Jeff Chase for Ben. At least, if you want an actor that has the same shaped head. I have no idea if he can act or if they sound anything alike, but damn, look at his head.

reply

Sean Connery for Father Torque. Look at him in The Rock when he has long hair.

reply

Sean's not acting anymore. He's retired on some island.

It's the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade Balloon Monster. It's Huge, It's Deflating!

reply

I believe Clive Owen would do a nice Ben.

reply

Nice one suggesting Clive Owen. And Mark Hamill as Ripburger (hey, makeup will do)


Keaton is Batman. Jack is The Joker. Period.

reply

How about Michael Madsen for Ben? I think, he fits the part pretty good.
The voice, physical appearance...

What are you talking about? He's a reed. You push him and... and he bends.
"City Hall"

reply

Come on Hollywood. Make the movie!!

Too bad Kurt Russel is old, he would be a perfect Ben.

reply

Kurt Russellf still good if not the BEST for ben`s role. Because Ben actually looked rather older than the others.

I wanted to cast Mickey Rourke as Ben, Sarah Clarke as Maureeen, and Christopher Lloyd as Malcolm Corley.

I mean, they all ARE those characters!

reply

if Rourke were to play the role he should have wear the same mask as in sin city to look at least somewhat accurate. No i think that Rourke doesnt have that charisma anyway he loves the roles of stupid and loud or crying people while Ben is more similar to Kurt Russell.

reply

These days I think Jeff Bridges would be an awesome Ben.

reply

These days I think Jeff Bridges would be an awesome Ben.
These days he'd be a better fit for Father Torque: http://media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/58/3e/04/583e0454bdf76f2594d03e adfd3009c0.jpg

But it's funny you should say that, because I always wondered if Old Man Corley was based on Lloyd Bridges: http://www.latimes.com/includes/projects/hollywood/portraits/lloyd_bri dges.jpg

Back in the 90s I thought:

Fred Ward as Ben
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0911542/?ref_=nv_sr_1
Frank Langella as Ripburger
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001449/?ref_=tt_cl_t6
Dennis Hopper as Father Torque.
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000454/?ref_=nv_sr_2

Unfortunately Fred Ward is too old now, and obviously they can't have Dennis Hopper.
