Mistborn Fantasy Cast

Alright!  It is about time I put together a fantasy cast for Mistborn.  It would be near as detailed as my Wheel of Time cast but it will still be fun!  I will possibly add/change things frequently as I think about this more.

Vin - This was not a tough choice.  Ellen Page has been floated around as a potential for Vin ever since the book came out and I have never thought of anybody else to play her.  Ellen would do an excellent job.

Elend - I struggled to choose this character.  Elend is my favorite character in the books and I had a few people in mind.  Eventually I chose Freddie Highmore although he might be too old now to pull it off.

Kelsier - Again, this is someone that many people have talked about for playing Kelsier.  Nathan Fillion is a great choice.  Kelsier is a fun-loving, go with the flow type of guy and sort of eccentric.  Nathan Fillion fits this bill perfectly.  I would be open to other choices, but I am all for this happening.

Kelsier - I know a lot of people are going to be haters and I'm generally not a big Tom Cruise fan but I just think he could pull off Kelsier.  Bouncing from serious to spontaneous with a touch of crazy.  I just think he could pull it off well.

Marsh - I am definitely open to different suggestions on Marsh but I think that Christopher Eccleston could pull it off.

Breeze - Perfect.  Just take a look at his role in MI3 to see his pompous attitude. Phillip Seymour Hoffman is a great choice to play Breeze.

Clubs - I was thinking Jason Statham could play either Ham or Clubs but eventually I settled on Clubs because I think the personality matches better.

Spook - Honestly, I don't know if he could pull it off but I always imagined Spook kind of like this picture of Logan Lermon.  Again, kind of unsure about this one but I'm gonna stick with it for now.

Underworld Awakening

Kate Beckinsale + vampires = yes. The fourth installment of the Underworld saga was violently great. I would probably give it about an 8.

This fourth movie follows up where the second one left off. The humans have finally caught on to the fact that there are lycans and vampires around them and have "purged" what they could. I thought this was a great twist because I've always wondered what would happen if humans caught on to the supernatural things going on around them in a lot of movies. The lycans and vampires were treated like a zombie outbreak or something and I thought it was fantastic.

For those of you who don't like violence stay away. It is by far the most bloody and violent movie out of the 4. There is one part where Selene breaks a guy's arm and the bone comes out of his arm. It says the F word twice but there is no nudity in this one (I think there was in the 2nd one).

Overall it was my favorite Underworld movie. It moved a lot faster than any of the other three and it wasn't boring like the 2nd movie. It was left pretty open so it is possible that another Underworld might be on the way in the next few years. Hey, I'll take Kate Beckinsale over Kristen Stewart as a hot vampire any day.
