Bale and Pearlman are my picks, Snipes gets honorable mention. Hugh Jackman didn’t fit the bill physically, but his acting is so great that it didn’t really bother me.

Snipes doesn’t get SHIT from me, ever, for selling TotalGym.

Same for Chuck Norris. They should be fucking ashamed.

Snipes did TotalGym???

Saw the Chuck adverts but Snipes??

I have seen Snipes doing a Total Gym commercial.[/quote]

As have I, he says he keeps one on set between takes or some shit. Do I believe he uses it? No, but it’s still horse shit to endorse horse shit. It was some spiel about his martial arts and how it’s conditioning and flexibility training it the best out there or some blah blah blah…

What the fuck? Hugh Jackman as Wolverine…he’s 6’3 …Wolvie is 5’8 at BEST. He’s as tall as Sabretooth.

Depends who draws him, but he’s supposed to be 5’3. The thing is, that barely works in the comic books, so I can’t imagine it working in live action. I’d laugh at every fight scene.[/quote]

They’ve been drawing him taller then that for years now anyway.

Bale and Snipes. Snipes was as spot on as it gets for a character. Bale just destroyed the character and all would be superheros should take note.

Hugh played Wolverine pretty well also and Perlman is great in anything he does.

What about Michael Jai White as Spawn?

Yea I’m going to have to go with Michael Jai White as spawn, Snipes as Blade and Bale as batman, in no particular order. I think all three of these were wonderfully cast.

I think that with the upcoming luke cage movie they should have White play him but it’s a john singleton movie so that means that Tyrese gets the main part of course.

Spawn was awful, and they could’ve picked someone else to play him. The animated series was pretty good though.

I think White is a flippin’ bad ass.

Holy shit, they’re doing a Power Man movie? Nice.

Late’s an understatement. Not sure how I missed that. Either way, thanks for the heads up. Hope they do it justice.

I dont think they could have done any better with casting Snipes for Blade. I used to love his movies (Passenger 57) but he seems to have taken a dive recently.

Spawn sucked monkey ass. Could have easily got someone better for that.

No mention of Punisher? (no not Lundgren)

Toby McQuire sucks as Spidey.

Wasnt feeling Hulk.

Now Keaton and Bale did a fantastic job as the Bat.
