11. lol
Honestly, Allen, I think that would be too cool, if they just switched Darrens mid-film, with no comment or anything.

8. I Laugh Out Loud Just Thinking About It...
However... it's "Agador Spartacus"... with his streetwise Puerto Rican lisp keeps me in stitches.

Agador: When joo gonna let me audition for your cho'?
Armand: When you have talent.

12. just brilliant casting...
I would have zero problem with your line-up....

And if Nicole said no, than I think Renee Zelwegger would do well as Sam and she's worked w/Carrey too....

15. Thank you, thank you, thank you...
One of our favorite games at my house is "Cast the Pretend Movie". We spend hours speculating while we're accomplishing nothing much at all...

16. Great choices, but no one could afford their prices :(
Edited on Sun Sep-07-03 02:07 AM by SoCalDem
That's what sucks these days.. Most movies are "franchise" operations or "vanity" rpoductions.. That's why so many of them suck :(.. Studios no longer have the luxury of casting who would be prefect for any given role.. They are calling in favors, or indulging egos..

I get really tired of the reallllly old guys in movies who always seem to have leading ladies who are the exact age of their granddaughter..

17. Excellent. But what do you think about Morgan Fairchild as Samantha?
She always struck me as having an air of humorous wickedness about her.

20. Great cast! Kidman is certainly bewitching
Jim Carrey is a great choice, if you can get him to tone down the grimaces.
