Madeline Kahn in Young Frankenstein as Frau Blücher - Sublime! Also brilliant in Blazing Saddles.

I cannot stand Drew Barrymore as an actor (E.T. excluded).

I cannot understand Drew Barrymore as an actor, what with all that lisping.

She lisps?

Faintly, but I find it quite endearing.

Does anyone rate Tom Cruise as an Actor?

I can't take him seriously for some reason. I laughed throughout Mission Impossible. :)

My favourite actor is Christian Bale. If anyone hasn't seen 'The Machinist', please rectify this immediately.

I've never liked him since the colour of Money, although I think I liked Risky Business before I knew who he was.

Tom Cruise in Risky Business was a contender for the terrible actors in good films thread, but it is a long time since I have seen it and I was not sure that if I saw it again I would be able to tolerate the Tom Cruisenss of it all.

He's brillo in Interview with the Vampire, but pretty poo in everything else.

He actually gave a surprisingly good performance in the Paul Thomas Anderson's Magnolia.

Oh it's twoo, it's twoo.

Kevin Bacon. He's been in more good films than you can shake a stick at. I'm watching him in Tremors now. Great film.

I would one hundred percent agree with that.

Tremors is brilliant.

Have you seen Olive the Other Reindeer? She's ace in that.

Also excellent as Mrs White in Clue/Cluedo, which more people should watch.
