1. I love him.

He was amazing as Lester Bangs in "Almost Famous" too - a small part but a great one. :thumbsup:

14. Ithought he was perfect as Lester!

really funny, speed talking....

[fishwax]

2. he was funny in twister

and it didn't hurt that he wore an OU cap through the whole movie :)

[CatWoman]

3. He was the most colorful, fun person in that movie

:D

[DS1]

4. Jack Black

From "The Jackal" to King Kong :-)

[Shakespeare]

5. Bleah. Sigh...at least there'll always be High Fidelity.

Of course, that's just Jack playing Jack, but still....

(actually, now that I think about it, ALL of his roles are just Jack playing Jack.)

6. His little scene in Anchorman had me in tears

as anyone who knows my opinion of dogs might suspect

[Shakespeare]

7. Yup. One of the best uncredited cameos EVER. n/t

15. another great rock and roll movie!

I knew people just like the Jack Black character....

[Orrex]

11. From the "Lightning Boy" episode of X-Files to King Kong

And Giovannia Ribisi went to, well, Mod Squad. Hmm...

8. I first saw him in "Scent of a Woman."

Besides the fact that he brought back memories of Detroit Country Day, I really thought this guy's gonna be around for a while, he's too good.

Of course, this panned out; he's winning awards and I have no idea whatever happened to Chris O'Donnell. One could speculate that it was the Robin role that did him in but, hell, Clooney was Batman!

[Shakespeare]

12. oooh, I'd forgotten about that despicable little punk he played in

...the Pacino movie. My favorite roles of his are in State & Main, and Almost Famous.

9. "Boogie Nights", "The Talented Mr. Ripley", among others...

Phillip Seymour Hoffman has always given an excellent performance. Always.

[CatWoman]

10. !!!!

:hi:

[Richardo]

13. I first noticed him in "Ripley" - great understated performance...

:thumbsup:

[deutsey]

16. I always liked him in "The Big Lebowski" too

What a great actor he is. His character in "Lebowski" is such a toady but is so endearing too.

Seems to have his head and heart in the right place too.

17. Actually, I think his performance as Willis in Scent of a Woman was 1st

Either way, I think he's ALWAYS good at what he does.
