Jim James/Liam Neeson

[Danko71]

I noticed this resemblance before, but after watching the Phantom Menace last night, I can't get over it. I first noticed it when I saw part of Next of Kin on TV. They look exactly alike! Except Neeson's about 6'-5". Anybody else see this?

I think you might be a little crazy.  I'm not sure how to attach image files into this message or I'd illustrate this for you.  The only thing that is at all similar is Liam Neeson and Jim is that Liam has long hair in that Star Wars movie and Jim *used to* have long hair.  Look at a picture of Liam Neeson from any other movie and any picture of Jim and I think that you'll see that you're delusional.

[Danko71]

Oh, I think you're wrong. Their eyes and facial features are very similar. I'd post pictures too if I knew how. I can't look at Liam Neeson anymore without thinking of Jim. But hey, I am a little crazy, so who knows...

Danko, you're definitely not crazy--they look amazingly similar.  Especially the Neeson that is in the first new Star Wars movie.

I don't know.  I think it's mostly the hair & beard.

as far as a similarity in appearance, here is what jim james and liam neeson have going for each other:

both are male
both have brown hair
both do not look like rick moranis

both do not look like rick moranis

And what a shame.. That Rick Moranis is one handsome devil!

[Danko71]

Try to find a picture from 'Next of Kin', where he plays Patrick Swayze's backwoods (from KY, I think) buddy or cousin or something. I never saw the whole thing, but he's way ahead of the indie game, wearing one of those mesh ball caps, I believe. Neeson obviously needs facial hair to make the comparison fly. Use the force.

You know I think you have a point

[Danko71]

Justice is served. Thanks!

You know, I just talked with my girlfriend about how we both quite often think that people look like each other and then everyone thinks we're crazy; I thought I'd tell you that first. But yes, I have to agree with you, Danko. :)

Maybe it's not the way that they look, but the move that catches your eye  ;)

HAHAHA!!! Very funny, but I think you have a point, too.  I still don't see what these two have in common apart from brown hair and facial hair, a lot of people have brown hair and facial hair including me, Jesus, and Pat O'Brein.  Let's us not forget that Liam Neeson only has long hair in one movie and that it's straight and Jim's is curly (and short now).  Liam Neeson looks like an over-the-hil Irish boxer who took one too many to the nose (he's 55 years old).  I think if I started a thread about how Jim looks like Jesus we would have about the same opinions.

Well, I just thought about it: have you ever seen Jim and Liam together in the same room? Now, ain't that suspicious?  :o

VERY! I hadn't thought about it but I'll certainly keep a look out from now on ;)
