I am sure someone posted this months before but back then I wasn't on the forum so not sure.
Anyway if there is to be a film who would you have in it?

1/ Main Character???
2/ Imoen...C.Diaz?
3/ Jaheira.. J.Moore...who else
4/ Minsc... Not sure
5/ Aerie...
6/ Irenicus.


,.....so on.

Irenicus would be the most important character to get right. At least for me, the quality of the villian seems to make for a more epic movie then a good hero. If you really really really hate the bad guy, then you really really want to see him go down. With that being said you would need a really powerful actor to play Irenicus, one that can project an aura of evil with facial expressions and their voice. I would vote for John Malkovich.

For Jaheira I would choose Marina Sirtis (Councilor Trois).

you can all deride me if you like but I think Nick Cage for Minsc and Milana Jovovich (I think that's her name, I'm referring to the chick off of the Fifth Element) as Jahiera...

nick cage doesnt have the body for minsc. and irenicus could be crisetopher walken.

Minsc: Arnold Schwarsennegger (sp?)
Jan: Danny DeVito
Irenicus: Chrisopher Walken
Edwin: Dennis Miller

I think Mila Jovavich (spelling?) would be good for Aerie.

Christopher Walken would have been the perfect Irenicus 20 years ago, but I think is a bit too old now. John Malcovitch was a good suggestion for him.

Viconia could be played by a painted-up Virginie Ledoyen - that would be something.

I always imagine Edwin as an older mage, not so young as he looks in his picture, so I think Christopher Walken would work well for him.

Cameron Diaz was a good suggestion for Imoen, though there may be someone better out there. Jaheira, Korgan and Keldorn would be hard to cast.

Man it'd be the sh*t if there was a GOOD baldur's movie made.

Maybe the bloke from the Silence of the Lambs for Irenicus. Anthony Hopkins?

Yeah like some of those ideas... But Nalia would be Drew Barrymore, Anomen, andy Garcia, Edwin - Gary Oldman (for at least 1 BRITISH ACTOR)
and maybe if you wanted to have David Warner as Irenicus, he does the VO in the game and is a quite accomplished actor himself, in 2 titanics ,, tron etc.... anyway nice ideas comin from u guys 2

Smurfan 07-16-2001 05:40 PM

I've always figured Minsc as a little younger and Arnold is pretty old by now..otherwise he would have been just perfect. (The accent and all...)
Maybe Van Damme for this role?

Calista Flockheart is given for Aerie! http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

I would *love* to see Walken as Irenicus and also would Gary Oldman be perfect for Edwin, wouldn't he?

How about Nicolas Cage as Keldorn? Think that would fit him pretty well...

Korgan was hard...
