Crappy Lookalikes Part 2

   

For those of you who missed the first edition of Crappy Lookalikes, you missed one hell of a post. Crappy Lookalikes is a feature where I compare Serie A players/Italian Internationals to famous peoples/animals/plants that they look like. Without further ado, here’s part two (hell yeah I made that rhyme on purpose):

Pair #1: Francesco Totti (Roma Legend)

Bear Grylls of Man vs Wild fame

Huge props to asem for first pointing this out in the comments section of Part 1. They really do look like they could be long lost brothers. But I think asem put it best:

“one became one of the best fútbol players ever and the other stars in a fraudulent TV Show”

Which just goes to show you kiddies, that no matter who or what you look like, integrity is still important.

Pair #2: Adrian Mutu (Fiorentina Striker)

Josh Hartnett

I noticed this while I was watching 30 Days of Night a few nights ago. It was pretty cool to watch the movie and imagine that it was Mutu out there, kicking vampire ass. I admit, it’s a bit of a stretch, but there’s still some resemblance. Mostly the eyes and the nose region. And yes, I do feel kinda weird staring at guys faces to look for resemblances, but that just goes to show you how much I love this blog.

Pair #3: Sebastian Frey (Fiorentina’s Goalie)

Garfield (America’s Cat)

Just look at that facial hair. But even beyond that, the two are remarkably similar. Frey is extremely agile and often pounces on the ball like a cat… even though Garfield probably isn’t the best example of a fast and agile cat. Erm, moving along:

Pair #4: Alexander Doni (Roma’s goalie)

Dane Cook (”Comedian”)

Jed first pointed this one out in the comments section of the last post, and the resemblance here too is uncanny. It’s really quite strange, how close these people look to each other.

And for fun, Pair #5: Gennaro Gattuso (Milan Midfielder)

Solid Snake (Character from Metal Gear Solid)

Disclaimer: There’s a very high chance that this picture comes from IGN.com

Side note: I got a new mouse today for my laptop (My frigging Microsoft mouse crapped out on me). This new baby is a Logitech, and it runs uber smoothly. Highy recommended for anyone looking for a mouse.

  • Rob(ben :D)

    I’ve always thought Frey and Doni look pretty similar…

  • http://www.mcalcio.com Marco P.

    Ahah fantastic Julian! :mrgreen:

    Best ones hands down: Totti/Bear Grylls and Doni/Dane Cook.

  • mele419

    I realized the Totti/Bear one a while ago. They look EXACTLY the same.
    the rest are really good too! Doni looks like a chubby Dane cook. ahah

  • http://france.worldcupblog.org Laurie

    Yeesh, dude. Everybody knows Frey looks like Elvis!! :-) (The other ones are spot-on, though.)

  • http://juventus.theoffside.com alessio

    Goddamn I hate Dane Cook.

    For the record- Man v. Wild > Survivorman

    Great work, Julian.

  • Jed

    Thanks for the recognition julian. That Totti one was just too wierd.

  • http://www.italylogue.com/ Jessica, WhyGo Italy

    Yeah, I think Doni & Frey look like cousins. And personally, I’ve always thought of Corey Hart (he of “I Wear My Sunglasses at Night”) whenever I’ve looked at Mutu. I’ve actually got a running list of all the Serie A players and who I think they look like, but it’s pretty unlikely I’ll ever get around to writing anything about it… Email me if you want the list. :)

  • asem

    HOLLA
    thanks for the shoutout haha

  • Jeff

    Haha I love Frey and Garfield! Totti and Bear Grylls is by far the best one. Nice job Julian

  • http://spurs.theoffside.com Sam

    Hahahaha these are great.
    BUT DANE COOK FUCKING SUCKS ARGHHHHHHHHH

  • Mike

    Frey and Wolverine

  • lgarzone
  • KJ

    Ale, no way in hell is Man vs Wild better than Survivorman!!

    First, M v W is fake…You can youtube it if you dont believe me

    Those lookalikes were pretty spot on!

  • Weston

    there is a kid at my school who looks just like marco materazzi, although i dont have his picture… that would be kind of creepy anyway.

  • http://juventus.theoffside.com alessio

    oh no i know kj…but man v. wild is still entertaining as hell. survivorman is just boring as shit, some guy sitting in a swamp/mountain/something-treacherous days on end talking about how much he mastrubates being alone and bored for the week.

  • gio

    i don’t know about Mutu looking like Hartnett? Mutu sort of looks like a dirty dog to me.

    i am with Mike on Frey – Wolverine

    leuss tañlk about something very important now..Amauri should be never allowed to wear our Azzurri jersey..pippo inzaghi has spoken for all italian players and citizens when he summed up that Azzurri shirt is not the one for opportunistic fellows like amauri…

  • 9 champs league

    “The Azzurri shirt cannot be considered a consolation prize. He needs to make a decision and have the courage to announce it¨¨
    well said Inzaghi!!Now Lippi, come on and reject Amauri!!!!we dont need him, we have enugh REAL italians!!we dun need the oruindi!!

  • Bobo

    Amauri is NOT an oriundo. The oriundi were/are NATURAL BORN Italian citizens via jus sanguinis.

  • 9 champs league

    geez BOBO, tx for correcting me..Amauri has nothing Italian in him..only his wife is an italian..it is very obvious that he is now into these mind games to obtain Italian passport..

  • Bobo

    The thing is, his wife isn’t even Italian either! She’s a Brazilian with an Italian grandfather.

  • http://buffon.theoffside.com Matthew

    Damn Jules, this batch was bang on.

  • Tomas

    Speaking of Amauri and look-a-likes, he’s a dead ringer for Harry Connick Jr. Is it just me?
