FAVORITE CAST OF 2001

[Antonio]

If there was a new Oscar category created for BEST CAST, which 2001 film would you vote for? My choice(s):

a tie between

THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS: Gene Hackman, Anjelica Huston, Ben Stiller, Gwyneth Paltrow, Luke Wilson, Owen Wilson, Danny Glover, Bill Murray, Seymour Cassel, Kumar Pallana, Grant Rosenmeyer and Jonah Meyerson.

and

THE PLEDGE: Jack Nicholson, Patricia Clarkson, Benicio Del Toro, Dale Dickey, Aaron Eckhart, Costas Mandylor, Helen Mirren, Tom Noonan, Michael O’Keefe, Robin Wright Penn, Vanessa Redgrave, Pauline Roberts, Mickey Rourke, Sam Shepard, Lois Smith and Harry Dean Stanton.

Ocean's 11 contained almost every big star. Lord of the Rings was the best casted film. Everyone was perfect for the parts.

I would say its a close call between The Royal Tennenbaums and The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. Best in Show would've won last year!

[ColinM]

My nominees would be:

Black Hawk Down (Josh Hartnett, Eric Bana, Ewan McGregor, Tom Sizemore, Sam Shepard)

The Fellowship of the Ring (Sean Astin, Sean Bean, Cate Blanchett, Orlando Bloom, Billy Boyd, Ian Holm, Christopher Lee, Ian McKellen, Dominic Monaghan, Viggo Mortensen, John Rhys-Davies, Andy Serkis, Liv Tyler, Hugo Weaving, Elijah Wood)

Moulin Rouge (Nicole Kidman, Ewan McGregor, Jim Broadbent, John Leguizamo, Richard Roxburgh)

Ocean's Eleven (George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Andy Garcia, Don Cheadle, Julia Roberts)

The Royal Tenenbaums (Gene Hackman, Anjelica Huston, Ben Stiller, Gweneth Paltrow, Luke Wilson, Owen Wilson, Danny Glover, Bill Murray)

I have a 3 way tie for Best Cast of 2001.

Oceans 11- George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Andy Garcia, Carl Reiner, Elliott Gould, Don Cheadle, Julia Roberts, Edward Jemison, Bernie Mac, Matt Damon, Shaobo Qin, Scott Caan, Casey Affleck, Angie Dickinson, Topher Grace, Shane West, Holly Marie Combs, Barry Watson, Joshua Jackson, Wayne Newton

The Shipping News- Kevin Spacey, Gordon Pinsent, Julianne Moore, Dame Judi Dench, Cate Blanchett, Jason Behr, Scott Glenn, Rhys Ifans, Pete Postlethwaite

The Royal Tenenbaums- Gene Hackman, Gwyneth Paltrow, Danny Glover, Luke Wilson, Anjelica Huston, Kumar Pallana, Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson, Bill Murray

[Jasonite]

Oh, I think the Score easily wins out here:

Marlon Brando
Robert DeNiro
Ed Norton
plus you've got Angela Bassett, who's probably the best black actress I've seen.

I'd say Oceans-11 is probably a close second.

The Royal Tenenbaums and Oceans 11

[ColinM]

I think FAVORITE CAST should have been one of the Golden Schmoes award categories. Well, maybe next year...

[Roswell]

The Score might have the best actors all around,but i hardly think they deserve oscars for their respective perfomances in that film.

[Bartleby]

The best cast of 2001 was Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, no question about it.

[Scarface989]

Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back
The Royal Tenenbaums
those 2 had the best casts by far IMO

[The Other]

I agree with most of the ones that were mentioned. I would also like to add:

VANILLA SKY (Tom Cruise, Penelope Cruz, Cameron Diaz, Jason Lee, Kurt Russell)

[Strider]

Here are my Top 5:

1.The Fellowship of the Ring - Elijah Wood, Ian McKellan, Viggo Mortensen, Liv Tyler, Sean Astin, Cate Blanchett, John Rhys-Davies, Orlando Bloom, Dominic Monaghan, Billy Boyd, Hugo Weaving, Ian Holm, Sean Bean, & Andy Serkis.

2.The Royal Tenenbaums - Gene Hackman, Anjelica Huston, Ben Stiller, Gwyneth Paltrow, Luke Wilson, Owen Wilson, Danny Glover, & Bill Murray.
