The replace the actor with a musician game..

[bowieee]

I just thought I would start a music game thread where we replace famous movie roles with musicians we would like to see play them.

For instance instead of Toby Maguire playing spiderman I would want to see Jonathan Richman take the role...

another one I could see is Lou Reed as the original Terminator.

[radikill]

I would put David Bowie in the role of the Goblin King in Labyrinth.



Yes, I am a smart ass. :D

[Romero&Juliet]

Billy Idol as ASH...

[bowieee]

I could actually see that Romero.

Billy sneering and crooning Riiiight! now who wants some while shaking a punk rock fist.

I want to see johnny cash as Indiana Jones.

[Lady Summerisle]

Romero,

Billy can Rock the Cradle of Raimi anyday.

John Mayer as Emperor Commodus in GLADIATOR.

Leonard Cohen as Whistler in BLADE. That would kick ass. Or Quai Chan Kane in KUNG FU: THE LEGEND CONTINUES.

[BadCoverVersion]

I'd luuurve to see...

~Bryan Ferry as Patrick Bateman
~Iggy Pop as Riff-Raff

Last but not least....Jarvis Cocker as James Bond (It could work ;))

Look at the man....He's a fucking ladykiller!!!

[BadCoverVersion]

Katy Bush as CATWOMAN

[Grebdron]

Axl Rose as any of Woody Allen's characters.



"Whhhhhhhhhhhhyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy are you looking at me like that?"

[bowieee]

I don't know about Jarvis as James bond.... but I could see him breaking a martini glass and attacking a group of ninjas with it.

Bryan Ferry as Patrick Bateman: In American psycho 3 I could see the tag line... "This time hes mad and in panties!"

Axle rose as woody allen. This I would have to see. :)

[Lady Summerisle]

Nice avatar, BadCoverVersion.

Jarvis is soooo Bond.
Ferry would suit an aging Patrick Bateman nicely. He's just a jealous guy. Of someones embossed card that is.


Peter Gabriel as The Old Man in ROBOCOP. Peter is menacing with the goatee alone.

Avril Lavigne as Carrie in CARRIE. HEHEHE... My mind works in funny ways.

[bowieee]

So Im not the only one that finds Peter Gabriel looking sinister with his new facial hair......

[free]

Garth Brooks as Billy Bob Thorton in Slingblade



Come on they're both bald.....;)

I've just spluttered my cup of tea all over my monitor...

Very cheesy, but extremely amusing!!!

PS: Oh yes, Peter Gabriel does look somewhat dastardly...;)

[paul calf]

i could definatly see jarvis cocker playing norman bates in pyscho,but james bond i think not ,even in your scarey fantisies bcv.
what about eminem as mr orange

[Buck Turgidson]

"Eminem" would be a good Zed from Pulp Fiction. I have a feeling that's what's on his mind most of the time, anyway...

[The Postmaster General]

Beck as Shaggy

Ad Rock as Henry Hill

Prince as Doctor Frank-N-Furter

[Ren Hoek]

I'd LOOOOOOOOVE to see a $150million remake of Casablanca with Britney Spears in the Ingrid Bergmann part... and Sean "Puffy" Combs playing the Humphrey Bogart character 'Rick'.

And please let it be directed by Michael Bay, and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer!!!!

oh what a nightmare... :eek:

[Grebdron]

Meatloaf as Indiana Jones.

Bjork as Lara Croft.

Tracy Chapman as The Secretary.

[bowieee]

I would so pay my 8 bucks to watch meatloaf try to outrun the boulder at the start of Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Oh and Bjork as tomb raider, that would have maybe even saved the movie form its shitty directing and even shittier script.

David Bowie as Lestat in Interview with the Vampire

If only it were true......

Well I have the Hunger to tide me over for now.


How about Neil young as the professor in Back to the Future.

[Lady Summerisle]

bowieee,

How about Tom Petty as the professor in BACK TO THE FUTURE.

And Enrique Iglesias as OddJob in THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN GUN? Use a little CGI and voila! you have it. Along the same lines, have Britney Spears replace Britt Ekland as Mary Goodnight, the spy who couldn't act her way out of a paper bag.

My recasting of the Bond films:

A VIEW TO A KILL
Jarvis C. as the Bondster, Robbie Williams as Max Zoren, RuPaul as May Day. Tori Amos as the Tanya Robert's role.

LICENSE TO KILL
Julio Iglesias as the Wayne Newton role, Lee Aaron as Pam Bouvier, Norah Jones as Lupe, Alice Cooper as Sanchez.

Enrique Igesias as odd job. :D He would try to seduce bond with his Latin voice and sexy mole.

[bowieee]

I just thought of Sonic youth taking up the roles for A Hard Days Night. If only it were true..........

[BadCoverVersion]

This was an extremely interesting topic, so a *bump* and a *hump* it shall be...I'll throw one out to kick us off...

Nick Cave as Dr. Orin Scrivello D.D.S.
