Someone mentioned Con Air but not The Rock.
It needs to be on the list.

Of a slightly older ilk but still, absolute classics from my childhood...

A Fistful of Dollars
For a Few Dollars More
The Good, The Bad and the Ugly
Shane
Once Upon a Time in the West
The Wild Bunch
Death Hunt
The Magnificent Seven

As a kid, if any of these hit the schedule (especially Death Hunt - a family favourite 8-)), then everything stopped to watch them. :)

Oh, and if you haven’t seen Dr Strangelove you’re really missing out.

Mr. Robot?
Ah. Never seen it. I had a look the other night actually and it really doesn't look like he's done a huge amount since the 90s. Odd, as he seemed to be a fairly big deal at one stage.

Looking at Imdb he's never stopped! Mainly TV roles which were probably never aired here.

Yeah, I had a quick scan on the old Wiki and he's been keeping himself occupied.

he was also in Archer. As a character named 'Slater'. Imaginative!
