Sounds like a wrestler to me. So I go with "Kane" who has some acting experience in "See No Evil" and who's apparently really big. No idea what his voice might sound like though.

Ah, Kane. I remember when he was Isaac Yankem DDS. He's a good choice. I, too, went with a wrestler who's also been in movies ("The Longest Yard" and the upcoming "Get Smart") and an even bigger freak: Dalip Singh.

Works for me. I'm actually looking forward to seeing Kung Fu Panda, though I'll probably wait until it comes out on DVD.

An interesting choice. I thought Giammatti would have made a pretty good Doc Ock, and he and Appendage Man do have that multiple-limbed thing in common....

Someone, perhaps Ian, suggested Kelsey Grammar as the voice actor for Brass Monkey, which sounds pretty spot on.

Another good choice, and after this summer she'll have experience acting with people who wear goofy outfits.

I had suggested Kate Winslet before. She's a talented actress (though I've never seen her in a comedy) but has the right build and could certainly pull off the faux aristocracy schtick Beth's got going:
