Notable Live Action Performane Adaptation

I think Michael Chiklis and Chris Evans were perfect to be cast as The Thing and Human Torch in those two live action film adaptations of the Fantastic Four.

What actors do you think played the characters they were trying to portray from our favourite comics, cartoons, video games, books, etc. Dont say Ghylanhal from Prince Of Persia, GL.

PS I'd also like to add Shaggy, Fred and Velma were spot on in the live action Scooby-Doo films. I also liked Daphne, and while SMG's performance was great and they were pretty faithful to the original character, but obviously the only reason Daphne is like a martial artist is because SMG played Buffy.

Btw feel free to use pic comparisions if you like

Hey, nice topic!

Im gonna get back on comic superheroes again. Andrew Garfield is a really good Spider-Man. I cant believe I ever accepted Tobey Macguire as thr Web slinger.

I think Hugh Jackman makes a good Wolverine. But im not too familiar with comic wolverine just that he wears a yellow suit

He wouldn't have been my first choice for the role, but he certainly didn't do a bad job. So I don't see why I couldn't or shouldn't mention him.

Why so serious?

Ok then im gonna also add Christian Bale's performance as Batman up there for probably my favourite and a very notable performance. Bale's Wayne was perfect. Keeping in mind that Bale sorta played a similar role as Patrick Bateman in American Psycho, so its a really interesting fit and it works! His Batman was cool, especially bu TDK when Batsy's suit allowed for him to turn his head without turning the entire torso, naw mean?


I also think Heath Ledger played a really cool Joker, overall. Jim Carey was a good Riddler. And honestly, idk if Ann Hathoway was a perfect Catwoman, relating and comparing to the comic character, but I thought she looked nice as catwoman.

Robin Shou's performance in Mortal Kombat (despite it being a PWSA film), was impeccable. Also, I enjoyed Wesley Snipes as Blade, and honestly, Christopher Lambert wasn't that bad as Johnny Cage either.

Christopher Lambert was Raiden, not Johnny Cage.

Okay..so do you mean that Chris Lambert was a good Raiden or that guy you dont know played a good Johnny Cage?

Ill add Sarah Michelle Gellar as playing a perfect Buffy. Absolutely no one can seriously tell me when they picture Buffy they dont think of SMG.
