Reply #29: I mostly like 'em all, especially George.

He was going to be my choice for George. Matthew Broderick is my second choice. For a younger option, I would like to suggest Toby Maguire. I think he'd be especially fitting if it were set during the same time period as the original. He can pull of that 1930's look better than anyone in his age group, IMO. He also does the "Mr. Nice Guy" so well.

I am not too keen on Teri Hatcher playing Mary, however. And, not because she blamed George for causing all of her psychological issues because he dumped her. I just can't see it. Perhaps Demi Moore or Renee Zellweger would be better. Or, switch roles with Lauren Holly. If George was played by Toby instead of George, I'd suggest Anne Hathaway or maybe Claire Danes, or even Kirsten Dunst.

I really like the suggestion of Morgan Freeman as Clarence. Or, Christopher Lloyd.
