    These are from my nephew and he wants feedback. how do these casting choices sound to everybody?

    1 David Boreanez as Hal Jordan Green Lantern
    2 Megan Fox as Donna Troy Wondergirl
    3 Mark Paul Gosselaar as The Riddler
    4 Eric Dane as Oliver Queen Green Arrow
    5 Dylan Bruno as Henry Pym Giantman
    6 Chuck Norris as Wildcat
    7 Jaime Kaler as Barry Allen Flash
    8 Chris Noth as Hawkman
    9 Emmy Rossum as Scarlet Witch
    10 Sophia Myles as Harley Quinn
    11 Toby Keith as Thor
    12 Jason Alexander as The Penguin
    13 David Tennant as Mad Mod

    >12 Jason Alexander as The Penguin

    HAW! That would be PERFECT! And I never would have thought of it.

    >13 David Tennant as Mad Mod

    That's an odd choice.... but it might be doable.

    I know it goes against conventional thinking; but I think I"d prefer taking someone pretty much unknown and put them in the role. THat way folks aren't distracted by the star. "Hey, look! It's the Rock playing Wonder Woman!"

      11 Toby Keith as Thor
      Oh man, I just got this mental image in my head:
      "Ver-i-ly, the Odinson dun put a boot in thy arse, oh enemy of Midgard!"

      Some of the names I'm unfamiliar with, but I could definitely go with Fox as Wondergirl or even Wonder Woman. Boreanez as GL isn't bad either. After all, he voiced him in New Frontier.

        Well, Thor has taken up residence in Oklahoma. Some of our mannerisms are bound to rub of on him and Toby would portray that aspect well.

                Some good choices. i would be all for Boranaz as Hal Jordan. After his turn in New Frontier, I thought he would be perfect for a live action Hal, as well.

                  I dont know. If this Cher thing holds out to be true, I think we will be seeing a new trend in casting. Just as the popularity of Dark Knight has caused DC/Warner to go dark with all its films, Chers turn at Catwoman might cause them to go geezer!

                  just think.

                  Adam West can play Batman again.
                  Tim Conway as Robin
                  Ed McMahon as Superman ("Up, up and a HAY-OOOO")
                  Bea Arthur as Wonder Woman...........Oops...went too far. gut churning, eyes glossing over...UURRP!

                    1 David Boreanez as Hal Jordan Green Lantern
                    Yeah...I could totally see this.

                    2 Megan Fox as Donna Troy Wondergirl
                    I always imagined her as more the Starfire mold, but hey, anything that get her into skintight spandex is fine by me

                    3 Mark Paul Gosselaar as The Riddler
                    I'm actually a Zak Morris fan. Not sure about the riddler though. He sure does resemble the version int "The Batman"

                    4 Eric Dane as Oliver Queen Green Arrow
                    I was watching some crap on Tv Guide channel the other night that had him on it. I kept thinking "geez that dude looks like Oliver Queen."

                    5 Dylan Bruno as Henry Pym Giantman
                    UNfamiliar with the actor.

                    6 Chuck Norris as Wildcat
                    I sheepishly admit this one makes me kinda smile. Not sure I could watch it(Norris can't act it all), but it is pretty clever

                    7 Jaime Kaler as Barry Allen Flash
                    Looked him up on IMDB. Ringer for Allen. Just never have seen him act

                    8 Chris Noth as Hawkman
                    I get it, just not sure how he would look shirtless. Put him on the 300 workout plan.

                    9 Emmy Rossum as Scarlet Witch
                    Way younger than I imagine Wanda being

                    10 Sophia Myles as Harley Quinn
                    Hmm...only seen her in Tristan and Isolde. Could definitely see her as Poison Ivy based on that performance.

                    11 Toby Keith as Thor
                    Your nephew totally had me til this one. To quote Will Smith, "No no way, uh uh, forget it." And yes, I would rather see Will Smith play Thor than Toby Keith

                    12 Jason Alexander as The Penguin
                    I hear this one alot. I don't get it. I just don't

                    13 David Tennant as Mad Mod
                    More familiar with Tennant than Mad Mod. I almost expect him to show up in the Nolan Bat Franchise sooner or later.

                    14 Vincent D'Onofrio as Ganondorf from the Zelda games
                    Ganondorf is the pig faced guy, right? Then it's perfect casting.
                    Of all the souls I have encountered his was the most...human.

                      Really not trying to make fun here, but the Keith as Thor thing had me thinking? What old country singer could play his daddy Odin?

                        Toby Keith should disappear and never be heard from, ever, ever, ever again. That would make me oh so happy. Of the few musicians I can't stand, he's the one I dislike the most intensely.
                        “As human beings we all want to be happy and free from misery… we have learned that the key to happiness is inner peace. The greatest obstacles to inner peace are disturbing emotions such as anger, attachment, fear and suspicion, while love and compassion and a sense of universal responsibility are the sources of peace and happiness.” - The Dalai Lama
