Gee whiz, folks, Jack Nicholson in a few good men, Paul Newman in Cool Hand Luke and The Verdict, Dustin Hoffman in Tootsie RainMan and The Graduate, Dana Carvey as Bush 1, Sally Field, Olympia Dukakis and Shirley McClain in Steel Magnolias, Robin Williams in Good Morning, Vietnam. We have had some awesome casting through the years. Thanks.

I agree with all of these!
But might I add Emma Watson as Hermione in Harry Potter.

Poor Heath, he was a phemonmenal actor, he was flawless in "Brokeback Mountain" he was great. I will really miss him. I thought he was great in "10 Things I Hate About You" this was his first big role in a movie. He was destined for acting greatness, what a terrible loss for his Family and his Fans. RIP Heath.

Thanks for this inspiration, it's been food for thought and I am going to start a discussion about this on my actors blog. These actors are great at these characters, yes. But do they all belong on the same list?
Some of them are on there but have been great in many roles. They are just really great actors. Great acting craft and skill, mixed with charisma, can turn many roles into great ones. (Along with a great script,e tc)
Some of these actors do fit perfectly, casting was attuned to their talents. Others may be "this way" all the time, naturally having the same traits as the characters they play.
