  3. Mickey Rourke:
    An american who's thick Russian accent provided an a amazing but comedic performance in Iron Man 2, he fulfilled the role of an evil villain bent on revenge amazingly well. How ever I will always remember him repeating the words "I want my bird" , but sounded like "Burd"
    He also made a appearance in Stormbreaker, a movie based on a popular book series, he once again portrayed the villain and you guessed it hell bent on revenge.

  4. Steve McQueen! The King of Cool.

    An American, who's shown up in a lot of action and western films, including 'Tom Horn', the story of an ex-soldier in the American cavalry, and his exploits working for farmers in the American frontier, foiling cattle rustlers and dealing with betrayal at the hands of those who hired him.

    He's also been in other films such as 'The Great Escape', 'The Magnificent Seven' and that B-movie, 'The Blob'.

  5. *woop* a homework i actually like :D
    Okay, because i like this task i wanna do two people.
    first off is *insert drum roll here* Christopher Walken (yeah i know we watched him already).
    well for starters he is an amazing actor featuring in such films as "A view to a kill" along side the british institute known as "Sir Roger Moore". In this he played an ego-maniacal millionaire called Max. Zorrin.
    He has also starred in films such as "Hairspray", "Sleepy Hollow", "Batman Returns", and a whole load of my other favorite films :D
    Next up is Robert De Nero!
    This guy is fantastico, Not only can he play Frankenstein's Monster in "Mary Shelley's Frankenstein" but he can also play a spectacularly funny transexual sky pirate in "stardust", his film roster is too numerous to list but some of my personal favorites of his are, "meet the fockers", "meet the parents", "little fockers" and as previously mentioned, "stardust", and, although i haven't yet watched it so i can't give an accurate review, i look forward to watching "Killer elite" staring Robert De Niro, Jason Statham and Yvonne Strahovski (googly-eyes at the last one :D)
