Alright, so I was watching That 70s Show earlier today and saw that MY personal favorite actress (Jenna Fischer) was playing a guest role (or whatever it's called) which reminded me that other people also have favorite things that they themselves would like to monologue about, thus the creation of this thread.

I myself can't think of a favorite actor. Steve Carol comes to mind, but he is also in (one of?) Jenna Fischer's shows, and I don't really want to sound that narrow minded (even if he is a good actor).

The first time I think I saw a movie with Miss Fischer in it was... Blades of Glory, was it? A pretty decent film, but I think the rose tinted glasses of nostalgia might be clouding my judgement. Probably worth a revisit (since it has that dreadful guy from Napoleon Dynomite in it).

Anyways, how about you all?
Have any interesting trivia you'd like to share about your favorites?

EDIT: HEATH LEDGER! That's who it is!
I can't believe I forgot about his wonderful acting in Batman.
Heath Ledger is my favorite actor.

Just so you know, threads like this have been done before. No biggie, though. Might want to try a few key words in the search next time, that's all.

Personally, I like Will Smith, Hugh Jackman, Edward Norton, Christian Bale, and Harrison Ford for my actors. As far as actresses go, I'm not sure very many really stick out. Judi Dench is usually fantastic, as is Cate Blanchett.

Yeah I realized just after editing the original post that there were probably tons-o-threads like these already out there.

Bud Spencer, Petr Náro?ný, Nana Mizuki, Ladislav Potmì?il. Just to name a few that probably no one hear has ever heard of.

For TV (these are mostly British actors, although a few Americans as well, if you don't know any of them then just ask and I'll be happy to fill you in):

David Tennant
The entire cast of Skins, in particular Hannah Murray and Mike Bailey
John Simms
Christian Cooke
Holliday Grainger
Phillip Gleinster
Dominic Monaghan
Adrian Lester
John Barrowman
Anyone else from Lost, especially Matthew Fox, Evangeline Lilly and Naveen Andrews

For film: Pretty much just Will Smith and Heath Ledger, anyone else I like but they are definitely my favourites, I'm always willing to see a film either of them were in.

Favorite Actor: Jack Nicholson
This needs no explanation, as Jack Nicholson is closer to Godliness than the Pope.

Favorite Actress: Perhaps it would be Jaime Presley
No actress really comes to mind being that I haven't ever been really stricken by one, at least not in terms of their acting ability. I suppose I'll go with Jaime Presley, though, because I don't really have anything negative to say about her.

Anthony Hopkins, he pulls off evil so well, oh, and Morgan Freeman, He pulls off warm and friendly like no other.
