Bill Murray as Dr. Breen?

anyone else think this would be a great performance?
at the beginning you don't really know what to think about Dr. Breen when the game starts, he kind of talks like Bill Murray and doesn't seem that threatening. I think Murray could also pull off when he gets more sinister.

anyone else?

No way man Dennis Hopper has got to play Breen: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000454/
and Hugh Laurie as Gordon Freeman: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0491402/
Matthew Broderick for Barney: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000111/
and Danny Glover for Eli http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000418/

(and for the above for eli vance, you read correctly, he also played the voice of eli vance in HL2)

I couldn't take it seriously if it were true. No matter how good of a performance he would do, I wouldn't.

Naw, Eric pollard from Emmerdale Farm is Dr. Breen.

"Welcome, Welcome to Emmerdale farm, you have chosen or have been chosen to relocate to one of our best rural settings. I thought so much of Emmerdale, that i have chosen to run for counsillor. Welcome to Emmerdale farm, the animals are safer here"

Here is proof
