You don't even follow your own made up rules. Half of those people are no longer relevant or versatile. The issue here is your rules are dumb. A List is determined by whether you can be a headline in a higher budget movie. Jamie fox doesn't fit that bill clearly, I don't know why you thought of him.
And you forgot Sylvester Stallone and Harrison Ford
Also I'd argue you don't lose A list status. If you're a real A list person, you should never lose that status

Burt Reynolds was an A lister in the 70s and could headline big budget movies. Is he an A lister now? Same goes for Travolta, Willis, Deniro, and a few others on that list.

Travolta took a few years off but has a ton of new stuff coming out. Deniro was in American Hustle and has a bunch of movies coming out. Willis was recently in the last Expendables, GI JOE 2 and a few other movies that made 100+ million. I am not saying they are still good actors but in the right movie all 3 can put butts in the seats and make 100+ million dollar movies....which IMO makes them A listers.

you dont lose A list status until you die or retire. Once you are there, you are there. Because you will always be respected & seen as an A lister by one generation.

Maybe Burt shouldn't have been considered an A lister then. No other ones have lost their status. Expendable is a great example

Where do you put Gene Hackman and Harrison Ford. Those 2 are bigger than Bruce Willis.

What was his last big hit? I can't even remember.

Deniro was in American Hustle
He had a two minute cameo. He was certainly not the star. I didn't know he was in the movie until I saw it because it wasn't advertised.

He was not in Expendables 3 and only had a small part in the first two. He mostly does straight to dvd movies now. He's about on Nic Cage's level as far as star power goes.
