Alternative Casting game

I was playing a game the other day..or maybe it was more of a discussion.
The first person thinks of a film character, and the other person thinks of the actor/actress/celebrity who would be a mismatch in that role.
(Ie: Fran Dresher as Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz, or John Travolta as Gandalf) 
So to start
Who do you think would have been bad in the role of...Galadriel?

I think Michael Cera from "Juno" & "Superbad" may have put a nice spin on the role... especially with Jonah Hill as his loyal offsider Samwise Gamgee. Check it out:


Sam: "Come on Mr Frodo... we've not got long to go now..."
Frodo: "Do you think we'd shave a few weeks off our travel-time if we took a bus to the Black Land, my dear Sam?"
... For a totally off-the-wall Frodo choice, I'd pick Arnold Schwarzenegger:

^ "Bring it on Sauron, you p*ssy! I've got a Ring and an AK47 and I'm not afraid to use 'em."

LOL at all of the above, esp the "Olsen Twins" 
Top 3 picks for...just not "Frodo"
1.) John Goodman 2.) Tom Hanks 3.) Jeff Goldbloom
What about Robin Hood?

Robert De Niro, lol!
(Did you know Heath Ledger was originally offered the role of Spiderman, but he turned it down? Somehow I can't see that either. )
Who would make the worst... Joker?

Someone like Dame Helen Mirren. Or Meryl Streep. 
The role of Jane Austen (ie from Becoming Jane, where she was played by Anne Hathaway)
