steve7stud 0 Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 I've always thought that Edward Norton and Daniel had similar features. I agree completely about him play DN if a movie is ever made. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 I've always thought that Edward Norton and Daniel had similar features. I agree completely about him play DN if a movie is ever made.Definitely agreed. Just do something with Ed Norton's hair and he's Daniel give or take a few things. Ed's character from the 25th Hour could be Daniel from his wilder days :-) Link to post Share on other sites
CobaltBlue 662 Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 I've always felt that they have a similar look and speak similarly. Link to post Share on other sites
Randy Reed 0 Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 I agree that Ed Norton would be great, but I just don't see anything to make a movie about. Stu Unger was a degenarate gambler who won the WSOP 3 times, all the makings of a movie, and it flopped.Somehow, watching DN talk about being a vegatarian and abiding to the philosophies of Michael Moore don't seem to cut it.

srharris22 0 Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 True Romance top 5 movie! trust me, it is not a love story. Cast is incredible, and probably has one of THE best conversations in a movie between Dennis Hopper and Christopher Walken. the rest include James Gandolfini, Christian slater, Patricia arquette, Brad Pitt, Sam Jackson, Remi from Higher learning, Balki (SP?) from Perfect strangers, Val Kilmer as elvis of course, and a few more i can't recall.as i do enjoy the burbs and big trouble in little china, not really sure how those could make anyones top 5 but it is all about opinion. And shawshank redemption is a great movie as well, just get to see it every day on TBS (back to back most of the time). "5x5 equals 25, cats crawling up trees.... F*&K"One more for ya, maybe not my top 5 but top 10 SUPERTROOPERS, movie only gets funnier the more you watch it.Memento is one of the most unique movies, i think the movie is way underrated as the filming was about the most perfect way to tell that story.

FloppyNuts 0 Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 go watch boondock saints, Amores Perros, Memento, Pulp Fiction, Swingers, Dear Hunter, just to name a few, ... Amores Perros is perhaps my favorite movie that hardly anyone else has seen. It's amazing. You're like the second person I've heard trumpet this movie, and I used to run a video store. I'd also like to recommend City of God, which like Amores Perros, is subtitled, which usually causes people to mentally put it in the bottom of the pile, but trust me, they're both a$$kickers.

Frantotti 0 Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 OK granted i was just talkin about comedy classics there. The best film of all time is One Flew Over The Cookoos nest. Link to post Share on other sites

BSUrugby240 0 Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 Its funny that this topic came up, just the other night I was watching the 2004 US Poker Championship and when it showed DN my girlfriend was like, "That guy reminds me a lot of Edward Norton, they look pretty similar and sound alike."

711Buddha 0 Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 I think its a little early to make a movie about DN's life. Its still pretty much an unwritten book. By the time we're ready for that, the guy who will play him now probably hasn't been born yet. Link to post Share on other sites
Swift_Psycho 1 Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 Yeah, I think Norton could do a pretty good job as Daniel. I also agree that "American History X" is absolutely phenomenal. Link to post Share on other sites
KDawgCometh 2 Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 OK granted i was just talkin about comedy classics there. The best film of all time is One Flew Over The Cookoos nest.that's not even Jack Nicholsen's best film, 5 easy peices is. In fact One Flew isn't even teh best 70s film, which would be a toss up between Godfather II and the French Connection Link to post Share on other sites
Vertigo 0 Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 So I'm not crazy...the first time I ever saw Daniel play, I thought wow...it is uncanny how much he looks/sounds like Edward Norton! Edward Norton is by far my favorite actor, and after watching Daniel play once or twice, he was instantly my favorite player! I wouldn't be surprised if they were secretly brothers! JK, but wow, at least now I know some people agree.And Boondock Saints rocks! :-) Link to post Share on other sites

Have you seen Y Tu Mama Tambien?.. good movie too.Oh and some people mentioned One Flew, and Shawshank, both GREAT.. the list I made above arent my my top 10 or anything, theyre just great movies that came to mind. And I forgot to agree w/ the OP... Ed Norton Is one of the best out there. Link to post Share on other sites
