I posted the Robert Downey Jr. picture in the genius thread.

He plays a method actor who is cast as a black man, so he gets an operation.

yeah I read that too, character actor to the nth.
downey rarely dissapoints, so it should be good.

It deserves its own thread. (y)

I wonder if Cruise and Stiller are still gearing up for that Hardy Boys movie.

Is this the one Owen Wilson was supposed to star in?

Looks like it will be very funny.

HEIRESS

yeah, I think matt mcconaughey took over his role. but they are still going to use owen's footage in a cameo or something.

Oh, okay, I thought he was the star and they replaced him with Ben Stiller which would make a very different movie.

so is owen wilson totally fucked now? i saw some commercial for some kids movie the other day that he was starring in. this can't help with his suicidal tendencies.

It was going to be a "Hardy Men" movie played for laughs.

I dunno.

lol wow. Damn it has a face book fan page. I hate facebook - so exclusive.

lmao there is this photo in the gallery of the official website where Ben Stiller looks like Solid Snake from headshot. I like the song playing on the page with all the remixes and funny ass quotes.

And you know it's crazy, in a good way, when you actually think about some like Stiller as a choice for Snake...

Audio.

07-24-2008, 07:21 PM

lol Stiller as Snake? hmm for a comedy role yeah! There will be a Metal Gear Movie in somewhere around 09-10 with some guides by Kojima and I think Hayter will be part of that but not as an actor or anything on screen. Kojima thought they guy from Lord of Rings, Viggo Mortensen, also I think even Hugh Jackman to be starred as Solid Snake.

lol I can just imagine Ben Stiller as Solid Snake with his one-liners and puns.
