What actors (film, TV, stage) would you REALLY want to meet and talk to?

I would love to meet Elijah Wood, Viggo Mortensen, Billy Boyd, Ian Holms and Ian McKellen of the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

Also Ewan McGreggor and Johnny Depp, as I think they are both excellent actors, and seem like they would be fun at a party.

Well, most of these "star" actors seem to have inflated egos (maybe this goes with the job) & from what I see of them on TV interviews I find them most objectionable. Either that or completely inarticulate & boring. On a par with the average rock star. Just because they can act or sing doesn't make them interesting. I wouldn't have minded meeting John Wayne or some of the old Star actors. Nobody could party like the old hell-raisers Lee Marvin, Oliver Reed & company. Being with David Niven & his old cronies must have been a lot of fun.

Of the present lot, John Travolta seems an interesting chap & could teach me a thing or two about flying.

patrick stewart, great actor.
alyson hannigan(just look at her no reason needed:))
brent spiner(the guys a genius when it comes to the world of both acting and directing)
The Rock(this is guy not only the funniest man on the planet, but also extremely smart)
thats about it really, i dont have this long line of celebrities that i wanna meet really few sports stars, but thats it.

i'd like to meet steve mc queen,but he's already dead...

Who would I like to meet? Hmm, how about Mel Blanc, Sean Connery, Tim Allen, Tom Hanks, Pierce Brosnan. That's about it, or at least all that I can think of right now.

I also like Clint Eastwood  - as an actor. For all I know he might be a very interesting chap but remember - in his films he's playing a role & reading from a script written by someone else. Too many fans seem to expect their favourite actors to behave in real life like they do on the big screen. Many of these people are in fact quite boring when they're playing themselves.

What do you think I'm some kind of moron?  I just like they film.  He's made some great movies, and it'd probably be interesting to talk to him about them...and stuff. ???

Sock

P.S.  What, besides movies or plays etc.... Would you talk about with an actor?  ???

As far as down to earth "famous people" I have actually met.
I had the extreme pleasure of meeting Tim Conway just last year. I had never laughed so hard to "clean" humor in my life it didn't matter where you were trying to get the conversation going he would find humor in something and just make you bust a gut!!
And Bill Cosby, I met him after a show he did in MI years ago.
He to can make you laugh at just about anything.

And for Sports star Richard Petty, the most down to earth sporting figure ever, I watched him sign autographs for at least 300 people and he talked to every one, and anyone who wanted a autograph got one he wouldn't leave until everyone had the chance to meet him who wanted too.
Anyone name me one "famous person" that will do that!
