Just got done watching the latest episode of House of Lies and it got me thinking, who are your favorite actors? I doubt I'd watch this series if it wasn't for Don Cheadle, who I think is brilliant.

This weekend I went and saw Safehouse and while it was as badass as advertised, I don't know who else could have played Tobin Frost as well as Denzel.

Who are your favorite actors, people you make you want to see a movie just because they're in it?

Some of mine are:

Denzel

Will Smith

Don Cheadle

Gene Hackman

Tom Hanks

Matt Damon is getting there

That's all I can think of right now.

Whatcha got?

Ferrell at one point was my favorite.....now.....if he is in a movie, I pretty much know it is a rental at best. The days of Old School and Achorman are over.

I can understand that but this movie seems like it has to be good....or at least I hope so.

UPDATED: Actors Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis star as North Carolina politicians in a new movie titled "Dog Fight" that will begin production soon.

As reported by the Greensboro News & Record -- which will be featured in the film -- Ferrell describes the movie this way: "It’s basically the story of a small time congressional district in North Carolina, in the south, and I’m the incumbent candidate who’s about to run unopposed for my fifth term.

"We’re politically hungry, and I’m cruising along until I leave what I think is a message on my mistress’ voicemail but it’s really just a random family and it blows up in my face. I’m seen as vulnerable for the first time and the opposition decides to run a candidate against me and that’s Zach’s character.

"But you know, the movie is just a platform for us to illustrate how insane our political process has become. The crazy ad campaigns that exist now and the manipulations. We’re going to make it pretty farcical but not really that far from the truth."

      SC won the ACC title the week before in Clemsons own house. Committee was worried about optics over talent.

      Brooks wasn’t the worst offensive draft mistake the panthers made this year

      It's crazy how folks on the huddle can draft better than our highly paid scouts.  I know I saw several mocks with the first 3 selections going Ladd, Frazier and Wilson like the above post.  Heck, one of them may have been mine.  It seems that the scouts go into paralysis by analysis.  Ladd might not be the ideal weight or height, it's tabo to draft centers high, Wilson had past injuries.  All that said, those dudes just dominated at their respective positions. Our scouting department and Morgan need the K.I.S.S montra--keep it simple stupid. STOP overthinking it.

      This team has long had an allergy to the obvious pick. They take an XL and think they can coach him up to be the next megaton or DK. Brooks to be the next Peterson. Burns to be the next LT. They pick dudes and play them outside of their natural position. They draft for need, get desperate, pick the flawed guy, and the results speak for themselves. They go to the store jonesing for a ribeye, the store is sold out except for the ‘manager’s special’ … and end up with a toilet of puke later that night…  whereas the filet that was sitting right next to it got some other dude laid.  The obvious pick with no need of coaching up has done them pretty well. Moose. Peppers. Kuechly. Davis. Gross. Jenkins, etc.  Sometimes obvious is just obvious. Consistently missing on first and second rounders gets them exactly where they are. Loser teams, devoid of talent and a revolving door at head coach.  WR: Pick the guy who can catch the damn ball. DE: pick the guy who can play the run well. Pass rush is nice, but playing the run is better.  center: smart big guy who doesn’t miss assignments.  tackle: good pass protector first. Run blocker second. If you have a really good QB and receivers that can catch, the running game will open itself up by default.    It’s not THAT hard, right? Diamonds in the rough are usually only quartz. Stop picking up dudes whose flaw is THE primary skill required for their position, thinking that you’ve got some sort of magical staff. Go BPA with the healthy guy who just flat out gets it done better than anyone else still available…. Except for a RB or special teamer. Yes BPA is boring, but it stacks the team with legit talent.    That’s what I’m going to call their reaches from now on. The f-in manager’s special. Break out the cast iron griddle, Montreal steak seasoning, and some avocado oil.
