I'm still upset about that, but it won't matter much considering the raping they're giving the story. I'm scared for this one.

As long as Fillion gets the rights to Firefly like is being supported right now, I'll be happy.

"...he didn't begrudge Russell casting someone who is not only a very talented actor, but also someone he had worked with before."

Did they switch out Walhberg when I wasn't looking? He can play exactly one character, and that character is not charismatic in the least.

Actually, Max Payne was a shitty movie too, and not even in a fun camp way. Not as much his fault I guess, but it's not like his performance was convincing.

I like Mark Wahlberg but he isn't right for the role of Nathan Drake. I wanted Nathan Fillion to get this role.

Even though Mark Wahlberg is one of my favourite actors I think that Nathan Fillion would have suited this role better.

Because everybody knows Wahlberg is a guarantee of success. Just look at his spectacular track record. Between Max Payne, The Happening and Planet of the Apes this man is proven box office dynamite.
Exactly, the dude is a fucking credibility bomb, he can't act and he is ONLY in SHIT films.

He was a shit rapper


and he is a shit actor

Excuse me for the subtle show of ignorance, but are we talking Mark Wahlberg of Max Payne fame? God help us.

I'll wait and see if the movie is any good no point hating someone if the script they get is crap but if its good and he sucks well that's another matter

last movie i saw him in was date night and anyone who saw that movie knows the best part with him in it

Fillion would have been great, but the guy that played Sheppard (Joe Flanigan) in Stargate Atlantis would have been even better. Look at the pic, this guy is Drake.

Someone call the director!

I like Nathan Fillion. But there's a reason he's not an international star. You might hate Wahlberg but he's been good in Boogie Nights, Three Kings, The Departed, The Fighter. And okay in The Perfect Storm, I Heart Huckabees, The Italian Job, The Big Hit and The Other Guys (and shit in a number of other movies). Nathan has been in Firefly, Buffy, and ahh.... Slither? Nice guy, but not in the same class.

I have always loved Marky Mark, but this role just screams Fillion. Such a shame.

Is Wahlberg a gamer/has he played the uncharted games? I'd rather have someone who gets the character and is excited to play the role than someone who going off of just the script and a brief runthrough of the game.

Methinks Penny [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/articles/view/comics/critical-miss/7983-Critical-Miss-26] will find lots to get upset about. Or maybe that's just what he was told to say [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/articles/view/comics/critical-miss/8674-Critical-Miss-God-Emperor-of-Steam-Epilogue].
Damn, I was going to say that...

Nathan Fillion, why do you make me love you even more? ;)

Unfortunately from a media exec's point of view Fillion was in a TV show that was canceled after one season and is currently in a second tier cop show - first tier being long running series like CSI and Law and Order, don't take this as a criticism of my own of Castle, I love the show.

The fans are ruining fillion's career, he's more famous because of them than because of his own achievements. honestly, these crazy nerds cant see that they're actually hurting his chances of getting good work.

Who? The hell? Is Wahlberg?

Never heard of him.
Sounds like a made up name.
I guess Fillion does aswell :p

Yeah, I know. And you know how Drake is always muttering under his breath? So does Sheppard in Atlantis. It's uncanny!
