X-Men Origins: Wolverine casting spoiler



Gambit! Taylor Kitsch as Gambit? I think my brain may have just melted. Gambit is probably my second favorite character in the comics at this point (behind Beast who has pretty much always been my favorite, and despite the fact I thoroughly hate the Gambit/Rogue relationship), and Taylor Kitsch is one of the hottest thing to ever hot. The only thing I would enjoy more would be to see Steven Strait in another mutant role. (Dude, Strait as Warren Peace was beyond hot. And between Strait and Kitsch in The Covenant, my brain did melt.)

How exciting! I want new X-Men movies now, not next year.

I agree. Whoa.
I thought Steven Strait was hot as Warren Peace, too,and then I felt bad because he's a child. Feh, who cares.

Yeah, I pretty much try to ignore such things, because I am also old and would not be able to lust after any current characters.

Though, I'll admit, now that everyone is saying that that Shia LeBouf kid is going to be the new hot action star, a la Harrison Ford, I just don't see it. Why? He's a baby, people! And not at all action adventure hot.

I need to go look at pictures of Vin Diesel and Billy Wirth to make myself feel better.

Though, when I think about all these young kids, I also have to think about the fact that they're getting older. Eek.

oh that is exciting. mmm Gambit. though the accent?... oh I don't care. it's a very sexy plan. also Sabretooth played by Liev Schreiber is kind of fascinating.

Yeah, I'm worried about the accent. Maybe the hotness will cover any mistakes. After all, I managed to get behind the movie Colossus, who had no accent, for some reason, but was extra super hot.

[deifire]

Oh, nice! If he can do an even halfway decent accent, it's perfect.

Yeah, I'm worried about the accent. Maybe the hotness will cover any mistakes, a la movie Colossus who had no accent but extra hotness.

I was hoping for Josh Halloway, but this is an OK 2nd choice *L*

[lady-nebula.livejournal.com]

er... Holloway. Can't spell tonight.

[escritoireazul.livejournal.com]

That's the guy from Lost, right? Yeah, I remember a few years ago when someone did an analysis of why he'd make a great Gambit. I agreed back then, the pictures were uncannily similar, and very hot.

REMY!! I am both afraid and excited by this.

[escritoireazul.livejournal.com]

I know! He's a character who could go wrong so easily, and become a huge joke (exploding cards? There is much potential for stupidity there) but I have hope.

Doesn't Gambit have a really thick accent? (Or does my fanfic reading deceive me?) I must say I'm a bit scared about the accent. They better show some abs. TK's got such wonderful abs.

[escritoireazul.livejournal.com]

Yeah, he does. I'm hoping the hotness will cover any accent mistakes, because TK does have gorgeous abs and is very hot. I managed to overlook Colossus's lack of an accent in favor of the super hotness, so I have hope.
