Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

For the most part I agree with your awards...I do have a few comments though...

4.8.239.159

Jerry Lewis- appeals to the child in all of us...Buddy Love is a great character...The Patsy and The Bell-Boy are also favorites of mine...I just can't discount the man's dedication to humanitarian efforts...

Tom Cruise- This guy is a big question mark for me....He has been great in some films- Risky Business, Rainman and Jerry Maguire and then there are the others...Last Samurai being the most recent example...

Liza Minnelli- One question, have you ever seen her perform live? Until you have,you have not witnessed a true entertainer in action...

Maurice Chevalier- LOL... I totally agree...his singing voice was like fingernails on a chalkboard...I'd add Yves Montand to that list as well I've never understood the appeal of either...Much less how Marilyn could have boinked him!

Dan Ackroyd- I agree with the exception of Ghostbusters....

Nicole Kidman- She has oversaturated the screen in the last few years...But she was great in The Others and she is beautiful to look at...

Mel Gibson- I really liked The Passion, and usually enjoy him in whatever project he takes on..

Al Jolson- LOL...What was the big deal?

Joan Rivers- It is appropriate that she now sells jewelry on QVC..LOL...she used to be funny when she would fill-in for Carson.

James Dean- a legend why? Four or five screen roles and he's a legend? Talk about creating the Hollywood myth...

Marilyn Monroe- When I was a boy, I loved her... The vulnerability, girlish quality and that voice.... She had the most luminous skin ever photographed IMHO....

Judy Garland- What a tragic life...Although I never saw her perform live, I have a feeling that Liza is a mere shadow for the original...I have seen her TV show many times and if that is any indication of her performances, WOW is all I have to say...not to mention the screen legacy she left behind.

Batman movies- It has been all down-hill since Burton and Keaton exited the franchise...(but I'll still go see the new one)

Star Wars- I was in the very first preview audience for the first film back in the 70's...WOW! That was a great cinema night...#2 was good as well but again all down hill since then...Again I'll see the last one as who doesn't what to see Anakin become Darth? George Lucas should have stayed with it while he was fresh....
