The Top Ten People: Keys to the Entertainment World

It's the final day of the countdown. I think its pretty obvious, if you have been reading, who the top ten will be. Hopefully your guesses for number one are right!

10. Denzel Washington
9. Steven Spielberg
8. Diane Keaton
7. Julia Roberts
6. Ben Affleck
5. George Clooney
4.  Jack Nicholson
3. Samuel L. Jackson
2. Meryl Streep
1. Tom Hanks

Some Interesting Facts

  • 80% of the top ten is over the age of 50 (the old timers know how to run Hollywood!)
  • Exactly half of the people are under 50 and the other half are over 50. The list was not planned that way. My original intention was to show that the older age range was holding down the fort and having the most influence. But it appears that the younger generations are stepping it up and making their names known more than I have originally thought. 
  • Tom Hanks is number one because he has had the most range of acting abilities in my opinion. From Toy Story (1, 2 and 3) to The Da Vinci Code to Cast Away all the way to Sleepless in Seattle and not to mention my favorite Forrest Gump; the man has done everything with a brilliance and grace that most actors came only dream of. He really deserves the number one spot!
