Casting

If one were to make a movie (probably a drama) from the Water Cooler, whom would you cast for which parts?

Go by what the person's like, not what you may have seen of them on "Post Your Pic".

Who could play Craig? Mango/magma/135711? Anyone else? Let's have some ideas!!

Let's see, I think I would cast Marlon Brando for Craig... After all, he is the "Godfather" for this board ;-)

Craig would have to be be played by Ben Affleck.

I picture Swordsman as a brooding James Franco sort of guy.

Inquartata...Viggo Mortenson

epeemike...Steve Buscemi (Rockhound on "Armaggedon")

Peach could be Cathy Bates...in her "Dragonfly" persona, not "Misery"

Oh, and earlie would HAVE to be played by the crazy, lime-stealing boater from "WaterWorld" (sorry, I don't know the actor's name)

Good thread.
I dunno. It's hard to analyse yourself (although I'm a fan of Alan Rickman), and I've ben away too long to 'characterise' people.

I'd say Our everpresent overseer Craig could be played by someone like Peter Weller.

I didn't know many people had seen Waterworld. Right on Capt.
I don't know what I would cast myself as in this thread though in fantasy I think my chara's personality is like Catherine Zeta Jones in 'The Mask of Zorro' and I don't really know everyone else well enough to come up with someone to cast them. Mango's a tough one

Sepulchrave

Sepulchrave is a major character in the Gormanghast novels. Read it when you have the chance. I'm always on the lookout for more books to add to my reading list. The book of the month club is so horrible, I can't even look at the titles anymore, so I have to rely upon the recommendations of friends.

the Sword of Truth series (no, not just because there are swords, but that is a plus. ) I've liked it so far. As to reading the novel that might take a while with all the required reading for class and all. bleh! Someday! *daydreams of reading books she actually likes*
