the DT movie thread

[fernandito]

Reading this thread is depressing me. Ron Howard better do one cot damn hell of a job.

I loved the ending of the Mist movie. I thought it the most shocking scene I have ever seen in a movie. I also understand that both Darabont and King refused to allow the movie to be made without it.

...write the damn screenplays, although that may not actually be his forte'.
...

Huge understatement there.

I totally stole this from someone else, but how about Norman Reedus as Eddie? To refresh people's memory, he is Darryl in Walking Dead, he was one of the brothers in Boondock Saints, and he was in Blade II.

Okay ive changed my mind. I saw this pic and it had Steven Deschain written all over it.

[kluker]

i think Norman Reedus would make a awesome Eddie

He's incredibly talented!

[JakeFatal]

Viggo mortensen as Roland and Edward norton as eddie

[alinda]

Still like James Franco as Eddie....but yeah Viggo as Roland is such a great idea.

Viggo mortensen as Roland and Edward norton as eddie

I really like Viggo for Roland and I love E. Norton but I think he is too old for Eddie

[velcro_fly]

James Franco would be a great Eddie!

[haunted.lunchbox]

For the longest time I was stuck on Neal Mcdonahue playing the MIB...

[/QUOTE]

But now I'm thinking I would also be happy with Ben Kingsley...

[blavigne]

I liked the guy from Law and Order that played Flagg in The stand.

[Darth Pyros]

Roland-
(it should be a time machined Clint Eastwood) but more likely Viggo Mortenson(if they makeup over his chin dimple, or for that true western feel Jeremy Irons

Eddie Dean-
either Stephen Mayer or James Roday, whichever has the better ability to make themselves look like a junkie

susannah dean-
Rosario Dawson or Jada Pinket Smith, idk, maybe flip a coin? whichever can do a better job at being ghetto for the Detta Walker parts.

Jake Chambers-
macaulay Culkin from 12 years ago, or Freddy Highmore, although his face is a little too triangularly for me, he'd probably be the best talent wise.

Flagg-
William Defoe, no doubts or ifs, or and/butts..as long as he doesn't smile his super big green goblin grin and just does a normal smile, he'd be the perfect man in black.

and for the voice of blaine-
Anthony Hopkins

thats all for now, will add more when i can think of them, this was my main reason for joining here, hope for some input.

[Jean]

this thread will shortly be merged with this one

[alinda]

I dreamed of this last night Ron Howard in the thread everyones input has already turned their heads our way. My goodness we are so
very impotant to this project , so please be careful not to sugest something stupid.OK?

[BROWNINGS CHILDE]

Jeremy Irons? With that accent?

[blavigne]

I hope for Viggo, if not him then Ed Harris. Either would make a great Roland I think.

[alinda]

or
I dont know about you, but I may be falling in love <3

[blavigne]

or
I dont know about you, but I may be falling in love <3

Well, as far as love goes, I'd have to stake a claim on Ed but I could live with Viggo as a consolation prize LOL!

[Darth Pyros]

hey guys, my mind says these..

Roland-
(it should be a time machined Clint Eastwood) but more likely Viggo Mortenson(if they makeup over his chin dimple, or for that true western feel Jeremy Irons. in the thread i started someone commented on Jeremy irons accent, he's a 5-star actor, he can get rid of his accent, no problem....the only problem i see with Viggo...is his lack of age behind his voice, when Roland speaks, it should sound like he's lived five lifetimes.

Eddie Dean-
either Stephen Mayer or James Roday, whichever has the better ability to make themselves look like a junkie(I didn't even think of James Franco, he would be perfect, blows my ideas out of the water.)

Susannah dean-
Rosario Dawson or Jada Pinket Smith, idk, maybe flip a coin? whichever can do a better job at being ghetto for the Detta Walker parts.

Jake Chambers-
Macaulay Culkin from 12 years ago, or Freddy Highmore, although his face is a little too triangularly for me, he'd probably be the best talent wise.

Flagg-
William Defoe, no doubts or ifs, or and/butts..as long as he doesn't smile his super big green goblin grin and just does a normal smile, he'd be the perfect man in black.(i think Neal would be a great flagg, but a better Walter.(magic, face changing, disguise, and such? idk, maybe im just crazy. lol Ben would be an excellent Flagg.

and for the voice of blaine-
Anthony Hopkins(mostly because i wanna hear him do the little Blaine voice, but also because of his ability to sound so cold and lifeless.)

[costanza]

I'd like to see John Cullum play John Cullum.

[alinda]

Thats funny, is there really an actor by that name? *googles*

[costanza]

I remember him from Northern Exposure. Not sure what he's been in lately. He also read the audiobook for The Man in the Black Suit.
I don't know if King had him in mind when he made the character but I think he'd do a great job. He is 80 years old though, so they better start shooting soon. lol
