Yes! I just introduced my kids to Clue and I kept telling stories about the movie (they're a little young to watch it yet). I may watch it again myself!

Yes, maybe the most perfect cast ever.


A couple of them actually aren’t actors. Like Bubbles!


Bubbles (Andre Royo) is an actor. Snoop, the female hitman for Marlo Stanfield, wasn’t an actor.

Jon Hamm as Don Draper. All the more remarkable when you realize he wasn't type-cast...he's much goofier IRL (well, based on interviews etc).

Another well-cast movie, IMHO, is Meet Joe Black. (Random, I know.)

Elizabeth Bennett (can't recall the actress's name) and Colin Firth in BBC Pride and Prejudice.

Tobey MacGuire in Cider House Rules.

Most of the TV series Manhattan (the one about the bomb).

Rachel Brosnahan as Mrs. Maisel.

The core cast of West Wing. So crazy that Rob Lowe was originally reading for Josh...he's the perfect Sam, and Bradley Whitford is perfect as Josh.

I was going to say this...the whole show, except of course most of the characters were Maslany

I think everyone was pretty well cast in Game of Thrones. Shay was weird.

Hollywood. Once Upon a Time in America was an entirety different movie, which also had amazing casting.


+1 about the cast in Once Upon a Time in America, including James Wood who turned out to be an a$$hole in real life.
