Movie Role You Felt You Were Born To Play?

LCDeelite

Is there any role in a movie you have seen where you thought, "F*ck. I could have done a far better job myself. That role would have suited me to a T"? Regardless of whether you act/can act, nor not (I don't act- only da eejit!). :pac:

I've seen many films where I enviously saw myself portraying a character! Two roles that I thought were 'robbed'(!) from me were:

Badass 'Nancy' (robbed from me by the admittedly good Fairuza Balk!) in the film 'The Craft'

and

Bill Murray's character in 'Groundhog Day'.

I'm sure there are loads more, though! So.. YOUR thoughts!

Yes, I've heard. Kills men by the hundreds. And if he were here, he'd consume After Hours with fireballs from his eyes, and bolts of lightning from his arse.
