I almost always do. Right now I'm reading "A Long Way Down" by Nick Hornby, the story of four people from different walks of life who meet one New Year's Eve when they are all independently about to jump off a building. They then forge a friendship/pact and decided to keep meeting. I checked out if a movie is in the works, and sure enough IMDB reports that it is projected to be released in 2013.
I had casted Avril Lavigne as Jess, the foul mouthed, street savy teenager. I don't recognize the girl they chose, but he looks about right. Because it's set in England and Toni Collette always seems to play the roles of mousey, shy, housewife types, it's no wonder that the movie casted the same actress as me for the role of Maureen, the middle-aged woman with a severely disabled son.
Anyone else ever cast flicks like this? Any examples? Also, how come there were no comments on my last post? Was it because I didn't post in so long or did it just suck?
*Yes I know the font changed midway through this post. I tried everything I could think of and couldn't get it to straighten out. Screw it. It's not like anyone pays me to update this thing.

I don't think Toni Collette will ever play a better role than Muriel in Muriel's Wedding. She's not pretty enough to get a leading part in a Hollywood movie.
Gorilla: That's why I knew she was a sure thing to play the role of the mousey mother of the disabled kid. She's perfected that role.
