on Oct 20 2007 03:26 AM In reply to this comment (#1206417) Are you insinuating Will Smith is secretly a white man in a black suit? (Reply to this) |
 on Oct 20 2007 10:29 AM That's sweet that Hopkins is going to be in The Wolfman. The Burning Plain should be good to, I love Theron, and Basinger. (Reply to this) |

on May 26 2008 08:47 AM In reply to this comment (#1213823) There was a rumour a while back that Will Smith was being considered for the role of Captain America, though odds are people were getting confused about early reports of 'Hancock'. As for Batman, he'd certainly be good as the guy in the suit, but I don't think he could tone down his own loud'n'shiny presence enough to play Bruce Wayne. (Reply to this) |
