Best CBM Casting of All Time – Topher Grace vs. Willem DaFoe
By FavaBeans | November 13, 2009
And the winner to last week’s match up is Michelle Pfeiffer as Catwoman!
We started this game on our Message Boards over two years ago, and it’s still going! The list includes movies made up until 2007. Needless to say, there are alot of actors and actresses that have been cast in CBMs!
I decided to move this game over to the site so we can generate more interest and more votes. The game works like this – Each week 2 actors/actresses will be matched up against one another, and it’s up to you, the fans, to decide who was the better choice to play the part. At the end, the winner with the most votes moves on to the next round. A new match up will be posted every Friday and will last one week!
Continue on to learn more and vote on this week’s match up!
