Highest paid actors
Forbes released its list of the highest paid actors in Hollywood and the rankings are as follows:
1. Will Smith. I think he is deserving of the number one spot. His movies bring in mega bucks, and he remains popular down to earth.
2. Johnny Depp. Although I have always thought of Johnny Depp as a strange and weird person, his movies do well at the box office, and he is an extremely talented actor.
3. Eddie Murphy. He is not deserving of the number three spot. Yes, he won praise from his role in “Dreamgirls” but I still don’t think that’s good enough to be on this list. His latest few movies have really made me no longer a fan of his. I wish we could get the old Eddie Murphy. I wish he would give us the Eddie that we saw in “Coming to America,” “The Nutty Professor,” “48 Hours” and “Beverly Hills Cop.”
4. Mike Myers. People only remember Mike Myers from his Austin Powers days. Of course he did voice overs for the “Shrek” movies, but I don’t think that’s good enough for him to be on this list.
5. Leonardo DiCaprio. Has he even had a hit movie since “Titanic?”
6. Bruce Willis. He deserves to be here, but only because I feel sorry for him ever since he lost his wife Demi Moore to that corny guy Ashton Kutcher.
7. Ben Stiller. I haven’t seen any of his movies in a long time, but I know he’s still a funny guy.
8. Nicolas Cage. My favorite Nic Cage movie of all time is “Raising Arizona.” To me, all of his recent movies have failed in comparison, especially “Ghost Rider.”
9. Will Ferrell. I personally think he should be ranked a few spots higher. Ferrell’s movies are usually funny, and I do miss him on Saturday Night Live.
10. Adam Sandler. I also think he should have been ranked a few spots higher as well. His movies tend to do well at the box office, and the audience never gets burned out from him.
