They casted the same guy thrice!

Is it just me or do...

1. David Warner
2. Tchéky Karyo
3. Jürgen Prochnow

... look exactly the same? I'll admit I wasn't paying much attention while watching this, but come on! Maybe they do in the game(s) too. Haven't played them.

When #1 first appeared I was like "Okay there's Jürgen Prochnow..." (since I knew he would be in it).

Then when #2 appeared I went "Oh okay, so there he is! I wonder who that other guy was..."

When #3 appeared I got REALLY confused! "So there's the admiral guy again! Damn he looks like Jürgen Prochnow! But what's he doing there? Wait, what ship is this? What am I missing? Ohhh, it has to be that other guy (#2). So he's got a uniform to wear. That's nice."

By now they started talking.

"What? Why doesn't he know him all of a sudden?? (#2 knowing the kid) What's going on!"

... and then I came here.

Yes, I'm a moron, I know. ;)

I don't think they look anything alike. And what's more one has an english accent, another french and the other a German accent.

They don't look anything alike, seriously. ;)

Lol, nice tag - I just saw the episode it's from like two days ago. I love it when I read a tag I recognise knowing that most people who read it probably have no idea where it came from. I actually probably do it myself all the time! lol

Go to the loo, 'cause all the *beep*'s coming out your mouth instead of your a-hole...

I didn't have any confusion with Warner, but there was a time about half way through the movie where I was like "Wait, why is this guy Pro-Pilgrim (Karyo) one minute and Anti-Pilgrim (Prochnow) the next?".

'Cause there's thunder in your heart... every move is like lightning!
