    Angelina Jolie for Basic Instinct, 1984, Lifeforce... basically any movie where a leading actress got naked.
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    Dunk as William Wallace. Or any of Sean Connery's Bond movies.

    For a second I thought you meant the cat...:o
    He would make an awesome Heathcliff....from W Heights, that is. Anyone else find that movie scary??? :o I don't know if there was a remake, but I am talking about the original.

    I haven't seen the original in a long time... I loved the Ralph Fiennes/Juliette Binoche version though :o have you read the book? :o it's soooo fantastic!

    And no, I wasn't talking about the cat :D

    Oh, no I haven't seen that version and no, I haven't read the book. Though it is on the shelf, collecting dust.
    The original starred Sir Laurence Olivier and was scary in my opinion. :o
    creeeepppyyyy
    Try to see it.

    Hmm... I dunno if I did but I'm guessing I did... I went through a phase when I was about 13 of reading the Brontes and Jane Austin and stuff like that. Wuthering Heights was the only one that really stuck with me though. Probably helped that we studied it in school though... I still remember entire paragraphs from it :D

    I remember once convincing a bunch of religious nuts that I worshipped Tom Selleck as a kind of excellent deity. :D But yeah, Harrison Ford is perfect as Indy. Even in the new one, where very little was perfect.

    I imagine someone taller and more strongly built for that role...
    Someone that could be made to look dark and brooding...

    hmm

    maybe Olivier Martinez. But I'll get back to you on that one.
    Maybe Benicio del Toro as well
    y la banda de Guille... cuando toca?

    Hmm... good point... but Johnny could beef up for the role. It's funny, I'm thinking Latino for Catherine... somebody like a younger Monica Bellucci!

    Is there anyone good enough for these parts? Although I though Ralph Fiennes was great!

    Not benicio anyway... he has to be devastatingly handsome... according to MY rules anyway :D

    He was dashing ( :D ), mean, broody, devastatingly handsome and just KICK ASS in 24 :)

    But can he do an English accent? :cool:

    I don't think it was meant as hate, just that Tom Selleck and his moustache were the first choice for Indy believe it or not :D He went with Magnum PI instead.

    I'd love to have seen Edward Norton as Lee Harvey Oswald. A bit too old now though :(

    Also, River Phoenix as Jim Carroll in The Basketball Diaries. Di Caprio did a great job but Phoenix was the first choice.

    Magnum PI wouldn't let him have time off to do the movie and really now who else but Harrison Ford could be Indy??? :confused:


    When I was a little girl I had a HUGE crush on Tom Selleck :o

    That's a relief. :D Jeez, in one day, I reveal myself as a Walker Texas Ranger fanatic, and gay for Tom Selleck. Not Rhino's best day. :p
