(edited down from ridiculous length to merely absurd length)
I've been thinking about this pretty much constantly since we recorded. First and foremost: Bob Anderson as Sword Master. I want this thing to have more Flynning than any other movie out there.
Also, this is reverse-Star Wars: the Brits are the good guys.
Parn: James McAvoy
Slayne: Ioan Gruffudd
Ghim: Robbie Coltrane
Deedlit: Rachel Weisz
Jay Lancard (Woodchuck): Alan Cumming
Leylia: Sienna Miller
Princess Fianna: Talulah Riley
King Kashue: Liam Neeson
Ashram: Viggo Mortensen
Pirotess: Jessica Alba
Wagnard: Bill Nighy
Emperor Beld: Terence Stamp/Jude Law
King Fahn: Malcolm McDowell/Ewan McGregor
Wort the Sage: Anthony Hopkins/Cary Elwes
High Priestess Neese: Tilda Swinton/Keira Knightley
Roles that need to be filled: Eto. The Mayor of Zaxon. The daughter of said mayor. Shiris & Orson. Fahn's knights (and Tetheus). Kashue's entourage. Wagnard's necromancers, and all of Marmo (Americans!). King Flaube. Nameless Hero (Six Heroes-era Karla). Marfa. Kardis.
People I'd love to have in the movie: Elizabeth Hurley. Hugh Laurie. Sean Bean (something with Viggo, for the LotR nod). Catherine Zeta-Jones. Kenneth Branagh. Gary Oldman. Jeremy Irons & Alan Rickman (if possible as brother characters, for a Die Hard nod). And Frank Welker for all of the Ancient Dragons.
god why
Why, why, why, Mai has no boobs.
I'm surprised you guys didn't mention Event Horizon (there's gotta be one of you that seen it) when you were talking about Dead Space.
I'll just throw this out there since I came up with this a few years ago now, but I'd like to see a Ninin Ga Shinobuden movie (aka Ninja Nonsense).
Shinobu: Michelle Trachtenberg
Onsokumaru: Bernie Mac (Before he died obviously)
Kaede: Alison Mack
Shinosuke: Topher Grace
Miyabi: Emma Watson (Back from the first couple of Harry Potter movies)
As for the director, maybe Jay Roach.
