Hodgey's recycling of old cast members is far more effective, here.

[Stu]

Both are good, but I ranked Hodgey's just above Sergei's here, so the Canuck gets it.

[DevSop]

Not going to say anything mean so I'm just voting for Hodgey.

[Sportsguy]

The shutout continues

[creepy]

This is my 1 and 2. I think Serge's leads are great and love a young Orson as Darth. Don't care for his other villains, though. Fishy just has the best cast, hands down. The only guy I wasn't in love with was Duncan, but I've changed my mind on that and come around. Never cared for DHP in anything, but it evens out as I never cared for C-3PO. He'd probably fit well.

Still can't believe that Serge is a legit last seed.

[Deadly]

Sorry Serg.

[Habs]

Hodgey, but Sergei's Han if fucking brilliant!

[Ultimatejobber]

No Shutout. While I'm clearly in the minority here I don't just think Serge's cast is better, I think it is better by far. His Vader and Palpatine castings alone are amazing.

Hugh Laurie > Jack Palance.

I don't see Ledger as Skywalker, particularly in A New Hope. Ledger strikes me as too hardened/edgy and Luke is a total rube in the first movie. DiCaprio is a more complete package in the roles he has played. I can see him as both the boyish, innocent Skywalker and the Darker Luke we see in Empire and Jedi. Ledger only fits for me in two of the three movies.

Finally: Sam Jackson is too angry to be Lando. When I think Lando, I think of a Colt 45 commercial. I think smooth tolker. I think Ladies man. I don't think "That motherfucka's operational!"

While your other points might be debatable and I'm glad Serge's cast is getting some love, this point here is one of the more laughable things I've read in awhile.

Thanks for the SLOL.

[Ultimatejobber]

Glad I could make you laugh. I've never liked Jack Palance. Ever. So I stand by my opinion.

In "A Knight's Tale" Hedger plays a boyish innocent wannabe knight that becomes more and more hardened and edgy throughout the movie.

I'm happy that a lot of people voted against me regretfully, and would have voted for me if I had been up against most (or all) of the others who are going to make it past the first round.

I say that my low seeding comes about from a lot of people (including myself) not getting around to sending in seeding ballots. Ah well-- next time.
