Why Do We Love Nathan Fillion?

You know the first thing I had ever seen him in was Saving Private Ryan (as the wrong ryan) back before I knew of him. It's odd going back now and watching that scene.
I like him as an actor, but I hate his fans.
now now, settle down fan boys and girls, let me explain.
You see, he has done a lot of good roles, but that doesn't mean he is perfect for EVERY role out there.
Whenever there is a discussion on "who should play, " someone always brings up Fillion, and all the fanboys jizz their pants.
Hell half of the fanboys go "I don't know who this character is, but Fillion would be GREAT as the role."
I have heard him be mentioned as a "good" Hawkeye, Hank Pym, Green Lantern, you name the hero and you know there is a fanboy screaming Fillions name.
And here is the ting, Fillion is no longer the guy he played in Firefly, he is older and more bulky, which means he would be better suited for Superman than the thinner more gile Hawkeye or Green Lantern.
In the end I like Fillion, he is a good actor. But he is no longer Mal, so lets keep that in mind the next time we nominate him for "Perfect for role X"
Oh and his best role was in "Two Guys and a Girl"... or maybe not, but the series brought us two great actors, that apperently can play any superhero in the world
PS: Fillion would make an excellent Wonder Woman (See two can play this game)

Yeah, he would be pretty much perfect for it but I struggle not to hate Nathan Drake as it is. I still think Nolan North should play Nathan Drake, seeing as it's his voice and motion capture anyway, he's already Nathan Drake.Super Toast said:
I don't know why it never occurred to me but I'd say you are correct. Now, clearly this calls for some sort of mega project where the two collaborate. Were that to happen, my head would almost certainly explode from surprise with such force that reality itself would be sundered.Lolth17 said:
