| It's a qualitative assessment. As long as there is an argument, you can't definitively say that anyone is wrong Posted via VolNation Mobile |

| I didn't know Billy Zane was in Back To The Future? Which scenes? Were they minor roles? |

It wasn't a speaking role but he stole every scene they featured him in. |

True, it's an ensemble cast but he is the lead of this great series. |

| Seeing Titanic 3D recently really made me appreciate Zane even more.
I wish he would make a comeback. |

| I pick Billy for the sole reason that he doesn't spend quality time gerbiling. |

| "Invincible" probably made Zane a billionaire. Classic film. |

| There is no reason you should notice him in BTTF. Unless you just know that its him and you make a conscious effort to watch him, he's nothing other than background. That being said, he is a fine actor and had some great performances in Titanic and Tombstone, as well as in a bunch of low-budget/indie films. |

| Gere, because Zane always looks as though he's wearing eyeliner
