in your opinion, what was the greatest acting you have ever seen in a movie regardless if the person recieved awards for it or not.

my choice..

edward norton in fight club

 
jake gyllenhall in donnie darko

'well i bumed into kristi once and she was like 'yo me and pep are gonna get big gulps, you in? and i was like, Shit yea bitch, let me bring rory bushfeild and hibbert, cause were really tight' -Mikael420

watching fox news for politics is like trying to jack off to the view. -asac

You don't get to choose how you're going to die. Or when. You can only decide how you're going to live. Now.

We're just two lost souls swimmin in a fish bowl, year after year. Runnin' over the same old ground, what have we found? The same old fears. Wish you were here.

 
i agree with skiller and jl5. donny darky is a phenomonal movie and gyllenhall rocks my world in it.

the dude from Psycho, i forget his name, but he did an outstanding job playing the part. every single facial expression, every gesture, the tone of his voice, it was all perfect and really created a memorable character

 
^yea, ill go with that one too, tied with my jake in donnie darko though

'well i bumed into kristi once and she was like 'yo me and pep are gonna get big gulps, you in? and i was like, Shit yea bitch, let me bring rory bushfeild and hibbert, cause were really tight' -Mikael420
 
britney spears is acting mighty damn fine in her toxic video HELL YEAH!!!

sleeping disorders are so trendy!
 
Jason Schwatzman in Rushmore considering the circumstances (first movie, 15 or 16 years old) that jake gylenhal in donnie darko or jack nicholson in one flew over the coo koo's nest

 
Jim Carrey in Dumb and Dumber.. .think about it. He looks so rediculous in that movie, every face, everything he says, and its totally believable.

I just read this thread and the vast majority of it pained me. Entries conspicuous in their absence:

Alec Guiness - Lawrence of Arabia

Robert DeNiro - Raging Bull / Taxi Driver

Marlon Brando - Apocalypse Now / The Godfather / A Streetcar Named Desire

Clark Gable - Gone with the Wind

Orson Welles - Citizen Kane

Jimmy Stewart - Mr. Smith goes to Washington

Samuel L Jackson - Pulp Fiction

Lawrence Olivier - Wuthering heights

And many others that apparently everyone just totally forgot about.

Dustin Hoffman / Tom Cruise- Rain Man

Some folks look for answers, others look for fights

Some folks up in tree tops, just looking for their kites

Goes to show, you don't ever know

Watch each card you play and play it slow
 
i dont really know. theres a lot. but i recently saw The Straight Story, a david lynch movie. Richard Farnsworth had an amazing role in it, part of it was because he was actually going through what the character in the movie was in real life.

 
^thats a good one.

Whoever says donnie darko, allthough good, you guys have pbly never seen very many other good movies.

The best acting, EVER would HAVE to be Mystic River. All these indie movies have good acting, but Kevin Bacon, Sean Penn, and most of all Tim Robbins are juggernaut actors. Its the best, most immersive acting i have ever seen, and i watch a lot of movies.

Diamonds... She'll pretty much have to
 
^that does have some great acting, but i still go with rainman

Some folks look for answers, others look for fights

Edward norton in American History X i would say would also rank among the top

yeah edward norton rips in american history x. hmm there are lots that have already been said so i think i'll go with Stephen Root in Office Space. he plays milton. you'll know what i mean if you've seen him in any other movies.

 
^hahahaha good pic, he's so good in that movie...milton hahaha. 'but...they said..they said that i could listen to my music at..at a resonable...a...a reasonable volume..'

'well i bumed into kristi once and she was like 'yo me and pep are gonna get big gulps, you in? and i was like, Shit yea bitch, let me bring rory bushfeild and hibbert, cause were really tight' -Mikael420
 
Jack Nicholson-ONe flew over the Cuckoo's nest (amazing movie)

Gregory Peck- To kill a mocking bird

Jimmy Stuart (so many movies) Its a wonderful life

Anthony Hopkins- Silence of the lambs

Laurence OLlivier's Hamlet

'i didnt really insult him, i just called him a fucken idiot' -Lateralis
 
Rainman has good acting as well.

However, nobody fucking mentioned Johnny Depp in Pirate of the Fucking Carribean!

Diamonds... She'll pretty much have to
 
johnny depp is a REALLY good actor, like in benny and joon and what's eating gilbert grape, he's rad

'well i bumed into kristi once and she was like 'yo me and pep are gonna get big gulps, you in? and i was like, Shit yea bitch, let me bring rory bushfeild and hibbert, cause were really tight' -Mikael420
 
And F. Murray Abraham in Amadeus.

naomi watts in mulholland drive, if you have seen it then you know which scene i am talking about

'We've seen your future... and just like your sister, it sucks.'

i thought mystic river wasnt all that impressive, i thought the ending was probably the worst ending they couldve made. acting was good, but only as good as the storyline or script allowed it to be.

Dustin Hoffman was good in Rainman

Tom Cruise in Magnolia

oh, and Mila Jovovich in Resident Evil: Apocolypse

 
i hate to say it, but here goes...

Leonardo DiCaprio in Basketball Diaries -and- What's Eating Gilbert Grape?

come on, he was good before he did that Titanic shit, although it is fun to watch him die at the end. 'I'll never let go!' *bubble bubble bubble* and that guy hitting the prop as he falls? i actually laughed out loud at the theatre.

'well i bumed into kristi once and she was like 'yo me and pep are gonna get big gulps, you in? and i was like, Shit yea bitch, let me bring rory bushfeild and hibbert, cause were really tight' -Mikael420
 
marlon brando in the godfather, people have no respect for the classics nowadays

Lateralis, on his turn-ons:

'a shaved box, i dont want no fucken rain forest greeting me when i tear off those little cotton panties, id much rather have a nice gaping axe wound that is dripping with wetness while i stare at it in amazement and eat that shit like its elephant food!'
 
STEVEN SEAGAL in who fucking cares, cause all of his movies are pure 100% SUPERB. For real though
