There have been tons of favorite posts lately, so I figured I'd ask about your favorite actors. But thats not really the main question. The question is, what are your favorite roles from your favorite actors? 1. Christian Bale as Patrick Bateman in American Psycho. He portrayed the lunatic role quite well. The movie was just downright awesome, and Pat Bateman is one of my favorite all time characters. 2. Russell Crowe as Maximus in Gladiator. One of my favorite movies of all time, and one of his best performances in my opinion. 3. Will Smith as Robert Neville in I Am Legend. The emotion portrayed by Smith in this is top notch. I think it is easily his best performance of his career. The rest aren't really my favorites, but actors I really enjoy. 4. Johnny Depp as Sweeney Todd. I think this role falls just short of Jack Sparrow, but I think it is his best role. He was just so badass, driven by revenge. Great movie too. 5. Thomas Jane as Frank Castle in The Punisher. I think he did a phenomenal job at playing Castle. He had the rough, gritty look, the rough voice, and he was just all around badass. One of my favorite movies too. 6. Ben Foster as Charlie Prince in 3:10 to Yuma. If you've seen the movie, you know just how bad this man is. One of my favorite movie characters ever. I would definitely watch a movie all about Charlie. 7. Denzel Washington as Frank Lucas in American Gangster. Just a bad man that you didn't want to with. So, post yours.

Johnny Depp: Sweeney Todd. I watched this movie expecting some singing, and got a full blown musical. Johnny's voice is amazing, as is his over all performance. Sweeney Todd was definitely Johnny's best and baddest role ever in my opinion, and this movie easily took over as my favorite.
Denzel Washington: Frank Lucas. Denzel is such a good actor, he can pull anything off. When Frank Lucas got mad, you were scared for your own safety. Lucas was a bad dude, and you knew it.
Tom Hanks: Forrest Gump. Easily another one of my favorite films. He plays the character so convincingly. You feel sorry for him at first, but are forced to be proud of him for all that he'd learned to do, and what he'd done as far as helping others. Really tear jerking performance.
Jim Carrey: Walter Sparrow. Not too many people online enjoyed the Number 23, but I loved it. Probably had something to do with me being interested in it fora a good year and a half before learning of the movie, but hey, I enjyoed it. Jim is one of my favorite actors because he is just like the rest of the men above: he makes you believe that he is who he is playing.
Ellen Page: Juno Macguff. I went in to Juno expecting a comedy, and was thrown off by how it actually played out. Until Sweeney Todd, Juno had taken over my favorite movie spot. I really enjyoed Ellen's performance in Juno, through the entire thing. Loved it.

Excellent choice. I saw that so many times as a kid, it's not even close to funny. Wilder was delightful, happy, and turned very creepy at certain points of that movie.
