    List an actor who you think was perfect for a specific role, and list which movie/show that role was in.

    I'll start:
    Heath Ledger in The Dark Knight

    As much as I love both Emma and Hermione (which is a freaking lot) I have to disagree. She was really great at first, but she ended up being far too beautiful XD. Hermione was supposed to have bushy hair and, until a certain point in the story, buck teeth. There were points where movie-Herms looked more like Marilyn Monroe than her book description lol, but who can seriously complain?

    The people who I thought played their roles the best were Alan Rickman as Snape and the actress who did Moaning Myrtle that I can't remember :astonished: they were flawless.

    Honestly anything Daniel Day Lewis plays he's such a great actor that I can't imagine anyone else in his roles

    Oh we should add Ian McKellan as Gandalf. Can you imagine that they first tried to get Sean Connery? He's great in his own way, but he's not our lovable wizard. XD

    I'm not sure if voice actors count, but fuck it :slight_smile:

    Kevin Conroy IS the Batman. There isn't enough time left in my life to explain how well this man just "gets" his character. At the risk of sounding blasphemous, I dare say he's a better Batman than Mark Hamil is a Joker. Wait I take it back don't kill me.

    Freddie Highmore in Bates Motel.

    Bryan Cranston in Breaking Bad. He seemed like he didn't fit at first and then he just blew me away.

    Jack Nicholson as the Joker. Yes, Heath Ledger did an amazing job as the Joker in Dark Knight, but that was because he turned in a masterful performance that nobody ever thought was possible. Jack Nick was a friggin awesome choice for the Joker. Why? Because everyone knew he was a perfect fit for the role.
