The Barry Allen/Flash Casting Thread - Part 2

[harryoscop]

Aaron Paul is too old, too short and not slim enough to play The Flash.

 

[Rowsdower!]

Armie Hammer for Aaron Paul.

Aaron Paul is too old, too short and not slim enough to play The Flash.

Too old? I dont think so. He looks younger than he is and he's not old anyway. Not slim enough? He's a lean guy, if he needs to get in shape, slim down or add muscle...that's what actors do before they play a character. You dont worry about that stuff when casting.

What I meant was, I want a guy that has the tall skinny body type naturally.

Aaron Paul isn't old? he's 36! while that isn't exactly "old" old, it's too old for The Flash.

 

[Fallen Angel]

Damn it don't mention Aaron Paul. LEVITIKUZ is around here somewhere.

 

[LEVITIKUZ]

Did someone say Aaron Paul?

Changed my mind. Want Seth MacFarlane for Flash instead.

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

How long are you going to run with this joke?

 

[Masone]

How long are you going to run with this joke?

It's a Michael Keaton redux.

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

No, it's actually nothing like Keaton.

Aaron Paul is too old, too short and not slim enough to play The Flash.

How is Aaron old?

 

[Rodrigo90]

And Amy Adams is too old....but it doesn't stop her playing Lois and a good one at that.

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

Amy Adams is too old for what? To play a reporter?

I don't agree with the Paul is too comments, I'm just not very familiar with his work. I've seen him in some stuff but not Breaking Bad yet.

 

[Rodrigo90]

Too old for sequels

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

I think that's ******** but you are entitled to your opinion.

If a male actor the same age isn't too old for sequels than a female actor isn't. I have to admit Affleck has gotten **** over his age so maybe ageism is becoming more gender blind? Yeah...it's still not a good thing and Adams has still gotten it worse.

 

[Rodrigo90]

But do you not wonder what Amy's going to look like in a few years time? She might look as young as ever, because she doesn't look 40.

In a few short years though, what if she ends up looking like Liz Taylor in the latter!

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

Do you wonder what male actors will look like over time?

 

[Rodrigo90]

I have with every James Bond actor.

But it's worse for females. They're meant to have some level of eye candy for the teen fanboys, which there is more of

You do see people tearing a lot more into women for how old they look than the men.

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

I'd say Hollywood better start thinking more about women than teen boys if they know what's good for them. Teen fanboys would rather play their murder/war simulators er I mean FPS games.

 

[Rodrigo90]

Then how will Megan Fox ever get a job?

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

Should I continue the joke or kinda defend Megan Fox? Decisions, decisions.

 

[Rodrigo90]

Defend her...

Somebody has to
