James McAvoy would be good, though, I've been impressed by him in everything I've seen him do so far.<br /><br />As for reflexively referencing The Thing, that could be an interesting idea, seeing as the short story "Who Goes There" by John W. Cambell, which The Thing was based on, was written as a homage (according to the author, a "spiritual sequel") to At The Mountains of Madness.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-423050459919800481.post-64124315748060529672010-10-28T13:37:17.367-07:002010-10-28T13:37:17.367-07:00What about Kurt Russell as Lake -- an homage to Jo...What about Kurt Russell as Lake -- an homage to John Carpenter's The Thing, who included an homage to Lovecraft by giving writing credit to Frank Armitage.Umpherousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-423050459919800481.post-50764372364962352152010-10-28T10:08:21.517-07:002010-10-28T10:08:21.517-07:00Oh yeah, casting matters!

They've all proven their ability in period/costume, i.e. non-modern, pieces.<br /><br />But say... <i>[he said wickedly]</i>... why not Harrison Ford as Professor Lake, and Mark Hamill as young Gedney (the graduate student last seen on a sled with a dog)? That would at least subvert audience expectations....<br /><br />@ Arcane: <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0564215/" rel="nofollow">James McAvoy</a> played the faun Mr. Tumnus in the first new Narnia film, and the preternaturally skilled assassin-trainee in <i>Wanted</i> with Angelina Jolie and Morgan Freeman. He's also playing the young Professor Xavier in an upcoming X-Men prequel.Ravenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17974090948640572660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-423050459919800481.post-59642991639275094532010-10-28T08:14:30.845-07:002010-10-28T08:14:30.845-07:00I don't think I could sit through MoM if Cruis...I don't think I could sit through MoM if Cruise was in it.
