Title: SPM actor survey (possible spoilers)
Post by: GiftedGirl on June 13, 2007, 05:07:51 PM
So me and Dad were going to Taco Bell today and listening to a classic hits station and a song by David Bowie comes on and I think "If there was ever a Super Paper Mario movie, wouldn't David Bowie be perfect for the role of Dimentio?" Think about it. If you've seen Labyrinth, you probably know what led me to matching David Bowie with Dimentio. Magical~! :D

This got me to thinking... who would play everyone else? So I decided to put together this little guessing game for Super Paper Mario actors. Da da da daaaaaa~! Let the guessing begin!

Narrator

Deezer says: Morgan Freeman.

Mario

GiftedGirl says: Charles Martinet, of course! The only one able to pull off such a big role is the dude who's been doing it for years.

Peach

GiftedGirl says: I dunno. Perhaps you know?
Boo Dudley says: Meryl Streep as peach.

Bowser

GiftedGirl says: Matt Chapman as Strong Bad as Bowser! Holy crap! XD Reason being that whenever I provide voices for the Paper Mario series, I always make Bowser sound like Strong Bad. It fits. Period.

Luigi

GiftedGirl says: Tony Shalhoub. I mean, he's already played Luigi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luigi_%28Cars%29) once. XD
Kojinka says: If it's animated, why couldn't Charles Martinet be both Mario AND Luigi?

Count Bleck/Blumiere

GiftedGirl says: Jeffery Tambor... with Dave Goelz doing the laugh. BLEH HEH HEH HEH HEH BLECK!

Tippi/Timpani

GiftedGirl says: I dunno. Perhaps you know?

Merlon/Nolrem

GiftedGirl says: Sir Michael Gambon, if you please.

Nastasia

GiftedGirl says: Umm... the lady who does Rouge in Sonic X? Maybe?

Dimentio

GiftedGirl says: I already said David Bowie...

O'Chunks

GiftedGirl says: This is a hard one... let's have... Billy Connolly's head... on Arnold Schwartzenegger's body! XD If it's animated, just Billy Connolly.

Mimi

GiftedGirl says: Dakota Fanning. She's scary enough. D:
NintendoExpert89 says: The voice that came to mind for Mimi when I played the game was that of Cheryl Chase.

Bestovius/Watchitt(it'd be funny if they were played by the same guy)

GiftedGirl says: BOB SEGER. XD I wanna see if he can do a fancy-pants and an old coot in the same movie/show. WATCH IT!

Fracktail

GiftedGirl says: Anyone can sound like a robot. XD

Merlumina

GiftedGirl says: Whoever does Professor Trelawny from Harry Potter and the Prizoner of Azkaban. Emma Thompson, is that her name?

Merluvlee/Merlee

GiftedGirl says: For both, I would have to say Missy Palmer. She'd do Merlee's rhymes and be calmer... than I could ever be saying a bunch of lines in crappy rhyme. Ick. Rhyme.

Francis

GiftedGirl says: Who does a good nerd impression...?
Bird Person says: Jon Heder?
Area 64 says: Francis should be played by Dee Bradley Baker. Baker does that squeaky, nerdy voice.

Squirps

GiftedGirl says: I can do Squirps, sqweeee! :D

Mr L

GiftedGirl says: Tony Shalhoub again, but this time, he sounds... eviler.

Flint Cragley

GiftedGirl says: I would say Steve Irwin, but... *sigh* Anyone know any explorers willing to act?

Floro Sapiens

GiftedGirl says: I dunno. Perhaps you know?

King Croacus

GiftedGirl says: Some girly-man... Elton John, perhaps?

King Sammer

GiftedGirl says: A Japanese dude.
Toad says: Johnny Depp.

Sammer Guys

GiftedGirl says: Another Japanese dude. Yes, for all of them.
Toad says: Deep Roy. It worked in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory anyway...

Queen Jaydes

GiftedGirl says: A sufficiently creepy lady... how's about... Sigourney Weaver? XD

Luvbi

GiftedGirl says: *sigh* I'd be willing to take on this role... -_-;

Grambi

GiftedGirl says: An old guy. ^^;

Bonechill

GiftedGirl says: I dunno. Perhaps you know?

Super Dimentio

GiftedGirl says: Someone get a voice mixer in here! Splice David Bowie with Tony Shalhoub! For best results, add some Jason Lee!

extras

GiftedGirl says: Frank Welker. He can do any voice whatsoever. XD

So... what do you guys think? I'd love to hear what you guys can come up with.

Idiot warning: Please keep in mind that this is all opinion stuff and that they're not really making a Super Paper Mario movie.

Yeah, you're right...

Post by: GiftedGirl on June 13, 2007, 05:48:51 PM
Well, um... he'd kinda... have his hands full being Mario... since it'd have Mario with more lines of dialogue... and... such...

In short, I didn't think about it. ^^;

I can't really picture Mario to be all that talkative.
Title: Re: SPM actor survey (possible spoilers)
Post by: Deezer on June 13, 2007, 07:04:46 PM
Morgan Freeman as the narrator.
Title: Re: SPM actor survey (possible spoilers)
Post by: GiftedGirl on June 13, 2007, 07:16:31 PM
XD I haven't laughed that hard since... this morning.
Title: Re: SPM actor survey (possible spoilers)
Post by: Kojinka on June 13, 2007, 07:23:57 PM
All I know is that it would HAVE to be animated.  The only way we'd ever get another live action Mario movie is if they made a sequel of the one we already have.
Title: Re: SPM actor survey (possible spoilers)
Post by: GiftedGirl on June 13, 2007, 08:37:45 PM
Yeah, and you can't replicate Dimentio's style in real life. XD

King Sammer

Sammer Guys

That wouldn't necessarily have to be a Japanese person. As I was reading King Sammer and Sammer Guys (before seeing your answers) my first thoughts were: Johnny Depp as King Sammer and Deep Roy as the Sammer Guys.

It worked in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory anyway..

The voice that came to mind for Mimi when I played the game was that of Cheryl Chase. And the Oompa Loompas in CatCF were voiced by Danny Elfman, not Deep Roy.

How does GG always manage to get away with spamming?

Habituation, I guess. It's hard to do anything more than roll your eyes now.

And to reduce the insult factor, GG, it's something you can work on.

Morgan Freeman as the narrorator? *rolls eyes*

I think your link is busted, Dudley.

I was voicing my dislike for Johnny Depp and that new Charlie and the Chocolate Factory in an inconspicuous way. It didn't work, huh? ^^;

They were? I guess I need to watch the credits again, but I thought Roy played and voiced the OOmpa Loompas..

Voicing opinions? You just made a weird guttural noise, in text.
Depp rocked as Wonka. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory > Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, even though it doesn't feature a quote my dad and I always use after winning an argument: You are WRONG! You LOSE! Good DAY, sir! Both are good movies, but 2005 wins. From my eyes.
No idea what you're saying with "Mario would have lots of dialogue, more so than Luigi." You hit your head?

"Mario would have lots of dialogue, more so than Luigi."

I didn't say that. I meant that Mario would say more stuff than usual.
Title: Re: SPM actor survey (possible spoilers)
Post by: Kojinka on June 17, 2007, 05:54:53 PM
I don't mind if he says a LITTLE more stuff than usual, but when you get to a LOT more than usual, he just isn't the Mario we know and love.  Remember Doopliss in The Thousand Year Door?

Ha........I don't think you need a spoiler shade for that, Kojinka.

I'm just trying to be on the safe side.

Yea, she hit her head on a ?-block! She's one of those people that thinks Mario/Luigi hits his head on the blocks, even though one of his most famous poses is a jump with a fist in the air! XD No offense, GG. Just playing into the moment..

No offense taken, dude. ^_^

PLEASE stop putting things in 1pt font. If you don't want people to see what you're typing, then don't type it. If you do, MAKE IT LEGIBLE WITHOUT SIZING UP THE TEXT. I will assume that what is in 1pt text is insignificant from this point onward.
In a good Mario movie, to me, Mario is still a silent protagonist as he is in the games. Lines limited to, "Oh yeah," "Mama-mia," "AAAAAAAAA," and others. Quoth Goombella when Doopliss steals Mario's identity, "You, like, NEVER talk." Or she could have said that some time else...

Small text must die. I hate it.
