How could someone claiming to love movies not know of Cary Grant? His prime was long before I was born, but he's 1 of my all-time favourite actors....and I'm Canadian.
Never heard of Cary Grant - how sad.. regardless of origin 'Archibald Leach' was one of the most famous actors who ever lived. 🍁It's not about being American.. it's about being young and it's sad (pathetic) that all he knows are Harry Potter films. I'm not sure what has happened to people because like you, I know films/actors from 40 years before my time.. this doesn't seem to be the case anymore. I don't know your age but I wonder if it's because, as children, I/we saw old films on TV when there were fewer options and with internet kids aren't exposed to classics unless they choose to seek them out - which they don't.
Give him a break, he is young, and 'Laurence of Arabia' was released in 1962, that's 7 years before I was born! Tyler clearly hasn't a long range of films that he watches, but so what, not everyone is a film buff.
You do know film still exists beyond your birth, one of my favourite films is from 1936. Many great films were post WWII and believe it or not new is not automatically better. These days it's barely adequate.
Tyler is American, so consciousness to him is not the same as it is to a European. The null signal going through his mind is considered normal and healthy in the US.
@@clairelofty3015 He says, hes a movie buff. Sorry, thats far too big of a break to give a selfproclaimed movie buff! Especially since that is but 1 of so many facepalms, Ive gone through over Tyler knowing basically nothing.
"I'm really into movies" "I've never heard of Cary Grant" "Alan Rickman must have a great deal more to his career than I know about" You don't say...... All of these are very well known in America- and in many cases are best known in the UK for their US work.
You can TELL Tyler Dose’nt see many movies I’ve seen most of these and Lot’s of movies that these Actors have been in Tyler Does ‘ t get out much Agree??
Tyler: "I love movies", but have never heard of Cary Grant. What next? "I love England", but doesn't know it's on an island? "I love music", but never heard of Mozart? "I love fine art", but didn't know van Gough was Dutch? 😅
I do understand what you are saying but he is a young bloke and just doesn't understand. I grew up watching 'Gone with the wind'. I understand that someone 10 years younger didn't. It is relevant to him. Gary Oldman.. I just loved him in Leon, same as Natalie Portman but young people don't. Do I agree, no, but I don't have to dish a younger person for thinking differently. We will be class as oldies soon enough.
You can love something and just enjoy it without being very knowledgeable about it. I have loved the few Operas I have seen, but hardly know anything about Opera.
@@sortehuse You can love something / someone and know, or not know about that which you love. Both / either is applicable.

I just would hope that people like to learn as it's a part of life. I love to learn, if I can remember what I have learned, all the better...but I do forget, and so does Tyler...we are not all genius souls!
I've never understood people whose lame excuse for not knowing something is because "it's before my time". I wasn't around in 1066 but I still bloody well know what happened. Likewise, I wasn't born when Charlie Chaplin made films but I'm well aware of him and his work. "Before my time" just doesn't cut it as an excuse.
Truly - I've met villagers in Papua New Guinea who know who Cary Grant was! (And Errol Flynn. Because he lived there and worked a copper mill just outside Port Moresby. Moresby's main pub's outdoor verandah was re-named The Snake Pit because of Flynn coming into Town every weekend and going "Troppo".)
Sadly I was. As someone else said his references in relation to films are Marvel, Batman and Harry Potter. How can you not of heard of Cary Grant and Laurence Olivier.
Wow. All his reference points are marvel movies, batman or (at best) harry potter... A true film savage. Cinema is an art form, no less than books and the only things he has seen are the equivalent of Dan Brown books. I feel like we should put together a watch list for him to help with his education.
It's embarrassing that you didn't know Cary Grant. Alec Guinness should not have been an honourable mention. He was a premier actor for example - he played a young middle class man in Great Expectations and then straight after an old evil Jewish criminal in Oliver Twist. His career took in every kind of role; he was a real actor in other words he became a different personality for each role. His least taxing role was in Star Wars - he must have needed the money. :)This list didn't even feature John Mills another premier actor half these guys are recent - this list seems based on the compiler's own life memory rather than actors who really made an impact.
My Great Grandma’s cousins were called Lorna and Toots Pounds and they were in several of Charlie Chaplins films. Lorna and Toots were originally from Australia, but moved to England when they were little. They were famous world wide for acting, singing and being impressionists.
I am a French woman and I own 51 DVDs starring Cary Grant. Don’t hesitate any longer, just dive into black and white period, you’ll discover real gems !
How can anyone make a list of best British actors of all time and not even mention Peter Sellers. Could easily take a couple of those actors off the top ten list and replace them with any of the following: Charles Laughton, Richard Burton, Boris Karloff, Claude Rains, Sean Connery, James Mason, Stan Laurel, George Sanders, Herbert Lom (Czech-British), Basil Rathbone, Robert Newton, Rex Harrison, Jack Hawkins, John Mills, John Hurt, Alistair Sim, Peter Cushing, David Niven or several others. Not saying he's not good but I also wouldn't put Daniel Day Lewis at no.1
They may have been taken objective measures like number of oscars or nominations combined with film earnings (inflation adjusted) rather than a subjective view. Dunno though as they dont explain where the list comes from.
Think Tyler must be a genius method actor, he really can't be that much of a moron. He's watching a list of best British actors and then goes he's British? every time. Claims to be a movie fan but then goes on to show how terrible his movie taste is by only getting excited by people who he recognised from Harry Potter.
Oh come one! Cary Grant is ultra famous! How can you not know who Cary Grant is? He was before most of everyone's time... we still watched him on TV in reruns of movies.
Now im one of the last GenX (born july 1980) and both music, books and movies iv also look to the past, but my younger brother was for time "if it not made today, I dont care". which is kinda funny as today he is a sad hipster looking for obscure old jazz records (wher I got cheap music when records where uncool) But yes its weird that some dont wanne try movies or music older than them
I've watched a few of Tyler's videos and often there's a reference he doesn't understand but he is able to work it out from the context. He's smart but has surprising gaps in his knowledge lol. My jaw dropped when he'd never heard of Cary Grant.
@@jimus55 But he doesn't fill those gaps by listening to the information in videos he reacts to or by reading the repeated (multiple) information provided in the comments because he doesn't read them - despite asking people to comment (so basically just looking to improve his stats for YT). He has been doing this for years and has only just recently cottoned on how to pronounce the river Thames, and still hasn't worked out kettles and puddings.
Lawrence of Arabia is a film you just have to watch. The technical skill of filming it is something worth researching in its own right, and the scope of filming places like Wadi Rum filled with nomadic tribesmen is breathtaking, but the main thing for me is that the way the film portrays the character of the Arabian people is so empathetic: You start off seeing them as bloodthirsty, cruel, heartless people, but end up understanding where they're coming from and why they acted in that way, and Lawrence is so deeply affected by the mayhem around him that his actions shock even them: "No prisoners!" And Peter O'Toole does a fantastic job of portraying an Englishman who gets under their skin so easily, and you follow him naturally. I was at University with someone like Lawrence, and I worked on a few occasions with Arabic colleagues who wouldn't have seemed out of place in that film. It is so realistic - painfully so - and very, very true to the story. Not to be missed.
The man that said it was okay to give women a slap now and then to keep them in place, and he still defended what he said until the day he died. No thank you, his knighthood should be posthumously revoked.
@@clairelofty3015 Hahahaha utter bullshite! That interview was edited to make him look bad, he was referring to his ex wife who was a violent drunk who came at him with a knife while he was holding their infant son, and was talking about women who deliberately goaded men to hit them, so that they could get a better divorce payout and ruin their reputation! Also he DID quote in the Times, that there is NEVER an excuse to abuse women, funny how you mentioned him yet not the well documented paedophile Charlie Chaplin.
Not trying to be a dick here but non-Britons can be knighted too, although I get that you have suggested in the case of Britons it is a clue and never said that it was exclusive.
You claim to like watching films but I get the impression that your level of entertainment is The Return of the Killer Tomatoes! Thank goodness you do, at least, know of Day-Lewis.
This guy is not a movie fan. He is not aware actors are famous for their Stage performances on Broadway. He has never heard of Cary Grant, has never watched "Die Hard" or silent movies. He has never watched Lawrence of Arabia. He has never seen Wuthering Heights, The Boys from Brazil, the original Italian Job or Get Carter. Tyler is most definitely not a movie buff.
Tyler didnt you watch old movies when you were a child. I am 72 and watched Cowboy films when i was a child and know the names of many American old actors. Alan Rickman played in Die Hard with Bruce Willis and much more. You should have known Die Hard. Come on Tyler !
the younger generation dont watch tv the same way. they dont watch some old film because nothing else is on. now its all netflix and other apps where you watch what you want when you want. Sadly this leads to having to know a film to search and watch it, so many just miss out on anything that is old.
Is this guy for real ??? How can you have never heard of one of the most famous British film actors of all time...Cary Grant !!! His unique mod Atlantic accent...imitated so many times. Famously by Tony Curtis in Some Like it Hot !!!!
Clearly not a real film buff, you won't see these actors in many popcorn movies. Never heard of Peter o Toole, Cary Grant, Charlie Chaplin astonishing....
I know I'm a Brit - but I was truly APPALLED by your lack of knowledge about these amazing, so-incredibly-famous-that-how-could-you-POSSIBLY-have-never-heard-of-ANY-of-these actors? Are you SURE you're just a typical, average American, Tyler?
Gary Oldman playing thee role of Winston Churchill in the film 'Darkest Hour' was outstanding. He played the most intense, amazing Dracula I've ever seen in 'Bram Stoker's Dracula' and normally I'm not into horror movies, but what Oldman brought to that role was so much more than thee usual portrayal of the evil Count. You referenced his portrayal of Commissioner Gordon in the Batman movies, add to that the Russian villain in Airforce One and his recent excellent leading role in the Apple TV series 'Slow Horses'
@magik410 Or he's extracting the Michael (or taking the piss?). NOBODY has not heard of Cary Grant, Laurence Olivier, Charlie Chaplin . . . where do I stop. Tyler cannot be this limited. I often suspect that he's enjoying stirring the "Stupid Yank" stereotype pot.
Plenty of folk haven't heard of Cary Grant.. Even in the UK. I just asked our apprentices at work.. One ( who had thought he had heard of him) thought he was an old singer. @@aidencox790
Gary Oldman is the biggest chameleon in the history of acting. Even knowing this there are still films I have recently watched like True Romance and Darkest Hour (Churchill) where I still had no idea he was doing it. Also the voice of Resnov in Call of Duty World at War which is probably one of the best characters in any media I’ve ever seen
@@nolaj114 yeah they rarely call them that though, especially if you don't know about the title. We always say "Wasn't Anthony Hopkins in..." Nobody but nobody has ever talked about Sir Anthony Hopkins to me.
Hollywood won’t let non-Americans use their own speech, they have to learn the American accent to get work. The same for Aussies working in the US. However Americans working overseas can never learn another way of speaking, so the reverse is rare.
How do you not know Cary Grant? He was one of Hollywood's greatest stars from the thirties to the sixties! You must immediately go away and watch "Bringing Up Baby". And then "North by Northwest". And then "Charade". And then "To Catch a Thief". And so on and so on.
It would be nice if you reacted to comments from your viewers. You ARE where you were BORN !! Born in England = English. Born in America = American ( not "African" or " Asian" American....JUST American) ! Born in Scotland = SCOTTISH not ENGLISH !! NEVER heard of CARY GRANT !!!??? What rock do you live under !? Liam Neeson is IRISH !! Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter ! I that all Americans know about Britain !!??
Hey don't be hard on Tyler he went through the American education system, where it is very unamerican to teach any real history, politics, science, or truth, let alone question thought or beliefs, politics, or history. Poor Tyler grew up in the US education sausage machine designed to feed young impressionable minds with Sugar and Cinnamon coated propaganda, sprinkling in 1% truth and 99% BS. Like a Willy Wonka chocolate factory its a facade and fantasy where the American mind is being fed sprinkles from behind the curtain by cartoon characters.
I just loved Daniel Day Lewis in the 1992 film, The Last of the Mohicans. Awesome movie, actors, settings, soundtrack. Set in 1757 when pre-Canada and pre-U.S.A. were still battling it out.
Peter O'Tooles performance in the Lion in Winter is an acting master class. Katherine hepburn won an Oscar for the same film but Peter should have got one too. Where the hell was Richard Burton another great Welsh actor or Kenneth Brannagh.
Gary Oldman is a legend! He was also in an episode of Friends, playing a spitting actor with Joey. He was in Bram Stokers Dracula, Harry Potter, Hannibal, The Fifth Element, Air Force One, Leon, The Firm. Peter O'Toole was in Supergirl (1984), Murphys War. Lawrence Olivier was in Clash of the titans (1981) Michael Caine was in Jaws the revenge, Italian job, Austin Powers Goldmember, The Muppet Christmas Carol as Scrooge (my fav christmas film) Liam Neeson was born in Northern Ireland...brilliant actor. Ewan Mcgregor is Scottish
Rene Zellwegger's English accent in the Bridget Jones films was very good but Americans do struggle to get the accent spot on. The worst example is famously Dick Van Dyke's Cockney accent (London) in Mary Poppins.
Alan Rickman was superb as the Metatron in 'Dogma' with Ben Affleck and Matt Damon. "Say you're the Metatron and everybody looks at you blankly, but mention somebody from a Charlton Heston movie and suddenly everyone's a theology scholar." I notice that Sir Sean Connery and Sir Patrick Stewart were conspicuous by their absence.
He disappears into the role so I don't even know its Gary Oldman - isn't that the very definition of an actor? So many of the actors we see today play themselves as the character rather than portraying the character itself. No names but some actors simply aren't actors, as such, merely themselves in nearly every "role" they "play".
Other actors who weren't mentioned: More of less the entire cast of Harry Potter (obviously), Daniel Craig, Sean Connery, Timothy Dalton, David Tennant, Hayley Atwell, Judi Dench, Maggie Smith, Hugh Laurie (Dr. House), Emilia Clarke, Lena Headey, Alexander Siddig (Dr Bashir from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine), Idris Elba, and plenty more.
I cannot believe anyone in the Western world does not know Cary Grant. 😮 (and I am not British or American)
After hearing that I've had enough! The man's a bonehead.
You've got to excuse Tyler, he's a dumb American . 😂

Tyler didnt you watch old movies when you were a child. I am 72 and watched Cowboy films when i was a child and know the names of many American old actors. Alan Rickman played in Die Hard with Bruce Willis and much more. You should have known Die Hard. Come on Tyler !
the younger generation dont watch tv the same way. they dont watch some old film because nothing else is on. now its all netflix and other apps where you watch what you want when you want. Sadly this leads to having to know a film to search and watch it, so many just miss out on anything that is old.
@@ronuss that is so sad !
For the modern generation, Harry Potter is "Ye Olde Tyme Moving Picture Showe".
Has someone told Tyler that Liam Neeson is Northern Irish?
Is this guy for real ??? How can you have never heard of one of the most famous British film actors of all time...Cary Grant !!! His unique mod Atlantic accent...imitated so many times. Famously by Tony Curtis in Some Like it Hot !!!!
This guy must have lived in a cupboard growing up
But not under the stairs.
And not even the cubboard under the stairs!
@andrewobrien6671 he grew up in a cold, damp basement and once a day he was thrown a brown bag with a stale peanut butter sandwich.
"Charade" : Logically, if he's never heard of Cary Grant, then he has also never heard of Audrey Hepburn. That takes some doing...
Cary Grant was huge in movies.
About the only award Rickman didn't win for acting was an Oscar.
How did Watch Mojo not mention Sean Connery as James Bond, and Patrick Stewart as Captain Picard & Professor X 🤦🏾♂️
Clearly not a real film buff, you won't see these actors in many popcorn movies. Never heard of Peter o Toole, Cary Grant, Charlie Chaplin astonishing....
You have to remember it not about him learning something, its so he can
Say like all the talk Loud and do the silly laugh.
Mr Caine. He said,'You was only supposed to blow the bloody doors off"

I know I'm a Brit - but I was truly APPALLED by your lack of knowledge about these amazing, so-incredibly-famous-that-how-could-you-POSSIBLY-have-never-heard-of-ANY-of-these actors? Are you SURE you're just a typical, average American, Tyler?
I've asked that question before. He appears to be rather ignorant of anything outside of America.
Am a South African, and agree with you.
It seems like he’s ignorant of much of American things as well.
Gary Oldman playing thee role of Winston Churchill in the film 'Darkest Hour' was outstanding. He played the most intense, amazing Dracula I've ever seen in 'Bram Stoker's Dracula' and normally I'm not into horror movies, but what Oldman brought to that role was so much more than thee usual portrayal of the evil Count. You referenced his portrayal of Commissioner Gordon in the Batman movies, add to that the Russian villain in Airforce One and his recent excellent leading role in the Apple TV series 'Slow Horses'
He also played siruis black in harry potter
Dick Van Dyke is a prime example of an American who can't do the British accent. Take his role in Mary Poppins for example.
Wow, Dick van Dyke is American? Really?! 😂
Given that "actresses" are now referred to as actors I am surprised that there are no women actors on this list.
This guy doesn't know a thing. Like painfully so, he tries to speak for Americans but I think he knows alot less than the average yank.
@magik410 Or he's extracting the Michael (or taking the piss?). NOBODY has not heard of Cary Grant, Laurence Olivier, Charlie Chaplin . . . where do I stop. Tyler cannot be this limited. I often suspect that he's enjoying stirring the "Stupid Yank" stereotype pot.
Plenty of folk haven't heard of Cary Grant.. Even in the UK. I just asked our apprentices at work.. One ( who had thought he had heard of him) thought he was an old singer. @@aidencox790
@@aidencox790 Tyler seems likeable enough but he is definitely not joking here.
Cary Grant known worldwide. Golden Age of Cinema.
Oh Tyler. Oh dear. Oh dear. Oh dear. I'm flabbergasted.
Gary Oldman is the biggest chameleon in the history of acting. Even knowing this there are still films I have recently watched like True Romance and Darkest Hour (Churchill) where I still had no idea he was doing it. Also the voice of Resnov in Call of Duty World at War which is probably one of the best characters in any media I’ve ever seen
Cary Grant was born in Bristol in the west of England and went to the same school as my mum, just a few years earlier……….😊
And he went out with my friend's mum!
Born Archibald Leach...
Bristol accent traveled with the Pilgrim Fathers to America, and influenced the development of the American accent...
SIR Anthony Hopkins. SIR Daniel Day-Lewis. The "Sir" didn't tip you off?
@@nolaj114 yeah they rarely call them that though, especially if you don't know about the title. We always say "Wasn't Anthony Hopkins in..." Nobody but nobody has ever talked about Sir Anthony Hopkins to me.
You do not have to be British to be knighted though.
Hollywood won’t let non-Americans use their own speech, they have to learn the American accent to get work. The same for Aussies working in the US. However Americans working overseas can never learn another way of speaking, so the reverse is rare.
re Michael Caine, "Alfie", "Get Carter", The man who would be king, The Italian Job, not ringing any bells? where have you people been!??!!?
Robin Hood: Prince of Thieve is my favourite Alan rickman film
I loved him in Sense and Sensibility.😊
Bob Hope was born in London ... as was Jerry Springer!
There is the Bob Hope theatre is in Eltham, in south east London.
How do you not know Cary Grant? He was one of Hollywood's greatest stars from the thirties to the sixties! You must immediately go away and watch "Bringing Up Baby". And then "North by Northwest". And then "Charade". And then "To Catch a Thief". And so on and so on.
I cannot you have never heard of Cary Grant good God
Cary Grant was one of the most famous Hollywood actors
Daniel Craig is British!!!
Everyone and their dogs knows of Cary Grant.
Michael Caine in Alfie...one of the best...
It would be nice if you reacted to comments from your viewers.
You ARE where you were BORN !! Born in England = English. Born in America = American ( not "African" or " Asian" American....JUST American) !
Born in Scotland = SCOTTISH not ENGLISH !!
NEVER heard of CARY GRANT !!!??? What rock do you live under !?
Liam Neeson is IRISH !!
Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter ! I that all Americans know about Britain !!??
Lincoln was one of the founding fathers, Lincoln was born in 1809.god help me how dumb can you be.
Hey don't be hard on Tyler he went through the American education system, where it is very unamerican to teach any real history, politics, science, or truth, let alone question thought or beliefs, politics, or history.
Poor Tyler grew up in the US education sausage machine designed to feed young impressionable minds with Sugar and Cinnamon coated propaganda, sprinkling in 1% truth and 99% BS. Like a Willy Wonka chocolate factory its a facade and fantasy where the American mind is being fed sprinkles from behind the curtain by cartoon characters.
OMG Carrie Grant made so many great movies
I’m Canadian
Cary Grant
For Charlie Chaplin, watch The great Dictator. It was his first talking role and it's an outstanding film, still works rather well.
Anthony Hopkins is Welsh actually.
he mentioned that....and Welsh is still British
“Maybe there’s people out there who know of Cary Grant” hahahahahaha
when you say American you mean kids cos most Americans know all these actors
A fan of movies ..... and yet.....????? Quite unbelievable....
I just loved Daniel Day Lewis in the 1992 film, The Last of the Mohicans. Awesome movie, actors, settings, soundtrack. Set in 1757 when pre-Canada and pre-U.S.A. were still battling it out.
Cary Grant is an all time favourite , in fact they are all great actors in their own right .
Peter O'Tooles performance in the Lion in Winter is an acting master class. Katherine hepburn won an Oscar for the same film but Peter should have got one too. Where the hell was Richard Burton another great Welsh actor or Kenneth Brannagh.
Gary Oldman is a legend! He was also in an episode of Friends, playing a spitting actor with Joey. He was in Bram Stokers Dracula, Harry Potter, Hannibal, The Fifth Element, Air Force One, Leon, The Firm.
Peter O'Toole was in Supergirl (1984), Murphys War.
Lawrence Olivier was in Clash of the titans (1981)
Michael Caine was in Jaws the revenge, Italian job, Austin Powers Goldmember, The Muppet Christmas Carol as Scrooge (my fav christmas film)
Liam Neeson was born in Northern Ireland...brilliant actor.
Ewan Mcgregor is Scottish
Rene Zellwegger's English accent in the Bridget Jones films was very good but Americans do struggle to get the accent spot on. The worst example is famously Dick Van Dyke's Cockney accent (London) in Mary Poppins.
Meryl Streep had an excellent English accent - The French lieutenant's woman"
watch Caine in Get Carter, Zulu and the Italian Job. All excellent
Mckellan is an internationally accomplished Shakesperian actor
Stop lumping yourself with most Americans because I can guarantee you that most Americans have heard of these actors.
What do you actually watch?
I would have put Sir Alec Guinness a lot higher than an 'honorable mention'!
I'm only here to see the comments about Tyler not knowing Cary Grant 🙄🙄🙄😆😆
😅😅😅
Alan Rickman was superb as the Metatron in 'Dogma' with Ben Affleck and Matt Damon.
"Say you're the Metatron and everybody looks at you blankly, but mention somebody from a Charlton Heston movie and suddenly everyone's a theology scholar."
I notice that Sir Sean Connery and Sir Patrick Stewart were conspicuous by their absence.
Wow!!!!! Never heard off cary grant. Hollywood icon..
Zulu is an amazing movie! It tells the story of the battle of Rorke's Drift near my home town in South Africa. Please watch it if you can.
I am Aussie and love that movie!
Michael Caine was in Muppets Christmas carol
A lot of these actors have done stage plays. The royal Shakespeare company has produced some of the best actors .
Tyler saw" Hamlet" listed in top 10 British movies and commented "this must be the British version". 😮
I absolutely loved Cary Grant. Still do. Funny, sooooo handsome, such charisma, and a blooming fabulous actor.
'North by North-west' - starring Cary Grant. It's a talkie and it's in colour, Tyler.
He disappears into the role so I don't even know its Gary Oldman - isn't that the very definition of an actor? So many of the actors we see today play themselves as the character rather than portraying the character itself. No names but some actors simply aren't actors, as such, merely themselves in nearly every "role" they "play".
Perhaps that’s why Hugh Grant didn’t make the cut.
Unfair, no names needed.
@@frankbudge2500 I don’t see the big deal. Sorry if I offended you somehow.
Other actors who weren't mentioned: More of less the entire cast of Harry Potter (obviously), Daniel Craig, Sean Connery, Timothy Dalton, David Tennant, Hayley Atwell, Judi Dench, Maggie Smith, Hugh Laurie (Dr. House), Emilia Clarke, Lena Headey, Alexander Siddig (Dr Bashir from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine), Idris Elba, and plenty more.
