The whole "A list", "B list" stuff drives me crazy because half the people that are supposed "A-listers" are fairly talent-free, albeit very pretty, individuals. (Maybe Jessica Alba is the next Meryl Streep but I kind of doubt it.) Alphabet-list status seems to depend more upon how often Us Magazine snaps your picture than the quality of what you do. Fichtner does it better than most. Fichtner is 20 kinds of awesome in everything he does.

Fichtner is a B-list character actor who has been in over 25 major films including Heat, Armageddon, Equilibrium, and Contact. I'm sure his agent keeps as many offers on his plate as he can handle and Mr. Fichtner makes total wad $$$. Not as big an actor as Ned Beatty, but certainly as big as M. Emmet Walsh or Richard Jenkins. Craig–It does add up to serious cash. Fichtner is a B-list character actor who has been in over 25 major films including Heat, Armageddon, Equilibrium, and Contact.

Seriously, people like Fichtner or John C. McGinley are practically omnipresent. That has to add up to some serious cash.

And that guy who voiced Ken Rosenberg in the GTA games! Okay, that's about all I recognize on his credentials. I'll eagerly look forward to his appearance as "bank manager" in the Dark Knight though.

I usually refer to him as "that one guy who isn't Bishop in Aliens", as opposed to that one guy who is. Hey its that guy!

I love how he thinks they're on a nickname basis. Reminds me of how my dad once met Thomas S Monson at a funeral a few years ago, and has called him "Tommy" ever since. He thinks they're best friends, and it's HILARIOUS. “Bill” Fichtner. I love how he thinks they’re on a nickname basis.
