Well I know if I said actor and actress no one would put down actors!
1: Simon Yam One of my favorite actors period
2: Sonny Chiba Baddest of Badasses
3: Chow Yun Fat Great in action or comedy
4: Takashi Shimura The real star of 7 samurai
5: Tony Leung Award winning actor
Haven’t seen enough of Mifune to put on the list.
Honorable mentions Kitano, Dean Shek, Tse

;D
Shinichi Chiba - He alone can make a film worth a watch
Eiji Go - Always as much fun
Richard Ng – The funniest man in Asia
Anthony Wong - The king of Cat III
Yusaku Matsuda – Has received too little acclaim outside Japan
Strangely that list doesn’t even reflect my taste that well. None of those actors appear in any of my top 10 favourite asian movies

Richard Ng – The funniest man in Asia[/quote]
Richard Ng Yiu-hon or
Richard Ng Man-tat ?
Yiu-hon
I didn’t know there were two of them.
a few weeks ago I watched Magnificent Warriors. After some time I started wondering where’s Richard, and excatly 7 second later he shows up (anyne who’s seen the film and remembers how he enters the film can understand the extra irony here)
My list goes something like that:
- Chow yun Fat
- Aaron Kwok
- Nicholas Tse
- Joe Odagiri
- Tadanobu Asano
ah, how could I have forgotten Odagiri Jo from my list. Odagiri in, Go out.

Takashi Shimura rocked in Drunken Angel.
Wong out, Takakura in. What a fantastic actor.
