      That reminds me of how Will Smith turned down Neo in The Matrix because he thought Wild Wild West was the safer bet.

        He would have been an awful Neo. Bullet dodged for everyone.

        Honestly though, I agree with him. WWW definitely is the safer bet on paper. But safer doesn’t mean foolproof, and the risky ventures sometimes are the most profitable. Making the worse move doesn’t necessarily mean you made the incorrect one.

              You’re going to enjoy this, I think (ignore the titles of the videos, this is definitely what @maniacalmanicmania@aussie.zone was referring to, and the context makes the bit about WWW so much better:

                  It seems like my client removed the ability to edit? I can’t find it, anyway.

                  Regardless, that was entertaining. Thank you for the links.

        Yeah, but in the third act he got to fight a giant spider. Do you know anything about spiders? They’re the fiercest killers in the insect kingdom.

            They broke in, because they are the fiercest killer.

      It’s hard for me to imagine anyone else in any of the roles. They are all such perfect fits.

        Gollum should’ve been played by Nicolas Cage. With no VFX or makeup.

          Also Willem Dafoe with a bald cap could pull it off.
