McDowell's defining roles vary: A Clockwork Orange, Terrence from Entourage, and a mix-up with Jeremy Irons in Die Hard 3.
Pick: Cam Gigandet as Micah, remembered as the outstanding bully in Never Back Down goading a fight at a party. — Shea Serrano
Gigandet is always one of the Twilight guys and a that guy in Twilight; the first Twilight is recommended to Juliet. — Amanda Dobbins
Gigandet is also Volcheck from The O.C., who leads to Marissa's death in season three; it is good to have a new generation of that guys rather than a famous name like McDowell.
Asked if all pick Cam, one says yes; another instead picks Dan Byrd as Brandon, recognized from the Chad Michael Murray Cinderella remake and many aughts roles.
Sidebar: The Duff is praised, including Mae Whitman and the monster-voice scene.
Lawrence probably could not hit the right frequencies: she is so at ease that high-school struggles would be unbelievable.
Insults roll off Stone, whereas with Lawrence a piece penetrates her shell, making the movie less fun and adding guilt.
Stone does goofy convincingly via physical comedy, whereas Lawrence's goofy can feel sloppy or like a regal person slumming it.
Some roles are for one and not the other; the hosts agree Stone could have done Silver Linings Playbook and Lawrence Crazy Stupid Love, but not Lawrence in La La Land, though she dances in Silver Linings.
Stone's knowing performativeness suits the numbers and webcam here and La La Land, while Lawrence is more instinctive and naturalistic; Hunger Games is the Lawrence role Stone could not do.
X-Men is another superhero role only Lawrence fits; Lawrence could maybe be Gwen Stacy, but Stone could not be in the X-Men new class.
