I think the voice matters as much as the look of the actor, so I think Hugh Jackman would have been the best, but Christian Bale has a voice similar to Snake and he is a very good actor.

They should also get Michael Shanks (Daniel Jackson from Stargate SG-1) for Otacon, he would really suit the role.

Affleck?

He already screw up the Jack Ryan Charactor (what were they thinking ,not using Harrison Ford) and you want him to screw snake too?

Bale wasn't my first choice, but he's a good actor, I think he'd do it well.

No ones said Ed Norton yet. I dont know if it really suits him but hes so brilliant I think he could pull anything off. How would have thought he'd do something with as much power as American History X?

Hugh Jackman would have been tha bomb though. Bale is alright I guess, he kinda reminds me of Tom Cruise (gayyyy) in some way though.

not exactly British.

To Below: If its the same then why would he say he's Welsh? He doesn't have a British accent, he has a Welsh accent.

5.4 - @the judge

I think your confusing British with English - which isn't at all uncommon to do. English, Scottish and Welsh people are all equally British - and they all have different accents. There is no "British" accent. Heck how many different English accents are there - lots! Same goes for Scotland and Wales. Saying "British" accent is like saying American accent - practically every State in America has at least one unique accent.

6 - Bale is the best choice.

He should have won an oscar for Equilibrium. (criminally overlooked because people thought it was a Matrix rip-off. It was more like 1984 and Logans Run)
The Prestige was a work of genius that sadly seemed overlooked by almost everyone.
Batman was great.
Empire of the sun was a classic.
His acting in The Machinist was legendary.

and can we pretend he wasn't in Reign of Fire

6.4 - I agree totally with you on that one P4KY B

And you know he can do that raspy voice like snake's because of Batman

I also liked him in that Dragon movie, even though he was kinda soft in it

Equilibrium was a great movie, I have got to find a copy.

Great choice for Snake, he is a great actor. I like Kurt to, but the younger generation won't really gravitate to him as snake. Hugh Jackman is a little played out to me and is not as good of an actor as Christian.In American Psycho he was craaazzyy Good.

Hope he gets it.

Literally a 'solid' choice. Can't wait for The Dark Knight. Does this mean dual roles as Liquid? I wonder who would play Ocelot?
