Jack Nicholson?

Zilla1 said...

Nicholson retired. He isn't currently working on anything, according to IMDB.

Zilla1 said...

But he denied it. I hope it is untrue.

Would Burt Reynolds be A+? I think this is Michael Douglas.

Hot Cola said...

Burt

RC said...

He was just in The Expendables 4

Zilla1 said...

It's not in his credits. Maybe he cameoed uncredited.

Zilla1 said...

Oh, I see. It isn't even an existing movie yet. With a lot of rumors as to who MIGHT be in it.

RC said...

Or is supposed to be cast in it. It is on his Wikipedia page.

Bleu said...

I don't know, sounds more like Warren Beatty to me. I just can't believe Burt Reynolds or Michael Douglas were ever in contention to be called their day's most famous star on the planet.

SeijnSe said...

Travolta.

shakey said...

Shit, I thought Burt Reynolds was dead.

First person I thought of was Michael Douglas.

Kno Won Uno said...

Robert Redford.

Just4Fun said...

Between Deliverance, Longest Yard & Smokey & the Bandit, (not to mention Playgirl) I think Burt was absolutely A+ and arguably the most famous star on the planet for a time.

GroovieMann said...

I don't think Burt's in shape to be filming anything - last I saw him a year or 2 ago he could hardly walk.

I think he was hot shit in the 70's...Smokey & the Bandit, Cannonball Run, Playgirl.

Dick said...

In the 70s, Burt was bigger...way bigger...than Clooney is today. And we'd all agree Clooney is one of the most famous actors on the planet. So...

ryan said...

I'm going to guess Clint Eastwood.

*googles burt reynolds*

Baby Trisha Harvey said...

Yaaaay mommie got it!!!

That Guy said...

Burt Reynolds.

He's filming a movie near my home soon. I want to say it's called "Dog Days", or something like that.

As for Burt being the biggest star on the planet at one point, it's true; he was the highest-grossing movie star of the 1970s.

Mazoo said...

Tom Cruise, Scientology has eventually managed to suck all the life out of him.

Apegirl said...

He was absolutely huge for a time in the 70s, maybe early 80s. I was a little kid and I remember the hype about him.

H2O said...

Yup, first actor to be offered a million for a role. Someone asked him if he though it was (some fancy word meaning wrong) to accept it and he said he thought it would be (threw the fancy word right back at them) to not accept it.

inga said...

val kilmer?

H2O said...

Cruise is still the biggest star on the planet or at least in contention.

H2O said...

The word might have been immoral. I know it's not a very fancy word but I couldn't think of it.

Truther said...

If it's Michael Douglas or his daddie, the RDJ was right in saying there's a special place in Hell reserved for these 2 POS.

texasrose said...

Is Kirk Douglas working on anything?

OKay said...

Yeah, funny, but...I'm betting PS Hoffman didn't think his last movie was going to be the last either.

Supafly said...

I just googled and couldn't find anything so could you tell me what RDJ meant? Michael Douglas is one of my favorite actors and I always like him in interviews.

Truther said...

Hello. Please google "Himmmm" and this site "Crazy Days and Nights".

Enjoy the information on your favorite actor and his dad.

Supafly said...

Oh thanks... Lol that wasn't RDJ...

macaroniandcheese said...

I would guess Reynolds because he really fits the rest of the criteria, but he had that four season run of Evening Shade which revolved around his character (and featured the late,fantastic Michael Jeter). I wouldn't call him mostly movie with a big TV feather like that in his cap.

Cinabun said...

Robert Downey Jr said there was a place in hell reserved for Michael & Kirk Douglas? When? Where? Link, please.

Supafly said...

@cinnabun if you missed the Himmmm bullshit, it was some poster who would tell dark stories about Hollywood while pretending to be Robert Downey Jr. He had a little fan club here and one poster even scammed people saying he was printing tee shirts with a phrase Himmmm said that everyone adopted as their catch phrase. It was so pathetic. RDJ was never here and Anon is a nutjob, I'm guessing TalksTooMuch.
Google the names like I did and all you'll see is movie promotion. What Anon is spewing was only on this site which is how you know it's made up.

Cinabun said...

Yep, a few months ago (before my last break) about RDJ supposedly posting here in the past. Can't remember name supposed to be RDJ, just that it wasn't him.
Always thought it odd Discus, etc isn't used here. But then we wouldn't have the Sybil's either. ;-)
Thanks for the reply. *mwah*

Reynolds did TV before and after but in-between he was the biggest movie star in the world for a while. Huge. He was always a good guest on Carson - very funny.

I just want Kirk Douglas to fucking DIE already. Whatever good he did (Trumbo) everyone knows he raped Natalie Wood when she was a young teen and her sister won't out him until after he dies.

Guesser said...

They did a t shirt with not now iron man with iron and man in symbols because of copyright. There was a website for the shirts and everything.He claimed he was going to donate some profits to the sister of a regular poster whose sister's baby was murdered by her husband. Needless to say, no money was donated, any many didn't get the shirts. This caused a massive exodus from the site, at least for a while, but as far as I know,Enty never explained what happened to this person.

Whywhywhy??? said...

He came to mind immediately.

Studio54 said...

Another vote for Michael Douglas. And I really loved him too, especially when he made "One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest" and "The China Syndrome."
I still remember the issue of Rolling Stone with Michael on the cover, with his young bride Diandra, who he met at Jimmy Carter's inauguration and married her a few weeks later, and their then baby son, Cameron, who turned out to be such trouble.... You would never have guessed it then, he was on top of the world then, a big hero to me.

TomatoSoup said...

Anthony Hopkins? He's shooting a movie now (Transformers).
