Sir Christopher Lee - The man is a true legend to the industry, in my opinion he has been the best actor to don the 'cloak and fangs' to play Count Dracula (sorry Bela), his role as Lord Summerisle in the Wicker Man still sends a chill down my spine every-time i view that film and this is without the need for brute strength, new and inventive ways of killing someone and cheesy one liners. His latter roles in The Lord of the Rings Trilogy and The Star Wars Trilogy proves he still has what it takes. Although i'll always remember him for his roles in the Hammer Horror films, his chemistry with (the now sadly departed) Vincent Price and Peter Cushing was second to none. He is definitely one of Britains not to mention the industries greats.

Why the hell isn't Harrison Ford up there??????
Because he plays the same person in every movie, same facial expressions, he just acts like himself. I can't believe that you are comparing Ford to the likes of Lawrence Olivier, Alec Guinnessr or Gene Hackman. Sean Connery shouldn't even be on this list. Jack Nicholson once again only plays the same character again and again.
And where the hell is Morgan Freeman?!

Excuse me? You want to tell me which one of Harrison's other characters could be compared to Allie Fox? And also, Harrison is unfortunately, in real life, a rather boring man. Not somebody you could put in the same catagory as Han Solo.
Of course he is boring, he's a regular guy. He isn't a FBI agent, President, Archeologist/adventurer or intersteller rogue. He plays different characters, but with the same dead pan delivery that he gives an interview with.
When you see him in a movie you see Harrison Ford, not the character. Being in a bunch of good or profitable movies does not make you a great actor.
