Cool List

What makes someone cool?  I don't know.  I do know that sometimes an actor's cool can outweigh their talent.  Sometimes they're cool in one movie, but dorky in another one.  Sometimes they're cool because they're dorky.  It's undefined in my book, unless you use a cannon whereby to gauge all other people's cools.  Just check out the names.
