I'd watch the shit out of that
---

This was probably the most difficult to cast

So many child roles and I couldn't cast Jacob Tremblay!

You forgot Lana Parilla as Jessamine for dishonored (you seconded her, which i think is all that's required for extra non-mandatory characters)

I have a strange desire to see Michael Cera as Ness but that's a terrible idea so don't count that as a vote

It's always hard casting child actors, because they grow up so fast. I thought about going Philip Wiegratz for Porky, but he's way too old now.
---

Nominate:
Devil May Cry
---

I'm tempted to do potential subjects of "Recast horror icons" or "Recast superheroes"

Things where it would take the most popular character from several series (which don't have enough memorable characters to fully cast)
---

That's a cool idea.

I wonder if board 8 could make a good Fantastic Four movie.

One thing's for sure, we couldn't do worse than 20th Century Fox!

Board 8 cast Derek Jeter as Aang in the Avatar: TLA topic

we literally did worse than M. Night
---

Board 8 will be credited as Alan Smithee for that one.
---

Second Carla Gugino because I don't want to take the chance of Emily Blunt winning because I want to cast her as Samus

Second Jonathan Tucker to prevent spamming the board with tiebreaker polls
---

Shouldn't Ed Oxenbould have two for Jeff?
