I think Francis mcdormand is the greatest actress of all time with Meryl streep as second, and they are both in the top five actors ever.

another controversial opinion: while Francis mcdormand was amazing in it, nomadland was boring

I like that not only did you accidentally write Frances instead of "Helen Mirren" (although I'd have also accepted either Jessica Lange or even Judi Dench), but you didn't even spell Frances McDormand correctly.

Considering you've already outed yourself as trolling, I won't be baited by this glaringly false claim.

I would agree. I dont dislike Meryl Streep but I cant recall any roles Ive seen that make me understand the acclaim she seems to get.

Frances Mcdormand though everything Ive seen her in has been really good

You should watch more Meryl Streep movies. Before I decided Francis mcdormand was better than her she was the only person other than Tom Hanks that any movie that came out with them in it I was like best picture nominee.

He's almost too good. I think the only Tom Hanks film that I've seen that I disliked was Castaway, but I'm not sure anybody could have done a better job in it.

Matt Damon has also been consistently impressive, barring Kevin Smith films, We Bought a Zoo (although *everybody* was kinda bad in that), and The Brothers Grimm. Which basically means I'm more likely to enjoy his work than George Clooney's, which is probably a highly controversial opinion.

I agree but there are good movies that Meryl Streep's starred in as well:

Sophie's Choice
Out of Africa (which won an Oscar btw)
Kramer vs Kramer (also an Oscar winner)
Julie and Julia (where she played Julia Child)

And those are only the few that I could think of off of the top of my head. If you compare both careers, I believe Meryl, Frances and Helen Mirren would tie for best lead actress in the movies.

Don't know either. Had to look them up on IMDB.

The only movies I've ever seen with either are Madagascar 3 (kids) and Death Becomes Her (I liked this movie when it came out - haven't seen it since)

Death Becomes Her is pretty good. Doesnt take itself too seriously.

tbh, it was a kinda fun movie. I think I caught the second half once on tv then saw the full thing later, but it's also been at least 15 years since I've seen it.

Frances McDormand is my favorite actress so this is easy for me to agree with. It also helps that she tends to choose projects that pique my interest way more than the projects Meryl Streep chooses. Nomadland was fantastic. I ended up reading the book yesterday after seeing the movie.
