Replacement actors in SW?
« on: February 06, 2006, 06:09:50 AM »
...you guys got any opinions on how the movies could have turned out with a few different actors?

....imagine Ric Flair playing Count Dooku.   ;D ;D ;D ;D

I think ric flair's accent or w/e would make the star wars PT cheesy. I think I could've done a better job playing young anakin. I was about the same age as Jake when EP 1 was out. ;D

Who is Ric Flair?

Ric Flair is a 'rassler.

I could've done without Jake Lloyd and Hayden Christiansen, both performances weren't that great.

Jake Loyd wasnt that great, Hayden i thought was just ok in AOTC, but in ROTS i thought Hayden was very good.

Lets just say that I don't think that the $200 million was spent on acting classes for Natalie Portman for ROTS.

How about Urkel as Mace Windu? (one BMF for sure)

Billy Graham as Sidious? (now HE is evil)

And we need Kate Beckinsale and Jessica Alba in there somewhere, I don't care how or where

Portman was supposed to be playing some kind of a politician.  yet when she "talks politics" she sounds like some kind of an airhead.  they should have cast someone who has the ability to sound intelligent when she speaks (or the ability to fake it.  aka"act").   Carrie Fisher wouldn't have put on that fake "Regal" accent in Episode one to sound important; she would have said those same lines with URGENCY because the freaking planet was being attacked.  "When they hear you've attacked a diplomatic.."  <---thats the tone Amidala should have used from under that big-honking head-dress. hehe

I think Hayden's acting was ok but it was better in ROTS. I mean in AOTC maybe he was a little unexperienced but I think Hayden play's a bad guy better.

How about a replacement Director/Writer??  That is what we needed.

And NO replacing Natalie Portman ... she looks great in AOTC.  Saves the movie.

Junta, actually, friend, it was Obi-Wan who saved the movie.

"Oh not good"  and "Good job" warrant buying the entire movie alone.

Flair as Dooku would have ruled.   He would have gotten in Skywalker's face and did his "WOOOOO!" thing and said something like "If you wish to be the man, you must beat the man!"    ...not to mention the crazy old man strut.   ;)

Ya Obi had a big part in AOTC. I mean he is one of the reasons AOTC is very good. Ric Flair would be good in a comedy of Star Wars. hahaha His strut while holding a lightsaber would've been hilarious. hahaha

I sense great potential in you, Skywalker!    You have talent...you have backstage powers, but you do not use them.  WOOOOOOOO!

...and he'd probably do that Flair Flop thing after his head got cut off.
