Liam Neeson. Wise man who with abnormal fighting skills who is setting out to find the truth, his daughter, his past, etc.Razor-Lazor

Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace: Jedi Person/Guy/Dude/Human being who is training Obi Wan Ken OHHH Bi to be some super warrior Guy/Dude/Human.

Even though he had abnormal fighting skills, he wasn't looking for the truth, his daughter, nor his past.

In Clash of the Titans he played Zeus, who was none of those things.

You must of only saw two movies by himthen. Because he sure seemed different playing Zeus in Clash of the Titans. Or Ra's al Ghul in Batman or Qui Gon Jin in Star Wars or how about OskarSchindler in Schindler's List. All you listed was Taken and Unknown.

Glad to see I wasn't the only one who saw this. Liam Neeson is a great actor if you ask me.
Edit: Also he is your freggin dad in Fallout 3. I thought that was epic.

I thought the voice sounded oddly familiar, I just couldn't put a name to the voice. It makes so much sense now.

Owen Wilson. kamikaze_pigmy
this what I was going to say, and yet I still like the guy when I see one of his movies. I just feel like I am watching the many adventures of Owen Wilson. And that's okay with me.

Morgan Freeman. He's a wise elder, giving advice to the younger protagonist.

quite a few actors really do this. a lot of female actors if they get thrown in 2 or 3 romance comedies.....then it usually seems to start some trend that they never break out of. jennifer aniston is probably the most guilty. shes been play a 20 year old for years now.

You can take Leonardo Dicaprio's character in any of his movies, and place him in another one of his movies and it wouldn't make a difference. Still a great actor though.

hmm i think Leo is actually a very unique actor. He def plays a lot of different types of roles.

Yeah because his character in "Whats eating Gilbert Grape" could so be used in his other movies.

I used to be hard on Dicaprio due to his "pretty boy" image, which just has this general stomach turning effect on me. It's probably jealousy. Besides that, I also associate pretty boy actors with bad actors, mainly due to the likes of Keannu Reaves.

But I can no longer do that to Dicaprio. I do think he actually is a great actor, and that role in particular demonstrates it. His portrayal of a mentally handicapped teenager was the most convincing I've ever seen.

Agreed. It's why I like a lot of actors, actually. I also like how some take on different roles, like Christian Bale. I think the reason why some actors choose to stay with a particular role is because that role is something that relates to them. As a result, they do it well. Although, a person can act much differently than how they appear.

Hmmm, as much as I loved that movie, he was still playing a man child, just replace "idiot" with "emotionally unstable".
