You are right about Stephanie Zimbalist, but she was as close as I could come up with. Stephanie Plum is such a unique character that they might have been better off going with a complete unknown.<br /><br />While I haven't seen the movie--and, frankly, it doesn't look worth it--I think they really miscast 'Water For Elephants.' Neither Reese Witherspoon OR Robert Pattinson seem suited for the characters. I'm sure I could think of other examples of either good or bad casting, but that would require using my brain and I think it is offline right now. ;)cmkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17984250869194585666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7146226.post-16112043275276150242012-01-23T18:53:32.351-05:002012-01-23T18:53:32.351-05:00The only thing I can think of is I thought Tommy L...The only thing I can think of is I thought Tommy Lee Jones would have been perfect to play James Lee Burke's Dave Robicheaux from the series. But Alec Baldwin (can't stand him) got to play Dave in the first movie that was made, and Tommy Lee Jones finally played him in another movie (which I haven't seen yet even though I own the DVD). I'm worried that it's a stinker because I didn't hear anything about it when it came out. I didn't even know about this TLJ movie until I saw it in a video store.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7146226.post-35653613657180487942012-01-23T18:50:35.721-05:002012-01-23T18:50:35.721-05:00I saw the trailer, I hope the movie is as good as ...I saw the trailer, I hope the movie is as good as the book. I got a kick out of Grandma, I agree that Estelle Getty would have been perfect. Maybe they didn't want an "old old lady" for the role. <br /><br />Too bad they waited so long to make the movie, those people you picked would have been great. Especially Benjamin Bratt. I think Stephanie Zimbalist might have been a little too classy for the part, though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
