Which young, big-name star wants to be Repairman Jack? - Maggers - 04-22-2005

I also liked Traylor Howard who was in Anthony Clark's (Yes, Dear) first series Boston Common. I think Reynolds could make a good Jack, though I haven't seen Blade: Trinity yet.
BTW, it's DAN Hedaya (played Carla's husband Nick on Cheers), Maggers. I think you must need more coffee.....and Dick is a quite funny movie.
LOL! The synapses aren't firing quite right yet. Too early. Need more coffee. Dan and Sam are typos. My brain knew it was Dan but my fingers thought it was Sam.
Yes, I've been a big fan of DAN Hedaya since "Blood Simple."
P.S. I know I'm not functioning at my best today. I can tell by my typing. I've made more typos in this post than I have in a month of Sundays. Actually, that's how I can tell if I'm in top form - if my typing starts to fail, watch out.

Ok maybe he is getting a bit old but -- Tom Cruise (now I realize this can't happen due to the $$$ Tommy gets per film)
But he has it all -- small but in great shape like jack
Knows martial arts like jack
Can come across as a quite type of guy till he gets ready to rumble..
Not kidding I think Tom Cruise would have made a great Jack..
ShadowLord
Just realized -- I could also live with Keanu Reeves as Jack but once agian -- numerous problems with the $$$$$

And just when I was getting ready to compliment you on your taste for your Wilbur Smith recommendation, you go and spoil it with the KR nomination. The numero uno problem with KR is he has the emotional range of a carrot, not the $.

Wow, Scott, you're harsh. Insulting carrots like that!

For me, the ultimate proof of Keanu's acting abilities (or lack therof) is the movie "Much Ado About Nothing". When put in the same film as good actors like Kenneth Branagh, Emma Thompson, Denzel Washington, and even Michael Keaton, the poor Keanu Reaves looks like a stick. (And I apologize to all the sticks out there).
P.S. The film also stars Kate Beckinsale in her first feature-film role as Hero. Looking quite young and, may I say, curvaceous.

Couldn't agree more!
Am thinking the suggestion of Matthew Maconachy might just do it... (Having just re-read Crisscross with that in mind...) Maybe....

Matthew is trying to establish Dirk Pitt as the next franchise character.
And as executive producer of Sahara, I doubt seriously Matthew would consider being Jack.
The studio might think that Pitt is to close to Jack and therefore, rule him out
He wasn't bad in Sahara - I just wasn't overwhelmed.....

Colin Farell? There is no better actor to place in a potentially great movie to ruin it. :mad:
I can't believe that no one has mentioned Christian Bale. Too bad that he's already doing a dark and edgy guy who operates outside the law...

Welcome to the board, Double-edged.
Well, somebody mentioned Christian Bale. His movie, Equilibrium was cool. But he is too cool, like ice or machine. But he is good actor.
