                    Well, I can only account for the John Wayne movies. You must be the one that's been keeping Ron going (and coming)?!?!? ;P

                        In the action genre I would say: Bruce Willis Jackie Chan Sylvester Stallone Arnold Schwarzenegger But for pure acting ability: Julia Roberts Morgan Freeman Anthony Hopkins Matt Damon

                        If you vote me down, my score will only get lower

                                  Both overrated in my opinion - although Al Pacino has done some good stuff as a supporting actor (Devils's advocate, for example.)

                                      Gabriel Byrne, Steve Buscemi, Morgan Freeman, and Ashley Judd. Forgot to add an honorable mention to John Lithgow to that list. His sociopath roles were almost forgotten since his "3rd Rock from the Sun" days. Also need to add Sidney Poitier to the list.

                                        He should be at the very top of the "wonderful actors who turned into awful directors" list :-D.

                                          See here[^]. Some of the movies were just plain awful, and none of them were what you'd expect from such a fine actor.
