He is well known for comedic roles in films such as Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, The Mask , Dumb and Dumber, Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls, The Cable Guy, Liar Liar, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, ...read more. Jim Carrey is very talented at what he does. It is acting, but only one form. It's a very bodily type of acting and humour. He has gone a long way from sleeping in his car.
He's the only well known actor on this list! But he is the best. He's the funniest actor (along with Adam Sandler) ever.
Jim Carrey would be a great voice for Ganondorf - especially if he gave Ganondorf the same voice as Disney's version of Ebenezer Scrooge.
Jim Carrey I think has a great and hilarious personality, his roles will make you laugh ( for sure) and his just very strange
Keanu Charles Reeves (born September 2, 1964) is a Canadian actor, director, producer, and musician. He gained fame for his starring role performances in several blockbuster films, including comedies from the Bill and Ted franchise. Good looking and a great actor! I have enjoyed most of the movies that he has acted in. No need to worry that this guy isn't playing his love scenes straight. Great to watch him in action and just as wonderful to watch his more verbal roles.
I love all your movies keanu
Good looking, and he can act.
Daniel Edward "Dan" Aykroyd is a Canadian-American actor, comedian, musician, businessman and filmmaker. He was an original member of the "Not Ready for Prime Time Players" on Saturday Night Live. There is no way Dan deserves to be 17. I strongly think he should've made the top five. - BKAllmighty

Ryan was born to be the best actor of a life time. Ryan has so much respect and potential that he blows everyone's minds away on screen and off. When Ryan seems to be looking at you it seems your heart suddenly stops. Yeah some of his movies aren't that good but time and again he makes up for it with his personality. Anyone would be proud and anguses just to be in the same building with this feisty actor. I believe he should be ranked way higher.
