Top Actors

The new Harris Poll for this year has finally made news. It is the list of the top 10 actors based on popularity from votes. The only downfall to this is that the list is based on popular media and not necessarily the talent of their work. Gratefully, the public (you guys) know good acting when you see it. Here's the list:

1. Johnny Depp
2. Clint Eastwood
2. Denzel Washington
4. Tom Hanks
5. John Wayne
6. George Clooney
7. Sandra Bullock
8. Harrison Ford
9. Will Smith
10. Adam Sandler

I agree for the most part except for number 10. Don't get me wrong, Adam Sandler is great but I don't feel like he falls in ranks with the greats. Little Nicky doesn't exactly equate with Forrest Gump or The Blind Side. The one person who I personally think is missing from this list is of course my favorite, Meryl Streep. she is amazing and of course iconic but I think she didn't make the list because her height of popularity is not with the younger generation. Hopefully she can make the list next year. Who would you put on the list if you made it entirely yourself? Here's mine

1. Meryl Streep
2. Sandra Bullock
3. Tom Hanks
4. Jennifer Aniston
5. George Clooney
6. Denzel Washington
7. Matt Damon
8. Reese Witherspoon
9. Clint Eastwood
10. Matthew McConaughey
