Denzel Washington, clocking in at 40.

My DVD Spot Statistics are kinda skewed though, simply because I have so many Simpsons, Family Guy, Futurama, etc. and TV Shows, that a lot of the same voice actors appear over and over again.

Denzel Washington for me, too. It surprised me when I first noticed it, but the surprise wore off quickly; he's great.

This is just a guess but I'll say Desmond Llewelyn since I have all the James Bond movies and he was in 17 of them.

DVDspot shows Desmond Llewelyn (17) because of the bond films followed closely by Lois Maxwell (Bond again 13).

The first non-bond actor/actress is Orlando Bloom (11) which is kind of surprising but I guess with LOTR and POTC and the fact that I own duplicates with both standard and BR of POTC it very quickly adds up. Here are my top 20:

Desmond Llewelyn (17)
Lois Maxwell (14)
Orlando Bloom (11)
Bernard Lee (11)
Robin Williams (11)
George Clooney (10)
Hugo Weaving (10)
Jennifer Garner (9)
Samuel L. Jackson (9)
Bill Murray (9)
Brad Pitt (9)
Steve Buscemi (8)
Sean Connery (8)
John Corbett (8)
Morgan Freeman (8)
Keira Knightley (8)
John Ratzenberger (8)
Geoffrey Rush (8)
Jack Angel (7)
Alec Baldwin (7)

Here are my tops according to DVDSpot:

Johnny Depp (27)
Willem Dafoe (24)
Steve Buscemi (21)
Robert De Niro (21)
Ren Osugi (20)
Vincent Price (20)
Jack Black (19)
Susumu Terajima (19)
Tadanobu Asano (18)
Renji Ishibashi (18)
Stephen Chow (17)
Will Ferrell (17)
Isaac Hayes (17)
Trey Parker (17)
Matt Stone (17)
Nicolas Cage (16)
Samuel L. Jackson (16)
Ben Stiller (16)
Anthony Wong Chau-Sang (16)
Bruce Campbell (15)

No women on the list, which surprises me, it certainly isn't intentional. Susumu Terajima, Ren Osugi, Tadanobu Asano, and Renji Ishibashi are all in the top ten because I have A LOT of Miike DVDs, something like 45, all of his films that are available in R1 and a few that aren't. I'm a little bummed out that Vincent Price is slipping down the list, but that is mainly because I have a hard time putting down cash for some of the atrocities out there in the public domain like The Bat, and House on Haunted Hill

Surprisingly: Orlando Bloom (15) I don't even like him all that much, but I guess between all the versions of LOTR and POTC he ranks up pretty quick (plus I have Kingdom of Heaven and Troy on both SD and Blu)

Samuel L. Jackson is tied with Bloom for 15 movies as well.

From there it drops:
Tom Cruise
Matt Damon
Brendan Gleeson (WTF!)
Peter Jackson
Joe Pantoliano (!)
Bruce Willis
with 10 each.

Cate Blanchett is my top female actor coming in with 8.

The biggies in my collection are:-

John Wayne - 70 (lots of his early public domain stuff.)
Peter Cushing - 42 (the best actor of them all.)
Christopher Lee - 42 (not the same titles for the most part, just a coincidence.)
Vincent Price - 42 (also a coincidence.)
Boris Karloff - 42 (this is getting silly.)
Bela Lugosi - 37

Ward Bond of course -- he was in every movie made prior to 1960.

Elisha Cook, Jr. is a close second, having been in every film noir ever made.

I'm halfway through adding my collection to DvdSpot. I did A-M.
Doug Bradley, Jamie Lee Curtis, Kane Hodder, and Donald Pleasance are tied with 8. I suspect this will change with about 500 more titles to add.

Bela Lugosi (10)
Peter Cushing (7)
Vincent Price (7)
Takashi Shimura (7)

Figures. All but one of them are Mrs Danger's horror actors.

I guess Harrison Ford and Clint Eastwood are two of the biggies. Also many Christopher Walken movies.
