I’m sure that many of you had very productive mornings, and did very important things. I, on the other hand, spent mine scanning hundreds of interviews online of various actors to discover what their favorite movie is? Why? Beats the hell out of me. I felt like it, OK? You have your hobbies, and I have mine. You don’t have to make a federal case of out it. GOD.

Most actors, at some point, are asked this question in an interview, so I decided to compile the answers of 20 Pajiba favorites. In some instances, more than one movie was listed, but for the sake of brevity, I included only the one named movie that I liked to associate with that actor the most. However, I did make an exception for one: Jon Hamm, because all three of his favorite movies were too fun not to mention.

Michael Fassbender — Big Lebowski

George Clooney — All the President’s Men

Seth Rogen — Big Lebowski
