I'm probably in the minority here, but Hackman. I think he has more range. Nicholson has a distinct personality that carries over into every role. He can play a wide range of roles, but it always seems the same in a way.

Hackman is my favorite ex-Marine who became an actor. But Jack is easily the better actor, IMO.

These polls are never going to end...

Because of you, I now dislike Miss State and their fans. Congratulations

I cannot believe it is 2 to 1 Hackman at this point. I guess I'm in the minority in this comparison.

Probably because Hackman has made MORE good/great movies than Jack.

You like too many movies, IMO. I'll narrow it down:

One Flew Over The Kuckoo's Nest
The Departed
The Shining
A Few Good Men

You're too uninformed and start too many stupid threads to be taken seriously

The French Connection
The French Connection II
Marooned
The Conversation
The Poseiden Adventure
A Bridge Too Far
Superman
Superman II
Reds
Uncommon Valor
Target
Hoosiers
No Way Out
Bat 21
Mississippi Burning
The Package
The Firm
Unforgiven
Wyatt Earp
Geronimo: An American Legend
The Chamber
Absolute Power
Enemy of the State
Crimson Tide
The Mexican
Heist
Get Shorty
Behind Enemy Lines
Ruanway Jury
The Quick and The Dead
Downhill Racer

And those aren't close to all of them. Just the ones I could think of off of the top of my head

Those are some good ones but Jack still has the better resume.

Nope. Both have won Oscars. Both have appeared in Oscar winning movies, although Hackman has appeared in more award winning movies. Hackman has made more movies too. Sorry you're wrong. You might LIKE Nicholson better, which is your perogative, but Hackman easily has the best resume
