October 25, 201311 yr comment_5568762 I'd like to see Michael Parks take on Vince McMahon, just to see if he could pull it off. I have a feeling that he could. The guy is an amazing character actor.
October 25, 201311 yr comment_5568831 No one except Tom Cruise can be Eric Bischoff. That's just perfect.
October 26, 201311 yr comment_5568924 No one except Tom Cruise can be Eric Bischoff. I can see Tom being way out of the price range and having to settle for Ted McGinley. I actually prefer this to Cruise. McGinley would perfectly capture the fake, plastic, game show vibe of "Easy E."

October 29, 201311 yr comment_5569459 The guy who played Maurice Levy on The Wire should play Heyman.
October 29, 201311 yr comment_5569596 Sorry, thought I got them all. There was a post like that in the most recent thread in every single folder on the forum. Spam account that somehow got through.

November 1, 201311 yr comment_5570112 Having seen Bad Santa, I'm 99% sure Billy Bob Thornton has to play The Sandman.
November 2, 201311 yr comment_5570242 Having seen Bad Santa, I'm 99% sure Billy Bob Thornton has to play The Sandman. That's glorious. I believe Dwayne Johnson would be perfect to play The Rock.
November 2, 201311 yr comment_5570282 I believe Dwayne Johnson would be perfect to play The Rock. They do kinda look alike.
November 4, 201311 yr comment_5570453 Woody Harrelson would be a perfect Stone Cold Steve Austin as long as you replace beer with hemp.
November 5, 201311 yr Author comment_5570502 He played a boxer in a movie in the late 90's with bald head and goatee, and was a complete dead ringer for Austin.
November 9, 201311 yr comment_5571781 I'll first off state that it's a wrestler that would be pointless to cast, but I'm constantly struck at how much Michael Bennett looks like Aaron Paul since he cut his hair.
November 12, 201311 yr Author comment_5572115 It would be in no way possible because of the size differences, but Clancy Brown (bad guy in Highlander, prison guard in The Shawshank Redemption) is a dead ringer for Andre. It's funny that someone brought up Pacino as Flair. It probably could have worked 20 years ago, even physically. I've been watching Heat on Cinemax lately (even though I've triple-dipped it on HV releases, I still catch it on TV when I can) and he had to have been in excellent shape during the shootout and especially the run he makes at the end in LAX where you see it's all him and not a double.
February 24, 201411 yr comment_5590096 That IAB head, Lt. Ed Tucker, from Law and Order SVU reminds me of that cocksucker Johnny Ace - sounds just like him and probably equally petty. http://lawandorder.wikia.com/wiki/Ed_Tucker
March 4, 201411 yr Author comment_5591782 Philip Seymour Hoffman would have made a good Buddy Rose. I suggested in a Vince thread he would have made a good Pat Patterson. It essentially would have been a similar role to the one he played in Moneyball, but a bit more syncophantic.

November 24, 201410 yr Author comment_5641498 The Flair-Pacino connection brings to mind a missed opportunity when WWE did all those Hollywood sendups leading up to WrestleMania 21. Their version of Glengarry Glen Ross with the Nature Boy as either Ricky Roma or Shelley Levene and Eric Bischoff as either the Alec Baldwin or Kevin Spacey character. I'd prefer Bischoff to the latter just to see Ric call him a see you next Tuesday over and over again.
