Probably agree with you there, though not as recognised as the more mainstream actors in the film, He's proved his worth taking on different roles each time and hey....you have the same Ident as what I use on irc, right down the the capital M. Anyway yeah, Lee too. if we had to pick a poll for worst actor, london would get my vote.

If you want best actor that has been in a KS film, I would say Matt Damon, but if you want best actor in a KS film, I would agree with Jason Lee.

Affleck. I think he does the most with his characters.

i'd have to say KS himself. noone else in the movies used the facial expressions as much as he did. [img]/forums/images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Ben of course.
Jason Lee would come in second place, and maybe then Alan Rickman.

Maybe it's just me, but trying to pick a favorite actor in all of Kevin's movies combined is like trying to decide whether I should have the eclaire, the hot fudge sundae or the seven layer fudge cake...Depends on the mood I'm in!

I would have to put my vote in for Mr. JLo, Ben Affleck. His performance in Chasing Amy put him over the top for me.

Favorite, I'd have to say Jason Lee. He controlled Mallrats and Bankey was my favorite character in Chasing Amy. But this is a close tie with Ben Affleck. Especially for the way he played Bartleby. When he snapped in the parking grage, that was such a great point in the movie. And I also like his "Applesauce Bitch" line. That was great.

I think when affleck is giving that long winded speech to Joey in the rain, I think many guys have in probably different words but to the most part played out that conversation in their head for their "special crush" that they were too shy to confront, its just the fact he said it aloud. Instead of thinking/revising it in his head. Then saying "mpkfft humph I...um like you" Like most of us would. well that was probably his most touching moment, and The fact he hasn't really played such insecure chracters like Holden Before. So I rank him number two on best actors

Jason Lee is damned good, but Kevin Smith is the winner, I don't mean to sound like an old man, but he is the Charlie Chaplin of the modern age. But what about Mewes, his schtick is funny as hell.

Come on though, when Afflek is telling Jay and Silent Bob about the movie, "fictional characters!" I cant get enough.
Applesauce and i dont like the sound of them apples are also major highlights.

The Jasons, Lee and Mewes. They both spew out KS's dialogue easy as breathing. Even BAfflec has trouble with KS's dialogue sometimes...but he IS great so he comes in second for me.
