Absolutely hilarious poster!!

I can just see it now, a flashback of Jim Carey summoning the fire lions and they attack the opposing army. We see "Berek" standing on a rock watching saying "Yeah! Can you feel (pelvic thrust) that (pelvic thrust)? Can you?!? (pelvic thrust)"

He cuts a limb from the One Tree and tests the fit of the iron-shod ends "Llllike a glove!"

OMG, I will have dreams about this I can tell...

I think you are spot on about John Cusack and Anne Heche. Have you thought about going into casting?

What are you saying?? John Cusack looks like he never had a deep thought in his life.

Thomas Covenant should be played by Leonardo DiCapri.

Just think about it. He is a great actor and can show all the emotions and conflicts that Thomas Covenant struggled with.

Also, they can change the rape scene into a 10 min love scene in which he makes love to her passionately and cries as he has to leave her.

Drool - snoop dogg

You can't possibly know how much I laughed over that one, since I could actually picture snoop doing it.

I take it you don't like Leonardo as Thomas?

i depsise the man himself. now also i despise russel crowe, but his performance in a beutiful mind won me over.

yet any role i see dicaprischmuck in, i just see a whinning little boy....whomever plays covenant, would need to be able in film to show constant inner awarness and conflict...don't see that from dicaprisnot

Actually I've seen DiCaprio improving recently, he could end up not-so-bad. Still no Covenant.

I stick with Bale as a good Cov.

Bale would be perfect, and he's about to become all the more popular with the release of Batman Begins.

He'll definitely be more on the radar after Batman. My one problem with Christian Bale is that while I know intellectually that he's a grownup, I always just see him as the kid in Empire of the Sun. (I didn't see American Psycho.)

For the record, I was just joking with Leo...

Geez.

I have a hard time with Bale though.

I could see Micheal Douglas pull it off though.

Michael Douglas is too old. Remember that in LFB, at least, TC is only in his early thirties.

Besides, he's icky. :P ;)
