I suspect many of us have rated actors that either "look" like we wish we did or those that play in roles that interest us, or rate them how they stand in the real world with their ideas on guns and politics. None of that should be what makes a great actor. Not if we are talking about their actual "acting" ability.
There are singers and actors that probley are great at their profession but I hate their politics. I wont watch a actor or movie that has filthy dialog.
I like westerns and other historical movies. Has anyone mentioned Kurt Russell yet? I always liked John Wayne like most here, but face it, he only played "John Wayne". Same for Eastwood. There are very few "young" actors that I like. Its a age thing I guess due to me kissing 73 years old.
The newer generations tastes are far different than mine. My wife watchs that "American Idol" tryouts or whatever. I now hate tues and wed nights. I swear if no one had ever heard of Johnny Cash, Elvis or Jerry Lee Lewis before and they got on stage to try out, that "Expert" panel would throw them off their first try!
Clark Gabel, Errol Flynn, Ward Bond and the type probley wouldnt make it with todays younger generation.
