We could list classic characters from classic movies all day...let's go a bit more obscure, at least with a few of these...
- Rachel Weisz as Evelyn in The Mummy (she actually makes Brendan Fraser tolerable)
- Tom Hanks as Viktor in The Terminal (the movie...not so good...but Hanks' performance rivals what he did in Castaway)
- Ajay Naidu as Samir in Office Space (Lumbergh gets all the pub, but Samir was awesome)
- Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal - Owen Wilson as Alex Scott in I Spy (underrated movie, and Wilson is perfect for his role)
And can't leave out!
- Damian Lewis (Maj. Winters), Frank John Hughes (Sgt. Guarnere), and Neal McDonough (1st Lt. Compton) from Band of Brothers (best thing you will ever see on a television!)
- Damian Lewis (Maj. Winters), Frank John Hughes (Sgt. Guarnere), and Neal McDonough (1st Lt. Compton) from Band of Brothers (best thing you will ever see on a television!)
I'll second that - def 1st rate!!! And by strange coincidence, I'm sitting here in my Band of Brothers t-shirt while typing this - deja vu!!!
