Just browsing IMDb. I wasn't aware of this about Deadwood.
The role of Al Swearengen was originally written for Ed O'Neill. O'Neill screen tested for the role but HBO executives did not want to cast him because of his fame as Al Bundy from Married with Children (1987).
I just couldn't imagine Ed in that role.

Battle: Los Angeles
Couldn't remember if I'd seen this before, so watched it again.
I thought it was pretty frigging good, actually. Quite gritty with the civilian deaths and such than crap like Independence Day, which just disposed of everyone in a big ball of fire.
Liked Aaron Eckhart as the troubled hero. There is a bunch of cliched bullshit in there of course, but mostly he's got enough talent to pull it off IMHO. The supporting guys are pretty good as well, including the dude playing the young Lieutenant.
3.5 out of 5 meteor showe- FUCK THOSE ARE ALIENS!

Conan the Barbarian - the Jason Momoa shitstorm
Fuck.
Fire the fight choreographer first. That was some utter shit.
I mean, you can accept that the dialogue isn't going to be great - and it would be a fucking travesty if it tried to out-do the original in this department anyway. But the fights MUST be good.
I was left with the feeling that they were trying to make a good version of the original, but decided "fuck it" halfway through to go for parody.
1.5^ plastic swords out of 5.
^ It gets plus 0.5 for occasional boobies.

I liked that, cliched as all hell but decent action scenes.

@canefan I watched Ford Fairlane again a few years back, and while its dated, I couldn't help but laugh.
The star of it has his own show , it's a bit hit and miss but he's not shy about mocking his five minutes of fame

Andrew Dice Clay? He does standup, he was to come to Auckland last year but cancelled. I guess there weren't enough people that appreciate his sense of humour
He had a recurrent guest role on Entourage where he played a fallen star standup comic. Funny -
