    Mike Myers as both Wayne and Austin Powers. He has a way of doing corny characters with soul, and that’s quite rare.

    Bruce Campbell as Ash Williams in the ‘Evil Dead’ movies.

    I fucking dare you to try to remake that with another actor.

    Matthew Mcconaughey as Rust in True Detective S1. I’m desperately longing for a show that can live up to S1 with a character similar or better than Rust

      Every character in that season was perfect. Even the very minor roles played by unknowns were all knocked right out of the park. The stars really aligned for that first season, and I am very much okay with that being a rare thing.

      I thought the same,then i watched Mads Mikkelson in the tv series Hannibal and think he played the role even better.

        They both do different parts of the character’s story super well. Its worth noting that SotL Hannibal is far more sinister feeling and Hopkins killed that. Mads plays a Hannibal who MUST be reasonable and hide his darker nature and it’s a much more subtle performance

      I think Heath Ledger is the best possible version of that type of joker. I think Mark Hamill was amazing too though.

      RDJ just is iron man though. Similar life paths and everything.

    Hugh Jackman as Wolverine. With the sole exception of his height, (comic book Wolverine is very short, and Jackman is not) it’s like the character walked out of the comics and onto the movie screen.

      The like, 2 seconds in Deadpool where they had Cavill as wolverine made me wonder if he could legitimately do it

      Hard disagree. Hugh is too tall and too pretty. He’s done a fine job with the character but I am extremely excited for a new short-king wolverine. It’s time to move on.

        Why a spoon cousin, why not an axe? It’s dull you twit.

        I always remembered that bit, I rarely heard anyone but my dad call someone a twit.
