I Still Suck At Casting

one of the topics of conversation that came up on saturday while i was hanging out with my friend (aimee) is who would play her signficant other (jim) in the movie about all of us.

jim is a great guy. of course, i have to say that because jim could whup my butt simply using one finger (he takes martial arts). seriously though, he is great and i'm glad he's with aimee. plus, what is there not to like about a guy who loves video games (in paticular... city of heroes)... and dungeons and dragons... all staples of geekdom.

anyway, i still suck at casting. for my choice, however, i decided to go with leonard roberts of heroes fame. i'm sure jim would love the reference to a television superhero as well... it's part of the fraternity of geekdom. (for anyone curious, leonard roberts was also in the movie "drumline". the reason i bring that movie reference up is because karen at one time really wanted to watch drumline... which we did... and like most movies karen wants me to watch with her... they are hardly ever good... like kirk cameron's "fireproof"...)

(pictured below is leonard roberts as jim.)


leonard roberts, by the way, also played a character on the greatest show ever: buffy the vampire slayer. he doesn't appear until season four though. hmm... i wonder if i'm starting to see a trend in my casting choices...
