Natty Posted January 2, 2001 Posted January 2, 2001 i know this is probably a really stupid idea, but i think a monkey island movie would be kinda funny- afterall, so many movies have been turned into computer games and vice versa, so why not monkey island? i know it probably wouldnt be the same, but it's an idea, anyone got any ideas of who could probably play parts? Guybrush- i honestly have no idea who could play guybrush... Elaine- Kate Winslet Possibly? I think maybe due to the red hair and firey spirit makes her a good candidate for elaine Le Chuck- someone really really ugly, smelly, and a basic jerk who can play evil people really well Stan- Jim Carrey? I don't know why but i could imagine him as a great stan Voodoo Lady- i was thinking whoopie goldburg even though i dont really like her Sword Master- Drew Barrymore, ala charlies angels style, cept with a sword and insults they're just a few characters to begin with anyone else got any ideas? i mean i know it will never happen but it's an idea and i think it's kinda fun to think of who could play loveable computer game characters Natty
Rufio Posted January 2, 2001 Posted January 2, 2001 good idea, lets start the un-official cast of the even more un-official movie. (warning: im a huge kevin smith fan so this is gonna either make total sence in some parts or none at all.) guybrush-matt damon or jason lee (long hair...it could work) Lechuck-kevin smith H.T.-christopher loyd Elaine: shannon doerty Stan: ben affleck and im spent... ------------------ "i am going to kill you, and you will scream while you die, and then, you will be dead"

Rufio Posted January 28, 2001 Posted January 28, 2001 mega: you are only budgeting $200,000 on a MI movie?? each of your cast members alone would want DOUBLE that as pay, common be realistic, if were gonna do this, do it right, at least a 10million budget cap. (sure lec might loose money, buw we'll be happy, and good ol' george has some pocket change to spare.) ------------------ So much for taking the world by storm, looks like i'll be taking it by siege.
kizzmonkey Posted February 1, 2001 Posted February 1, 2001 Errr..... Guybrush Threepwood: Jim Carrey Elaine:Catherine Zeta Jones LeChuck:Marilyn Manson (you know why!) Stan: Tim Allen (from Home Improvement) Voodoo Lady: Whoopi Goldberg Largo LaGrande: Mel Gibson Wally: Someone really short... Any ideas??
Tull Posted February 8, 2001 Posted February 8, 2001 All parties interested in a MI movie need to zip over to mi.adventuregamer.com and read the two scripts in the fan section And come on, Ted Danson HAS to be Stan. And David Hyde-Pierce would've been a good Guybrush but I think he's too old now. Do you know, that back in '92 when they were actually planning to make a MI movie, Leonardo DiCapprio was penciled in as Guybrush? Shudder.
storken Posted February 8, 2001 Posted February 8, 2001 why do you want Jim Carrey to play Guybrush???? He would make a much better Stan.... ------------------
Kid Posted February 9, 2001 Posted February 9, 2001 Originally posted by storken: why do you want Jim Carrey to play Guybrush???? He would make a much better Stan.... I agree, people want Mel Gibson or Tim Allen as Stan but Stan needs to be someone young and with a lot of energy, People like Mel or Tim would be too old to play Stan. ------------------
storken Posted February 9, 2001 Posted February 9, 2001 yep, the old movie casts on this site was better. ------------------
Eskimo Posted February 12, 2001 Posted February 12, 2001 NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!!!!! It would totally destroy the series. They'd never be able to pull it off properly.
Guest Dr._Threepwood Posted February 19, 2001 Posted February 19, 2001 I like what you are saying but it will be kida of hard to do ------------------ I can still hear the Monkeys
