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.

I forgot that you are so young and like the brat pack movies. When your frame of reference is Pretty in Pink, I can see why you like his movies. LOL

Anyway, it's a picture of Butthead on a fainting couch, with strategically placed grapes.

What the hell are you talking about? The Brat Pack has nothing to do with Brad Pitt!!!

Not my fault you are so much older than your years, and not in a good way!

Me not being cast opposite Angelina Jolie with a hot love scene is a huge casting blunder.

I liked Brad Pitt in Fight Club. Although I thought he was playing himself. "I look like you want to look, dress like you want to dress, etc"

I also think that the dislike for Leo DiCaprio has a lot to do with him going home to this every night.
