Holy crap! Pollard was in Dobie Gillis! I didn't realize he was that old.

What makes him not a "that guy"?

I don't think Sam Elliot is that guy.

I'd have to agree on this one. He's got a few leading roles and a number of supporting roles. I think in order to be a "that guy" they have to have only or almost only tertiary roles.

If you think somebody shouldn't be on the list, it's because you happen to know their name. But they are not big enough so most people know their name, which is why they're there.

Pollard isn't "that guy" because (wait for it) he hasn't been in *enough* stuff over all these years to be anything but unique.

After looking at his list of movies, I realize I know him from Bonny and Clyde.
