Hey GoC1….14 is solid. I have seen all but two of his movies….as I have not seen Butter or Erskineville Kings. I have not even heard of the latter movie. Good comment.
Hugh Jackman is the # 64 most connectible actor of the 2010’s.
Thank you Dan.
STEVE 1 Jackman is obviously most famous for the X Men/Wolverine movies but regretfully that franchise is not my cup of tea. However as he is an excellent actor he has thankfully done other things that I could enjoy such as the crime thrillers Deception and Swordfish though you do not rate those 2 over-highly.
2 Certainly also I can have no quibble with your X Men/Wolverine POSTERS all of which I thought were top notch and I also admired those for Van Helsing, The Fountain, Scoop, Pan, Chappie and especially Logan Very interesting were those from Van Helsing, Australia, the Prestige, Real Steel, Logan and again all of the ones for the X Men/Wolverine films.
3 Unusually not only do Bruce and you agree on the entire Top 5 but you both have them in the exact same order! For me the video overall had a 95% rating value.
Hi Bob, thanks for checking out my Wolverine video, much appreciated.
Glad you liked some of the posters and stills.
One third of the movies on my list were X-Men / Wolverine films. He has a short cameo in X-Men First Class and an uncredited action sequence in X-Men Apocalypse.
I agree he is an excellent actor and I was surprised how effective he was in the musical Les Miserables, winning the Golden Globe and nabbing an Oscar nomination too.
You’re right Bruce and I not only have the same top 5 but in the same order too, I wonder if that’s the first time that’s happened? Symmetry at last! 🙂
Only one Hugh Jackman film scored 10 out of 10 from my sources and it isn’t even in the top 5 – The Fountain. The highest scoring Jackman movie at IMDB was The Prestige, a good film about rival magicians, directed by Christopher Nolan.
Nolan directed the highly successful Dark Knight trilogy plus Inception and Interstellar, he has a fanatical and somewhat rabid fanbase always complaining that their favorite Nolan film isn’t in the no.1 spot on one of my videos.
I don’t mind the ranking.
Hugh is the One and Only actor with such an extraordinary appearance.
He is a phenomenon among the actors all over the world.
Be blessed, dear Hugh!
