*eyenarrows* Thank you, huh?

And I'm still undecided whether this is pure win or terrifying. Somewhere between the two, I think, which is always the best place to be.

Gotta admire everyone, especially Vinnie Jones, for being so open to making complete tits of themselves. :D

(Oh and psssst - Henry Rollins is Duke, not Destro. I'm not likely to forget Destro playing the oboe for a while.)

Whoops, thanks for the catch on the Duke/Destro typo - it's still early here. Vinnie Jones - absolutely agreed, it's so great that he's willing to do things like this. I want to talk to the person who decided to cast this the way that they did - is there a casting director credit for vid? I'm searching on the FoD page trying to find one, because that person is GENIUS.

This should have been the cast for the real film. (Except Monica Bellucci should have been the Baroness! I will maintain that to my DYING DAY!)

A partial "thank you" to you - I saw this on my FoD feed AND your LJ, so the thanks must be split evenly.

Given how often Kevin Umbricht's name comes up in those credits, I think we can safely assume that it's all his fault.

...I never realized how much Joey Kern looks like Cillian Murphy until this.

Tony Hale as Dr. Mindbender just opens all sorts of new vistas when I find myself merging him with Tobias Funke.

It goes without saying that if this were the actual cast of the film, I think I would have been interested. And then some.

Ditto. Doc reading Dostoyevsky is genius.

Oh, wow, that's rather well done. But it's some kind of weird extrapolation from film continuity, which doesn't really float my boat, BUT OH MY GOD, THERESA AND JIMMY ARE IN THERE.

Isn't it? The Jon Hamm as Lex Luthor clip is pretty cool, too.
