I noticed you said, "of all time."

That's a big plate to fill.

I think you're confusing "movie stars" with "great actors." There's a huge difference.

“Whatever works.”

Any list of "The Greatest Actors Of All Time" that leaves out Sir Lawrence Olivier is no list at all.

Julia Roberts? Will Smith?? SARAH JESSICA PARKER???

Have we forgotten our medication today?

For the $100,000 cash prize, which one of these actors doesn't fit?

Hint: She's a drug-addicted, switch-hitting, teenage chick flick, rehab escapee without a clue who wasn't even born when these stars were still around.

Hint #2: It isn't number one, three, four or five.

In all honesty, I think Linsey Lohan is underrated. Mean Girls was an awesome, awesome movie! That was before the drugs and gereal insanity...but whatever. Good is good.

Not top 5 by any means...but certainly not bad.

I'm not even going to attempt to name the top 5 actors or actresses of all time. Its not worth my time thinking about such things. There are so many good ones, both current and past...and of course, I have my favorites, but they are more oddballs and misfits than "best."

The only one of the top of my head other than the obvious ones is Christopher Lee. Consitently awesome work for YEARS, and doesn't seem to let age stop him. Dracula, Count Dooku, Soromon...some fo the all time greatest villians, delivered with persision, class, and pure evil. Plus, he is the most prolific actor of all time! (at least as a few years ago...)

Honestly, any actor who makes their living acting gets my respect. Weather it be Sir Lawerence Olivier, Daniel Day Lewis, Hilary Duff, Carrot Top or some unknown day player still plugging away in the unknown, but somehow paying the bills...you get my respect.

The girl can act! I don't judge people, and if she can do it she can do it! I love her music too, and all her movies are awesome! I love Georgia Rule, Mean Girls, Confession of Teenage drama queen, Just my Luck, and more! She's awesome in her acting ability, and I would almost say number one, but only if she can do Baby Jane Hudson. I don't think she has the ability, or at least yet to do the Baby Jane Hudson role, which only Bette Davis does so supremely.
