you said will smith is the only marketable african american worldwide, you were wrong, my point wasn't who was more marketable dumb $$%*, it was that will smith isn't the only marketable african american actor worldwide, thats really techinical huh...
yes it is. every actor that acts generally will draw millions, and in that sense they are marketable. common sense no? when i said what i said,i gave everyone the benefit of the doubt in understanding the most actors marketable. maybe if i thought that's what your argument was, then Iwouldn't be arguing with you. but i really think you just switched up your whole stance on denzel being more marketable than will after i showed you thenumbers. r maybe i'm wrong about that. but as the numbers stand: will smith makes a lot more money than denzel does (check out the internationalnumbers). will more than doubles denzel's profits on the international level. who do you think the film industry is going to ask to star in their movies?
Black actors aren't the only ones not seeing Will Smith. NO ONE is seeing Will smith. Dude is probably the biggest hit actor ever.
very true. he's up there with cruise and hanks. but i wouldn't be surprised to see him reach #1 when his career is over.

i'm a Film & Media major. i had to research his film numbers and his many many guest appearances to a global audience. that's how i know.Originally Posted by Enlightened Thought
^^oh god, shut up. way to get technical after i gave you the damn numbers. no crap there are marketable african american actors, but NO ONE is close to will smith. all movie actors make millions, but is any black actor touching will smith? hell no. the industry is gonna bank on smith over denzel, freeman, cheadle, howard.
I don't know how he knows that europe and asia love Will, but Will has made twice as much worldwide gross as Denzel and has acted in way fewer films
Well if he keeps it up (barring any career ending scandal), then yes.Originally Posted by LimitedRetroOG

You sure you're using the right choice of words???
Denzel's a great actor and definitely better than Will Smith but I'm getting so tired of people saying he's one of the greatest ever. Denzel is severely one-dimensional.Originally Posted by LimitedRetroOG
Will is a great actor, I'll give him that, but he's not touching Denzel. We've seen Denzel be a villain, gangster, good guy, ANY character and we will actually sync with the character Denzel is playing. This is not always the case with Will.

I mean really, Denzel is a great actor AND multi-dimensional. This isn't opinion either.Originally Posted by ShoeHefner5

I know you're entitled to your own opinion but come on man.
You forgot Glory, Inside Man, Remember the Titans, and Antwone Fisher. Tell me these movies aren't all completely different form one another,and his roles aren't completely different.Originally Posted by D723
OK OK OK now I know NT goes up in flames when someone attacks their saviors (Mike Jordan, Barack Obama, Denzel Washington, Jay-Z, etc.. etc...) but let's take a look at what are considered to be Denzel's greatest films:
Training Day
Man On Fire
John Q
Deja Vu
American Gangster
Hurricane
He Got Game
Malcolm X
these are just off the top of my head mind you. In which of these didn't he play a guy who didn't have a temper?

I've seen em all and I'm surprised I forgot to put Remember the Titans in there.. His roles may be different, but his personality isalways the same. Not to say Denzel isn't PHENOMENAL at what he does with his roles, but he's not one of the greatest working actors out right now.Originally Posted by 18key
