Quote by Red
I find I'm so excited that I can barely sit still or hold a thought in my head. I think it's the excitement only a free man can feel. A free man at a start of a long journey whose conclusion is uncertain. I hope I can make it across the border. I hope to see my friend and shake his hand. I hope the Pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams. I hope.
 
Isn't this a bit like names - everyone's names suit them and you couldn't imagine calling them anything else, but only because it's their name?
Might be better to say who wasn't suited for a role, and who would've been better?
 
I'm so glad they didn't pick Tom Cruise for that role. He is fine for stuff like mission impossible, but I just couldn't picture him as Tony Stark.

Agreed. Though they said that about him when he was cast in Interview with a Vampire and that turned out well. Guess we'll never know...

And also as Akasha has said, Eric Northman, Elijah Mikaelson and Alan Shore :thumbsup: (and Shatner as Danny Krane).

Mark Wahlberg as Bob Lee Swagger in Shooter (as opposed to Ryan Phillippe in the series).

I also agree with the sentiments on Tony Stark and Cpt. Jack Sparrow.

Stallone is John Rambo, not Rocky and Sophie Turner will always be Sansa Stark (not Jean Grey).

Bricktop - Alan Ford

"Do you know what "nemesis" means? A righteous infliction of retribution manifested by an appropriate agent. Personified in this case by an 'orrible ****... me."

"Listen, you ****ing fringe, if I throw a dog a bone, I don't want to know if it tastes good or not. You stop me again whilst I'm walking, and I'll cut your ****ing Jacobs off."

"Well, where'd you lose him? He ain't a set of ****ing car keys, is he? And it ain't as if he's incon-****ing-spicuous now, is it?"

"Goody gumdrops"
