\"Movie_Reel_22\"<\/a>Many years ago, using the weekly TV guide that came with the Sunday Chicago Tribune, I started keeping track of all of the movies I had seen over the course of my lifetime. \u00a0The guide would list the two main stars for each movie, and that is a tradition that I’ve carried on in my database ever since. \u00a0So, given those guidelines, it is time to look at all of the actors that have starred in at least 10 films that I have seen, as of May 30th.<\/p>\n

Today, we dive into the 3 actors that have starred in 19 movies that I have seen.<\/p>\n

Ben Affleck<\/strong><\/p>\n

The first Ben Affleck starring role that I saw was in 1997, when I saw both Going All The Way<\/em> and Chasing Amy<\/em>.\u00a0 In 1999, he kicked off a 6 year run where I saw 11 of his films, including 3 films in both 2000 and 2003.\u00a0 There were 5 years total where I had seen multiple Affleck outings.\u00a0 In recent years, he has been focusing more on directing, including the last film in which I saw him, 2012’s Argo<\/em> which I saw last year.\u00a0 He’s likely to move up this list in the future thanks to his casting as Batman in the upcoming Man of Steel<\/em> sequel.<\/p>\n

George Clooney<\/strong><\/p>\n

George Clooney was bouncing around Hollywood for a while before becoming a superstar on a little show called ER<\/em>, whose pilot movie was\u00a0his first entry on this list.\u00a0 That launched him to great film success.\u00a0 2 films is my high water mark for Clooney, one which I have reached 5 different times, most recently in 2012.\u00a0 Like Affleck in the future, Clooney also had the opportunity to wear the cowl and cape in 1997’s Batman & Robin<\/em>, which killed off that franchise and set the stage for Christopher Nolan’s Bat franchise.\u00a0 My most recent Clooney experience,\u00a0which will actually bump him up to the next tier, was Gravity<\/em>, which I saw earlier this year after the cutoff for this list.<\/p>\n

Eddie Murphy<\/strong><\/p>\n

It’s hard to believe now, but at one time, Eddie Murphy was the biggest star in the land.\u00a0 My first experience with him was likely Beverly Hills Cop<\/em>.\u00a0 7 of his films were seen before I started keeping track, so I’m not sure of when I first saw them.\u00a0 Of the 7 years since that I have seen an Eddie Murphy film, 5 of them have been multiples.\u00a0 It’s been over a decade since I’ve seen one of his starring perfromances, as I suffered through both Showtime<\/em> and Adventures Of Pluto Nash<\/em> in 2004.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
