines of dialouge in that movie that even Robert DeNiro and Al Pacino would have trouble saying well or with a straight face. But my vote goes for Reeves, a very underrated actor in my opinion.

[Sugar Magnolia]

Keanu Reeves

[idealdiscountdude]

Hayden Christensen whom in his one performance in Life As A House, showed more raw emotion and talent than Keanu has in his entire body of work.

Hayden gets my vote (although he sucked in Star Wars, but that was because of George Lucas' terrible writing skills)

[bowieee]

KEANU REEVES

[charliebobo]

Keanu Reeves

[Rob Gordon]

Hayden Christensen is the Devil. If not, at the very least, the Anti-Christ. He is a scourge upon the Earth, a blight to all of mankind. He is evil incarnate and I pray nightly that he will soon be exposed for the venomous minion of the Apocalypse that he truly is. Die, Hayden Christensen, die. By all that is unholy, die and return to the hell-fire from whence you came.

By the way, I think you are devoid of talent and should never be allowed to appear in another motion picture. Ever.


Keanu Reeves

[Hannibal21]

Sorry Ideal, I thought Hayden's performance in LIFE AS A HOUSE was no better than in SW2: AOTC. Both of his performances just made me want to break into the TV and stab him 4000 times with a dagger so he can never act in another movie again.

Keanu Reeves is terrible as well, but he's not as bad as Hayden "I'm soooooooooo tormented" Christensen.

[Damned Martian]

Keanu

[arto_j]

Keanu Reeves

[screamer581]

Keanu Reeves

[Nate6]

Hayden Christensen, for Life as a House.

Keanu is talent-free.

[RogueSpear]

Keanu Reeves

[ColinM]

Since I still haven't seen Life as a House, I have yet to be impressed by Hayden. Don't really like Keanu Reeves, though... Hmmm....

I'll vote for Hayden since he's losing so badly...

[SubMethod]

Keanu Reeves

[Moviefan1234]

It's close, but Keanu Reeves.

[Horror whore]

Hayden Christensen

[Sad man]

They are both terrible terrible "actors".I just can´t vote for neither of them.Sorry.

[The Claw]

Keanu Reeves just for the "Bill and Ted" movies.

My vote EASILY goes to George Clooney!

[Nate6]

Michael Caine...

[Ren Hoek]

Michael Caine has lost some of his legendary coolness since the days of The Italian Job and Get Carter, but is still a great actor. Clooney is one of today's best actors and just made a fabulous directorial debut with Confessions of a Dangerous Mind. IMO, they're on a par... *flips coin*

George Clooney

[SubMethod]

I don't like George Clooney at all, I've been saying that a lot for some reason. On the other hand Michael Caine is a fantastic actor, and one of the best of all time.
