Not at all - I think Spacey would be a GREAT Avon.

Carrey - I'm picturing him in "The Truman Show"... give him a chance?

Besides - got any better ideas? And what about the rest?

Vila is a small nimble thief- not a lanky bugger with a rubber face. Avon is darkly handsome, not an old git...

Avon is Kevin Spacy,

Tim Curry for Travis ?

Personally, I'd go with Brad Pitt or Steve Buchemi (whatever his name is) for Vila

Glen Close for Servalan ?

Hmm, in the sequels you could have Halle Berry as Dayna, Reese Witherspoon as Soolin, Colin Farrell as Tarrant and... oh, I don't know... Michael Gambon as Slave.
