I'm gonna throw in a new name: Don Cheadle.

He has done some aweseome roles.

Crash
Hotel Rwanda
Ocean's 11
The Family Man
Traffic
Boogie Nights
Colors

To me, it doesn't feel like he is acting, it's like he is just living the character. If he isn't top 3 right now, give it a couple more years.

He inflicted unbelievable cruelty to the cockney accent in Ocean's 11 though. Made Dick Van Dyke look positively method.

norton is great, he just chooses some questionable roles (death to smoochy, the score, italian job). i haven't seen a single role of his that isn't really convincing, and he does a lot of really different characters.

Depends on what you mean by 'greatest.' I think the actor that most embodies (with his work and roles and such) 1990ish until now is Tom Cruise. Is he the best actor? No way, not even close....but he could be one of the three 'greatest.' Oh, I just read your subsequent post....I'd say Tom Cruise should be on the list.

As for best I think Denzel needs to be up there. Hanks needs to as well. As for the third I'd toss it up between Norton, Depp, Crowe and Spacey.

The standard answer will be Robert DeNiro, Al Pacino, and either Jack Nicholson, Dustin Hoffman, or Tom Hanks.

Dustin Hoffman and especially Tom Hanks aren't worth spit compared to Jack Nicholson. And I'm a guy who likes Hoffman. Hanks isn't even on the radar.

It's very hard to do a list like this because alot of people have different opinions, but if you could ask x people you would get the most known actors show up, probably something like Hanks, Crowe and Depp...

It's a preety good list, but it will differ from people to people, especially Crowe and Depp.
