One of the most original new films I've seen in a long time.
Antonio Banderas - Armand in Interview with the Vampire.
Really? Do you have any other choices? I'm trying to picture someone else.
I'd like to know why you feel he was a bad choice. Just call me curious.
I loved Antonio's Armand too.
However looks wise it's not true to the book. Armand's was supposed to be a blond,curly haired,cherubic looking young man!
They actually got him more or less spot on in Queen of the Damned but blink and you would miss him.
Are you an Anne Rice fan? I've been looking for years!
Ok! Now I get it! I saw the movie, but never read the book. I can understand why Antonio Banderas would seem miscast to people who read the book before seeing the film.
He was hot! That reminds me! I'd better add him to my crushes on that other thread!
Yeah nothing against Antonio, it's just that Armand in the books was about 14-16. Can't remember exactly.
If you mean me Dazed. I read all the vampire chronicle books years ago. I haven't read any released after Blood and Gold though.
Jason Segel as David Foster Wallace in The End of The Tour... David Foster Wallace is one of the most cerebral and thoughtful American writers of his generation. He studied maths and philosophy and wrote about politics and culture in his non-fiction and wrote complex meta-fiction as well, inclueing the iconic novel Infinite Jest... Segel plays him as a dudebro moron... literally has his mouth agape for half the movie, including a scene where he dances around alone like an idiot staring vacantly into the sky above...
Tobey Maguire as chess genius Bobby Fischer in Pawn Sacrifice... Fischer is brilliantly intelligent and intense tall guy... i keep confusing cute and soft spoken Maguire with the guy who plays Frodo...
Having read the book a few times I just can't picture Leonardo DiCaprio as Jay Gatsby.

Adam Sandler, Tom Cruise or Melissa McCarthy in anything.
