Frankly, my dears, it's a good quote, good in the film and good outside the film, but seriously doubt it'd be #1 in 2022. Give to the better 1939 classic, give it to Dorothy.

You're judging based on looks instead of acting talent? Shallow, dude, really shallow.

I remember this list coming out. i believe the rule was that their debut was before 1950. At this point ya got to be really old now and really young when you got your start. Poitier was 23 in 1950.
Poitier again a top 10 actor, but I guess if they're counting star power, I guess 22 makes sense.

That's the only group entry on the list. And while the picture shows all 4 of them, they only named Chico, Harpo and Groucho, and poor Zeppo got cast to the curb again. And Gummo wasn't mentioned or shown at all.

No, no, no. It'll always be Groucho, Chico, Harpo and Clarence Walker.

Is it me or does Taylor Swift look kind of like Shirley Temple?
Robert Mitchum is Hot. That could be what is weird about it... If you sense this hotness but aren't sure what to do with it.

Weird. I see it in that picture.

No, I'm more a pretty boy type. But I guess this is a bad-boy street wise thing. I don't get it.

Then I do not understand your question. Are you lamenting the lack of modern stars of this caliber (which doesn't sound like you), or are you asking why they would limit it in that way?
