It may just be my love for Forrest Gump but I think he is one of the best. Not only in main roles but his random cameos are hilarious.

ou must not be familiar with Nicholson's early work. You're right about him not showing a lot of range in recent years but his characters in Easy Rider and Five Easy Pieces were completely different from his usual roles. He also gave a legendary performance in Chinatown so you're off about OFOTCN being his only great performance. I'm not saying Nicholson is as great as De Niro. He certainly isn't but you're not giving him enough credit if you think he's on the same level as Tom Hanks. Nicholson's a far better actor than Hanks could ever dream of being.
Well said. Jack has a slew of amazing work. Hanks is great as well, I'll always like him because of Bachelor Party and even Splash when I was a kid. Gump, Philly, Perdition were amazing. But all-time, Jack is a better actor.

Hopkins should be top 5.

That's a pretty solid list there League. Glad to see you got Hackman on it. Amazing actor. Some of the older actors like Rains and Olivier deserve to be on this list as well as Bobby Duvall and someone like a Denzel is pushing to be on it.
There probably just needs to be a list for the pre 1960's so you can have Bogart, Gable, Fairbanks, Cooper, Tracy, Chaplin, etc.

Robert Duvall and Denzel Washington are missing from your list.
