[Captain Tired]

Manhunter (1945)

Will Graham: Humphrey Bogart
Jack Crawford: Orson Welles
Hannibal Lecter: Claude Rains

[Eddie Dean]

I'd go with Welles as Lecter instead of Crawford. Move it up five years and I'd say Monty Clift as Will Graham.

 

[Captain Tired]

I did initially have Welles as Lecter, but I honestly couldn't pass up the inclusion of Claude Rains. And I just couldn't see Claude Rains as anyone else in that.

But Bogart is non-negotiable.

 

[DawnWarrior]

Paul Verhoeven's Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice (1990)

Arnold Schwarzenegger - Superman

See, I was gonna have Arnold as Aquaman in mine, but thought 1983 was too early. But Conan came out in '82 so maybe.
