In a tightly contested final the winner of the FOG Academy Greatest Actor Ever on a 9-8 scoreline is 
ALAN RICKMAN

Tom Hanks had a great run but just didnt get it over the line on final polling day.

Stats wise here's the breakdown on your voting booth activities. Of the 129 possible voting sessions:
 
@Rachel Stevens on a Pogo Stick attended an amazing 127, 
@quickbeam an almost equally impressive 125, 
@Zaph just behind on 120, with @Sawduck on 119, 
@Necro & @nothing also made the 100+ club with 106 & 104, 

@cee_jay 97, @ShaneU 95, @Kol 89, @jp liz v1 74, @Trigger 67, @Neowise 65, @Mam of 4 61, @ari101 52, @davetherave 40, @Edser 39, @Irish Aris 33, @Declan A Walsh 28, @DejaBoo 23 and both @Spears & @Diamonds of Frost voted just twice each.

Nice of Matt Damon to turn up for the reveal consider he wasnt included at all. Ooops! 
==============================================
Here are some of the picks from you all that might have been handed the title outright had there been no voting at all or if you just had to nominate one each. (Tom Hanks got 2 votes here also). 
[Image: 263936967_10224119582270813_778299613523...e=61B41F1D]
Robert De Niro, Paul Newman, Cary Grant, John Cusack, James Stewart, Dustin Hoffman, Steve McQueen, James Cagney and Leonardo Di Caprio. Not that you needed them named of course. 

For what it's worth Cary Grant, James Stewart and Harrison Ford are among my favourite actors. Throw in Katharine Hepburn, Sandra Bullock & Marisa Tomei for a bit of gender balance. 
=========================================

On that note I'll close this off just by saying thanks to all who voted and I appreciated the comments on the hard work involved in this but as an actor I've heard about once said ....................

I suppose it is fitting Alan won given today's advent question

I would have gone with Tom myself as more range and variety of roles but Alan was taken too soon RIP

@Wichita Lineman top tournament, well ran, bravo

Thanks for running this, brilliant job! I like the outcome, Tom Hanks is good, he is just not a favourite, so I'm personally happier with Rickman.
Was it really over two years...   Whoops sorry... Life just got in the way 🙈😅

The better actor lost, the obsession with Die Hard on this forum is insane.

Wichita Lineman, absolutely stellar job, take a break before you launch into mastermind, you deserve it! So so much work (and greatly appreciated)

I'm not sure if I was given the full 512 to choose from that I would have chosen Rickman, he would have ranked high enough with me, but I definitely wouldn't have bothered with Hanks, not a fan personally.

That was a truly epic (and fun) contest, thanks for running it Wichita.  And at least Tom Hanks didn't win. Big Grin

Rickman winning now means that not only is Die Hard the greatest Christmas Movie of all time with the greatest Christmas song of all time in it's soundtrack, but it now has the greatest actor of all time in the cast.

Meaning Die Hard is truly the greatest movie the world has ever seen. All hail Die Hard Tongue

Amazing feat @Wichita Lineman and was really fun to take part in and see it evolve

I think we had 2 very worthy finalists who are both excellent actors and I wouldn't complain if either had won..

Thanks a mill
Famous for triggering Builebeag in her own game!

Great job Wichita Lineman, fair play to you for all your hard work, wish De Niro or James Stewart won it but Rickman is a good actor too
