Bit off the current topic(s), but I just had a delicious thought: the 90s Spider-Man series could feature Dr. Otto “Doc Ock” Octavius in one film, being as he is one of Pete’s most iconic foes, but who might be cast to play him? Well… how about Danny DeVito himself?
Don’t go saying you can’t see it, either; DeVito would be the correct age range, a fitting build and appearance (as traditional Doctor Octopus is a stout man) which would be compensated for by his tentacles, and his aggressive intensity… Mwah!
Alternatively, we could have Dustin Hoffman, but for me DeVito would be perfection. Perhaps the only actor better for the role than OTL’s Alfred Molina (so good they brought him back for the MCU, as the exact same character no less!)
For the lattermost, you could still have them be native americans, just cherokee or a similar southeastern woodlands tribe. If not, there's always them being black,
For the former, you could just have her be a bus driver, or train conductor, or regular passenger pilot.
I didn't watch NE, honestly, so I won't be much help.
Honestly, maybe instead of Southern Exposure, its Southern Comfort, though its just me.
Interesting ideas there, though the ethnicities of said characters could go either way and be just as interesting (maybe a combination of some African-Americans and some First Nations? Perhaps a Mexican or two; Ted Turner does love his sugar-coated diversity, so he would be supportive of such)… Though now I’m wondering how
SE (though frankly I agree to preferring
Southern Comfort as a title, it feels… more suitable, shall we say, for the geographic change, as well as fitting more with such phrases, than
Southern Exposure) plays out; from which years does it run (does it start in 1990, or maybe 1991?), do they manage to keep Rob Morrow as the lead throughout and how many seasons of what length do they have (6 like OTL!
Northwest Exposure? Do they have more, or less than that? And are the first two seasons both less than 10 episodes?)
I love how despite
TP and
NE being merged by the collaborative efforts of their three creators, TTL still ends up having Veith creating the more distinct show based off the latter (with its discarded elements) while
Salem Falls took more from the former. Seems like the best of both worlds if you ask me. :-D
Would be hilarious if he became a collaborator with small-time budding creators… like say, a young Monty Oum in the late 2000s? And he helps the animator with storytelling when he wants to do his own show, along with preventing a need to RT deciding to sell themselves to a larger conglomerate (so… what would have become
RWBY IOTL is better managed overall and hopefully doesn’t lose its creator).
Gah. Look what you just did, making me think so far ahead of anything logistically predictable. You monster. ^.^ ;-P
If this did happen they couldn't use the Don Diego de la Vega version of Zorro because he and the Lone Ranger operated decades apart.
Would be a shame that we’ll probably lose
The Mask of Zorro, though we could well get something even better. Like a movie which doesn’t have its legacy tarnished by a s*itty sequel, for example.
