Simple thread.

Here's a few to start:


Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luther (Batman vs Superman)

Denise Richards as Christmas Jones (The World is Not Enough)

There couldn’t have been a better Zuck. He portrays the smug, sarcastic, smart guy great. Anything else is a miscast.

Only thing that kept that movie from being perfect.

Jamie Dornan as Christian Grey in 50 shades. He's way too much of a fruit cake to pull off that character.

Should have cast Theo James. He is alpha enough to make that work.

I think that's because that is who he actually is.

I thought they were fine. Although he had a great performance, Antonio Banderas did not resemble the book description of Armand.

Physically, yes. But as book reader, he is more Reacher personality wise than Alan. Alan is too brooding and serious. Reacher in the books is a confidant smart arse who is laid back and intelligent. Alan's version is more machine like.

Yeah, book Reacher being 6'5 250 lbs and blond and Tom being the exact opposite did not sit well.

LOL What?


He was solid as Zuck in Social Network and him in Zombieland across from Woody was great.

Now everything else.... sure.
