I've been reading you all's dream casts. Now I'm curious who your nightmare cast would be? Who would be the worst possible people to play Jack & friends? How could Hollywood ruin the movie before it ever got started, just because they wanted to put in popular names that just wouldn't fit? Here's my picks:
Jack=The Rock, Vin Diesel, Ashton Kutscher (sp?), Will Smith, Sean William Scott, Nicholas Cage, Ben Stiller
Abe=Tom Green, Jimmy Kimmel, Jason Mewes, Anthony Anderson, Sam Elliot, (that actually might be pretty cool though), Ben Stiller
Gia=Tara Reid, Renee Zelwegger, (sp? also, does she always look like she just bit into a lemon?), Rosario Dawson
Julio=Ben Stiller, Will Ferrell, George Lopez, Bernie Mac
Kusum=Ben Stiller, (I just can't stand him), Jet Li, Michael Madsen, the guy from Harold & Kumar
Kolobati=Sandra Oh, (don't like her much either), Maggie Gylenhall, (sp?), Marisa Tomei, Angelina Jolie, (she's in everything!)
So there you go. The worst possible casting ideas for the upcoming RJ movie, (in my humble opinion). Can you imagine Dan LaFontaine saying "If you see one movie this summer, see The Tomb. With The Rock, Anthony Anderson, Tara Reid, Ben Stiller, Jet Li, and starring Angelina Jolie. See the movie that has young 19 & 20 year olds writhing in anticipation. See The Tomb." Ugh. I mean, come on. Hollywood almost put Vin Diesel in the role of Agent 47 in Hitman. I wouldn't put anything past them.
Thoughts?

The present state of the world is not the proof of philosophy’s impotence, but the proof of philosophy’s power. It is philosophy that has brought men to this state—it is only philosophy that can lead them out.

Axioms Jack seems to live by (inadvertantly or not):
Why he does what he does: "I chose this life. I know what I'm doing. And on any given day, I could stop doing it. Today, however, isn't that day. And tomorrow won't be either." Bruce Wayne, Identity Crisis
On Rasalom: "Water's wet, the sky is blue...and good old Satan Claus, Jimmy...he's out there...and he's just gettin' stronger." Joe Hallenbeck, The Last Boyscout
