Josh Mostel is the poor man's Wayne Night
View Larger Image
Although I hear Wayne Knight has recently lost a ton of weight, so we might all have to accept Josh Mostel in the snivelling fat guy role for the forseeable future.

Nathan Fillion / Jason Bateman
View Larger Image
I saw this guy in a plane movie called "waitress." I thought I had a double poor man because the main girl looked like a poor man's Keri Russell...unfortunately it actually turned out to be Keri Russell. This guy definitely makes a living pretending to be Jason Bateman, though...

Rupert Friend is the poor man's Orlando Bloom

Both wimpy hollow cheeked british guys. Rupert was in the recent Pride and Prejudice and I kept thinking he was Orlando. Still, at the end of the day, since they both get more action in a week than I ever will, I'm the poor man's either of them.

I was completely convinced that these two guys were the same until I watched the Cape Fear remake which has both of them in it. They play the same sort of roles in the same sort of movies. If the latter hadn't run for president, I'm not sure who would be the poor man.

Canadian Bacon is the poor man's Bacon

At no point is a piece of ham in a frying pan an even remotely acceptable substitute for the religious experience of eating bacon. In fact, I find it apalling that they include the word "bacon" in the name at all.

Cracked is the poor man's Mad

Even when I was a desperate to be amused 8 year old kid, I still wouldn't be caught dead looking through an issue of Cracked at the news stand. Maybe it was that I just couldn't figure out why someone would find a goofy looking painter guy more amusing than Alfred E Neuman.

Michael Rappaport is the poor man's Cole Hauser, or Vice Versa
View Larger Image
I'm not sure who to declare the winner here, but it seems like Rappaport might end up being the poor man's, or at least the hip hop version of the Cole Hauser, where Cole is the Hollywood counterpart. I suppose that Rappaport was around first, but I feel like Hauser might have surpassed and thus usurped the title. Maybe they are the same person, I'm just not sure.
