Having God almighty on his list is pretty good.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 hours ago

I'll take Tim Curry (minus the rapist, thx) or Alan Rickman, hands down.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 hours ago

It's actually Christian Bale.

Best Detective (Batman movies)
Gunslinger (Equilibrium)
Wizard (Howl's Moving Castle) Dragonslayer (Reign of Fire)
Godkiller (Thor Love and Thunder)

[–] [email protected] 27 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

Christopher Lee.

Saruman, Count Dooku, Sherlock, Rasputin and a whole army of Draculas.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 55 minutes ago

he also shed the blood of saxon men. To be more precise 4000 saxon men.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 hours ago

And a guy with an (oddly accurate little) golden gun who also has his own theme song.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Dee Bradley Baker - Every single Clone Trooper in Star Wars. Good luck, everyone.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 13 hours ago

Clankas got no chance

[–] [email protected] 24 points 16 hours ago

And a regular-looking Cumberbatch in the back that keeps saying “pingwings.”

[–] [email protected] 19 points 16 hours ago

Makoto Furukawa

He voiced a hundred anime guys I don't know shit about and saitama from one punch man

Sam and Dean Winchester killed God though, so it’s not a for-sure thing.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 18 hours ago

Tilda Swinton. The Ancient One, The White Witch, the angel Gabriel, and... maybe Alithea from Three Thousand Years of Longing if she has her Djinn wishes.

J. k Simmons: Omniman, Ketheric Thorm, Cave Johnson, and one day he’ll be rid of that menace Spider-Man! Maybe Santa will make that his Christmas present?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Maybe Santa will make that his Christmas present?

I love that I can't tell if this is a reference to Red One or to that one M&M's commercial.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 hours ago

Or Claus, he played Santa in that too

[–] [email protected] 22 points 19 hours ago

Peter Cushing.

Has a Death Star, a TARDIS, and played both Sherlock Holmes and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, so he could give himself whatever bullshit superpowers he wanted.

[–] [email protected] 43 points 22 hours ago

I'd have to go with Morgan Freeman here. That man has literally been god. And he builds some pretty nice gadgets for Batman

[–] [email protected] 85 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Four pictures of characters that David Tennant has played: The Doctor, Crowley, Scrooge McDuck, Kilgrave.

Goes back in time to mess with you, stops time to mess with you, buys your house and your car and your grandma and her dog, tells you to step on a lego.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I... I think one of those would be a lot less nice than that.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 22 hours ago (3 children)

My sibling in Nyarlathotep, have you ever had the misfortune to step on a lego?

Morgan Freeman has been God

[–] [email protected] 12 points 18 hours ago

Could we say that Jim Carrey has also? Along with The Mask, Robotnik, and maybe The Riddler for good measure, he could be pretty formidable.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago

So many times, that's a lot of gods

[–] [email protected] 27 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

Thanos, Cable, Gurney Halleck, Lt. Det. Christian "Bigfoot" Bjornsen.

My man Josh Brolin, of course!

[–] [email protected] 19 points 23 hours ago

Honourable mention to Cate Blanchette with the unlikely team up of Hela, Galadrial, Bob Dylan and Blanche DuBois.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 22 hours ago

He was also Jonah Hex.

Henry Cavill:
Superman, Sherlock Holmes, Geralt of Rivia, Wolverine.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 23 hours ago

~~Wolverine~~ Cavillrine

[–] [email protected] 57 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Arguably Keanu Reeves, between the time machine and being able to manipulate reality it'd be hard to stop him

[–] [email protected] 41 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Don't forget the insane hit man skills of John Wick

[–] [email protected] 41 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Honestly John Wick is pretty tame compared to Neo. When you don't have to be concerned with physics you can make guns do a lot

[–] [email protected] 4 points 21 hours ago

That depends if we're in the Matrix or not. Neo would just be a regular dude otherwise.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago)

But john wick is just another incarnation of the matrix where the machines put him again inside but gave him a purpose besides being a game developer.

Ian McKellen:

-Death himself (Last Action Hero)

  • Gandalf
  • Magneto
  • Iorek Byrnison

Odin, Van Helsing, Zorro, Richard Nixon, and Hannibal Lecter? - Anthony Hopkins

A pretty outrageous team IMO.

Edit: Or all the hectors from the HCU - Noel Albert Gugliemi is pretty entertaining

Brock Samson / Buzz Lightyear / Lemony Snicket = Patrick Warburton

[–] [email protected] 9 points 21 hours ago
[–] [email protected] 6 points 22 hours ago

Don't forget the Tick and that one BPRD agent in the Hellboy movie

[–] [email protected] 6 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago)

Buzz Lightyear was Tim Allen.

Edit: Neverimind I just learned that Patrick Warburton did play Buzz in the briefly running Buzz Lightyear: Star Command show from 2001

[–] [email protected] 4 points 22 hours ago

Don't forget The Tick!

Ryan Gosling from Drive and Lars and The Real Girl. They’d be unstoppable.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 day ago (7 children)

You'd really take Khan over Sherlock?
