»What actor should be replaced? Who is a miscast?«

I would have changed the guy who is playing Link. I don't know, he's ...
Well, off the boat for me.

Yeah, Link suxx. He never knows anything. All the time he just says: what's happening or where are they and so on.

I also liked Tank's coolness.

I'll agree that the Link character here sucked, but I personally don't believe that was the actors fault. What are the complaints I'm seeing here? Just crap about the dialog he was handed. Realistically, he did fine with what he was given. Yeah, Tank had something better about him, but that was Tank. We're talking about who is miscast here, and the Harold Perrineau Jr. portraying Link did well with the crap he was given.

So who did I vote for? Jada Pinkett Smith for Niobe. Her acting just sucked. It was like something drained all the emotion out of her character and threw it in the trash. She's just a little too cool headed. Her facial expressions remain exactly the same throughout the whole movie, wether talking about defending Zion from a quater of a million sentinals, talking to her Ex, talking to her boyfriend, or fighting guys in a nuclear power plant, she's got the same bloody expressionless face.

Additionally, if you've seen one of the Revolutions trailers you'll see and hear her saying "Give me full systems, full power" and it just sounds like absolute crap. Yeah, the dialog sucks, but her delivery sucked as well. Once again, no emotion. Considering there are probably thousands of sentinals descending upon her position at the time, she doesn't sound desperate or anything, just...well...the same.

So for me, Jada Pinkett Smith was the worst cast character. Someone with the ability to demonstrate more emotion would have been nice, considering the role. Niobe is a woman torn between two men. To me she had as much character as a door stop.

Did you know:

Niobe is the wife of Will Smith

Cas (the woman when Link comes home to meet Zee) is Laurence Fishburn's wife.

Yes.

mmmmmmmmmmmmhhhhhhhhhhhh. darn every one h8s niobe. at least shees pretty

hm...i didn't know that link's wife was laurence fishbourne's. thats neat.

and i have to agree that Jada Smith didn't do all that well either, but she is pretty. I actually thought Aaliyah was going to play as Niobe, instead of Zee. She would've done a hell of a job if she was Niobe. Shame she had to die.

Hmm... well, I think that the worst mis-casting thus far in recollection has to be Hugo Weaving as Elrond.

I realize it's not Matrix, but it does have Hugo Weaving, and I think it's a total mis-cast, and big enough to mention.

Sorry for the off-topic. But that's what I thought of first. Here's why:

Gotcha!

Hugo Weaving is an incredibly versatile actor and to even think that he was miscast as El Rond is absurd... HUGO FAN

If anyone votes for Agent Smith I will personally give them a beat down.

Woh... I'm surprised no one voted for Keanu Reeves.

I am surprised, that so many voted, that there is no miscast.

woh....

I want to give a beat down to whomever voted Trinity!!!!

It wasn't me, but they couldn't gotten someone more attractive. Trinity is hot in her little leather outfit, but her face looks like a bag of smashed assholes. Maybe Jennifer Connoly could have done better.

I voted to change nobody. If I was forced to vote, it woud have been zee. Come to think of it, I can't even place who zee is. Maybe that's why. A lesser character. Process of elimination. Nothing aginst her or her acting, but if I had to choose, it would definitly be someone with the smallest role in the film as possible cause I would not want to change a thing.

Who is zee? I recall the name but I can't think of who she is and what she did.


Ahh. ok so I did a search and figured it out.. It was links wife. Hmm, dunno if I would replace her either. Damn though decision....

Someone said she dies, I don't remember her dying.

Nope, she's alive and she will play a bigger role in Revolutions.

Neo, Morpheus, Smith, The Oracle (original) and Trinity were PERFECTLY cast. They ARE the Matrix trilogy... all those other actors don't matter.

If I had to pick one to switch though it'd be Link. I don't agree that Niobe was miscast. Her character isn't supposed to show a lot of emotion. I mean.. she'll a female captain.. she's gotta be damn tough.

Link however... has a 'baby fat' face. Meaning.. he doesn't have the proper facial muscles to expression emotion. He always looks the same. He has that normal look.. and thats all. He doesn't even look serious. They could have picked a lot better person for it.
