Tom cruise is to me the obvious choice with the silver medal going to Tom hanks. Cruise has been a movie star the entire time I've been alive. Hanks has been a great actor for the same time but really its not the same
When you can get raped by a bear on screen and no one makes fun of you you know you've made it. If I got raped by a bear people would think I was a complete moron

Its all about making that money man, box office is king for most of those guys. People would still be talking mad shit about Keanu if he didn't become Neo and then John Wick. Making Constantine, Speed, and Point Break helped his cause as well. I also liked The Devil's Advocate.
Tom Cruise. The whole scientology thing turned some people off but the guy is ridiculous after having done this for 30 years.
Tom Hanks just cranks good movies. He probably get good scripts thrown at him so he can be picky but his body of work is beyond anyone else. He does good work with what he does.
Leonardo has an incredible body of work considering he started just as a pretty boy.
Best actors on that list I think are Daniel Day Lewis, Gary Oldman, and Christian Bale. All just breath in any role that they play. By their roles, I have no idea what they are like in person. Gary Oldman's bit role in True Romance was like what the fuck. A fucking brit can play lowlife american scum better than an american.
I would pick Tom Cruise. Harrison Ford has been the biggest money maker having been in two iconic roles. Samuel L. Jackson at number 2 suprises me for total box office draw.

Drexl was an unbelievable role. You feel like if anyone but Oldman did that it would've been a disaster, but as it is it's one of the most memorable villain performances of the 90's. From like 5 minutes of screentime
In fairness to them the Dark Knight is a well loved movie all around, even outside of Sherdog. Not by me though, it's not even my favourite Batman movie. That honour goes to Batman (1989). Keaton. Nicholson. Prince. Can't be topped.
