Most Ridiculous Bit of Casting Ever

You can tell that by his leg of mutton sideburns.

I have only just found this thread. I also think Tom Cruise is a terrible actor, there is just something about him that I despise. The only movie I liked that he was in is War of the Worlds, but that is probably because of the amazing author behind it. I wouldn't really call him a "midget" though, it was my understanding that he is close to 5ft8... it's small but it's not insanely small.

The guy does suck though.

He was pretty cool in Topic Thunder, and Top Gun will always have a special place in my heart (despite the dreadful choice of Kelly McGillis to play opposite him).

I didn't even know that was him in Tropic Thunder until well after the fact

If worst casting ever is the topic then you've all missed the ultimate crime.

Dick Van Dyke in Mary Poppins

 

[Bickaxe]

^ I'll second that.

And Ben Affleck in ...anything.

As for Tom Cruise, only liked him in Mission Impossible.

The casting was fine, the accent not so much.

Never Diss the Dick.

Probably ridiculous bit of casting but I want to see more Terry Pratchett in discworld shows/films, have him as a main character or something. Not very smart I know considering he isn't an actor and wont do so well because of it but when I saw him in the colour of magic, I couldn't help but smile, "aaaah it's him it's him!! wow!!"

 

[Dotsie]

I think that would be a bit distracting. Plus, he's a rubbish actor, bless him.

 

[Bouncy Castle]

And I'm pretty sure he'd have terrible trouble with the dialogue.

I think Kelly McGillis is a beautiful woman. I'd rather look at her than those plastic-faced fools of similar age.

She's still lovely.

Ridiculous casting? Sean Connery as anything other than a Scotsman. Hello Highlander! How did he get away with that all his career?

I'm having trouble even typing this, Hayden Christensen as Darth Vader. Saints above, Why?!

Robert Downey Jr as Sherlock Holmes. Beyond words.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnd, Nicole Kidman, Jude Law & Renee Zellweger in Cold Mountain. Renee Zellweger's character was a black woman in the book, Why? Why? Why? Bloody unforgivable.

I certainly fell in love with her when she starred in "Top Gun" what a babe :dance:
