In certain comic book movies, actors or actresses are sometimes miscasted.
A notable example to me was Invisble Woman. Jessica Alba is smoking, salsa hot!!! However I thought that she should not have taken the role. Scarlett Johansson would have been a better candidate...not just for the sake of good looks but for the acting talent as well.
Another notable example was George Clooney in Batman and Robin. Goddammit....the freakin' doctor from ER as the Dark Knight...Holy rusted metal batman!!! Kilmer, Keaton and Bale were the best nuff said.
Anyway the point to this thread is for you to express your disgust towards Hollywood's stupid casting of superheroes in film..

Post Away Gentlemen!!

Kirsten Dunst as Mary Jane Watson in Spider-Man. Tell me they could not have gotten somebody a lot hotter to play MJ. We all know that she is supposed to be a smoking hot supermodel. Kirsten Dunst? Give me a break.

True talk...I found Kirsten cute in "Interview with the Vampire" and I thought she would grow up to be an uber-hottie.

I was wrong...she doesn't look bad...but Mery Jane is a supermodel/hottie...Kirsten Dunst isn't...
The same went for Jean in the X-Men movies...Famke Janssen isn't bad but...she's not hot enough to be Jean...I'm sure Crixx would agree with me on this.

He would be insane tro state otherwise

famke is indeed a hottie and i believe shes a nartural red head so super kudos to that'

buttttttttttttt she doesnt have jean's figure nor her insanely beautiful eyes
her fingers and legs dont taper the way jeans do'

her hair isnt as full as jean's

Miscast as well, de big black fella for king pin
Halle for catwoman
lol i mean WTF was that lol

Ana paquin for rogue!!
What part of anapaquin is a super sexy rough southern girl?

? lol

Did you know that rachel leigh cook(possibly hottest chick in her weight class everrrrrrrrrrrr) originally was slated for the part of rogue
but when she found out how much sgi was involved she turned it down
aparently shes to serious about her acting to like roles that rely on cgi to that xtent

shes so cute
and she says she isnt small, shes just space efficient awwwwwwwwwwwwwww

Most notable is Tyler Mane as Sabretooth from the first X-Men movie. Triple-H would have been a better choice

i find they should pull in most of the wrestling characters for dem kinda comic, gaming movies. I know Street FIghter isnt a comic book movie, but they did make a comic book later lol.

But every blasted one in dat movie was miscasted! never seen a set of scruny fellas in meh life!

New Era Outlaw · « **Reply #7 on:** November 09, 2006, 04:14:27 PM »

I agree with the sentiment and Famke was an awful choice for Jean. She looked awful in X:Men 2. What surprised me, though, was that while she tanked as Jean Grey in the first two movies, she was perfect in the last as Dark Phoenix. Third time's the charm, I guess.

Also, straying a bit here....Dean Cain was a pretty bad pick for Superman in Lois and Clark. I never saw a Man of Steel look so rail-thin in my life.

SHAQ IN STEELL LAWD THAT MOVIE IS BAWLS!

I'll hit you one even better.

Uma Thurman as Poison Ivy in Batman and Robin.

I mean, when I heard that Poison Ivy was going to be in the next Batman movie, I was like: "Yaaaaay!!!", and when I saw that she looked like something you'd pick up in the Red Light District after being hit several times by a garbage truck, I was like "Boooooooo."

Well its still to be seen but I'm kinda worried about Topher Grace as Venom

wesleigh · « **Reply #11 on:** November 10, 2006, 12:12:26 AM »

dat whole street fighter cast was in a mess......it was like a parody! (altho i hav 2say dat d movie was enjoyable in a way, jus bc it was SF)

wa bout dat latest superman, dat whole cast was a tragedy, and i hear dem makin a nex one too

wa bout kull the conqueror, dem men fugured dey cudda cash in on hercules and kevin sorbo and we wudnt hav known the difference

i disagree with you here, i don't see what HHH could have brought to that role that Tyler Mane couldn't.

Well for starters, Tyler Mane is scrawny compared to Triple H.
I dunno, the game just has that natural ferocious look. Add the makeup and some extra facial hairs and claws...he would have made a great Sabretooth.

Oh and off the Topic...it was rumored that he was supposed to be the new Conan

Luigi isn't a comic book character, wesleigh.

ah i see where you coming from, you are a triple H fan so obviously you gonna find thathe will make a better sabretooth,

Actually I hate Triple H

My WWE favorites include John Cena, The Rock, Undertaker, Chris Benoit and Y2J

I agree about Rogue. She was always one of my favorite X-Men and to see Anna in that role ... unbelievable. They could have done so much more with that one. I didn't mind Halle in Catwoman that much. The story was lame and the costume was as well but she was quite hot in the movie. Tommy Lee could have pulled off Two-Face but not with the script he was given. Besides, the movie focused too much on Riddler. I mean, the entire back-story of Two-Face took up a whole 30 seconds in the movie and this is one of the most interesting Batman villains.

iam sure back in conan days
men was listening to stick bangin on wall an elephants farting an ting

not very .... entertaining

Berzerk · « **Reply #18 on:** November 16, 2006, 04:48:40 PM »

i actually found superman was pretty well cast, only problem was that it was time for a REAL super powered villain.

i think we should give cage a chance as ghost rider. he is an awesome actor.

i surprised nobody here mention halle berry as storm. dat hatta be the worst casting ive seen for the x men line up .(unfortunate thing is im not sure who coulda do that role...)

cyclops was a cardboard cut out but he really looked the part.

anybody find Topher Grace looks more like peter parker than Tobey?
