Bizarro Movies

Here’s a fun little game some buddies of mine came up with…Bizarro Movies.

A Bizarro Movie is a remake of a movie in which every character is played by the original actor’s nemesis from another movie. Sound complicated? It’s not!

Example: Bizarro Lord of the Rings

Gandalf- played by Patrick Stewart
Saruman- played by Yoda

Gandalf was played by Ian McKellan, who played Magneto in X-Men in which his arch nemesis was Pr. Xavier played by Patrick Stewart! Easy and a hell of a lot of fun over a couple of pitchers of beer!

Here’s the rest of our Bizarro LotR:

Sam- The entire starting lineup of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish
Frodo- don’t really remember…what was Elijah Wood ever in, anyway…
Legolas- Geoffrey Rush
Elrond- Keanu Reeves
Arwen- A Giant Fucking Asteroid
Boromir- Pierce Brosnan
Theoden- A Giant Fucking Iceberg
Eomer- huge fucking ghost ship
Galadriel- ugly Indian witch doctor
Gimli- no one could think of anything…maybe a nazi or something
Strider- Demi Moore

I don’t recall what we said for Gollum…it was funny though…

So what other Bizarro movies can we do? Someone name a movie and everyone adds one or two names until we can’t go any further…

Hmm…were there drugs or alchohol involved in the conception of this game?

Bizarro Star Wars

Luke Skywalker: Kevin Conroy
Han Solo: Sean Bean
Princess Leia: Jason Mewes
Obi-wan Kenobi: Albert Finney
Darth Vader: Arnold Schwarzennegger

… Y’know, after an all-star cast like that, I think I’d probably cast unknowns in the rest of the parts.

Anyone wanna do a Bizarro Kazam starring Kobe Bryant?

I don’t understand this one. When was James Earl Jones arnie’s nemesis?
p.s. this will sure be a fun thread to read when I’m sober.

If this extends to music I’d rather hear “Can We Rock (What’s Up, Doc?)” rapped by Yao Ming.

In Conan the Barbarian.

And as for Bizarro Frodo, I’d say…Macaulay Culkin.

I think Tolkien would have actually risen from the grave to go on a murderous rampage if Culkin got anywhere near LOTR. :smiley:

This is fun.

Oh I dunno, they could have saved a fortune on CGI if they’d cast him as Gollum. There is a startling resemblance.

Bizarro Spiderman:

Spiderman: J.T. Walsh, the heavy from Pleasantville.
Green Goblin: Tom Berenger, the crazy seargent from Platoon.
Mary Jane: One of the action figures from Small Soldiers
Harry Osborn: I got nuthin’.
Aunt May: Paul Rogers, who starred opposite her as Iago, in a 1955 TV version of Othello.
J. Jonah Jameson: Adewale Akinnuoye-agbaje, who played the radical Muslim inmate on Oz.

Surprisingly no, but alcohol did indeed free our imaginations a bit. Another game we came up with was tell a story using one actor and including plots from all his movies (or as many as you can think of. Unless you use someone who’s made lots of big movies or movies your friends are familiar with, it isn’t very funny. Tom Cruise is great for this).

This is one of those things we do when we decide we hate television. Beer and pizza and a little mind-jogging. Bonus points for obscurity and its recognition factor.

That’d be Timothy Dalton (Rhys-Davies played a Bond villain…).
