I guess you can say this is a spin off of the greatest actor alive thread, but nevertheless, who do you think are the 5 best actors right now?

My top 5 list:

1. Tom Hardy
2. Leonardo Dicaprio
3. Michael Fassbender
4. Christian Bale
5. Jake Gyllenhaal
Honorable Mention: Brad Pitt

hardy and fassbender ... can see dicaprio, though i think he's over-rated a bit (flame away) ... don't agree on jg or bale, though they certainly do good work ... hanks is still the king, imo ...

I don't have a list and nothing about me is a troll. I like all the actors he mentioned.

Off the top of my head, not the best but actors I think that are generally better:

Ralph Fiennes
Colin Firth
Kevin Spacey
Oscar Issac(maybe)
Paul Giamati
John Goodman
Brendan Gleason
Daniel Day Lewis
...

Meh. He only works very 5 years and only picks parts that allow him to chew the shite out of the scenery. There is a brilliant art to a subtle gesture. You don't have to My Left Foot it in every role.

That's a pretty good list. Also I would normally put Daniel Day Lewis too because I think he trumps them all but since he hasn't been in any movie in like 5 years, I didn't include him.

I think Brad Pitt is a horrible actor. He comes off so damn cheesy when he tries to be dramatic. He's okay in lighter roles.
