I want to make it very clear that I'm aware Ken Watanabe is Japanese and Michelle Yeoh is Malaysian-Chinese. That's why I changed "Saito" to "Teo" - which is a Malaysian-Chinese name that sounds vaguely like Saito. I chose 90s!Erik Balfour because of his dark, mysterious sultriness and the way he looks like he could turn evil at any moment. Plus, I think Erik/Amber would be so hot.
Eames is Christina Hendricks because even though she's a redhead I can't think of anyone else with the plush, overt sexuality that Tom Hardy possesses combined with the sly, craftiness of Eames. Plus, I think Christina/Michelle Monaghan would be so hot. XD
