Super hero movie casting

[Souplex]

You know, after thinking about it a bit, Dane Cook would probably make a better Deadpool than Ryan Reynolds. I mean, don't get me wrong, I think Reynolds is a better actor hands down, but he always plays his characters more...how can I put this...'smartassedly' crazy, whereas Dane Cook's characters are usually more 'dickishly' crazy, and Deadpool's always struck me as being more, well, being more of a straight up jerk than being just smartalec-y.

Anyway, I always though that Cillian Murphy would make a pretty awesome Carnage, which is more supervillian, but yeah.

If we acknowledge Dane Cook we give him power so he can continue to make bad stand up to fund bad movies.

I still want to see Jack Black as Green Lantern. And that's the Tenacious D JB, not regular Jack Black.

Ok, I've got a dilemma for you people (hoping you've read it).
Who to cast for a Nextwave movie?

Monica 'I used to lead the avengers you know' Rambeau = Vivica Fox perhaps?
Aaron 'My robot brain needs beer' Stack = ?
Elsa 'I'm English' Bloodstone = ?
The '' Captain = Keanu Reeves in his best fitting role ever?
Tabitha 'All my super hero names sucked' Smith = Paris Hilton? You think she can go "ZOMG!"?
Dirk 'Release the drop bears' Anger = ?

Green Lantern screaming: "Giant Green Fist in tha ballz mother fucker yeah!"
Followed by the moon changing into a green hand throwing up the horns.
???

There's definately a movie in there somewhere, but I'm not sure if its Green Lantern.

Hellblazer : Damnation's Flame : Animated

John Simms as the voice of John Constantine.
Phillip Glenister as the voice of Chas.
James Earl Jones as the voice of Papa Midnite.
Al Pacino as the voice of Lucifer/Lincoln.
Chris Barrie as the voice of J.F.K.

Oooh Al Pacino and and James Earl Jones would be perfect for those I reckon.
Are you suggesting animation because a non-blonde non-english Constantine spoiled live action?

We talk of that film in the same was as Highlander 2, Judge Dredd, The Saint or The Avengers.

Nah, it's just with animation you can get away with so much more. And as was said, Sting is the archetypal John Constantine.

Jason Statham as Sinestro.

Danny Trejo [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001803/] as Lobo [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lobo_(DC_Comics)].

yes... wholly.

Third'd and Fourthed. Trejo is one of those oddballs who always seems to be a bitpart or minor villain, and yet he is a damn good actor with a very distinct style. But if ever there was a role for him, that's it.

Yeah, I could go for that!
Lobo has to be about my all-time favorite comic character and theat guy would look the part in costume...

For the people who said things about Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool.
Let me quote Wade.
'If you looked like Ryan Reynolds crossed with a Sharpei you'd understand'

Oh, and Jason Statham as everyone who has ever ran and jumped while chasing after someone.
