What actors (film, TV, stage) would you REALLY want to meet and talk to?

I would love to meet Elijah Wood, Viggo Mortensen, Billy Boyd, Ian Holms and Ian McKellen of the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

Also Ewan McGreggor and Johnny Depp, as I think they are both excellent actors, and seem like they would be fun at a party.

Heather Locklear, just because!!
Sean Connery, seems like the kind you could learn something from.

Well, most of these "star" actors seem to have inflated egos (maybe this goes with the job) & from what I see of them on TV interviews I find them most objectionable. Either that or completely inarticulate & boring. On a par with the average rock star. Just because they can act or sing doesn't make them interesting. I wouldn't have minded meeting John Wayne or some of the old Star actors. Nobody could party like the old hell-raisers Lee Marvin, Oliver Reed & company. Being with David Niven & his old cronies must have been a lot of fun.

Of the present lot, John Travolta seems an interesting chap & could teach me a thing or two about flying.

That's why I chose Johnny Depp, as he has been a sort of "black sheep" in the movie industry for a very long time.  Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is one of my favorite movies, and I think he could tell some great stories.

John Travolta would probably be able to tell some great ones, too, simply because of his enormous amount of experience.  I would love to hear about Grease and Pulp Fiction (a couple of my top ten).

Harrison Ford should be added, as he is a magnificent actor (in film).  A conversation with him about his roles would be an education in itself . . .

patrick stewart, great actor.
alyson hannigan(just look at her no reason needed:))
brent spiner(the guys a genius when it comes to the world of both acting and directing)
The Rock(this is guy not only the funniest man on the planet, but also extremely smart)
thats about it really, i dont have this long line of celebrities that i wanna meet really few sports stars, but thats it.

Well, I've already met Clint Eastwood and Kirk Douglas. Eastwood wasn't to bad and Douglas was a class act. I also met Phil Donahue during the Presidential debates at Dartmouth College when I was there in 1984. He was a complete joke and seemed to think everyone was to bow and scrape in his presence. I wasn't impressed with him to say the least. I've met President Ronald Reagan (a very nice fellow) and Ted Kennedy (a real loser in my book and a drunk). As to an actor that I haven't met, I'd like to meet Tom Hanks. By all accounts he is a really nice and humble fellow. He has been said to not have the typical Hollywood arrogance that is associated with 95% of actors and actress's.

i'd like to meet steve mc queen,but he's already dead...

Well there is one " Actor " on here I would like to meet, and thats the man who "acts" so much younger than his claimed years........

...........My vote goes to Foz...........his rare " down-to-earth " approach to all things he says, constantly brings a smile to me............Paul,... Live Long and Prosper !

Who would I like to meet? Hmm, how about Mel Blanc, Sean Connery, Tim Allen, Tom Hanks, Pierce Brosnan. That's about it, or at least all that I can think of right now.

Well, I've already met Clint Eastwood and Kirk Douglas.

Yeah, I'm not much for actors, but I want to meet Clint Eastwood.  Dirty Harry is my all time favorate movie!

Just that one line; "You gotta ask yourself...Do you feel lucky?  Well, do you, punk?!"

 I think he'd be a cool guy...

I also like Clint Eastwood

[quote]What do you think I'm some kind of moron?

As far as down to earth "famous people" I have actually met.
I had the extreme pleasure of meeting Tim Conway just last year. I had never laughed so hard to "clean" humor in my life it didn't matter where you were trying to get the conversation going he would find humor in something and just make you bust a gut!!
And Bill Cosby, I met him after a show he did in MI years ago.
He to can make you laugh at just about anything.

And for Sports star Richard Petty, the most down to earth sporting figure ever, I watched him sign autographs for at least 300 people and he talked to every one, and anyone who wanted a autograph got one he wouldn't leave until everyone had the chance to meet him who wanted too.
Anyone name me one "famous person" that will do that!
