Four pictures of characters that David Tennant has played: The Doctor, Crowley, Scrooge McDuck, Kilgrave.

Goes back in time to mess with you, stops time to mess with you, buys your house and your car and your grandma and her dog, tells you to step on a lego.

I... I think one of those would be a lot less nice than that.

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 12 points 1 week ago (3 children)

My sibling in Nyarlathotep, have you ever had the misfortune to step on a lego?

Morgan Freeman has been God

[–] FanciestPants@lemmy.world 22 points 1 week ago

Could we say that Jim Carrey has also? Along with The Mask, Robotnik, and maybe The Riddler for good measure, he could be pretty formidable.

[–] Noodle07@lemmy.world 16 points 1 week ago

So many times, that's a lot of gods

[–] makeshiftreaper@lemmy.world 64 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Arguably Keanu Reeves, between the time machine and being able to manipulate reality it'd be hard to stop him

[–] Snailpope@lemmy.world 44 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Don't forget the insane hit man skills of John Wick

[–] makeshiftreaper@lemmy.world 47 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Honestly John Wick is pretty tame compared to Neo. When you don't have to be concerned with physics you can make guns do a lot

[–] devfuuu@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

But john wick is just another incarnation of the matrix where the machines put him again inside but gave him a purpose besides being a game developer.

I'd have to go with Morgan Freeman here. That man has literally been god. And he builds some pretty nice gadgets for Batman

[–] justOnePersistentKbinPlease@fedia.io 40 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Henry Cavill:
Superman, Sherlock Holmes, Geralt of Rivia, Wolverine.

[–] Mist101@lemmy.world 16 points 1 week ago

~~Wolverine~~ Cavillrine

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 38 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Christopher Lee.

Saruman, Count Dooku, Sherlock, Rasputin and a whole army of Draculas.

[–] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 8 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Don't forget DEATH from the Discworld series

And a guy with an (oddly accurate little) golden gun who also has his own theme song.

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

he also shed the blood of saxon men. To be more precise 4000 saxon men.

Dee Bradley Baker - Every single Clone Trooper in Star Wars. Good luck, everyone.

Clankas got no chance

[–] Contentedness@lemmy.nz 31 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Thanos, Cable, Gurney Halleck, Lt. Det. Christian "Bigfoot" Bjornsen.

My man Josh Brolin, of course!

[–] Contentedness@lemmy.nz 22 points 1 week ago

Honourable mention to Cate Blanchette with the unlikely team up of Hela, Galadrial, Bob Dylan and Blanche DuBois.

[–] LilB0kChoy@midwest.social 7 points 1 week ago

He was also Jonah Hex.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 29 points 1 week ago

And a regular-looking Cumberbatch in the back that keeps saying “pingwings.”

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 26 points 1 week ago

Peter Cushing.

Has a Death Star, a TARDIS, and played both Sherlock Holmes and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, so he could give himself whatever bullshit superpowers he wanted.

[–] No_Money_Just_Change@feddit.org 22 points 1 week ago

Makoto Furukawa

He voiced a hundred anime guys I don't know shit about and saitama from one punch man

[–] FanciestPants@lemmy.world 22 points 1 week ago

Tilda Swinton. The Ancient One, The White Witch, the angel Gabriel, and... maybe Alithea from Three Thousand Years of Longing if she has her Djinn wishes.

J. k Simmons: Omniman, Ketheric Thorm, Cave Johnson, and one day he’ll be rid of that menace Spider-Man! Maybe Santa will make that his Christmas present?

Brock Samson / Buzz Lightyear / Lemony Snicket = Patrick Warburton

Don't forget the Tick and that one BPRD agent in the Hellboy movie

[–] Dr_Box@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Buzz Lightyear was Tim Allen.

Edit: Neverimind I just learned that Patrick Warburton did play Buzz in the briefly running Buzz Lightyear: Star Command show from 2001

[–] LilB0kChoy@midwest.social 5 points 1 week ago

Don't forget The Tick!

Gonna toss in Doug Jones. If the character is in a full body suit there is a very good chance it’s him. He is an entire legion of monsters.

Odin, Van Helsing, Zorro, Richard Nixon, and Hannibal Lecter? - Anthony Hopkins

A pretty outrageous team IMO.

Edit: Or all the hectors from the HCU - Noel Albert Gugliemi is pretty entertaining

[–] Contentedness@lemmy.nz 5 points 1 week ago

Nixon is a real wildcard in this bunch!

[–] ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[–] RQG@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

Having God almighty on his list is pretty good.

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You'd really take Khan over Sherlock?

[–] NichEherVielleicht@feddit.org 5 points 1 week ago (6 children)
