Hugo Weawing! His Hugoness Is definitely the greatest male actor there is!!! :p

No, really, Hugo Weawing. Pants down. And hands down, too.

I could name a dozen other ones, but the list would get to numerous, so I sghall just name His Hugoness.

These guys are some of the best actors ever, IMHO. Admittedly, some of them have done some stupid things in times past, but overall their body of work is stunning.

Roger Moore, who was the best James Bond, and Al Pacino; I can hardly forget the role he had as the Devil in a certain movie... Incidentally, I can´t recall the name of that movie as well as his role.

Hint: In a scale from 1 to 10, we made it only to 7...

Unless there was an operation I didn't hear about, Angelina Jolie is not a male, which is what I thought this discussion was limited to.

Gonna go start one of actresses!

Al Pacino is the best, he can't play bad. The movie may suck but he is as always good.
