I'm boycotting this topic, as I was watching (apparently not closely enough) to post answer 13 so I could pick the next topic. For what is a thread about Bill Paxton without a thread about Bill Pullman? I can't think of two actors who get confused for each other more often.

Not sure I could come up with 13 Bill Pullman movies off the top of my head. After 7 or 8 it'd get pretty sketchy.

Okay, I'd like to do the same but for Best Actor winner and who should have won.

1. Adrien Brody (The Pianist)...actually it's Daniel Day-Lewis (Gangs of New York)!

2. Nicolas Cage (Leaving Las Vegas), should have been Richard Dreyfuss (Mr. Holland's Opus) - my personal opinion dunno whether anyone agrees.
