ITT: 1/10 casting choices

I dunno, he acted like a smug self-centered douche pretty well.
>>
>>63465568
Literally have been thinking about this miscast lately.
>>
>>63465568
Malin Akerman was a worse choice. She has the emotive range of a popsicle stick.
>>
It's true, he was too obviously a villain. In reality, I have no problems with him as an actor, but in this particular film, with Snyder directing, did he ever once feel like a complex, morally pragmatic "bad" guy?
>>
>>63465612
And you still dunno?
>>
Comedian 10/10
Rorschach 10/10
Manhattan 6/10
Nite Owl 6/10
Silk Spectre 1/10
Ozymandias 1/10
>>
>>63465648
This, and probably had to suck on one or three to get the part as well.
>>
>>63465648
this tbqfh

she was absolutely terrible and the sex scene was cringeworthy.

ozy wasn't nearly as bad as this disaster (and usually she's just below average)
>>
I've never read the comic fully, but from the pages and illustrations of the character I've seen, the casting choice wasn't quite smug enough. The comic version looks smug to the point of it being dangerous to everyone around him. Like you would naturally underestimate him at every turn and he'd fuck you because of it. Any comic readers care to comment?

Never read or given two shits about the Comic but he looks aesthetic as fuck for a villain that looks up to Caesar.
>>
>>63465712

That's accurate, but also I think Ozy had to look like someone smug that you actually might also believe in and follow. Maybe not admire, but believe will win the day.

Matthew whatever the fuck just looks snidely.
>>
Who else would be better for Ozy?
Just wondering as I didn't think it was too bad but could've been much better, also the Comedian and Rorshach were perfect.
>>
>>63465748
>implying Eisenberg is not perfect as teenage Lex
>>
>>63465680
Manhattan was literally the only 10/10 you fuck. Crudup was by a wide margin the best part of the entire movie.

Comedian was 9/10
Haley as rorscach was just mediocre 6/10

everyone else was just 1/10
>>
>>63465680
How is manhattan only 6? What could he have done better?
>>
>>63465680
pretty accurate right here. I'd bump Owl up to 7, but otherwise legit.
>>
>>63465773

Yeah that's the vibe I get. He reminds me of a competent, successful Zap Brannagin. The movie guy looks like a Batman villian.

To be fair the sex scene was meant to be cringeworthy because that was what Snyder set out to do. Because "muh satire" (a concept he has little grasp on). And he's very hit and miss in hiring actors, especially when it comes to female roles. I don't even hate Amy Adams for instance, but she's totally wrong for Louis Lane
>>
>>63465748
>tfw thought Kevin Spacey was perfect as Luthor
Surprised they haven't had a body builder play him yet
>>
>>63465680
Bump rorshach down about 2 or 3 and but doc up a couple

The fault from Billy Crudup is that I imagined Manhatten with a much different voice, but his actually makes more sense and was close to the intention according to Gibbons

Yeah, I'd always of Dr. M as more cold and robotic, but Cruddup played him as more zen and aloof.

Snyder literally just casts pretty faces for most female roles because his target audience is mostly straight young men and straight young men like eye candy.

Probably not that great of an actor to play such a complex character, but as far as looks go he would be perfect for the role.

I still have hopes he'll play Mr. Freeze in a serious Batman movie one day
>>
>>63466169
Watchmen is his only film with depth but overall I say 300 is stronger just because it did adapt the comic correctly(besides those awful queen filler scenes) and it fits Snyder's "style" better

Not sure Fass could have gotten the innate sadness in Ozy's character. Though probably just because he wouldn't read the comic and no one would have explained it to him.

so the opposite of Veidt should have acted? He was a personable Bruce Wayne-type. That's what made the villain reveal work. Hell he was cracking jokes about cocaine in the comic.

I don't give a fuck about capeshit but I especially will put off seeing Batman v Superman because of these two casting choices. A neurotic-Jew type playing a megalomaniac business genius and a twinkette with hardly any muscle mass (or even tits, I'd be okay with a voluptuous woman) playing a hardcore badass warrior chick.

Go watch 300. It looks like dog shit smeared with vaseline. Watchmen is the best looking capeshit ever.
