    That is my pick, definitely.

    Also, like FLEA in The Big Lebowski. (He plays one of the nihilists.)

    Great pick.

    Any Mark Wahlberg role for me as well as Harry Connick, Jr. in "Copycat" where he plays the serial killer, Daryll Lee Cullum.

    BTW, Xero - I thought you were going to start going by "Jeremiah" now instead of your old account?

    Mick Jagger - Performance
    Prince - Purple Rain
    Robbie Robertson - Carny
    Sam Phillips - Die Hard with a vengeance

    Even though I haven't seen the movie, people have told me Greg Allman was good in Rush.

    And who could forget the Bee Gees in Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band.

    Speaking of Flea, he was great in the Back to the Future movies as Needles.

    Can't start threads with the new handle yet. :)
