Why?? Part Deux

In my last entry, I decried the casting of Keanu Reeves as Bob Arctor in the film version of Philip K. Dick's novel A Scanner Darkly. The news was revealed to me via email by Old Man Standiford. In classic film-geek mode, I replied:

"*voice of officer in Lawrence of Arabia* OUTRAGEOUS"

This is from the scene when the officer walks into the Turkish hospital and finds the foul conditions there. Later, Dogger replied:

"*voice of Vizzini* INCONTHIEVABLE!"

Vizzini, as you may recall, is the rogue from The Princess Bride.

Ahhh, the joys of being a geek...
