Casting Speculation: Plan 9 From Outer Space
Posted in Casting Speculation by nightfall 05/27/2008 @ 10:42 a.m.
Ayup. You got it. The worst movie ever made is being remade!! Only this time as "serious" horror movie. Uh huh. Sure. Just like Tim Burton's Ed Wood was a "serious" biopic (while it may have been good, it wasn't serious).
Yeaaaaah. There is an official film site (film due out 09/09/09) here via JoBlo.
Go ahead and vote, if you dare, here. Enjoy!
Casting Speculation: Flash Gordon

Flash! AAAAHHHHaahhhhhhhh!
Rumor has it Columbia is trying to score the film rights to Flash Gordon. Let's pray it's better than the scifi show.
AICN requests they keep the Queen song, which I'll second. Perhaps we should make that vote-able role in the casts...
I myself always wondered why they picked a Swede to play a character named Ming. Not a lot of Swedish Mings around that I know of, but I'm not Swedish. Who knows?
Go cast it to keep it from turning in to the crapfest it is on tv. Thanks Jim who made the cast three years ago!
Next a remake of Flesh Gordon!
Update: Sony wins the bidding war!
Casting Speculation: Convoy

In a tiny blurb at the end of this article about Highlander, it says the same dudes that wrote Iron Man, Art Marcum and Matt Holloway, also wrote a remake of the based-on-a-song Sam Peckinpaw trucker classic, Convoy.
I don't know who can replace Kris Kristofferson, Ali MacGraw, and Ernest Borgnine, but we can try. All three are still alive, oddly enough, perhaps they can star again...
Let's cast it!
Oh, oh, I know, a Transformers/Convoy cross over! They can run from the law in Optimus Prime and Ironhide and Ratchet! Michael Bay can even direct!
Casting Speculation: Highlander

Highlander?!? Uhhh... okay. Sure. There can be only, what? Eight? Nine of them? Plus a tv show?
Well anyhow, the dudes who wrote Iron Man (you'd think they could get a better gig, but maybe they're fans) will write the "reimagining" for Summit Entertainment.
Turns out we have a cast already! Thanks to Shok_Xone_Studios back in 2005. Woo!
It appears as though Eric Bana is in the lead for Macleod with James McAvoy close behind on our cast. I rather like the idea of Gerard Butler as Macleod and Michael Clarke Duncan as The Kurgan, but Clancy Brown is The Kurgan. After Carnivale, he's proven he can still scare the pants off people.
Go vote , so we can have only one!
Casting Speculation: Robocop

Also from the same story as the previous post, MGM wants to remake Robocop as well! Ambition without creativity, thy name is MGM!
No actual details are in the story, so perhaps it's just a test balloon. Red balloon! Red Balloon!
We has a few casts for Robocop, so I guess MGM wasn't the only one with the idea including ocp_vice_president who had the idea three years ago!
Vote here on ocp_vice_president 's cast
Or here on Dan 's Robocop vs Terminator cast.
