    Daniel Day Lewis has an amazing knack for making you forget he's an actor and not actually the guy you're watching.

    I guess thsts what they're all trying to do. He's just really good at it.

    Finest actor of our Tim and it's not really close.
    Marky Mark hater.

    I’d actually toss McCaunaghy into the discussion lately. Dude has come a long fucking way since Dazed and Confused.

    When Joe Namath was on the Brady Bunch he seemed like Joe Namath not whoever he was playing which was Joe Namath
    I'm not even sure whether you're mocking the way I complimented his acting, but that was funny either way.

    I cant think of Namath without remembering him drunkenly hitting on an ESPN chick on live TV. Maybe thats what I was laughing about.

    DDL (ILTCHT), especially back in his prime, was HOT too. His appearance in The Last of the Mohicans still gets me all revved up.



    Raaawwwwwrrrrrrr.

    This scene in particular makes me swoon!

    I don't dig him that way.

    Well, maybe a little bit in "Gangs..." when he taps his glass eye with the point of a knife. That was kind of hot.

    There are a bunch of good ones. That’s media and industry hype. He’s up there, but to say it’s not close is absurd.

    Entertaining movies > acting ability. Day-Lewis is lacking there. He has a handful of good movies.
