    <p>There is a step down from Jeremy Renner? That's a pretty low bar to set. Also, that movie will suck. </p>

    <p>Fuck, you make one bad decision on the beers, and you never live it down... seriously, even a bit pissy that movie sucked so hard. </p>

    <p>Timothy Olyphant was awesome in the original. Why couldn't they get him back. I loved that movie</p>

    <p>I bet Timothy Olyphant wants to do a rom com. He's so fricking locked into those roles. Deadwood - you're a cop, Justified - you're a cop, The Crazies - you're a cop, Hitman - you're like a cyborg cop!</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>He'll be in the next Nicholas Sparks movie.</p>

    He's a sushi chef in The League. Pretty disciplined one though.

    <p>I know hes not Jeremy Renner. He's "shit Jeremy Renner." He looks like Jeremy Renner, acts like Jeremy Renner. Plays similar roles. But he's the guy you get when you can't afford Jerenmy Renner - hence he's "shit Jeremy Renner"</p>

    <p>Jeremy Renner is shit, that guy's the good Jeremy Renner (TBF I'm only basing that on Homeland and Starred Up but he showed more range and charisma than Renner in those two alone).</p>

    <p>Also, he's an ecstasy dealer in Go and a porn film maker in The Girl Next Door. </p>

    <p>One of the enduring tragedies in the world is that Eliza Cuthberts career has not taken off enough so I can see her in lots of movies, but equally not tanked so badly she goes the Alissa Milano / Lindsey Lohan route & does soft pron. </p>

    <p>Get Hard. I thought I was going to cringe all the way through this, but like others actually found it quite funny. Ferrell can be hit and miss but pulled this off quite nicely. "I built this company with my own bare hands... and an $8 million dollar loan from my father". Lol.</p>

    <p>The Equalizer. Denzel Washington is just a man, trying to make his way in the world. He also happens to an unstoppable, remorseless killing machine (despite having the body of your dad). Lionel from Shortland St is the bad russian who never stood a chance. </p>

    <p>Karl Urban was a badass Russian in one of the Bourne movies wasn't he?</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Its the accent, bro! "Well lookee here! This crazy Aussie feller is talkin' like a Russki! Sign him up!"</p>

    <p>think you might have the wrong fella M4L (well wrong SS character anyway?)</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Yes Urban was in the Bourne Ultimatum I think it was...</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Speaking of Bourne and the earlier dissing of Jeremy Renner, Bourne Legacy was on TV last night, saw it when I was flicking channels.</p>

    <p>Karl Urban is a badass in everything he's in. Karl Urban is the fucking man. </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Kiwis; good if you need a russian, or anyone brown for Cliff Curtis (South American? Arab? no worries, them brown folks all look the sames to us anyways). Aussies are good if you need talent-less, charisma-less action leads (I'm looking at you Jai Courtney and your mate the brickie, what's his name? Worthington?)</p>

    <p>Leonard / Lionel who gives a fuck, it was fucking Shortland St, I'm a little disgusted with myself i even got that close. </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>That Legacy movie is fucking terrbile. Even the delightful Rachel Weisz couldn't save it. </p>

    <p>Or that Hugh Jackman bloke. Yeah fucking ordinary, boring fluffybunny. How he holds the record for "Most Women Percolating In The Nether Regions From a Single Raised Eyebrow" I'll never know. Particularly as his wife looks a right munter (sure she's a lovely person).</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>At least Chris Hemsworth has a better high classical accent that Karl Urban, but besides that, Urban was fucking good in RED too and I like his work. Made a good Dredd.</p>

    <p>Cliff Curtis stars in the walking Dead spin off, however he gets a more challenging role this time, playing a Maori!.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>As to the SS reference, I only know Martin Csokas (sp) didn't play that Lionel cat as he was on SS around the time I was flatting with a bunch of chicks who watched it, so even while not paying attention, you unfortunately still picked things up sub-consciously!</p>

    <p>jesus the fish are on the chew today...</p>

    <p>Jackman is such a dude, it's impossible not to like the bloke. I wouldn't be unhappy if i looked like that Hemsworth bloke. Plus, he's a fucking great Thor. </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Urban was an awesome Dredd, good in LoTR, the best part of that awful Doom movie, not too bad in Star Trek, good in Bourne. He was in The Chronicles of Riddick too (i forgot about that). He's carved out a pretty decent career. And surprise surprise, IMDB tells me he was on Shortland St</p>

    <p>I expect Jegga has just made that note about suspected SS watchers for when they kill someone he can PM for a chat about his feelings!</p>
