Gorram, FollowMal beat me to it. LOL.

So instead, I'll choose:

1. Alan Tudyk (for some reason, I want to see him play a bad guy!)
2. Paul Bettany (Chaucer, A Knight's Tale)
3. Scott Cleverdon (Pyriel, The Prophecy 3)
4. Bill Nighy (Slartybartfast, Hitchhiker's Guide)

1. Laura Fraser (Kate the Farrier, A Knight's Tale)
2. Madeline Kahn (Mrs White, Clue) - yes I know she is no longer with us...
3. Fanny Ardant (Pierrette, 8 Women)
4. Gina Torres (Zoe)

Written by Joss Whedon and Tim Burton
Directed by Brian Helgeland

That's going to be one weird movie.

I've thought of a few more names, both you and old to add to my list.

Kevin Kline (a true actors actor. Can be funny as hell and serious as cancer, and sometimes in the same flick as well)

Guy Pearce (fuck Russell Crowe. This Aussie import is a true chameleon and transform himself into anything)

Humphrey Bogart (If I could bring back from the dead a member of true Hollywood royalty from the 40's and 50's, it would have to be him. You know how on THE SOPRANOS, Tony asks "Whatever happened to Gary Cooper?" Well for me, the question is "Whatever happened to Humphrey Bogart?" He was a man's man and who wasn't a prick at all. He who wasn't too handsome or too ugly, who had range and whom both men and women could be comfortable around. Host leading men nowadays are either too pretty for their own good or meat headed bodybuilders. They don't have the balance that Bogie struck.)

Catherine Keener, Frances McDormand (two real, honest to God, legitimate actress)

And my favorite current acting couple, Peter Sarsgaard and Maggie Gyllenhall (in a perfect world, the tabloids would be constantly hounding them and not fucking Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes. Two supremely talented people who I think are perfect for each other)

And if I could wrangle them from their tv shows over the summer, I'd also go with Jason Lee and Rainn Wilson. Jason's been great since MALLRATS eleven years ago, and I'm so glad MY NAME IS EARL came along so that now everyone knows just how great of a comedic actor he is. And as for Rainn, all I gotta say is Dwight. Nuff said.

Good one, I'm proceeding with the assumption that I can raise the dead.

Nathan Fillion- He can give me funny and gravity.
Jack Black- Nothing better than Tenacious D.
Ben Stiller- I defy you not to giggle while you watch Mystery Men.
Phil Hartman- The finest commedian ever produved by SNL.

Gwenyth Paltrow- The ladies' version of Nathan.
Jessica Alba- Um, well, you know.
Summer Glau- The tops for a youngster.
Angelina Jolie- Similar to Nathan, can go both ways.

There you go. As you can see I'm exposing my preference for comedy, but with Nathan and Angelina we can at least go action/comedy.

1. Vin Deisel
2. Josh Lucas
3. Nathan Fillion
4. The guy who plays Warick Brown (can't think)

1. Rose McGowen
2. Lucy Lui
3. Morena Baccarin
4. That chick who plays Lady Heather and Nandi (Dang it, my mind ain't workin'!)

It'd have to be an action flick, chicks as bad ass as the boys. Oh, and lots of shirtless scenes. Those are a must for the men folk.

If any of you have seen a film, I think it might be called "Serenity" or something then you have seen my dream cast for a film.

You'll note that at the beginning of my post I started with the assumption that one could raise the dead. Besides, you can't leave him out, he's the tops!

Edit: After watching SNL last night I'm convinced that even deceased he's still funnier than the entire present cast.
