Opinions on the films themselves may differ, but both Charles Bronson and Chuck Norris starred in some very profitable movies during the 80's.. their 80's output was very succesful on video for years to come, and on the long term were some of the biggest money-makers for (mostly) The Cannon Group.

So many to choose from. I think I would pick Arnold Schwartzeneger in a close race with
Tom Cruise (add to the movie list earlier LOSIN IT & Endless Love which I think was his 1st movie. IMO Arnold had more movies I liked but Cruise was absolutely HUGE I think most would agree.
Eddie Murphy SNL Delirious Raw Coming to America Trading Places Beverly hills cop Bev hils cop 2 48 HRS Another 48 hours Golden Child
I must CHEVY CHASE, maybe not the best but definitely worth mentioning. Modern Problems Under the Rainbow Seems Like Old Times Caddyshack Vaction Euro Vacation Xmas Vacation Funny Farm Deal of the Century Fletch Fletch Lives Thats all I could think of off the top of my head I am sure I left some good flicks out.
