I used to think that Jason Bateman was just a poor man’s Michael j fox however I was wrong about that

However there are some real versions of this

I always liked that guy, kinda always rooted for him his whole career.

I knew him as James on little house on the prairie.



And teen wolf was so over with me that I automatically accepted and liked part 2.

Never paired Jason Bateman with MJ Fox.

Eric Stoltz with Fox, ala Back to the Future is a closer match.

Though Stoltz isn't what I'd call a 'poor man's ' version. Just a different take.

Not a bad take. Is it weird that I favor Quaid as an actor?

I think the low hanging fruit example is Skeet Ulrich as a poor man’s Johnny Depp.

also Gary Busey was sort of a poor man's Nick Nolte for awhile, but then he kind of got bigger (?) than Nolte

Brad Pitt started out as sort of a poor man's replacement for Robert Redford, but he soon became the actual replacement.

Watch the SmartLess on Tour limited series. Bateman is a prissy queen who defines high maintenance.

In a cast that features Sean Hayes, FFS.
