Muahahhaha!

The sad part is that, despite you saying this as a joke, your probably 100% correct...

I thought of something else... I don't know his real name, but Hagrid (Harry Potter) would make a good LeChuck... or Haggis. Either one would be pretty awesome.

I just looked it up, his name is Robbit Coltrane... also, he's Scottish apparently, so he'd make a perfect Haggis

Frankly, I don't think Russell Crowe's got the hips to play Morgan. Sure, he has the full lips and sexy voice, but he just doesn't feel right to me.

Thanks Ashton... I now carry this horrid image in my head of our beloved Elaine played by that little Hannah/Miley brat... dressed in a bandana and tights, prancing about the ship singing "7 things I hate about Lechuck"

*falls down dead from the horror*

Thanks for looking that up!

Great ideas, but (no offense) the idea of Michael Cera playing Guybrush makes me shudder... because he wouldn't play Guybrush... he'd play the same character he plays in every other movie. It would be like if Kristen Stewart tried to be Elaine.

The idea of him playing any character in any movie makes me shudder. The success he's been experiencing is even more baffling than Shia LaBeouf.

mlrockrules · 02/12/2010, 05:33 pm

Mila Kunis as Kate Capsize! Also, I think it would be pretty funny if Gilbert Gottfried was one of the cannibals.

mlrockrules · 02/12/2010, 05:34 pm

Oh, and Jerry Stiller and Doris Roberts as Guybrush's parents would be pretty funny.

Uzrname · 02/12/2010, 08:47 pm

Cera is, imo, the only one with a face goofy enough to do Guybrush. Of course, if we're talking making a SMI movie, not Tales.

However, if you're looking for a more mature Guybrush, I'd say Ben Foster could fit the role.

They would be perfect.

If there were ever to be a Monkey Island movie adaptation, I'd probably want it to take a slightly more serious tone than the games. It would obviously still need some humor, but I think it'd have to lose some of the "zanier" stuff from the latter games and the most fourth-wall stuff from the former. I wrote half of a SoMI screenplay a couple years ago (mostly just for writing practice), I thought I had struck a good balance between humor and drama, faithful vs new directions, etc.

Edit: Dunno why it won't show the picture, but yeah, Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant and Karl Pilkington would be perfect for the men of low moral fibre.

Gibbeynator · 02/14/2010, 06:26 pm

I would cast Nolan North, Crispin Freeman, Steven Jay Blum and Yuri Lowenthal in every role

TomPravetz · 02/14/2010, 07:34 pm

If there were a MI movie, I'd need lines like...
"I can't do that!"
"That won't work!"
and
"Hmmm... No."

And of course "That's the mast!"

Chyron8472 · 02/15/2010, 11:46 pm

I could see Danny DeVito being the short bald Man of Low Moral Fiber who can't stop laughing and so gets bashed on the head a lot.

mlrockrules · 02/16/2010, 10:22 am

I also think Gilbert Gottfried as the Head of the Navigator might be pretty funny.

Remolay · 02/16/2010, 10:33 am

Reginald Winslow: Wayne Brady

I know he's not fat enough, but he could make the role a whole lot of fun

I've never pictured Winslow Black as in African-American. I've always thought he was one of them Blacks with European faces, kind of like Latin Blacks.

Also, I'd also suggest my choice of Elaine as Bonnie Wright, if Cera is to be cast for Guybrush.
