- Charles Napier is considered overqualified after repeated wins, with his scream compared with the moment Lecter attacks him; Henry Gibson is a leading alternative despite cinephile familiarity.
- The child attempting to steal at Ray’s shop is recognized as the later Die Hard chauffeur; the first name is recalled uncertainly, so no new full identity is asserted. — Bill Simmons
- Kathleen Freeman as the Penguin is another choice. — Bill Simmons

- Henry Gibson is proposed for That Guy, with his extensive Altman history noted. — Sean Fennessey
- Michael Bowen is favored among Patton Oswalt, Thomas Jane, Veronica Hart, Cleo King, Alfred Molina, Felicity Huffman, Orlando Jones, Clark Gregg, Henry Gibson, Ricky Jay and Jim Beaver; Molina is considered too recognizable, Jones largely cut, and Gibson deserves career recognition. — Sean Fennessey
- Ricky Jay is a separate choice, also serving as narrator. — Chris Ryan

- For one host it comes down to Keir O'Donnell, whose name the host did not know, the unfortunate character in the film; but Henry Gibson, the priest, is one of the all-time those guys, from Animal House to The Long Goodbye and The Burbs, so the award goes to Gibby, which the other was thinking too.
