[Mr. Earle]

14.Batman I(Bruce Wayne)-Sam Witwer or Jeffrey Donovan

WTF bro?

 

[Eddie Dean]

Most of his list is pretty WTF..

 

[Mr. Earle]

He cast 139 characters. Dude needs a hobby or something.

 

[Donnie Darko]

How weird does it make me that I would go see a Wonder Twins movie with that cast?

 

[batnkevlar]

I hate when people pose huge 200 person cast lists... it might be more exciting if people took the time and posted pictures with the names... it makes it perdy...

 

[Donnie Darko]

not just pics, but also I really enjoy when people give a little write-up as to WHY they picked someone. It opens up a lot more for discussion.

 

[TheWatcher]

I've got a two person cast.

Henry Cavill as Superman.
Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan.

Done.

 

[HighFivingMF]

I've got a two person cast.

[illmatikk]

[Man of Steel]

So,you were bored and made this list. Photos would have been nice.

Like I'm going to post pictures for 139 characters. I doubt it would even let me.

 

[sabetoonth]

Nope, you're limited to ten images a post

 

[UltimateJustin]

Ben Affleck as Captain Marvel

Nicholas Hoult as Rabit

Emma Stone as Slapstick

Rabit? Affleck as Marvel, never thought of it before, might actually work.

Oops, meant Robin obviously. My cousins brought their rabbits over last week and I accidentally killed one and hid the remains.

I guess this is more or less my brain trying to force me to come clean about it like in the movie The Machinist.

But yeah, I think that people generally hate Affleck less now than they did 7 years ago, so it might work.

Just tell them about the rabbit. Affleck's only problem is that he's a little too short.
