NordVolf Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Hello everyone. NordVolf here. I know. I've been away for a long time. But my time away has been far from idle. A little while back, there was a post in the TEW 2008 forums... Ok, so maybe it was a long while back. Who knows? Maybe the topic has resurfaced in these more recent TEW 2010 Forums. I scanned the threads briefly, even did a search. Couldn't find it if it is here, so I just don't know. Anyway. That thread... http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=35301&highlight=movie ... asked a simple question as a premise: If you were to make TEW into a movie, who would you cast as actors for whom in the game? Well, needless to say, that caught my attention. I'd been doing the same kind of mental exercise with actors for parts since my early days of table-top fantasy role playing games. So I got hooked on the idea. I then noticed that there were no women in there! And being a Triple-A fan, I couldn't help but quickly notice no one even attempted to address Angel Athletic Association at all(!). Needless to say, I felt a little... slighted... I haven't had the time to delve into what promotions still exist and which don't in TEW 2010 yet, let alone which characters are in them or not. As a result, I stand to be horribly outdated. It can just as well be argued that my TEW 2007 diary of AAA has been long since out-dated as well. Hell, for all I know, AAA no longer exists in TEW cannon. But all that aside... I resolved to 'fix' the issue. Been working on it ever since. http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA_Banner.jpg Actors of Angel Athletic Association Main Event: http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/JoanneRodriguez.jpghttp://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/JRo_PVelasquez_01.jpg Joanne Rodriguez --played by-- Patricia Velasquez http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/WandaFish.jpghttp://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/WandaFish_HLocklear.jpg Wanda Fish --played by-- Heather Lockleer http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/CatherineQuine.jpghttp://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/CatherineQuine_ALarter.jpghttp://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/CatherineQuine_ALarter2.jpg Catherine Quine --played by-- Ali Larter.

Work in progress, after all. If anyone has ideas, please PM me or, better yet, post here to let me know! I'll then update this to reflect the additions. Please bear in mind that not all the actors look exactly like "their characters", and some look very little like them. But the idea, for me anyway, is who the character reminds me of. Quite frequently, I find myself looking at a character picture and thinking, "Hey! That looks just like {some actor}!" And while it may turn out to not be exactly the case, the fact remains that the character reminds me of that actor. And as such, it then colors the way I see the character ever after. Of course, this is also tainted by the diary game I have going, even after all this time. And yeah. I'm still working on it. Posted to it too, a bit ago. I know. Been a while. But even after all this time, it still captures and drives my imagination. And should you be curious, and maybe desiring of a little TEW 2007 'retro action', you can find it here: Days in the Life - Confessions of a Triple 'A' Worker (Cornellverse) As a result, the head booker is my "user character", and various other characters I've included are not on AAA's 'normal' C-verse starting roster for 2007, 2008, or presumably 2010. Of course, the way I formatted the above, it also lets you see where the workers are with regards to push and all, as well as what I've done with AAA's roster for my game. Kills two birds with one stone. There are several other self-made characters I've made and placed into my database, incidentally spawned from 3D character art I'd seen and subsequently pillaged from various other 3D art sites. While I in no way take credit for any of the art, they have inspired me greatly not only for characters in my diary, but also for the nature of the story in the diary itself! As I've said before, if any of you out there are in fact the creators of any of these fine works, please let me know if you object and I will remove them promptly. 3D Character Art Credits: Karen "Sorely" Sørrenson - VBigB, with my personal thanks for this artwork he did just for me! Lorna Midnight - Finister Foul Miss Midnight & Missy Midnight - Timo Benita Silver - ExitZero Max Blast - Made by me, NordVolf, using another "character generator engine" called "City of Heroes". MBW Aiko, Kitten, Roxette & Serina - Psi Knight Stacy Flair - Uroboros Xiomara - I can't remember, nor find, where I got this from. But the minute I re-find the info, I'll amend this post to provide proper credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NordVolf Posted March 16, 2010 Author Share Posted March 16, 2010 For Grace Harper I was thinking Natalie Portman. Just a thought. You know, I saw your suggestion, and thought about it for a couple seconds. Seriously considered it. And I thought, "She's a good actress. Little young maybe. Well, the face might be about right... Let's check it out." So I fired up Google Search for images. "But I don't recall seeing any pictures of her with a short hair sty...

Remianen Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Nah, Natalie Portman is really pretty and Grace Harper is really homely looking. No she's not. She's got one of the highest sex appeal ratings in the entire world. By that criteria, J.Ro is really homely looking too because her render doesn't scream 'A* sex appeal' either. The same could be said for Sara Marie York. I dunno Bon, some of those choices seem kinda off. When are you making this movie, 1986? ("It's like some kind of....hot tub time machine") Lot of concessions being made. Kristy McNichol must be 50 by now. Uma could do Raven without it being too much of a stretch. Keira Knightley could do Brazzle easily. You know what kind of worker Cherry Bomb is and as much as I love the wry style of Janeane, she just doesn't fit. It's kinda like casting little Raul Julia to be M.Bison in Street Fighter. I'd cast Melissa Anderson to do Cherry Bomb. Hair color is easy to change and Melissa has the training and ability to give the character life. I'd also get Sarah Stock to do Miss Mexico (with hair color being easy to do). Other than that, I'd really have to think about it. I'd cut the actual cast down a lot (getting all those people enough screen time to show/develop their characters would turn the movie into an 18 hour, three film trilogy. ) and many of the names too.

NordVolf Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 I see Grace Harper more as Tamsin Greg myself... To paraphrase a song... "Things that make you go... 'Hmmm...' " http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/GraceHarper.jpghttp://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/GraceHarper_TGreig01.jpghttp://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/GraceHarper_TGreig02.jpg Grace Harper --played by-- Tamsin Greig (Pick by Nedew) Interesting pick, Nedew. Ok, then. Let's see... Well, Grace is older, at 30+. And I haven't seen Tamsin act, but from her look she perhaps does a passing good job. Might have to YouTube her. And she does have the right look! Very close, to my eye. Nice choice. Very interesting. And quite close. Might have to posted Tamsin as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NordVolf Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 ... I dunno Bon, some of those choices seem kinda off. When are you making this movie, 1986? ("It's like some kind of....hot tub time machine") Lot of concessions being made... LOL! Great analogy! Love it, and in large part because it's so very accurate. But you're right. I've taken a lot of liberties. But we are talking about a fictional universe, and since I'm nowhere near able to make a Real Life movie, let alone entice (and pay!) actors of some of the caliber here to act in it, this is pure, unadulterated fantasy. Well... Maybe... I guess what this has really become for me as I've been working on it isn't so much about the realism of making a movie, but what actors inspire me for developing their Cornellverse character counterparts. Perhaps in... oh, I don't know... a diary, let's say. Other than that, I'd really have to think about it. I'd cut the actual cast down a lot (getting all those people enough screen time to show/develop their characters would turn the movie into an 18 hour, three film trilogy. ) and many of the names too. I hear you. This cast is huge. Can you imagine doing the entire Cornellverse?! But, well, you know me. I'm verbose. So 18 hour, three film trilogies aren't beyond me. Oh, and Remi? Not everyone knows that you call me Bon because we met in City of Heroes, and you first came to know me as my main character, Bonaventure. Well... they do now... - NordVolf aka Bonaventure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that said, if that first photo is decently up to date, she looks fabulous for her age. I might not cast her as Cherry Bomb but I wouldn't object to casting her in some romantic home movies.

Remianen Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Sorry, I forget not everyone knows her real name. Melissa Anderson, aka 'Cheerleader Melissa', aka 'Raisha Saeed', aka 'Alissa Flash' http://www.cheerleadermelissa.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/untitled1.png http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2790/4214613092_b0b2f8253f.jpg (As Alissa Flash) http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Wrestling/Gallery/Reunions/2006/06/14/melissa-mariko.JPG (with Mariko Yoshida) It's mainly the cheekbones that stand out plus the fact that she could actually perform in the match clips and such that are bound to be peppered throughout the film.

Prophet Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 For Farrah Hesketh, maybe Olivia Wilde? Who I always thought of when I saw her. Or maybe I'm just always thinking of Olivia Wilde. (Strong possibility. lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay. Now this I could see. I've never really liked the Alissa Flash name for her. The modern sounding first name that resembles her real one is good. But Flash? There's no flash to her. Flash is more a speedball's name. Cherry Bomb would fit her so much better. Of course, she does seem to have a penchant for names that don't quite fit. CHEERLEADER Melissa? REALLY? Lacey Von Erich or Velvet Sky looks so much more like a cheerleader than Melissa ever has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NordVolf Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 Actually, I knew what Remi meant. My 'Mellisa Sue Anderson' was meant as a joke, though it seems Cappyboy took me seriously. But seriously... Sorry, I forget not everyone knows her real name. Melissa Anderson, aka 'Cheerleader Melissa', aka 'Raisha Saeed', aka 'Alissa Flash' What?! A wrestler? You want to use a wrestler? ! You want to cast, as a wrestler... a wrestler?! You want to actually use a wrestler for the part of a wrestler. That's unheard of! That's insane! That is wrong on so many levels. That would be like... like... ketchup!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axDtj2bSduM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NordVolf Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 How about Deidre Hall for Lois Hudson and maybe Rebecca De Mornay as Helen Bach? You mean like these? http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/HelenBach.jpghttp://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/HelenBach_RDeMornay01.jpghttp://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/HelenBach_RDeMornay02.jpg Helen Bach --played by-- Rebecca De Mornay (Pick by Cappyboy) http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/LoisHudson.jpghttp://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/LoisHudson_DHall01.jpg Lois Hudson --played by-- Deidre Hall (Pick by Cappyboy) Well, being a Deidre Hall fan from way back (I know, dates me a lot), I could see her for Lois Hudson I suppose. For me, jury's still out on Rebecca De Mornay as Bach. I was figuring someone a bit more stocky or however you want to call it. At least someone who looked a lot more muscular and tough. And I know, Remi, I know. Not going to find that in today's Hollywood, what with the unspoken mandate on "Beautiful (ie thin) Physique" being what it is. But I wanted to at least drop these in here like this, in the formal picture format I used in the OP, so folks could see and judge for themselves, and maybe use that for their own purposes/games. Inspiration can come from unusual places, after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At first, I thought "Meh." But on doing the pictures and actually seeing it in format... Daaaaamn. That would work. Nice pick! Though I'm partial to Andrea Parker for various reasons (which incidentally date me), Olivia Wilde would be a great pick should Parker not be available for filming.

Dragonmack Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I think Reese Witherspoon would be a good fit for Suzanne Brazzle. And yeah, Andrea Parker is hot!!! I have had a major thing for her since The Pretender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Melissa started out, she was the manager for the Ballard Brothers in APW. She was like 17 or something, and looked very much the cheerleader role. Plus, I think you're discriminating against hair color. A girl doesn't have to be a blond to fit the role. She only has to be athletic looking and not obese, which Melissa is.

cappyboy Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 When Melissa started out, she was the manager for the Ballard Brothers in APW. She was like 17 or something, and looked very much the cheerleader role. Which means I probably just got to her late. I do so hate this post syndication era. You miss far too much. Plus, I think you're discriminating against hair color. A girl doesn't have to be a blond to fit the role. She only has to be athletic looking and not obese, which Melissa is. Oh definitely not. I could easily see a Christy Hemme or a Maria as face cheerleader types. Maybe even Sarita. Although Taylor Wilde does seem to be the leader of that team, "spirit" wise. It's not just the blonde thing. It's more she's too broad and tough looking to envision as a cheerleader. Picturing Melissa in the cheerleader role would be like seeing Tara or Natalya as a cheerleader. Too few frills. Too little nonsense. Too little air in the hair.

NordVolf Posted March 24, 2010 Author Share Posted March 24, 2010 Hey everyone. I've since done up some other picks for actors of the Cornellverse. Women, of course. First one I came across shortly ago: http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/SuzanneBrazzle_alt1.jpghttp://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/SuzanneBrazzle_KSackhoff.jpg Suzanne Brazzle --played by-- Katee Sackhoff Now on to others' suggestions: http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/CherryBomb.jpghttp://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/CherryBomb_MAnderson01.jpghttp://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/CherryBomb_MAnderson02.jpg Cherry Bomb --played by-- Melissa Anderson (pick by Remianen) Remi, I think you're right. I could definately see this! http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/MissMexico.jpghttp://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/MissMexico_SStock01.jpghttp://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/MissMexico_SStock02.jpg Miss Mexico --played by-- Sarah Stock aka Diana La Cazadora This one, Remi, I can definately see. While I'm a fan of Dina Meyer, something about that pick bothered me... Now I know why. Sarah is definately a better fit. And lastly: Remi, that picture of Rebecca De Mornay you posted about killed me. I forgot all about that. Didn't even realize that was her. So here it is: http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/HelenBach.jpghttp://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/HelenBach_RDeMornay01.jpghttp://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f212/NordVolf/TEW%202007/AAA/Characters/ActorPicks/HelenBach_RDeMornay02.jpg Helen Bach --played by-- Rebecca De Mornay (Pick by Cappyboy) Added above, of course.
