I see your points... Stephen Colbert might not be a bad Lovelace. |

He has the smile. He should be multiple parts. Like The Polar Express. |

To be honest, Jon Stewart is flat-out funnier than Colbert, who just seems to have less experience than Stewart. Colbert's character portrayal of himself is amusing, and shows promise. |

I'll ignore the link for now, I have enough tabs open. On the special effects side, what kind of effect do you think would be appropriate for transformations? I.e. Ptolemy's form to a Peregrine Falcon (AoS) Smokey, straight transfiguration (à la Harry Potter), others... I'm somewhere in between, since I think copying HP would be bad, especially since I think it looks a little cheesy. But, so does smoky, so I don't know. Think... a transfiguration in the way of Harry Potter, crossed with the apparation effects, with smoky trails to represent the djinn's essence changing shape... I suck at describing, if it seems confusing, ask. |

They both have writers so you can't fairly judge who's funnier from the show alone. But if you compare them when they write their own stuff, like for the Emmys Colbert clearly wins. If it was a TV sitcom, Stewart would be the sane one that the show revolves around and Colbert would be the crazy one that people actually tune in to watch! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGi8jSGpr5U
Actually Colbert was on the Daily Show about year before Jon Stewart. Edit:
ooh Backstory maybe? 'Cos the guy who wrote Vanity Fair had a Makepeace in his name, and there were a few other characters who resembled real life people Edited by Luciene, Jun 16 2009, 06:50 PM.
