Exactly. Stine and Stone are two different guys. They shouldn't look like identical twins -- that would just be an unnecessary distraction. What noted fiction writer has ever used his own picture or likeness as the face of his main character, unless the story is a camouflaged autobiography? Has that ever been the intent of City of Angels? I think it would be a mistake to take such a radical approach when committing to film such a well-regarded stage musical. Just IMO.
