I highly recommend The Wicker Man for all Nicholas Cage fans out there.

Gotta disagree here. Russell Crowe in Gladiator = perfect.

Will Smith in anything other than comedy.

I'm more passionate about comic book movies than I anticipated. My personal gripes are:

Topher Grace in Spiderman 3 - Didn't really dislike him, but I HATED how they always had his head pop in and out when venom was running around doing awesome stuff. Plus emo peter parker already had me in a foul mood before I even saw anything venom related. On that note ....

Toby Maguire in Spiderman 1-3 - I know peter parker is supposed to be a dork, but I just can't get over this guy. He's too much, and when he becomes spiderman I can't forget how much i dislike him.

Arnold Schwarzenegger as Mr. Freeze - I can forgive Clooney, but this was just devastating for me to see. The ice puns didn't help anything.

Val Kilmer as Batman - At least if Two-Face provided him a debilitating injury Bruce Wayne could have gone on to be a lipstick model.

Jodie Foster in Contact - I actually really like this movie, but she bugs me for 2 straight hours. Her voice drives me insane ... it's like she has her own accent.

have to disagree with that. I've really enjoyed most of his movies outside of comedy, Pursuit of Happyness, I am Legend, Independence Day, Seven Pounds. While not the greatest of all movies I dont think his portrayal was lacking anything that could have been added by another actor in his place.

If you hated it you should check out the original 70's version..it's one of the best "thriller/horror" movies I've ever seen and should NOT of been remade.

I don't get the hate for Nick Cage. I'm a fan of the first National Treasure, Gone in 60 Seconds, Matchstick Men and Family Man. I haven't seen a lot of other movies that he's in, but I thought he was fine in those.

VANFLAMESFAN · 02-16-2009, 06:21 PM

^^^Yeah, I dont understand the hate either. He's been in his fair share of crap(Next, Wicker Man, Bangkok Dangerous, Ghost Rider.....etc) but at the same time I think he's done a bunch of quality work. Leaving Las Vegas, The Rock, Face Off, Family Man, Matchstick Men, Raising Arizona, Lord of War.....and those are the ones that come to mind. Lord of War is probably the most underrated movie of the last few years IMO.

Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne.

I know a lot of people will be like WDF BATMAN RULLEZZ, I didn't say Batman, I said Bruce Wayne. His Batman is actually pretty good, bit over done with that voice but..

shinyDark · 02-16-2009, 08:04 PM

How about Catherine Zeta-Jone, Penelope Cruz, Tom Cruz, Jim Carrey, Will Farrell, & David Carusoe in just about anything they've ever done!
And... not necessairly bad casting, but for bad movies - No Country For Old Men & There Will Be Blood. These two movies made me want to scratch my eyes out with a tooth pick!!!

The man should have his nuts stepped on by a 300-pound woman in stilletos everyday for the rest of his life for this steaming turd alone.

LOL. I actually liked the Village, but Lady in the Water was too much suck for me. So bad I didn't want to see the Happening.
