I'm a little bit embarrassed about this one, but what about Michael Madsen? I've been rewatching the Free Willy movies for the first time in years(the summer is always my time for nostalgic trips back to various childhood/teen favorites) and, what struck me as funny is that back when I was a kid, I had a huge crush on the kid who played Jesse, but this time around I found myself crushing on the dad (M.M.) and wishing *I* were the mom living in that cute house, with the gorgeous view of the ocean, and the good looking husband. Anyway, he's not so young anymore, but I think it's too bad that other than a handful of movies he's mostly been in a lot of C list sort of movies. He's got the charisma and looks, and a really, really sexy voice in a gruff sort of way. I don't think there's anything to be embarassed about regarding Michael Madsen. I love him. So manly, so sexy. If you look him up on Amazon, he has a few poetry book and a book of his photography published.

I thought Madsen gave a better performance in Thelma and Louise than Brad Pitt (that was the movie that put Pitt on the map, if you recall - though not necessarily for his acting). Superstardom went to the guy with the abs, not the acting ability.

I've always loved Madsen's acting. But, I think he isn't more famous because he has/had a massive drug problem. I think they staged an intervention for him on the set of Heat.

If you look him up on Amazon, he has a few poetry book and a book of his photography published. Heh, I'm embarrassed only because I have to admit to watching and rewatching Free Willy something like 3x this past week...or at least fast forwarding to the parts with Michael. That's interesting about him writing poetry, I would be kind of interested to read some and see if it's any good. I remember when the media made a big deal about Ethan Hawke writing a novel and then when I checked it out of the library, I was extremely unimpressed. I will have to watch Thelma and Louise now; it's been on my to see list for years now, but somehow never got around to watching it. If a drug problem were the reason he doesn't get such great roles, that really is sad.

The Pianist didn't launch Adrien Brody into the stratosphere either, or come anywhere close - and he, unlike Watson, even won his category when he was Oscar-nominated. He hasn't had a great part since. I know, he's been reduced to doing uninteresting parts in sci-fi movies. The Predator sequel? Really? It's just a shame because his resume pre-Oscar is so much better than it is post-Oscar. And when Ben Affleck (whom I also love but I admit he's not the best actor around) outacts you? You really need help. I can't say I'm too sad for Adrien because I've heard he's a first-class asshole.

It's strange that we are talking about Michael Madsen because I read this just a few days ago. I swear he is the only man who can make the act of cutting an ear off sexy.

Why is Tahmoh Penikett not a household name? He is gorgeous, talented, tall ( take that CTC!!) and apparently one of the nicest people on the planet. More Tahmoh please!!

I'm still trying to figure out why all the roles that have been going to Sam Worthington didn't go to Tahmoh. More handsome, better actor, and he wouldn't have an awful in-an-out faux American accent!

I'd like to submit Adam Goldberg for this list. He's hilarious (see his performance as Chandler's creepy roommate Eddie in Friends), and he can play scary intensity like nobody's business. I think he deserves to be a lot more famous than a "Hey! It's That Guy!".
