re: Your top 3 favorite B-listers of all time

I wouldn't call Bill Paxton a B lister, but I guess someone could see him as borderline based on the last 5-10 years. And Idris Elba is well on his way to A list status
For me:
Ben Foster - should be an A lister based on talent
Luis Guzman
And I feel like hes an A Lister but I'd bet the average person wouldn't know Mark Ruffalo's name if they saw a picture of him
ETA: if we're classifying A listers just based on box office draw then no, Bill Paxton nor Mark Ruffalo are A listers
And based on that, actors like PSH wouldn't be called A listers, but I would definitely include him. Even DDL, as the best living actor, could pop up on TV and plenty of people wouldn't know who it was. That doesn't happen with Leo, Hanks, Denzel, etc.

i tend to agree that Paxton is a b-lister. A list is reserved for true stars, which he is not.

So you guys would put people like Paxton and Idris Elba in the same category as DiCaprio?
Nothing wrong with B-list actors, but A-list are the people that pull in the movie tickets. I never hear someone say "Damn Idris Elba is in that, better go and see it". DiCaprio is in a movie, many people will go just because he is in it. There is just an obvious difference between A-list actors like Leo, and people like Paxton and Elba.
