So who would you have playing who in the movie version of this sorry saga?

For me the ones that spring to mind are....

TF - Bloke off the dancing baby quit cigarette product advert who could come in as the SISU/ACL rent negotiations meeting is ending and say "so what have I missed".
PWKH - Al Pacino or Martin Sheen
JS - Meryl Streep or Anne Hathaway (not a fan of either) but would always stay in the shadows so we never see their face.
GR. - Sir Ian McKellen
Anyone got anymore?

I'm sorry, I've read the script and it's just too messed up to be believable.

its bound to make a big loss

 

[Colin1883]

Would it be a romcom or sitcom?

 

[ccfcrob]

Would it be a romcom or sitcom?

Would be a comedy surely

 

[James Smith]

No no it's a disaster movie.

 

[Colin1883]

Would be a comedy surely

Could be a zombie fest...

Everyone wants their pound of flesh!!!!!!

 

[James Smith]

its bound to make a big loss

It'll play in a cinema to a small weekly crowd but we'll refuse to pay to screen it there despite mounting arrears.

 

[James Smith]

Obviously the first director will be sacked and the second will be seduced by a bigger film midway through filming and another one will have to be found at short notice.

 

[olderskyblue]

TF = Jim Carrey (as Fletcher Reede)
PWKH - John Gielgud
JS - Lucy Liu (O-Ren Ishii)
KD - Worzel Gummidge

PF - Buzz Lightyear "To Infinity & Beyond"

hope it's not for rent
as I might not be able to afford the monthly rent.

 

[Colin1883]

Only available on beta max

 

[James Smith]

Or for the part of TF we could get Harry Enfield to do his Nice but Dim character but that might be a bit obvious. How about Kim Jong Un, although a rendition of "Ronery" as he walks around Ryton is a must.

 

[davebow87]

Could Ian Dowie be in it as the strange looking bloke from the Goonies??

 

[Delboycov]

It's ok Deano...just watch it over and over for a year then take it back and refuse to pay the charges telling them they've been charging you too much...

It has to be Glenn Close as Joy.
Javier Bardem as Tim Fisher
Anthony Hopkins as Coun. John Mutton
Alec Baldwin as Ken Dulaly
Ricky Gervais as Ray Ranson
Danny De Vito as Hoffman

[Nonleagueherewecome]

Javier Bardem as Tim Fisher
Anthony Hopkins as Coun. John Mutton
Alec Baldwin as Ken Dulaly
Ricky Gervais as Ray Ranson
Danny De Vito as Hoffman

I think you need to recast Gervais as KD! I can just imagine him getting his guitar out to inspire the lads...free love on the free love freeway, oh yeah.


Larry Hagman as Preston Haskell IV.
Andy Dick as Len Brody.
Hugh Grant as Tim Fisher.
Bette Davis as Joy Seppala (that ones so obvious I can't believe it hasn't been called already!).
Simon Pegg as Steven Pressley (he has the failed facial hair).
Terrance Alexander (Hugerford in Bergerac) as Joe "it's all above board, Jim!" Elliott.
Lee Nelson as Steven Jennings (for the interviews).
Harry Shearer (as Waylon Smithers) as Stuart Linnell.
Jimmy Nail as Steve Waggott.
Les Dawson as John Clarke.


Morgan Freeman to do the voice-over.."I'd like to tell you that SISU made a success of Coventry City, and that Joy and the board fought the good fight...I'd like to tell you that, but football isn't a fairytale world..."

Carry On Up The Ricoh

I was thinking more along the lines of Carry on Screaming or Chaos Theory.
But I like yours.

 

[Colin1883]

Working title...
Trading places...

Theme tune...
No woman, no cry

 

[Mary_Mungo_Midge]

Could Joe Elliott be played by singer-and-occasional-actor Neil Diamond? They share the same coiffure, and mahogany-from-a-tin skin hue.

And SISU's 'plant' on message-boards, trying to influence opinion in the face of reality - namely Grendel - could be played by Baldric

 

[deanocity3]

you thought it was safe to go out

 

[thegameaintstraight]

Carry On Up The Ricoh - The Cast

[oakey]

I didn't know we could cast dead actors otherwise I would have had Edward G Robinson as Elliott

It's okay they can do amazing things with computer effects now, costs a bit more but then we'll just parcel that debt up and assign it to some company in the Cayman Islands and then go into Admin.

cant we hand the rights to the movie over to the cast of Monty Python

 

[Mary_Mungo_Midge]

We may as well have handed over the rights to the running of the club too...

Couldnt have done a worse job & may have had a laugh in the process

I now have visions of the team coming out onto the pitch all doing Silly Walks.
