Earlier tonight Mrs. Rhosis and I rented and watched “Schindler’s List,” and agreed that Liam Neeson and Ben Kingsley were terrific–great casting.
But as tape one ended (it’s a two tape release), we took a break to grab cokes, and the usual before loading the second tape. During that time, I saw a snippet of “Walker, Texas Ranger,” and having the bizarre mind that I do, I began seeing Chuck Norris as Oskar Schindler, began imagining the “shading and nuances” he would have brought to the role (snicker).
What would Tom “The Dukes of Hazzard” Wopat have brought to the role of Itzhak Stern that Ben Kingsley was unable to deliver? Would JM J Bullock have been as effective as Ralph Fiennes as the evil Amon Goeth?
To Have and Have Not, with Richard Gere as Harry Morgan (“Steve”), Britney Spears as “Slim”, and Danny DeVito as Eddie (“Was you ever bit by a dead bee?”)
Woody Allen as Tyler Durden in Fight club
Puff P Diddy as Shaft
Arnie as Mrs. Doubtfire
Ronald Reagan as Rick in Casablanca
Pam Anderson as Clarice Starling
Michael Caine as Hannibal Lector
Mickey Rourke as Anyone in any film is also bad casting
in Monty Python and the Holy Grail, nothing would make me hate a movie more, than if Jim Carrey was 6 different characters
Jake Lloyd in The Sixth Sense would’ve destroyed that movie
This is an easy one, take Meg Ryan, and put her in any movie that needs to be taken seriously… how about Twister, not the most serious movie, take away helen Hunt, and throw in Ryan, you get a bad movie. What about Nell, again, not a horrible movie, but it turns into crap when you take away Jodie Foster and throw in some meg Ryan. She has gotta be the worst actress this planet has seen… with the exception of Drew Berrymore, of course
