1. Tom Cruise as the Vampire Lestat
2. Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games franchise
3. Jeremy Renner as Jason Bourne
4. Norm Macdonald as Colonel Sanders
5. Jennifer Lawrence as Rosalyn Rosenfeld in American Hustle
6. Cody Horn in Magic Mike
7. Ben Affleck as Batman
8. Keanu Reeves as Johnathan Harker in Coppola's Dracula
9. Stockard Channing as Rizzo in Grease (They really couldn't get anyone younger? Jeez, that totally tests one's suspension of disbelief. I even thought so as a kid when I saw the movie in its first-run release at the cinema, before I ever even heard the term "suspension of disbelief." It is hard to do your due diligence as an audience member and suspend your disbelief when you've got a 35-year old playing a high school senior, even with the character being jaded beyond their tender years. The role is not so challenging that it requires an advanced skill in acting, it's not Blanche DuBois for chrissakes. Stockard Channing was not that strong of a singer and couldn't even dance.)
(UPDATE: I recently re-watched Grease and Stockard Channing is perfect is Rizzo and doesn't look any older than Dinah Manoff as Marnie. I'd like to add that I can't imagine anyone else other than Olivia Newton-John in the role of Sandy)
10. Maggie Gyllenhaal in The Dark Knight
11. Anna Paquin as Sookie Stackhouse in True Blood (Jessica Simpson was robbed!)
12. Cameron Diaz in Gangs of New York
13. Johnny Depp as Willy Wonka (shoulda been Will Ferrell)
14. Lena Dunham as Hannah Horvath in Girls (yeah, I know she wrote the show and the role is based upon herself, but still, the girl can't act. I like Busy Phillips for this)
Please offer up your additions (and arguments) in the comments.
