Spunky · 08-16-2005, 05:50 PM

Mostly comedians,Eddie Murphy,Chris Rock,Richard Pryor,Cosby

chaze · 08-16-2005, 05:52 PM

No contest: Eddie Murphy

Then down the road: Samuel L. Jackson

OG LennyT · 08-16-2005, 05:53 PM

Denzel hands down and by far and away, although Will Smith did a great job on 'Ali'

JuiceMonkey · 08-16-2005, 06:03 PM

Dave Chapelle
Chris Rock
Don Cheadle

Why did you list like every black actor?

XMaster · 08-16-2005, 06:04 PM

Morgan freeman and Jamie Foxx !! Definitly the best

Doctor Dre · 08-16-2005, 06:04 PM

In order :
Denzel Washington
Samuel L Jackson
Cuba Gooding Jr
Will Smith
DMX (never die alone was great)

Antonio · 08-16-2005, 06:08 PM

apart from the ones that everybody knows this guy is very good too:

I hate this guy Denzel Washington I don't understand how people like him, he seems so fake when he acts.

I actually do like the DMX, he was great in the movie where he came to LA and started selling coke and paying old debts.

wjxxx · 08-16-2005, 06:12 PM

Samuel L. Jackson and Will Smith

yep.. same here.. and you can add eddie murphy in comedic roles.

Denzel Washington - not to mention he's gorgeous/sexy
Samuel L Jackson - he's Samuel Jackson
Cuba Gooding Jr - made me cry a couple of times
Will Smith - versatile
Morgan Freeman , Chris Rock

killerkay · 08-16-2005, 06:14 PM

I like Edward Norton

Freakster · 08-16-2005, 06:21 PM

Jack Black

demented · 08-16-2005, 06:27 PM

Eddie Murphy..

cayne · 08-16-2005, 06:31 PM

Denzel Washington, Will Smith, Cuba, Freeman, Samuel L. Jackson, Wesley - they are all great! But Denzel in "Training Day" - 110%

DaLord · 08-16-2005, 06:47 PM

Samuel L. Jackson for sure. That dude is too tough.

Paparazzi · 08-16-2005, 06:53 PM

Samuel L. Jackson

reed_4 · 08-16-2005, 06:59 PM

Denzel Washington
Will Smith
Morgan Freeman
Eddie Murphy

Grinder · 08-16-2005, 07:01 PM

Samual Jackson is great... except in Star Wars. Wasn't his fault, his dialog sucked. They should have brougt in Tarintino to punch up his dialog, you know... let him get midevil on the Sith's ass!

I really liked Tupac Shakur in his last two movies, Gang Related and Gridlock'd.

Terrence Dashon Howard did a great job in "Hustle and Flow". I'd like to see him work more.

Tala · 08-16-2005, 07:01 PM

Morgan Freeman
Samuel L Jackson
Lawrence Fishburn
Eddie Murphy

SinSational · 08-16-2005, 07:04 PM

lol

this made me laugh

Vitasoy · 08-16-2005, 07:14 PM

I'll go with... Wil Smith and Chris Rock

phatzane® · 08-16-2005, 07:16 PM

samuel jackson beer maaafucka!! it'll get you drunk!!!

and DMX is a really good actor!! very believeable

sean416 · 08-16-2005, 07:17 PM

Not in order:
Samuel L Jackson
Will Smith
Cuba
Jamie Foxx
Morgan Freeman
Wesley Snipes (Demolition man - come on ya'll!! lol)

Comedians like Chris Rock arent on my list for that reason, they're comedians not actors. and cheadle is on my radar, boogie nights, hotel rwanda and snatch were all good performances, but he aint quite there yet. he needs more hotel rwanda type movies to get on this level.

but anybody without samuel l jackson on their list is a hater!

Denzel is the Tom Hanks of black actors. Actually, he might be a better actor than Hanks imho.

I think Will Smith is such a lame actor

Hmmm... Both Denzel and Tom Hanks both had leading roles in Philadelphia. Now let's see.... who got the Oscar?
