Amazing casting choices

[Vyk]

Hell freaking yes

Also, there's no better Terminator than Arnold Schwarzenegger

[metagloria]

I realize this is not a universal, or perhaps even popular, opinion...but I grew up with Jack Nicholson's Joker, and I freaking love it. His performance in that movie is a cinematic spectacle, even if maybe he wasn't the truest to the comic character.

[chionos]

The entire cast of Sherlock.

YUP

Firefly's cast, anyone?

Oh yeah, and what Crop said. Second the trout outta that.

Speaking of Sherlock,

Jeremy Brett as Sherlock Holmes

In my opinion, there was/is no one finer in the role than he.

The entire main cast of The Office. I've seen audition videos for other people before, and all of those were absolutely awful. This may kind of be biased just because those audition tapes were viewed after I'd seen the show, but I just think every actor/actress portrays their character perfectly in the show. There are some more minor characters that pop in that I'm not a fan of (like Will Ferrell), but I don't know how much of that has to do with the character itself or the actor portraying him/her.

Entire cast of Arrested Development.

Entire cast of It's Always Sunny

Michael Caine as Alfred I can agree with

Heath Ledger as Joker

Jack Nicholson as Jack from The Shining

Ethan Hawke in Sinister (i feel like I need to see more movies with him in them)

Jake Gyllenhaal in Nightcrawler (seriously, this was perfect)

Patrick Stewart in everything I've seen him in.

Robert Downey Jr as Tony Stark (I'm not a big fan the IM movies nor the character that much, but I think he portrays him very well.)

Bill Murray in Lost in Translation

I could go on, but I shall stop here for now.

Jeremy Brett as Sherlock Holmes

Yes, I love Brett and he is indeedly my Sherlock!

I wasn't a fan of Will Ferrell's character on the Office either. I think that it was due to writing. It's almost as if they didn't plan out correctly for Steve Carrell's exit, even though they knew it was happening for a long time. Dwight should've been the boss after Michael's exit, no doubt about it. I'm glad they eventually rectified it, but they needed to do it sooner.

Oh, Rainn Wilson as Dwight

[Scotty_ffgamer]

Oh, I think I should definitely mention Kyle MacLachlan as Special Agent Dale Cooper.

Anne Hathaway as Catwoman

I always felt this way about Will Ferrell's character as well. I hated the episodes he was a part of. They were weird and uncomfortable and totally not funny. I did like how they met, though.

Can I say in an Office tangent that I loved Ricky Gervais' cameo as well? Loved loved loved loved loved it.

Whether he was true to the character or not aside, I've always been a bit bothered by the fact that I really feel like he's Jack Nicholson playing Jack Nicholson. Mind you, he always seems to be playing slight variations s of the same character to me. Not to take too much away from his performance because while I don't care for it that much, it was probably the best we had in the role up to that point so it wasn't entirely unsuccessful in my eyes.

I agree with a lot of the ones people have already posted and adding:

Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter

[Foo]

J.K. Simmons as J. Jonah Jameson.

This one might be one of the most spot on casting choices of all time.
