The first thing I ever saw David Paymer in was Carpool. Then I saw him in The Lesser Evil, which was a very good film that I thought could’ve easily been based on a Stephen King work (stylistically). Then he had a pretty prominent role in a TV series called Line of Fire in ’04 that was canceled in its first season. It’s so disappointing because I really admired his work.

Funny thing though, I came to this site looking for Bruce McGill and he was second on the list. I was just telling my mother how he looks like a male version of Tyne Daly. (Look her up if you don’t know who that is).

I had a thought about actors such as these ( sort of ) myself. When the Expendables came out I began imagining a satire movie called the Unsungables featuring all the action actors whose name you don’t know even though you have seen them so often.

So far all I can think up off the top of my head are

James Remar ( The Warriors, Judge Dredd, The Phantom, Mortal Kombat 2: Armageddon etc. )

Tommy Flannagan ( Braveheart, Sin City, Gladiator, Smoking Aces )

That’s all I can get of the top of my head. Actors who have escaped this roster.

Ron Perlman

Danny Trejo

I would have really liked it if you’d put the names UNDERNEATH the pictures, I’m dead good at “that guy” naming, I would’ve got almost all of them right. Spoilt my fun.

Actually, the line from James Tolkan in “Top Gun” is “Your ego is writing checks your body can’t cash.”

“You’re mouth is righting checks your butt can’t cash.” Enough said.

Wow the spelling errors there are full of fail =p

Just a note; it’s Inigo Montoya, not Indigo…

I have no idea what you referenced for Gary Cole but he was supremely awesome as Sheriff Lucas Buck in American Gothic.
