Don't misunderstand me. I don't think he's the greatest ACTOR of all time. (But He's Up There). But, he probably has the greatest career of all time. I mean, come on, who else can you call a Jedi, an Avenger, and play some of the greatest Tarantino roles ever. This guy's career just can't be beat. I'd love to hear some of your objections and who you think has the best career.

Yeah, while his movies box office take is impressive, it's a combination of successful films and quantity. Of course he has a large box office total, he does a lot of movies. I mean an actor like Tom Cruise in can make a movie that makes 200 million and Sam can make 5 movies that make 300 million. That doesn't mean he is more successful, just that he had more movies and thus more opportunity for those numbers.
