Not just an actor. Lee was easily the greatest martial artist of the last hundred years. He invented his very own form of martial arts, Jeet Kun Do, when he was only 27. He could perform two-finger pushups, throw grains of rice in the air and catch them with chop sticks, and his striking speed from three feet away with his hands down was five hundredths of a second. He had well over 2,500 books in his personal library. When asked in 1972 if he believed in God, Bruce responded, "To be perfectly frank, I really do not."
This guy is the creator of Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, Firefly, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Dollhouse. Most people would say his fanbase is loyal, but I prefer to use the word "cult."
Author of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, and writer for many television shows throughout the years, including Dr. Who.
Creator of Star Trek, he viewed his imaginary universe as the perfect humanist society.
One of the 20th century's greatest writers. Author of Slaughterhouse-Five, Breakfast of Champions, and Cat's Cradle.
Co-Creator of HBO's Mr. Show and starred as Tobias Fünke on Arrested Development. Easily one of my favorite comedians.
Comedian and star of the highly underrated Extras and the British version of The Office.
Gandalf and Magneto. Here he is on Extras.
Probably my favorite living comedian.
Mythbusters.
Jack of all trades. Henry Rollins started off as a punk rocker in the 80s as the frontman for Black Flag, and since then has been a comedian, actor, social commentator, and star of his own Henry Rollins Show on IFC. He played Weston on the last season of Sons of Anarchy, and he will probably go down as the coolest bad guy that show will ever see.
