So, Daphne Zuniga or Nicolette Sheridan?


In terms of just "a piece"? Yeah, tough call!

But in terms of the whole person concept, it's obvious. Nicolette resembled the stereotypical Southern California blonde girl; shallow and two-dimensional at best! I really loved Daphne and even in the beginning could see past her alleged snobbiness and uptightness in the beginning.

Whole point of the movie is to have Cusack (and the viewers) feel that Zuniga was the right choice, but to make that happen they had to give Sheridan less personality, intelligence and non-looks appeal than an actual Barbie Doll.

Ain't always so clear in real life.

Personally I think Daphne is more attractive by any measure.

I may be in the minority with this one, but I never found Nicolette to be all that in this movie. Don't get me wrong, she looked good and scoring with her would be sweet. However, I don't think she would be worth the trip at all. The stereotypical southern Cali blonde? I dunno... I usually picture those blondes with some more meat on them. 😁 But yeah, I find Daphne to be the far more attractive babe (better body and overall features).

Daphne Zuniga; nothing against Nicolette Sheridan, but I think I'd take Zuniga's character in 1986's "Modern Girls" (hey, I like that film:-) over anything Sheridan has done, and Zugina in any other aspect after that.
