Vern Gagne Posted February 26, 2005 Report Posted February 26, 2005 You know the drill. Jimmy Stewart-It's a Wonderful life Tom Hanks-Forest Gump.
Guest sek69 Posted February 26, 2005 Report Posted February 26, 2005 John Travota - Pulp Fiction (especially since everything he does now seems to have a callback to it in some way)
MDH257 Posted February 26, 2005 Report Posted February 26, 2005 I love Pulp Fiction, but I'd consider Satuday Night Fever or Grease to be Travolta's signature movie. Jean Reno - Leon: The Professional
Guest Ransome Posted February 26, 2005 Report Posted February 26, 2005 Edward G. Robinson - Little Caesar
Guest El Satanico Posted February 26, 2005 Report Posted February 26, 2005 Christopher Reeve: Somewhere In Time

Guest Vitamin X Posted February 26, 2005 Report Posted February 26, 2005 This is a toughie, but does Al Pacino=Scarface or Al Pacino=Michael Corleone?
Masked Man of Mystery Posted February 26, 2005 Report Posted February 26, 2005 Bela Lugosi in Dracula Bruce Lee in Enter the Dragon
Boner Kawanger Posted February 26, 2005 Report Posted February 26, 2005 Bruce Campbell-Army of Darkness (since it has toy lines, comics, etc) Michael Keaton-Batman Anthony Perkins-Psycho Anthony Hopkins-Silence of the Lambs
Ravenbomb Posted February 26, 2005 Report Posted February 26, 2005 Bogart - either Casablanca or Maltese Falcon Mel Brooks - The Producers Henry Fonda - 12 Angry Men or Grapes of Wrath John Cusack - Say Anything
Hank Kingsley Posted February 26, 2005 Report Posted February 26, 2005 Bruce Willis - Die Hard Samuel L. Jackson - Pulp Fiction
Nighthawk Posted February 26, 2005 Report Posted February 26, 2005 I love Pulp Fiction, but I'd consider Satuday Night Fever or Grease to be Travolta's signature movie. Young John, old John. They might as well be two different people. I think Pacino is easily Scarface. Tony Montana the character is as well recognized as the movie itself, I wouldn't say that about Michael Corleone. John Wayne, that's a hard one. Rio Bravo probably. Maybe True Grit.
KingPK Posted February 26, 2005 Report Posted February 26, 2005 Ray Liotta and Joe Pesci - Goodfellas
godthedog Posted February 26, 2005 Report Posted February 26, 2005 This is a toughie, but does Al Pacino=Scarface or Al Pacino=Michael Corleone? i hope to god it's michael corleone. jean-pierre leaud - 'the 400 blows'/antoine doinel. the most obvious choice ever for this category, except for lugosi. johnny depp - 'ed wood'. obviously not in terms of popularity, but i think this role best sums up what depp's style and choice of chracter/niche role is all about. steve buscemi/william h macy/frances mcdormand - all 'fargo'. John Wayne, that's a hard one. Rio Bravo probably. Maybe True Grit. i think he's one of those guys like bill murray or charlie chaplin whose persona is so consistent over films that it doesn't really matter which one you pick. with some exceptions, you more or less know what you're gonna get from him whenever you see him, which makes it hard to identify any one movie role that "stands out."
Ravenbomb Posted February 26, 2005 Report Posted February 26, 2005 Wouldn't Steve Buscemi's be Reservoir Dogs?
godthedog Posted February 26, 2005 Report Posted February 26, 2005 nah. more of an aberration than a signature. nobody hears the words "steve buscemi" and thinks "whoa, what a sly gunslinging motherfucker!" buscemi is the weird-looking quirky guy who's a bit of a loser but strangely funny and likable. his characters in 'living in oblivion', 'trees lounge' & 'ghost world' have a much stronger affinity to the 'fargo' character than the 'reservoir dogs' character.

Guest jm29195 Posted February 26, 2005 Report Posted February 26, 2005 Brad Pitt as Tyler Durden in "Fight Club" I wouldn't say that's his signature movie exactly, definetly his best one but to really sum up what Brad Pitt's about hows about his turns in Snatch or True Romance? Ben Stiller- Zoolander- turning the daft character into an art form!
Guest El Satanico Posted February 27, 2005 Report Posted February 27, 2005 I'm not sure about Fight Club, but it's definately not Snatch or True Romance. Honestly, I don't even remember Brad Pitt being in True Romance.
eiker_ir Posted February 27, 2005 Report Posted February 27, 2005 Christopher Reeve: Somewhere In Time i would say Superman ...I know ...good
Nighthawk Posted February 27, 2005 Report Posted February 27, 2005 Fight Club Brad Pitt's best movie? Maybe... I never really thought so. I'm not a Fight Club hater either... but when you sit down and look, maybe it is. It's definitely his signature role, though, that I'll say. Tom Cruise... I'm going to say Top Gun. There's a few other possibilities.

Guest Regina Phelange Posted February 27, 2005 Report Posted February 27, 2005 I'm not sure about Fight Club, but it's definately not Snatch or True Romance. Honestly, I don't even remember Brad Pitt being in True Romance. Thelma and Louise was Brad Pitt's breakthrough role, that's probably what most would remember him for. That, or "Legends of the Fall"...
