Morgana LeFay (PoV)

Guest
No, there isn't really a movie that I know of. And if there is, let's all hope it is better than that Dungeons and Dragons fiasco they put out a while back!

But the purpose of the thread, and I thought this would be fun, is to ask:


If you could pick a Hollywood actor or actress to portray your UO character, or characters, who would it be?

Personally, I had a tough time choosing between Katherine Zeta Jones...



and

Courtney Cox



If you put a blond streak in their hair, either would probably look like Morgana LeFay...but Katherine Zeta would need blue contacts!

(some here may have seen me in game as a blond. That is because they won't allow you to streak your hair in UO :( )

I was thinking Meg Ryan with black hair and a streak through it, or even Jamie Lee Curtis... but then, I'd be showing my age, eh?

How would a UO movie work...?

Well wait, I guess it worked for LOTRO but it actually had a story <_<

Actually the low-budget direct-to-bargain-bin sequel to the D&D movie was actually pretty good for a B- movie - felt closer to the feel of a real game.

hmm ... actor to play Maplestone ... Andrew Robinson (he played Garak in DS9 ... not that I see Maplestone as anything like Garak aside from being a bit of an outsider, but the actor did such a good job with the character and emoting that I could see him doing a "quiet minor hero" type role - *searches around for a clip or interview* - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=viNc6WbaXOs )

well it starts out with your character walking... and then continue to walk... then they walk a little more... "oh look a mongbat!!! (vas flam)!" ... continues to walk. the end.

:D just like in LOTR! (just a joke)

Kurt Russell

I've always thought that voice actors brought some of my favorite characters to life, so other great choices would include -

Mike Judge, ala ~ Hank Hill (I Tell you what) of 'King of the Hill'
or
Billy West, ala ~ Fry (Hey, I have an idea. Let's do that!"), of Futurama -
and Geeker (Do Chickens Burp?), of Project GKR

Bela Lugosi. He'd just wander around complaining about how badly he's been nerfed to an uncaring world.

when Orgin systems was around Richard Garriott pushed wing Commander into a movie:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wing_Commander_(film)

I don’t know how they figured wing commander had a bigger fan base then Ultima.
Wing commander the movie was poorly writen and was a flop.

I expect WoW to be made into a movie sooner or latter.

It would basically be 90 minutes of people complaining about things they want nerfed and accusing each other of speed hacking. But still, I would go and see it!

I'm basing my picks mostly on the personality of each character, and who I think would pull it off best. Also, each could easily pull off the look of each character.

For Black Sun (Pally/Swordsman) George Clooney. A straight leading man, all business, quiet, reserved, noble.

For Alex Kanebridge (Mage/Tamer) Johnny Depp. Based on the outstanding job he did playing Jack Sparrow. Kinda goofy, but dependable and honorable.

For Raven Blackmoore (Theif/Fencer) Christian Bale. Cocky, scarcastic, shady, somewhat questionable morals, but a good guy to have around when things get dicey, can be a leader if forced to be.

For Corran (Necro/Mage) Michael C. Hall from Dexter. Straight laced and stoic, but with just a hint of darkness kept tightly in check. Happy to just stay out of the way and let others handle the decison making.

For Gordan Ramsay (Chef/Beggar) Gordon Ramsay. I based the character on the actual person, so who better to play him.

As for my other 2 characters (A mule and a bard) I couldn't really say for sure. I don't use them enough to get a good feel for their personalities.

Apparently you've never seen Michael C. Hall?
Not the best looking guy out there.



Sometimes he's downright creepy looking.
