  • I love Alec Baldwin.

    30 Rock is the only show I watch.

  • @Politicallyactive101 Then you need to expand your horizons.

  • @_Big_DAv at twitter .com

  • I love him.

  • I HATE THE YOUNG TURKS!!!!!

  • he should go on the show. go on the show dude.

  • Sorry guys but Alec is a has been, which is something the rest of his brothers at least wish they were, because they suck.

  • haha me too , love Alec Baldwin!

  • me and Cenk and Alec can have a 3 way ;-)

  • Why does Ana look like a prostitute in this video?

  • Baldwin fucking sucks shit. Team America did it best ;)

  • "I love you" lmao

  • @Coltranized "i love you -smooch-!"

  • Anyone who thinks Alec Baldwin is a failed actor.. rent "The Edge" and watch every second of it.

    If you still think he sucks, then go jump off the sears tower, because there is no hope or purpose for someone like you.

  • I need to re-emphasize this.. Alec Baldwin is one of the greatest movie stars in Hollywood history.

    The Edge, The Departed, The Shadow, The Cooler, The Cat in the Hat, Pearl Harbor, The Hunt for Red October, Great Balls of Fire, Beetlejuice.

    He is an American Neo-Noir Icon.

  • You forgot one of his best roles, Outside Providence! He's fuckin' genius in that movie! You Dildos!

    The Getaway is pretty damn solid as well.

    I've watched The Marrying Man twice, it's not bad at all, it's got a great cast.

    For me, The Shadow is his coolest film. Sure they are remaking the Shadow franchise, and his version flopped, but I'll spit on the movie going public for that one. I saw it as a kid at the movies. It certainly kicks a heaping pile of asses! He's classic.

  • @glamourknight He was brilliant in both the Cooler and The Departed! Brilliant performance!

  • Yes, he is a good actor but all "great" movie stars aren't great actors. Has no one ever seen Glengarry Glen Ross? Why is that when I ask anyone if they have seen that play/film they are stupified. Its embarrassing. It stars KEVIN SPACEY, AL PACINO, ALAN ARKIN, JACK LEMMON, ED HARRIS & JONATHAN PRYCE; all better actors than Alec Baldwin who appears alongside them in his best role (which was actually just a cameo). 1 of the most famous cameos ever. David Mamet directed both The Edge & Glengarry.

  • @capnquack tu, guacala.

  • I bet Cenk think he looks like Alec lol

  • @proximo20

    Cenk looks like Artie Lange.

  • The Edge was a fucking amazing movie!!!! ZOMG!!!! XD

  • he's a pretty good actor, for sure. but yeah, he is mostly a supporting actor in the majority of his films.

  • Cenks mancrush for Alec Baldwin is not unnatural at all. They are both Aries.

  • he was awesome in the departed

  • Morgan Freeman, too bad he is only successfull in suppoting roles, he has never been given a good leading role but in Chain reaction, it wasn't a leading role but he did awsome,

  • Alec should be proud of his movie career.."The Edge" is one of the greatest films I've ever seen in my life.

    "The Shadow" was a stylish and exciting ,he was cast perfectly! It's so underrated..

  • cenk just because you are in love with alec dont be blind by that, be fair.

    when he yield at his kid it was bad, i am sure kids get in our nerves but that does not mean its right to treat them like that.

  • Stephen Baldwin is a moron. Look up his debate on Marijuana with Ron Paul on here. He really is a dumbass.

  • yea I saw that debate, he brings up good points. Ron Paul 2012? You do realize Ron Paul is exactly ONE YEAR OLDER than John McCain right? Fuck Ron Paul he's an old fool

  • You're an idiot if you think Baldwin brought up good points. He said that marijuana leads to worse drugs and more problems in society. This has already been PROVEN to be incorrect after Portugal, Germany, and many other countries decriminalized it.Google "Time Magazine Portugal Drugs" and read one of the studies.If decriminalizing drugs were to lead to more problems in society, dont you think all the countries who did it already would say "wait a second, we have more problems, lets ban it again"

  • we should ban your ass from the U.S.

  • And I never said anything about Ron Paul 2012 or that I support Ron Paul. I said he had a debate with Stephen Baldwin, and Baldwin is a dumbass.

  • Oh come on Cenk everyone knows that Stephen Baldwin is the best actor in that family. At least that is what sarah palin said.

  • Johnny Depp

    Bruce Willis

    Robert Deniro, Brad Pitt, Denzel Washington, Morgan Freeman, Nicholas Cage, George Clooney, Harrison Ford, Michael Keaton, Robin Williams, Tom Hanks, Sean Penn, Kevin Bacon, Meg Ryan, Sandra Bullock, Sigourney Weaver, Angelina Jolie,

    Why can't I think of any Black female actresses besides Whoopi??? lol

  • Oh yeah, how could I forget Martin Sheen or Dennis Hopper?

  • Can't get on board with you on this one, Cenk- what about:

    Robert DeNiro, Dustin Hoffman, Gene Hackman, Jeff Bridges (The Dude Abides!), Tommy Lee Jones, Christopher Walken, Anthony Hopkins, Michael Caine, Sean Connery, or if you prefer guys from the new school, there's Clive Owen, Samuel L. Jackson, George Clooney, Jake Gyllenhaal or Matt Damon-

    I loved Baldwin in "Outside Providence" though... "Hey Dildo, play us a tune on that fancy horn!"

    Now, if he made his way into a Coen Brothers movie?

  • Jack Klugman!

  • Don't forget Ernest Borgnine! I missed a book signing a few months ago. How about George Kennedy and Paul Newman? Lots of great actors abound. I find that acting took a dive after the 70's. Post Star Wars movies rely more heavily on special effects, than the essentials of a really good movie - plot, direction and that magical interplay of an acting ensemble. Example - Avatar. I've only seen the previews, but it looks like a megamillion dollar flop.

  • Hellloooooo people. Gary oldman!

  • i saw alec baldwin preform licoln portrait with the philly orchestra this summer and i thought he delieved the words and their meaning very well. then i got like 4 feet away from him! he is actually pretty short and really red! haha

  • In no particular order:

    Meryl Streep

    Ian Mckellen

    Morgan Freeman

    Amy Adams

    Heath Ledger

    Chiwetel Ejiofor

    Sean Penn

    Johnny Depp

  • He is not th egreatest actor, buyt he has his moments and I always think he is entertaining to watch--love'm...

  • Are you talking about the actors I mentioned or Cenks choice?

  • JM111787 , I meant Alec Baldwin is not the greatest actor. He is a great pop film star. I agree with a few of your choices. but they are all kind of light weight compared to Marlon Brando, J Malkovitch, Phillipe Seymour Hoffman, Jack Nicholson, DeNiro

  • Oh, okay. yeah after I posted that comment I realized that the were a bunch of other actors that I would add to the list. However, I just can't add Jack Nickleson in there. Dont get me wrong he is a good actor but in every movie I see him in I think oh, there is Jack Nicholson, instead of seeing his character first. I think that the best actors are those who can make you forget who they are when you are watching them. Jack brings many of the same interesting mannerisms to all his characters.

  • Comment removed

  • Mickey Rourke did Kim Bassinger better in a "movie" than Alec Baldwin could ever hope to do in real life. Comman! knock knock knock...it is said here ....and thus it is so!

  • Jesus Christ people Ian Mckellen!

    He has been called one of the best actors to ever live. And he is!

    Ian Mckellen

    Heath Ledger

    Johnny Depp

    Jack Nicholson

    Anthony Hopkins

  • 1- Johnny Dp

  • Alec Baldwin in Pearl Harbor was the worst acting job ever.

  • Everybody in Pearl Harbor sucked. That movie was a steaming pile.

  • Daniel Day Lewis is the greatest actor

  • "Next time Jack, send a memo!"

  • Hey ,how about pee wee Herman?

  • Gay or bi then Cenk?

  • Baaaaarrrrrffffffffffffffff !!!!!!!!!!!

  • Morgan Freeman!

  • What about Tom Hanks and Johnny Depp? Can you think of two better male actors? I can't.

  • I had a sex dream about alec baldwin! Last night! now thats a coincidence.....

  • A man crush does not especially mean anything sexual

  • Every straight guy has a secret man-crush. Fact.

  • :( Does this mean 30 rock is over 2012? nuuuuuu

  • I feel the same way about Dennis Kucinich.

  • I dig Alec Baldwin too. I loved his work on the "Edge" and I loved his work on "The Hunt For Red October". He's a great actor. Plus, he'll always hold a special place in my heart for the time he shredded Sean Hannity and Mark Levin. It's on YouTube where Baldwin is confronted by Hannity and Levin and he just slices them to pieces! It was so funny! He called Hannity "no talent" and he called Levin "cabin boy"!. It was priceless!

  • what do you mean cenk came out is he gay?

  • It was meant to be ironic, no he's not.

  • I'm glad cenk came out i support you cenk

  • I love him to!

    He's SUCH a great actor! <3

  • tom cruise , will smith , brad pitt , johnny depp & leonardo dicaprio are the best now

  • No just WILL SMITH & Leonardo Dicaprio an Brad pitt lil

  • tom cruise & will smith r da best everr PERIOD

  • Ana's looking hot as usual.

  • First prize is a Cadillac, second prize is a set of steak knives. Third prize is you're fired.

  • "Your name is Levine, You call yourself a salesman, you son of a bitch?"

  • hahahah such a good scene

    "The leads are weak"

    "The leads are weak. The fuckin leads are weak? You're weak, I've been in this biz 15 yrs"

    "what's your name?"

    "fuck you, that's my name"

  • PUT THAT COFFE DOWN.

    coffee is for closers.

  • He is in a sucessful show, i dont understand why he would want to stop and announce when hes gonna stop acting 3 years before it happens

  • Hahaha Cenk.. I think Alex is a decent actor, but ever since I heard him say these two lines in 'The Departed', I can't help but laugh whenever I hear his voice. Those lines are:

    "MICROPWACESSOHRS"

    "How about a smoke? Want a smoke? You dont smoke do ya? What are ya one of those fitness freaks? huh? Go fuck yourself"

  • How much would it cost for Ana to do a spread?

  • Jet Li is a better actor than Alec Baldwin

  • With all respect, Cenk is the worst actor himself. I respect and like him, but come on, thinking he knows anything about acting when he himself tries to be funny on his own show and just seems stupid? Nah.

  • Looking at Ana's cleavage makes me feel better.

  • let him quit its his loss

  • I'll say it- The Shadow is awesome.

  • Why don't Cenk go meet Mr. Baldwin and say how much you love him.....lol

  • ALEC IS A MESS! And like most people who get themselves into a mess, want to tell you about God after they find him. I as a Christian find all this really stupid. He has become another extremist.

  • You've got the wrong Baldwin.

    The born-again one is Daniel I believe.

  • "squirrel" Stephen is the nutty one.

  • Hahah Stephen is such a bad actor. I watched a movie he did called "sub down", which turned out to be a colossal pile of crap. It had ONE good moment where his character 'freaks out' and punches the wall in exasperation; what made it good was that you could see Stephen actually fuck up his hand when he did it and his face was priceless.

  • stephen

  • I have a man crush on him too!!!

  • Alec Baldwin's "God" speech in Malice was over the top. He made me a believer - that he was God.

  • Alec may be taking it over the top a little but it sure is a breath of fresh air. If I hear Megan Fox whine about her roles not being intellectual enough for her one more time I'm liable to throw a brick through my TV.

    Alec Baldwin rocks, let's just ignore his silly sitcom for the moment ;)

  • Meryl Streep bitches!!!

  • gene hackman, great actor.

    russel crowe in 'the insider'

    will smith in 'persuit of happiness'

    it too hard to judge who is the best, but you can certainy narrow it down to about 10-20

  • Leonardo DiCaprio is the best living actor.

  • He's okay, there are better actors.

  • Hunt for Red October. That is all.

  • I served Alec and Kim at a Bennigan's in Athens, Ga 15 years ago. He is the best! Yea 30 Rock!

  • coming from a server...? that means something.

    you wanna know if someone is cool....? ask a server.

  • Michael Keaton is well under rated.

  • I luv 30rock...so... do you get man boobs wt that man crush... lol ...bieng j Malcovch...i would not recomend that 1 for many but...only JM could have done something so....peace love hope

  • I still like Alec. More for his looks.

  • I love you... rofl

  • That was awesome.

  • "Wait a minute!"

  • Baldwin and Malkovich? Seriously? Malkovich was horrible in Rounders, can't really see how anyone could have done _WORSE_ job.

    Of course Malkovich was pretty good in Of Mice and Men etc. and being John Malkovich returned my faith on his acting. But come on..

    How about Samuel L. Jackson, Daniel Day-Lewis, Ralph Fiennes, Ed Norton and Kevin Spacey? Not to mention De Niro, Hopkins etc.

  • What about the lead role in Starship Troopers!!! That was good acting!!!

  • I think Alec is amazing. I'll watch anything he is in. He wins the Golden Globe or Emmy just about every year for 30 Rock, the show wouldn't be the same without him. And I really liked that movie Malice too.

  • Bwahahahaahah....Bwahahahaahah­ah

  • You guys got Alan Grayson, you may be able to get a Baldwin. If you're lucky you'll get Alec but if not....Stephen

  • Alec Baldwin is okay, but I dunno... He looks like a sleezy child molester, so for that reason alone I don't watch his crap. I mean, he was horrible in Cat in the Hat, even worse in Edge.

  • malcovich sucks have you seen eragorn?

  • Hoooooooooow is John Malkovich a good actor? Someone explain this to me.

  • He was good in Of Mice and Men

  • Robert Deniro shits on this guy.

  • I've always found Baldwin compelling. Whatever character he plays he holds your attention.

    Strange to think he's still chasing "success".

    Hey Alec, you made it already! So grow up and stop whining.

  • He's a likable guy, but I wouldn't call him a great actor. He's a bit of a B-list actor to me. & he's right - he hasn't been in a truly great movie.

  • Alec Baldwin is 1 of the best actors in the past 30 years of movies. Drama or Comedy he is great much respect 2 Mr. Baldwin.

  • the edge is just EPIC ... epic

  • Ohhhh is Cenk saying homosexuality is "unnatural" xD

  • SupremePenguinTone: What makes you think Cenk sets the headlines of these YT clips?

  • It is

  • Billy Baldwin: Hey Alec, you know what sucks about being a Baldwin?

    Alec Baldwin: No, what?

    Billy Baldwin: Nothing!

    *Canadians bomb them both*

  • Is Alec Baldwin still around?

    I thought

    he left the country after George Bush won his re-election. I mean, he said that he would.

    I guess, like many other liberals,

    he "lied".

  • Yeah, because Bush never lied

  • Alec Baldwin is really good on 30 Rock but I lost all respect for him after beating his ex-wife Kim Bassinger and that phone message to his daughter. He said things to her that you just don't say to any woman much less a little girl who calls you dad.

  • damn it. I was hoping Ana would equal things out by revealing her respective girl-crush!!

    oh well!!!

  • Sean Connery/ Al Pacino have me in facking tears everytime

  • Not that he's horrible, but there are soooo many better actors than Baldwin...

    Ben Kingsley, Ian McKellen, Michael Cane, Robert De Niro, Johnny Depp, Tom Hanks, Sean Penn, James Stewart, Hugh Jackman, Matthew Broderick, Robert Redford, Christopher Walken, Heath Ledger, Edward Norton, Morgan Freeman, Patrick Stewart, Forest Whitaker, Clint Eastwood, Anthony Hopkins, Sidney Poitier...

    WTF, Cenk!?! I could sit here and name better actors than Alec Baldwin all day! Who cares if he quits?

  • Alec Baldwin???

    Cocaine's a hell of a drug!!!

  • Ana is fine.

  • Gary Oldman is the best actor in hollywood.

  • I'll second that!

  • There's something me and Cenk have in common.

  • Cenk wants your ass, Baldwin.

  • I want Cenk and Alec's! Man they are both so damn luscious so to hear Cenk go off about my Alec is just the hottest thing of all time!

  • It's not unnatural.

  • ok heres the thing, Samuel L Jackson and Christopher Walken are not the most versatile actors in the world but they always always give stella performances.

    Alec Baldwin has been terrible in every thing I have ever seen him in. I for one turn the channel when I see his face.

    I do how ever respect him in the same way I respect solja boy because their ability to earn whilst shitting on an art form is astounding.

    So what if I despise your work you did what you did and succeeded. Just please stop.

  • Malkovitch and Baldwin are in your Top 2 for movies? Ever heard of Morgan Freeman or Daniel-Day Lewis? How about Jack Nicholson? Baldwin is however the #1 actor in the television right now.

  • Alec Baldwin...second best actor in the world? Cenk...are you on caine?

  • That glengarry glen ross scene is freaking awesome.

  • Alec Baldwin and George Clooney = classic silver foxes. yummy.

  • tom cruise , will smith , brad pitt , johnny depp & leo dicaprio are the best everrrrrrr

  • Tom Cruise an awful actor? I love the fact that people will say something, even when they have no knowledge on the subject whatsoever. Exactly how is Tom Cruise a bad actor? Look I don't necessarily like the guy, but to say he's an awful actor is an obvious ignorant statement.

  • I love that people like you will act pretentious and hurl insults all passively to garnish thumbs up by strangers.

    I've watched a multitude of films, many that starred Cruise and my verdict is that he is not a good actor, just good looking.

  • ok since u have watched alotta movies including movies like born on the 4th of july , collateral , magnolia , interview with the vampire , jerry maguire , a few gd men , rain man , risky business , the last samurai , valkyrie etc.... & u think he s a bad actor ! okay then ... LMAO

  • Are you now arguing against yourself? Weirdo.

  • bla bla bla go kill urself HATER lol , i aint gonna talk to creeps like u , jeolousy & insecurity r a bitch eh !

  • I don't need to hide behind bad spelling and grammar like you do nor do I tell people to go kill themselves... again... like you do.

    You're afraid of knowledge, logic and reasoning somehow corrupting your otherwise perfect utopia of ignorance and stupidity. Carry on asstard.

  • Yeah, if this is in reply to kalamantas3, I'm gonna have to start taking your side, because that motherfucker is retarded. LOL! : )

  • Sooo retarded right? I know I'm an asshole and again I apologize but that rag of douche kalamantas3 is a fucktard. : )

  • Arguing against himself? What?

  • To be honest... Magnolia was dogshit! LMAO!!!

  • I don't give a shit about thumbs up or down. And who the fuck are you? "I've watched a multitude of films, many that starred Cruise and my verdict is that he is not a good actor..." What the fuck do you know about acting? I'll give you this though... I do enjoy hurling insults passively while acting pretentious. : )

  • We have no beef then, really I'm sorry for my comment. : )

  • He's definitely not a bad actor. But doesn't it seem as though he plays the same character in like every single movie?

  • There are several actors like that. That doesn't mean they are a "bad" actor. It just means they're not very versatile. They just perform certain roles better than other actors/actresses.

  • Some people would consider versitality a part of being a good actor.

  • tom cruise , will smith , brad pitt , johnny depp & leo dicaprio r the best everrrrr

  • I personally think that Alec Baldwin's a smug, misogynistic asshole who also happens to be a poor excuse for a father, but hey--to each his/her own.

  • tom cruise & will smith r da best PERIOD

  • I don't know about this one Cenk. I think your #1 and #2 might make my top 20.

  • #1-Johnny Depp

    #2-Morgan Freeman

    #3-Tom Cruise

    Conversation over

  • Conversation over? I think not. Tom Cruise is an awful actor. His pompous look and crooked teeth alignment is what made him, period.

  • ya right ! lol , well mayb u should ask stanley kubrick , francis ford coppolla , martin scorsese , steven spielberg , oliver stone etc.. why do they cast him in their movies coz probably u know better than them ! LMAO WAT A HATER

  • Why do you type like you're retarded if you know so much about films? Is it to hide behind the points you're making or what?

    Tom Cruise is a name brand these days aka a money maker. The directors you mentioned recognize that and utilized it.

  • no actually 3 of those 5 directors worked with him in the 80s when he still wasnt that famous yet , besides is being name brand & money maker a bad thing !! lmao , i think its the money paid by every single person around the world to c his movies in cinemas which made him the biggest movie star in the world ! DUH !

  • WAT A HATER ROFL !! dont kill urself

  • Johnny Depp is to acting as Emo is to Philosophy.

    Pretty, pretty, grin, twitch, look off to one side isn't acting.

  • Johnny Depp did other movies apart from Pirates you know...

  • Okay, Cenk is off the farm here. Baldwin's an interesting guy and has a lot of fun on the set, but even he doesn't think he's a world class actor.

  • Alec Baldwin's best role, hands down, no contest, no argument, no close 2nd, was the father from Outside Providence.

    "So, son, you puttin' the wood to this little girl?"

    "Pop. what?"

    "Just remember: Sex is like Chinese dinner. It ain't over till you both get your cookies.... so.... remember I said that..."

  • Cenk I think you have a bad taste , I hate his gut....
