omeone please lock this before a flame-war starts up.
chris_blair_fpj, that was not a good subject to bring up. Threads like this tend to turn into flame-fests. It's a reasonable question, but the topic of movie vs. the games has been beaten to death around here, and it tends to annoy a number of people to see it brought up, especially directly, and, for some, by a newbie whose been here for only a few days and as his second post.
To answer your question: No, Paladin doesn't look the same. There's a different actor for Paladin in the games than for the movie, and neither looks especially like the Paladin from WC1/2, in my opinion, since neither is blonde. And Blair, for a lot of people (including me), will always be Bluehair from WC 1/2 or Mark Hammel, but you are, like everyone else, entitled to your opinion and I'm not going to challenge that.
Welcome to the boards, and please don't let this scare you from posting again. I'm not coming down on you, just letting you know that some topics have been overposted and a lot of people aren't interested in seeing them again. However, it's a natural mistake. We all make them (and usually have, including yours truly).
