I second Sam Jackson.
I'll also throw in Jack Black, Vince Vaughn, Owen Wilson, and Ben Stiller as guys who never fail to make me laugh.
I'll add the two C(K)ates (Blanchett and Winslet) as woman of such a wonderful admixture of talent, beauty, and mystique.
And, finally, there's Scarlett Johansson, whose striking presence draws me into an enthralled stupor no matter what she does. I can't even say whether she's a really talented actor or if she's simply poisoned my better judgement with her everlasting aura of pulchritude.
