number 10 jk simmons the spider-man
franchise
put an ad on the front page cash money
for a picture of spider-man
he doesn't want to be famous and i'll
make him infamous jk simmons was born to
play
j jonah jameson it was just one of those
casting decisions that seemed to come
from the movie gods
in fact the casting proved so perfect
that simmons briefly reprised his role
as jameson in spider-man far from home
making him the first live-action actor
to cross superhero universes
perhaps it was a loving acknowledgement
that he can never be replaced
the gruff voice the mannerisms the
dripping sarcasm
all are played to absolute perfection by
simmons and all helped audiences fall in
love with the character
despite the fact that he is less than
kind to poor peter parker
they're crap crap crap
mega crap i'll give you 200 bucks for
all of them
that seems a little low number nine
kathy bates
misery stephen king enjoyed a resurgence
in cinema in the late 2010s
yet despite being one of his most
popular stories misery was never remade
my name is annie wilkes i'm number one
fan
yes that's right i'm also a nurse
there's probably a good reason for that
and that reason is kathy bates
at the time the movie was released bates
was an accomplished stage actress
who had yet to make her breakthrough in
film misery changed
that and made her a star misery chastain
cannot be dead
annie in 1871 women often died in
childbirth
but a spirit is the important thing and
misery spirit is still alive
annie wilkes is one of the most infamous
villains in movie history
and bates gives one of her finest
performances playing the unhinged
psychopath in fact it has proven bates's
only academy award-winning performance
despite a total of four nominations it's
impossible to read the book without
envisioning bates
and it will be impossible for anyone to
replace her in future remakes one more
[Music]
god i love you number eight arnold
schwarzenegger the terminator franchise
[Music]
arnie was famously not the first choice
to play the cyborg assassin at the
center of this film
with contemporaries like mel gibson sly
stallone and
oj simpson all considered before him
what's more
mr schwarzenegger himself was not
particularly enthused about the project
so what shall it be
oh let me close early today
this is a 15-day wait on handguns but
the rifles you can take right now
you can't do that
but after he managed to charm director
james cameron
schwarzenegger became an integral cog in
the terminator franchise
and conversely the franchise became a
key moment in schwarzenegger's career
i swear i will not kill anyone why you'd
program a cybernetic android to have an
austrian accent we're not quite sure but
now that the t800 has one we wouldn't
have it any other way
i'll be back number seven daniel
radcliffe
rupert grint and emma watson the harry
potter franchise
let's give a big hand to the casting
team of this franchise
because they absolutely nailed it i
award gryffindor house
60 points
every single character is impeccably
cast from the iconic professors down to
the insignificant
students who make one-time appearances
but the biggest task of all was finding
the actors to embody the three main
characters
the books were widely adored and
enormously popular
and finding performers who could satisfy
millions of imaginations
must have proven an incredibly stressful
task in fact the original casting
director
susie figgis reportedly quit in
frustration
the results were well worth the trouble
as radcliffe
grant and watson made the perfect harry
ron and hermione the monster had killed
somebody ron
what would any of us have done look
hagrid's our friend
why don't we just go and ask him about
it that'll be a cheerful visit
hello hagrid tell us have you been
setting anything mad and hairy loose in
the castle lately whatever the future
holds for harry potter
these three will remain irreplaceable
that felt good
not good brilliant number six
robin williams mrs doubtfire hello
oh i'm sorry to frighten you dear i must
look like a yeti in this get ghetto
robin williams starred in some memorable
films throughout his career
but no one else could as brilliantly do
what he did in mrs doubtfire
williams plays daniel hillard a divorced
man who undergoes a massive physical
transformation and pretends to be an
elderly nanny
so he can spend time with his children i
must tell you there would be a little
light cooking required oh i don't mind
that dear i'd love some heavy cooking
but i do have one rule they'll only eat
good nutritious food with me
and if there's any dispute about that
it's either good wholesome food or empty
tummies
william shines as both daniel and mrs
doubtfire
with most of the movie's humor being
derived from his antics as the sweet old
woman
the simple comedy was the second highest
grossing movie of 1993
which is a testament to the incredible
drawing power of williams
look at this my first day as a woman i'm
getting hot flashes
the performance would also earn williams
his final golden globe
minus the cecil b demille award in 2005.
it's a legendary performance from a
legendary actor
oh how lovely one big happy family i
wouldn't miss that for the world should
be
smashing good fun number five jim carrey
the mask
[Music]
it's party time p-a-r-t
why because i gotta speaking of
legendary actors
only one person could play the manic
mask and that man is jim carrey
this role was taylor made for carrie's
brand of outlandish and wacky humor
and it proved so successful that it
largely shaped carrie's comedic career
after the mask he was often typecast as
frantic characters who would make weird
faces
do silly and exaggerated voices and
bounce around the room with the energy
of a 10 year old on a sugar rush
jamie kennedy tried his hand at the mask
in 2005
son of the mask and if nothing else he
proved how easy carrie makes it look
there is and forever will be only one
mask
that says i see me the ball
number four robert downey jr the marvel
cinematic universe
robert downey jr's take on tony stark
proved so charismatic and
so funny that he essentially
kick-started the mcu by himself
where too sir take us to the hospital
please happy no
tony you don't you have to go to the
hospital i've been in captivity for
three months
there are two things i want to do i want
an american cheeseburger
and the other that's enough of that well
the incredible talents of director john
favreau and the filmmaking teams
certainly helped 2008's iron man was so
good and so unlike any other superhero
film of the time
that phase one of the mcu was announced
after its staggering
98 million dollar opening weekend a
large part of the movie's success comes
down to downey's performance as tony
stark
let's face it this is not the worst
thing you've got me doing he was
incredibly entertaining
and personable as stark but also very
sweet very flawed and even a little
vulnerable
this isn't gonna change what happened i
don't care
he killed my mom he commanded the mcu
for the next decade plus
and while marvel may try in the future
they will never replace downey as
iron man he is iron man
iron man number three anthony hopkins
the silence of the lambs closer please
closer jody foster made for a
spectacular clarice starling
and there may never be a better one but
we know there will never be a better
hannibal lecter than anthony hopkins
brian cox played lecter in michael
mann's manhunter
and mads mikkelsen did an exceptional
job in hannibal
when the fox hears the rabbit scream he
comes running
but not to help
when you hear jack scream why will you
come running but neither compares to
hopkins
lecter was named the greatest movie
villain of all time by the american film
institute
and his legendary status is undoubtedly
due to hopkins exceptional performance
a census taker once tried to test me
i ate his liver with some father beans
and a nice chianti
the manner in which he speaks is simply
magnetic and his eyes
always seem to be watching analyzing and
critiquing
he commands attention with even the
simplest dialogue and he makes a
grotesque character
irresistible it's one of the all-time
greatest movie performances given by one
of the
all-time greatest actors amputate a
man's leg and he can still feel it
tickling tell me mom when your little
girl is on the slab
where will it tickle you take this thing
back to baltimore number two harrison
ford
the star wars franchise and the indiana
jones franchise
it's rare for an actor to play one
legendary character
harrison ford has played two ford broke
onto the scene in 1977 by playing han
solo in the first star wars film
han solo i'm captain of the millennium
falcon
four years later he created another icon
by playing indiana jones in raiders of
the lost ark
snakes why did it have to be snakes
both characters are quite similar and
both play into ford's strengths as an
actor
snarky cool and more than a little
badass
[Applause]
ford established himself as one of the
funniest one of the most charismatic and
one of the toughest actors of his time
and he later reprised both roles in the
force awakens and the kingdom of the
crystal skull
both characters are irreplaceable
cinematic legends
chewing we're home
before we unveil our number one pick

ian mckellen the lord of the rings
franchise mckellen's performance as
gandalf was magical
a wizard is never late frodo baggins
nor is he early he arrives precisely
when he means
sigourney weaver the alien franchise one
of the most
badass female protagonists to ever grace
the screen
this is ripley last survivor of the
nostromo
signing off will ferrell elf no one will
ever match farrell's childish enthusiasm
i'm in a store
and i'm singing there's no singing in
the north pole
yes there is christopher lloyd the back
to the future franchise

that this
damn thing doesn't work at all

number one marlon brando the godfather
you don't offer friendship you don't
even think to call me godfather
instead you come into my house on the
day my daughter's to be married and you
ask me for the murder
money it's unlikely that the godfather
films will ever be remade
considering their monumental stature but
if they are
then the next vito corleone certainly
has his work cut out for him
considered one of the greatest actors of
all time marlon brando stole the show as
don corleone
complete with his now signature whispery
voice
vito's intonation mannerisms and
dialogue
all became iconic pieces of movie
history and he remains one of the most
parodied and recognizable movie
characters
when did i ever refuse except one time
why because i believe this drug business
he's going to destroy us and he used to
come brando won his second and final
academy award for playing vito corleone
and while robert de niro did an
exceptional job as a younger veto in the
godfather part 2
the elderly iteration will forever
belong to brando
someday and that day may never come i'll
call upon you to do a service for me
but uh until that day
except this justice is a gift on my
daughter's wedding day
