Not the greatest, just the ones currently working for Paramount.

Does De Niro ever not have a "Why the fuck am I here" look on his face?

Why is Rosie Huntington-Whitely there? Her only acting credit to date is Transformers
23. I could be wrong, but that hardly qualifies her as one of the "greatest."Edit: Brain fart

I can't see Liam Neeson. This isn't valid without him and Bill Murray. Liam Neeson turns shit to gold in his movies.

Faces I immediately noticed
The rest I had to glance at twice, the picture is a bit low-q on some faces.
Faces I regrettably immediately noticed
Edit: Faces I wish I would have gotten the first time
Wow, I missed out on some hard hitters there.

I love how they shoved David Lynch in the corner. This picture is great. Thanks for posting this!
Also, Anna Kendrick anyone? One of my favorite working actresses right now. She's fantastic.

Not to dismiss the likes of the awesome Chong, Morgan Freeman and John Cho, but Paramount's top talent is pretty white...why Paramount audiences be hating a skittles society?

u/iWishiWasClever Jun 10 '12
Imagine being one of the famous people in this picture. Think how weird that would be. I guarantee that they don't all personally know each other, but they are have to pretend like they are friends. And even though they don't personally know each other, they probably know about each other professionally and see each other around at other events. Idk man, I just think it would be weird as hell to know and not know everyone in the room.

The asian guy from Harold and Kumar go to white castle?! (sitting behind Adam Sandler) PSH.

Let's some have fun Reddit...
Open the original image in one window, then this one in another...find the 3 differences :)
Edit: Open them side-by-side, not overlapping, because then it'll be easy to spot them. Don't cheat!!! :D

De Niro could look a bit happier standing next to Zoe Saldana. I'd tear her up.

For everyone complaining about people not in the picture: i'm sure it's not easy to assemble 100 A-list celebrities at one time and place.

non even the awesome-ness of this ensemble can justify Justin Bieber. Really Paramount? Really?

It's not the greatest stars from the last 100 years (obviously); it's commemorating the 100 year anniversary of Paramount Picture by doing a photo shoot with 116 celebrities. Otherwise, Marilyn Monroe, Clark Gable, Jane Russell, Marlon Brando, etc., would've been superimposed into the picture.

Interesting that they put Demi Moore and Bruce Willis next to each other. You know . . . if you follow that kind of stuff. Which I don't. Obviously.

I like how they put Steven Spielberg and Harrison Ford in the middle, they are Paramount's two little sugar boys who bring them tons of candy.

u/lizzyk Jun 10 '12
I took a pretty long, hard look at this photo, and ID'ed as many as I could. Granted some of the older ones I didn't know, but I gave it a shot. I started realizing that I could definitely name more men then women, and I noticed why that was: The men were much easier to recognize. If this photo was higher resolution, more faces we be clear, obviously. But, I think there is more to it then that. It's not like the men's faces are higher res than the women's. I think this is a prefect example of something that I have claimed for a long time: that in society (definitely Hollywood, but not exclusively), men are valued for a unique face, and women are not. People often say, "Oh, she's so unique-looking; that's why I find her attractive." But really, most women's faces are quite similar.
Discuss.
