Alan Rickman- unbelieveable range and diversity; terrorist leader in Die Hard, has-been actor in Galaxy Quest, menacing professor in the Harry Potter series... Meryl Streep- again, what range and ability. Great attention to detail Gwynneth Paltrow- Also great attention to detail John Travolta- AND flies a Boeing 747 (!) Kevin Spacey- always the weird roles for Kevin Johnny Depp- gotta love Johnny Bill Pullman- plays quietly, but really well; the prez in Independence Day, Daryl Zero in Zero Effect, and many other roles Ashley Judd- pure intensity Tim Allen- flawless timing; really enjoyed him in Big Trouble Steve Martin- a wild and crazy (like a fox) guy, loved My Blue Heaven ...and thousands more I'm sure... ------------------------ Yahoo!
