Hollywood's 7 Worst Casting Blunders (vanity)
PA Times | 9/27/05 | Dr. Pissant

Posted on 09/27/2005 12:37:14 PM PDT by pissant

We've all sat through many movies that we've deemed a total waste of time. For guys, it's usually when your better half drags you to a hideous chick-flick. For the gals, it's usually having to sit thru gangster movies on Turner Classic Movies with hubby.

But one thing both men and women agree on is that Hollywood has a knack of putting at least one actor in every movie that is horribly miscast! Here at the Pissant Univeristy for Knowledge & Entertainment Studies (PUKES) we've compiled the top 7 miscast thesbians in Hollywood history!

Top 7 Movie Miscasts

7. Will Smith as James West in Wild, Wild West

I only lasted 20 minutes because of this royal screwup.

6. Mark Hammill as Luke Skywalker in Star Wars

Way too wimpy and annoying

5. Denise Richards as Christmas Jones in 007's The World is not Enough

Nuclear scientist? She ruined the movie

4. Colin Ferrell as Alexander in ALexander

Any military leader that looked like such a wuss would have been murdered by his generals in a nanosecond.

3. Ali McGraw as some chick in Love Story

As exciting as peeling paint

2. Brad Pitt as some dude in the Fight Club

About as believable being a toughie as I am being a ballerina

1. John Wayne as Ghengis Khan in The Conqueror

A cowboy Chinaman? Yikes. Though I did enjoy it for some reason.

Go rent From Russia with Love. It's one of the best spy movies ever, hands down.

I was utterly disappointed in the Matrix. It looked slick, but made zero sense to me.

I'd like to add:

Johnny Knoxville as Luke Duke
Seann William Scott as Bo Duke
Willie Nelson as Uncle Jesse
Jessica Simpson as Daisy Duke, and last but not least,
Burt Reynolds as Boss Hogg!

The only part they cast right in the Dukes of Hazzard movie was the car!

I don't even find him attractive. Too pretty, and he's got a pig nose.

But he plays a darned good crazy guy. He was not a tough guy in that movie, he was a creepy imaginary friend.

He was also really good in Kalifornia, and Snatch. Yes, I know, I said snatch. But the movie was really funny. Not funny ha ha, but funny in a crazy way.
