Guybrush would be awesome played by Christopher Masterson of Malcom in the middle

Guybrush's voice is so great and authentic that changing it would be a complete dissaster so I also think that Dominic Armato should do it. He just need to get blond hair, that's about it. :D

either that or they could do something like a voice-over where dom's voice takes the place of the actor's voice. but, of course, they'd have to do some extreme dubbing. or they could purposely do it bad so it's cheesy/pathetic/funny like in movie "kung pow! enter the fist".

Now that´s something to think about...! Since the thing of the moment it´s to make filmes from games (like Mortal Kombat, Mario Bros, Street Fighter, etc).Why not a MI Film :D !!!

What a refreshing thought!!!!!!

Now then, Dominic Armato... I suppose I'd have to see him to judge him... Oh well. I take it he isn't any older than 30? If he is I will be severely repulsed. :(. But his voice as Guybrush? Now THAT is good. Unless they make the whole film cartoony, kinda like Treasure Planet.... but I don't know. :D

...wait, surely a Monkey Island movie would just be Monkey Island, the game, except you don't get a choice of dialogue. That would suck.

Posted

OK OK... So maybe Harrison Ford's getting a little old. He's still deliciously attractive though don't you think...? Maybe Oliver Reid could play LeChuck... Or is that too sick? I do agrre that the audience should be able to interact and choose the dialogue. Julia Roberts as Elaine......? Or maybe Penelope Cruz?

i dunno about optional dialogue, the whole idea of a movies is you get to sit down and not be too active for a while, seems to me this would one, change the movie and it's ending so no one would se the correct ending, or two, just give optional dialogue for the same subject which may or may not be funnier. either way, you can't veiw it in a cinem that way beasue you wouldn't always get your choice which is what's god about the game. i like the idea of a movie, but not optional dialogue, that just isn't the movie i want.

do u think they should be based on the games or or a whole new script? seeing the games on the big screen would be good they could do the whole reason of why guybrush got washed up on mele island.

armed with just a goofy name and the urge to be a swashbuckling pirate.
but a whole new script would be good it could be based on guybrushs time at the carnival of the damned or some other bit we didnt actually c.

a whole new script would have to be appealing and understandable to those who don't know what monkey island is, or who haven't played it. it would have to be a completely new monkey island adventure not relying at all on the games (except for injokes, the kind of jokes that are funny, but even funnier to those that have played the game, something like 'you fight like a cow.') so it could work, but then again, people wouldn't have to worry about that if they remade secret and went on from there.

We have those. It's called "gaming".

MJF doesn't act as much any more, due to his Parkinsons' disease, and he's too old for the role anyway. He'd be good if it was animated, though :).
