    Panthro: Samuel L Jackson. I can't picture anyone else taking that role.

    Actually, I was thinking Billy Blanks, Mr. Tae Bo. He's bald, has a martial arts background, and is in decent shape. If only he were a better actor and believe me he has tried to act before (shudders).

    The next best choice would be Wesley Snipes or maybe Michael Clarke Duncan.

    Not sure if anyone had posted this but this fake trailer was great.

    Vin Diesel would make a fine panthro. Brad Pitt as Lion-O is inspired.

    I'd make Mumm-Ra completely CGI and have him voiced by Mark Hamill.

    Lion-O; Heath Ledger (RIP)

    Tigra; Jude Law

    Cheetara; Penelope Cruz would be yummy in those tights but I doubt she would manage much of a fight choreography. Milla Jovovich?

    Panthro; Michael Jai White

    Wilykat; can't think of any good candidate

    Wilykit; see above

    Jaga; Don't remember character

    The villians;

    Mumm-ra; Keith David (voice)

    Slithe; Danny Devito (seconded)

    Monkian; Ray Park

    Jackalman; Johnny Depp

    Billy [expletive deleted] Blanks?

    You sadist! That would be like casting JC Van Damn... in any role.

    Kind of what I was thinking.
