Great argument.
The Coach from Remember the Titans = Walter Garber from The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 =  John Q (terrible movie btw) = Frank Lucas

different roles, same style of acting

he's predictable

LEONARDO DICRAPRIO

One of my favorite actors of all time, blows my mind everytime I watch him on screen.

By far way more versatile than Denzel, Denzel does different roles but hes still acting the same way

I never seen Denzel do a role thats out of his range like Leo did on What's Eating Gilbert Grape

Like I said, Leo has some more work to do to catch Denzel.
 
Denzel has been in some great movies, can't even argue that.

But as far as acting ability? Its not even close - Leonardo by a mile.

He's gotta be of the best actors of our time.

yeah ive said the same things about denzel on here before....but this example is kinda off huh, its one of Leo's first movies
 
I'm pretty sure Leo could but people are going to cry racism if he gets his skin darken for the role
 
I think it'll have to depend on the role they portray. (obviously)

I prefer Leo though, but Denzel is amazing none the less. I hate when any of them play the villain.

John Q's a terrible movie? Okay, you're done kiddo. Your opinion is null and void.
 
you know how they made it blatantly obvious that leo was a nut job in shutter island yet people still believed his side of the story leaving the movie theatre
how u act so good people throw away common sense
sick.gif
 make u straight up question ur own sanity...whats real n whats fake 
sick.gif


but as far denzel goes he always plays a strong/dominent personality to compliment his strong dominant nature ...not once have u seen him vulnerable ..(simping,,nutjob,drug abuser etc)
 
out of all the movies Ive seen of Leo's tho some of which remain my favorite...I cant honestly say I cant see Denzel playin the role

but some of those roles are tailored to a young kid, which obviously Denzel cant do i.e. Catch me If you can, Departed

but u dont think he could pull of shutter island??...i can see denzel doing that one

excellent movie by the way....I believed his character lol
 
Leo > Denzel any day.

It still blows me away how good Leo is at accents (Blood Diamond, Body of Lies, The Departed, etc..)
 
Edward Norton.

Hands down

Anyone seen Primal Fear?.. First time i watched it i was in ore, plus he's so diverse e.g American History X when he plays the reformed nazi.

Dudes sick... (i heard he got a Christian Bale type of attitude :/ )

I'm not here to argue with you cause ur not even making sense

What about his style of acting in Training Day? What was that similar to?
 
going to have to go with leo, dude is my favorite actor. but denzel is also one of my favs.
