		<description>Hi Someasshole, thanks for the comment. Do you really need to be so abrasive though? Surely you&#039;ve read a fantasy casting before, in which 90% of the choices are based on visual appearance. No?

Is Jesse really a &quot;tough guy&quot;? I didn&#039;t get that at all from his character. Yes he&#039;s a strong, American type guy, but does he look a thing like a cowboy? Hardly. He&#039;s physically average and incredibly polite. Yes he can take anyone down in a fight, and does so without breaing a sweat, but he is closer to a preacher than John Wayne. Franco not only has a similar build and look, but is a pretty diverse actor, from James Dean to Pineapple Express.

I said flat-out that Pattinson is a bold choice. I also said that the dude is ridiculously similar looking to Cassidy. No I do not have a vagina; I&#039;m just not so close minded to think that an actor should be written off after one niche role. I could give a fuck about Twilight, in fact I wrote an article where I mentioned I won&#039;t report about it on my site. I also mentioned in the article above that Jonathan Rhys Meyers is probably the better choice for Cassidy. Again, the Pattinson pick was based on physical presence.

And why does he HAVE to be Irish? Would you scoff at the thought of someone from Wales playing Batman? If you can act and pull it off I don&#039;t care where they&#039;re from.

And why does Herr Starr HAVE to be a bald actor? Ben Kingsley? John Malcovich? Why don&#039;t you just throw Bruce Willis&#039; name into the mix... I chose Marsters because I think he would work with the character visually and through the performance. Malcovich has no subtlety at all, and Kingsley is a horrendous actor. Dude will be in anything with a paycheck. I haven&#039;t seen a single episode of Buffy or Stargate (thanks for the assumption, someasshole). I was pretty impressed with Marsters on Smallville; I think he captured the subtle calmness that Herr Starr is famous for. But surely not, he has hair! No actor has ever shaved their head for a role!!

As for Elizabeth Banks being boring... I don&#039;t know. Is Tulip REALLY that dense of a character? Banks can play serious, she can do comedy, she&#039;s got the look and she can be a strong female presence.

You don&#039;t know who Ted Levine is? Really? Go imdb him. He only portrayed on of the most memorable roles of the 90&#039;s. And he looks like the motehrfucking saint. Ron Perlman?! The living boardwalk characature? He doesn&#039;t look a thing like the saint, and nothing he has done so far leads me to believe he can do anything but sarcastic bad-ass (Hellboy, Blade II, what else?).

Thank you for your time, someasshole.</description>

		<description>I couldnt buy Franco as a tough guy. He&#039;s &#039;more zac efron than john wayne&#039; as you put it. 
Elizabeth Banks is a remarkebly boring actress.
Your Cassidy selection is something of a curiosity, do you have a vagina?. I dont know who could play Cassidy, but they better fucking be irish. One of the comic highlights of the books is the contrast between the attitudes of Jesse and Cassidy, and that is in part due to their nationalities.
Now hears where you go so far wrong its not even funny, i&#039;m guessing your a buffy fan (suprised you dont have that douche from Bones playing Jesse) and i liked Buffy, it got better as it went on, and probably out grew some of its fan base. But come on man, are you serious?, out of all the quality bald headed actors in the world you pick this one-hit wonder?????. Try Ben Kingsley or John Malcovich.
I dont know who that guy you&#039;ve got marked for the saint is, i really hope he&#039;s not from some dire crap like Firefly or worse Stargate. The saint of killers will probably be the hardest thing to cast, and with the wonders that todays make up artists, can conjure up it&#039;s anyones guess. But if i had to pick i&#039;de say ron Perlman.
Thank you for your time.</description>
