Y'know you can't help but ask yourself What If? I think Garfield would've been sooo much better if Jim was in it, If fact all of those movies would have! or Will have been!

Jim will land the best one yet, you wait and see!
I would like to have seen him in Bewitche, if he had been in it
I would have seen it by now, eventually I will see it but he would have been the perk to the movie.

Okay, a quick comment on the Aviator: it was a different movie. I read somewhere that Chris Nolan was going to do a movie on Howard Hughes, but it would have been a different time period. So Jim still has a chance, he'll just play him twenty years down the road. Also, he was also in talks for Bewitched, which I know has been discussed before. So Bewitched was mediocre, but if Jim was in it... My major problem with Bewitched was Will Ferrel. Jim could've fixed that

Yea Jim is supposed to play the older Howard Hughes At least that is what they said on TV.

That's wonderful. Hope it's not a rumor. In the History Channel documentary on Howard Hughes, I could see his many characteristics that Jim would be the best person to bring forth, in my opinion. I so wished he could have been in the Aviator, but alas! Ofcourse Leo was good in it. But the one thing that I feel Leo didn't bring out was Hughes amiability, inspite of his reputation for being hard-nosed etc. etc. But then, people are complex and its difficult to do full justice in a depiction and Leo did his best. I do hope Jim does this, it's right up his alley.

Some of it is fun, from the exerpt below

While running day-to-day business operations, they also took great pains to follow Hughes' every bizarre whim. For example, Hughes took a liking to Baskin Robbins' banana-nut ice cream, and his aides were horror-stricken when they learned that Baskin-Robbins had eliminated the flavor. They made a special order of 350 gallons — the smallest amount the company could provide for a special order — and had it shipped from Los Angeles to Las Vegas. A few days after the order arrived, Hughes announced he'd tired of banana-nut and only wanted vanilla ice cream. For years afterwards, Hughes' aides gave free gallons of banana-nut ice cream to their friends and family.

I watched "Million Dollar Baby". I always thought Hilary was a good actress.
