I am sure some of you have seen this.
It's interesting to see how dominant British actors have become in Hollywood or in the US in general......Game of thrones for example.
Do we make better actors or something?

I would hardly call British actors "dominant" in Hollywood. They are prevalent, sure. But even in your example -- the only actor from [i]Game of Thrones[/i] to even be nominated for a Golden Globe or Emmy (and he won both) was one of the few American actors on the show (Peter Dinklage). The Forbes list of Hollywood's highest paid actors includes [url=http://www.forbes.com/sites/dorothypomerantz/2013/07/16/robert-downey-jr-tops-forbes-list-of-hollywoods-highest-paid-actors/]zero Brits[/url], and their list of most [url=http://www.forbes.com/celebrities/#page:1_sort:0_direction:asc_search:_filter:All%20categories]powerful celebrities[/url] has no British actors or actresses in the top 50. AMC's list of the [url=http://movies.amctv.com/movie-guide/the-50-greatest-actors-of-all-time/]greatest actors of all time[/url] has no Brits in the top 10, and only 2 actresses on their list of the [url=http://movies.amctv.com/movie-guide/the-50-greatest-actresses-of-all-time/]greatest actresses of all time[/url] are British. There is no doubt that there are tons of great British actors in Hollywood, and some of them are among the greatest actors ever. There are a bunch of British actors/actresses that I personally count among my favorites. But I would tend to disagree that they are somehow "dominating" Hollywood; that simply doesn't seem true by any measure except a Super Bowl commercial.
