3. They are both good, and we need all the good actors we can get.
Jackman is the better song and dance man.

Clooney is the better producer/director.

6. I Gotta See Jackman In Better Movies
He does have that young Clint Eastwood vibe going for him, but Clooney was great in O Brother, Syriana, and Michael Clayton.

8. I've never seen Jackman on the stage.
Edited on Wed Nov-18-09 01:04 AM by MilesColtrane
Judging from movie roles though, I'd go with Clooney.

9. Clooney can't talk without bobbing his head like one of those stupid sports figurines
And who the FUCK came up with the bright idea to cast him as batman?

10. Clooney's also better in comedies....
He's hilarious when he plays the idiot like in O Brother Where Art Thou and the seriously underappreciated Intolerable Cruelty...

14. George does a great comedic lunatic
See "Burn After Reading." He also does a good military guy, as in "Three Kings" and "The Thin Red Line". "The Peacemaker", too, although that was kind of a sucky movie for reasons that had nothing to do with him. Nicole Kidman as a nuclear expert? Snork!

11. I include Jackman's stage work in voting for him.
Clooney may have been better served by the movies but I did like The Prestige and The Fountain.

13. I prefer Hugh Jackman
Not only is he infinitely more sexy, but it seems like Clooney uses the same expressions in every role. He has that "I'm so stressed that my eye is twitching" thing he does all the friggin time.
