Anyone feeling Dirty Harry character? Eastwood really played that well with the tough guy image he had.

Excellent stuff here!
Dazed and Confused, has to be on my top 10 favorite movies, at least comedy. Another movie incredibly well cast. Matthew McGaunahey was great as Wooderson. Ben Affleck was great as O'Bannion, who did grow up to be Trump's adviser with the same asshole intensity (just kidding), Pink Floyd, Doug Dawson, oh man and then Adam Goldberg as the stereotypical whiny nerd and Nicky Katt as the greaser, tough guy, "I came here to drink beer and kick ass. Looks like I am all out of beer."
I can watch this movie, any scene, any time.
Saving Private Ryan had some heavy hitters who all played excellent roles. Hanks character especially and hanks killed it.
That movie was released during the Christmas season and it definitely was'nt Xmas fare. It quickly disappeared not to be heard from again. I thought it would do better than it did. Bad timing on the release though.
Why did they ever try to remake Willy Wanka. I hate when they remake classics. Gene Wilder was so perfect. He is so good in everything he does.
Norton was really good in American History X
Both wer superb. Even Fred Gwynn was a good cast. Well written. Well Cast. Well Directed.
In retrospect, we were pretty close to Mitch Kramer's age. Not quite there, a few years behind, but what is great I remember these kids as 10-11 year old and idolized them.
Norton is another guy pretty much good in everything. He was great as the murderer Aaron Stampler in Primal Fear.
Yes he was. He probably did his best acting in those two movies and in Fight Club.
He’a had his share of performances that didn’t work for me ( the Incredible Hulk, Red Dragon, Frida, plus several others), but that’s typically for most good actors.
Not at all she has been great. I think the problem is most of her movies where not blockbusters, even though she was spectacular.
Ok, no critically-acclaimed memorable portrayals here but I’ll throw this one out because it had a lengthy cast of good characters. Movie from way way back that I always thought was a good watch.
Cast had Clint Eastwood, Donald Sutherland, Don Rickles, Telly Savalas and Carrol O‘Connor among others. Who knows the movie?

Ok, gotcha. A lot of good ones already mentioned.
Robert Duvall as Tom Hagan
Tomei was perfect in Cousin Vinny
Christoph Waltz as Hans Landa in Inglorous Basterds
Pesci in Goodfellas
I mentioned him being good in that movie above. Fred Gwynne was a very good actor. He was brilliant as Herman Munster. He didn’t just have to be funny in that show, he had to be funny playing that character - which is much harder to pull off than most people realize.
Imagine Oddball with the negative Pitt fans......
Why don’t you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don’t you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don’t you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?
All A+ performances.
While I didn’t love Inglorious Bastards, Waltz was mesmerizing.
Sean William Scott as Steve Stifler. Hands down. I say this jokingly of course, but who hasn’t had a Stifler in their friend group growing up?? Better yet, who here was Stifler?
and I know it’s not a movie, and maybe I have some recency bias here…but Peter Dinkage as Tyrion Lannister was excellent in so many ways.
