Who is your favorite actor?

nah its just lookz halo/movie story halo for them

DDL is exclusively looks halo as with Pitt
"Movie story halo", never heard that before but unironically makes sense.
What about Shia LaBeouf and Mads Mikkelsen? I think those two are some of the most under appreciated actors out there.
Their performances have moved me way way more than most of the Oscar winners.

shia, i mean, he's good and Mads Mikkelsen is definitely a good actor

but both these are far from being the cream of the crop imo

Mads danish movies are actually his best ones imho. Not only the relatively mainstream ones like The Hunt or Another Round but also the ones like Men & Chicken and Riders of Justice.

If you had to pinpoint 1 actor who would that be and why?

My absolute favorite? That would be Leonardo DiCaprio.
Lookz? Check
Aura? Check
Acting Skills? Check
Wide Variety of Roles? Check
Versatility in those Roles? Check
Actually watchable? Double Check

probably malcolm mcdowell, he played so well in a clockwork orange to the point where I had to view other movies he played in rght after. He puts so much effort into fitting in the complexity that the character he's playing holds .
have u seen tinto brass' caligula?
mcdowell is also a writer on it

Give a few of them a shot and tell me what you think. Start with The Hunt.

He is a bit too iconic which ruins it for me, I need kind of a quirk, something that stands out as unique, I can't have something that is too ideal and to some extent perfectly boring.

For the purpose of encouraging discussion,
1, I'm only including Actors who predominantly work in the Hollywood/American Film Industry
and
2, Have majority of their prominent filmography post 1980

That being said, The best Actors are:
Leonardo DiCaprio
Clint Eastwood
Antony Hopkins
Kevin Spacey
Guy Pearce
Robert De Niro
Jeremy Irons
Jeremy Strong
Edward Norton
Ben Affleck
Christian Bale (truly dishonorable that he barely gets roles that match his insane potential and is stuck with nolan tier cringe roles)
Steve Carell
Matt Damon
Mel Gibson
Willem Dafoe
what roles match his insane potential

Insane Actor, agreed

His acting in Prophet and Our Children are so good. they're such good movies
Prophet is one of my fav films ever
your based
You got letterboxd?
 
nicolas cage, ryan gosling
 
what roles match his insane potential
The Machinist, American Psycho, The Fighter, Out of the furnace (mid movie, but Bale's acting is just next level in this), The Big Short.

Instead of being given such exuberant roles, he's stuck with muh stoic cringe roles like the Prestige, bruce wayne, 3:10 to yuma, ford v ferrari roles (ford v ferrari was kinda a drag lets not kid ourselves).

fyi, bruce wayne is one of the best ever characters out there but christian bale's bruce is mid as hell lets be real here

au hasard bathazar is good, but bresson simply has far superior works in my opinion. Watch Pickpocket (one of my favorite films of all time) or Diary of a Country Priest or A Man Escaped or Trial of Joan of Arc.

they're extremely extremely good

You should watch these films imo:

Antonioni's "Red Desert" and the other movies from The Trilogy - "L'Avventura" and "L'Eclisse"
Kieslowski's "A Short Film About Killing" and "Three Colors Blue"

"Wild Strawberries" from Ingmar Bergman

Yeah, but I wouldn't just recommend jumping into a film movement like french new wave just like that. You gotta understand the context and the era the movie was made in, to understand why its "good" or "bad"
for example, just like how mona lisa is boring to our fellow zoomers but was one of the most realistic things made at the time of its creation, if that makes sense

What genres are you into? tell me so that I can recommend you some quality movies

Nah man Pitt can act. Fight Club, Jesse James, 12 Monkeys, Snatch, Burn After Reading, Tree of Life, Ad Astra and more. Pitt is hindered by his looks (when it comes to perceived acting ability) because it leads people to believe he's just a pretty face. If someone uglier gave the performances he's given they'd be seen much more prestigiously
Brad Pitt just plays the cool handsome guy in most of those movies I.e. he plays himself

He literally has handsome failo so everyone sees him as a shallow prettyboy but he is genuinely a great actor, just watch The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.

Or is to more about what they actually are as opposed to some blood affinity?

Steve Carell. I've rewatched the office 10 times
Mirin his acting ability and he was always the last one on set to break character.
