Who would be your choice of actor for a Fallout 3 movie

Post » Fri Nov 13, 2009 8:18 pm

For a movie taking place in the Fallout setting.... Josh Brolen for a good guy mainly because I like how he acted in No Country for Old Men, Russel Crowe for his job in 3:10 to Yuma (Amazing job there. Seriously, could be a very good villain for a post-apoc setting. Charismatic, but also deadly.) and Robert Downey Jr. if only because I found him the most comical of the list.

Good: I voted other because my choice would be sean bean, who is admittedly getting on a bit to play a 19 year old but if he could replicate his preformance on sharpe he would be perfect for my character seeing as I based him on Rchard Sarpe. (the title role in Sarpe). I couldnt see three dog as anyone other than Will Smith, possibly Chris Rock. Sentinal Lyons would be Sarah Chalke, but thats for my own reasons ;). Liam Neeson as dad is a given. Sandra Oh for Madison Lee and allison Hannigan for Moira Brown. Also I know he is not a major character but the second i heard about and talked to Iwrin Gallows I thought Danniel Craig. i cant think of an actor to play Fawkes but i would love to see Mariusz Pudzianowski in that role

Bad: I voted other again and would like to throw Ian McKellen's name into the hat because i think he would make a great alistair tenpenny, he was evil,but for Eden, i have no idea who could match that almost sickening down home suburban nature, probably the actor who voiced him. I would say Neil Flynn would be a good Agustus Autumn. Colin Farrel as Colin Morriarty.

Ugly: im not sure what you meant by this catagory so i didnt vote for something i didnt understand. no critisism of you, just me being thick

Spacey has range, just watch Se7en, Swimming With Sharks, American Beauty, and The Usual Suspects. He's capable of pulling off virtually any role, and is always fantastic to watch.

As for Tuturro, http://www.metacafe.com/watch/978697/the_big_lebowski_jesus_quintana/ ;)


Just because an actor has range doesn't mean the public will think it so. Spacey really was awful as Lex Luther in Superman but then that is my opinion and like bung holes everyone has one. That Video of Tuturro does nothing for me in fact it makes me want to crawl into my bed pull my cover over my head and go into a depressive laden coma. I like John in most movies I have seen him in but you have reminded me of why I never saw "The Big Lebowski" I just never felt the need to watch it. However, I could be to critical, but then that is me and I like my Heroes and Villians to be larger then life. I think Zachary Quinto could be a awesome raider, he of course is Syler on Heroes. When I think of evil I think of Syler, Emperor Palpatine, and Ben Wade because these are the kinds of Evil I would consider being part of the Wasteland where the strong survived and weak got weeded out. I do not dislike Spacey or Tuturro, and maybe Tuturro out of the two would be great, but Spacey has never done Sci-fi. Spacey is a great actor but in all of the movies you posted none of them are Sci-fi. No, I wouldn't consider Se7en Sci-fi. Like I said this is just me though and I have my opinions and my Heroes need to match their antagonist.

Thank you for your input Captain Wall-o-Text. When I have the time to actually decipher whatever it is that you typed out, I'll do so.

Uhhh...the thing with Megan Fox? LOL...yeah I know..her acting ability isn't the big deal...I think mostly she gets parts just because of her looks...people just look at her and their jaws drop and their schlongs grow..lol...

Just because an actor is said to have range doesn't mean the majority of the public will flock to the idea. Kevin Spacey was great in all of the movies you listed, but really was awful as Lex Luther, but then that is my opinion and it is my own. That Video you showed me of Tuturro, while interesting, does nothing for me. It makes me want to stop selling death sticks and go home and rethink my life. Now don't get me wrong I like John in many of the movies he has been in, but you have reminded me of why I never saw "The Big Lebowski". However, I could be overly critical of the movie, but then I imagine someone being a pain in the butt for both the Antagonist and the Protagonist. Tuturro could be a decent as the Ugly style of Character but I just don't see him being a strong ugly. I mean the theme of the Ugly is the trickster, scoundrel, and just as imperfect as the Good guy and Bad guy. I just imagine someone being a bit more powerful in the role then Tuturro. I would think someone a bit harder edged someone who looks like the wasteland could have taken its toll on them and that through it all they have managed to have a sense of humor yet still be a catalyst for the Antagonist and Protagonist. I love Mexican Stand offs and I think I would not get that feeling of awe with the Trio you picked. The Bad it is completely possible but your picks for Good and Ugly they are just to high scale and I don't think Kevin Spacey could replace Clint Eastwood as Blondie. If you put one of your actors into the roles from "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly" and you chuckle, then you know something is a bit off.
