Good to see some Watchmen fans here Jamie

I hope they make this film I know Gilliam once had an option NOW that would have been interesting... I'm thinking it might work better if it was animated..? OK if they did a live action then:-

for the role of dan dreiberg/night owl...Robert Redford (!) or Kyle Mcgloughlin ((sp?) (Dune guy)

for the role of the comedian... yep Clooney would be cool

role of adrian viedt/ozymandias... Tom Cruise

for the role of doctor Manhatten...always thought it should be ARNIE and should be naked with blue paint...

the role of Rorsarch... how about that Gollum guy (Serkis) as he has the right face when the mask is off..and he could do a wierd rough sounding voice.
or Ed Norton

 

for the role of dan dreiberg/night owl... Ralf Fiennes

Comedian... Jack Nicholson/ Bruce Willis

Adrian viedt/ozymandias... Jeff Daniels

Dr. Manhatten... C.G.I

Rorschach Colin Farrell

AND don't forget Sally Juspeczyk/Silk Spectre : Winoa Ryder / Liv Tyler

 

Rorschach was my favourite character, but I don't know who I would want to play him. Although James Woods is in the back of my mind for some reason.

 

damn,yeah!
james woods would be awesome as rorschach.
good call!
how about hollis mason,the original nite-owl?
i say adam west...would that work or would cinema audiences just go 'oh,it's batman...'
i thought of catherine zeta jones douglas for sally jupiter myself...

hahaha,just realised the significance of that emoticon!

 

If I'm right about James Woods then that must mean I know what I'm talking about, which therefore means that I'm right about my LotR comments in the London boards then, hey Jamie??

I'll try and think of some more castings tomorrow.

 

hahaha,yeah...i'll give you that,mate!

 

Ok I really like James Woods he is twisted enough to play Rorschach......

 

and now,he's the right age.
what was doctor manhattens real name?
damn you,zoe burkett!!!

 

Jamie this should help:-

Jon Osterman. His father was a
watchmaker, and he was going to follow him until his father sent him into physics
following Hiroshima. In 1948 he entered Princeton, and in 1958 he obtained his
Ph.D. In 1959 he went to work at Gila Flats, where he met and fell in love
with Janey Slater. In August 1959, he was caught in an accident in an
intrinsic field remover, causing him to disintegrate. By November, he had
obtained sufficient control over matter to reassemble himself. He worked for
the government, becoming their nuclear war prevention (since he could
destroy incoming missiles with a thought). He was publicly revealed in 1960.
In 1963, he failed to prevent Kennedy's assassination. He was at the
meeting of the Crimebusters in 1966, following which he fell in love with
Laurie Juspeczyk. His father died in 1969. In 1971 he intervened in
Vietnam, leading to victory over the Viet Cong. He and Laurie eventually
moved to Rockefeller military base. In 1985, following allegations he'd given
cancer to people he was associated with, he left Earth and went to
Mars, returning to get Laurie at one point. He returned following the
"alien attack" in New York and went to Antarctica to confront Veidt,
following which he decided to leave Earth altogether. #'s 1-4, 6, 9, 11-12.
