List time!

Well, I got bored today so I went and made a list. Something I do all the time whenever I'm bored. I don't really know why making lists of things is so enjoyable, but if it keeps me from getting bored than I guess it's alright. Today's list is a list of all my favorite actors (and actresses) and the movies that I loved them in. I'm going by performances, so just because I list a movie doesn't mean I enjoyed or recommend the movie itself. It just means their performance in that movie was frickin' awesome and blew me away. Anyways, here's the list. Whether people find it interesting or not is another thing.

Slap on a diaper Josh. I don't see why you thought this list was so long. Especially since you've seen some of my other lists.
