Is there any actor that could replace Gman,Magnusson or that pirate-weird-looking-eye-man you meet at the Borealis in the Lost Information Mod?
Why find a look alike to someone thats not in the game we’re discussing?
So you put a sepia over the episode 2 box… so what?
Ya you already posted that picture.
but its one nice picture i say.
Little slow on the ooptake.
cover is wrong. There was never an EA logo at the boxes of the games from Valve

Morgan Freeman can’t work for Eli because Eli’s voice is slurred, and Morgan Freeman is too well-spoken, too clear in his speech. Freeman looks right, but can’t pull off the character vocally, which is just as important.
Christopher Walken can’t work for the G-Man because the GMan has a different speech pattern, while Walken is just heavily accented. Walken’s voice, while strange, does not work for the GMan.
Sean Connery is too old for Breen, and will not come out of retirement.
Excuse me? What moron was just dissing Escape from City 17? Are you even aware of the level of effects prowess that was pulled off there? Not to mention perfect use of film locations.
Please, these guys used flawless camera tracking, first-rate compositing and jaw-dropping particle and simulation effects to pull off the money shots. Not to mention the seamless object tracking used to give the Metrocops their helmets, and in part 2, for Headcrabs on the zombies. I don’t know who you’re trying to fool, it was perfect execution of location, costume and special effects that in the end had the precise vibe of Episode 1. Valve loved it, and even brought them on for something, and who the Hell are YOU to second guess Valve?
^You trollin’.
Jeff Goldblum as Arne Magnusson.
Yea same here. What is this? A troll BBQ thread?
How much longer will it take for people to realize I grabbed it from Google then shopped Schwarzenegger on it?
Get to da choppa!
Guys, you got the Call of Duty movie to go first…
also, the Halflife film should defenatly be a musical … Imagine it…
“OH NO! OH NO!, THE MASS SPECTROMETER WONT TURN OFF!
OH NO! OH NO! ITS OVERLOADING, GORDON RUN!”
Erm… no!
Having the same hair and facial hair as someone does not mean to look like him. Some people just can’t understand it.
Nice list, but I would really hate for Michelle Rodriguez to play Alyx. She’s too…I dunno. Angry, I guess. Alyx is an upbeat woman. Maybe Rosario Dawson instead. Bill Nighy is strange enough to be Gman, and Robert Patrick is government enough, so I think either one would work. Also, Hugh Laurie looks plenty like Gordon, so he could play him (unless he has to speak, couldn’t imagine his voice for Gordon). Robert Guillaume should be Eli, he looks and (perfectly) sounds the part, although the man is now in his 80’s so time could be a factor with him.
