:o Wow they do look similar! Ton Cruise should play guybrush in an MI movie.. Then again, best have a better actor

. The makeup really makes him look like Guybrush.

Daz · Fri 06/08/2004 11:29:59

Heh, it's uncanny.

It's kinda help by the fact they have the same background

Definately strange

Babar · Fri 06/08/2004 11:30:33

I hope with all my hope that if Guybrush was an actual person, he would not look like that. This is more a case of the Tom Cruise guy looking like Guybrush

Ginny · Fri 06/08/2004 11:37:45

Agreed. Tom Cruise has never looked better than now, resembling Guybrush

.
Anyone resembling Elaine? LeChuck?

Evil · Fri 06/08/2004 14:35:58

I think Kristen Dunst would make a good Elaine, but she'd have to act badass the whole time.

As for LeChuck, I'd have to go with Brian Posehn. Heh.

Haddas · Fri 06/08/2004 15:29:52

What about Stan? Troy Mclure

?

Barbarian · Fri 06/08/2004 16:13:47

My vote for who should play LeChuck:

Should be John Rhys Davies:

Ã,Â Uncanny huh?Ã,Â

Heh, personally, when I was watching "Pirates of the Carribean," whenever I saw Geoffrey Rush as Captain Barbossa, I was like, "Man, he would make a good LeChuck." Then again, I thought "Pirates of the Carribean" was a Monkey Island rip-off, too...so what if the ride came first, lol.

Privateer Puddin' · Fri 06/08/2004 16:48:14

Ron Gilbert was inspired by the ride, so

Hollister Man · Fri 06/08/2004 19:01:10

Now that you mention it, PotC did kinda have that Monkey Island ring to it.

Of course, I never played MI* so what do I know.

Tom Cruise and that Monkey Island guy do look alike...could anyone translate what the Spanish says? Oh, and you got the wrong guy for the pirate. It should be the guy from Indiana Jones who plays that fat man with those smallish red Arabian hat. I need to get one of those!

rodekill · Fri 06/08/2004 22:11:08

You confuse me.
If that was an attempt at humour, then, well.

Mephistophilis · Fri 06/08/2004 22:12:14

"Monkey Island Guy" heh heh, Classic.
You mean Sallah form Indy and the Title says "Seperated at Birth" And Bottom Left is "Interview with a Vampire"

JBiker51 · Fri 06/08/2004 22:15:58

Thx for telling me the translation. The joke is a whole lot funnier now.

Haddas · Fri 06/08/2004 23:33:31

Thanks to this thread I set off to roam imdb for candidates. I didn't find any, but I sure found out cool stuff about Monkey Island that I didn't know about. I didn't know that the voice of LeChuck, Earl Boen was also Dr. Peter Silberman in The terminator movies!

He should be the voice of whoever plays LeChuck, but maybe he could do it himself!

Hmmm... well, just in case you really did not know, "the guy from Indiana Jones who plays that fat man with those smallish red Arabian hat", or "Sallah", is in fact played by John Rhys Davies. :

He also played "Gimli" in the Lord of the Rings movies (as seen in the picture I posted in my previous message).

AGA · Sat 07/08/2004 17:55:35

He was also the narrator in Quest for Glory IV.

that seems to be shrek

John Rhys Davis would indeed make an excellent Le Chuck on that facial expression alone... I'm sure he could probably pull it off, but he'd have to be pretty mean and piratey. Plus, that flesh has to go.

Kirsten Dunst as Elaine?? My god, I'm sorry, I can't think of why that would work in the slightest. Just seems like everyone wants to use that girl in everything these days.

There's a great close-up of what Elaine should look like in the first game (a couple, actually) and I can't think off hand of any famoius actresses that look like that, so best to just find a new one. The same for Guybrush too, there are great pictures in the first game that show what he'd look like. It wouldn't be hard to ever-so-slightly age that picture and give it some stubble, either ^_^ As long as people don't use those awful cartooney styles as guides, I'd be happy. I hate the cartooney Guybrush.
