Cast the iconic D&D characters

[RigaMortus2]

Eww!! With some of these casting choices I'd be expecting a D&D movie of about the same quality as the first one. Tyler Mane may look good in the costume but he sure can't act!

What are you basing his lack of acting ability on? The first X-Men movie, or other projects he was involved in?

RangerREG -> Re: Paul Bettany as Raistlin, I believe he'd do wonders. I'd like to see him do all his Raistlin scenes, then bulk up and act as Caramon, too!

Meh. Don't really like the age-old twin illusion trick, even with computer-aided cut-and-paste special effect. This is where the casting producers have their work cut out, to search a bulked-up twin double of Bettany.

I can't remember if it was you or not, but someone proposed Bettany for Raistlin about a year ago, and my jaw dropped. He's perfect

Maybe it's me. Maybe it's someone else. At least I'm not alone in the boat.

If Jean Claude Van Damn can pull it off (Double Impact)...

Or Jet Li, Jackie Chan, the silver-haired dude on All My Children soap (which I swear they're not real-life twins)... all passe.

Mialee ( http://www.enworld.org/Pozas/Pictures/Iconics/mialee.jpg ): Kristin Kreuk ( http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0471036/ )

I have to say, in that pic, she is hot, hot, hot.

But I think Evangeline lilly could play the part as well http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1431940/

Hehehe. Now that would be a sight to see: An elf going out with a hobbit (Dominic Monaghan).

For Lidda: Ellen Page

I saw X-Men 3 over the weekend and thought "oh my god, that's Lidda!"

Demiurge out.

Hmm, let's try this again: http://www.enworld.org/Pozas/Pictures/Iconics/mialee.jpg

As for talent over looks, I believe Kristin Kreuk can deliver a decent performance as Mialee (hey, this ain't Shakespeare! ). The way I set up the cast above, you have one big star (Vin Diesel), needed to make a movie... er, move; a few known-enough talents (Kristanna Loken, Kristin Kreuk) and the rest you fill up with aspiring actors aiming for the big shot (most of the other from-TV-series actors).

That's a really good way of looking at it, also leads to further feelings that you should be the casting director for the movie. (and in case I haven't mentioned it before, your art (in general and on the iconics) totally rocks)
