So I was playing around the other day and started wondering who would I replace certain characters or actors from a new hope with......

Luke is now played by....Daniel Radcliff
Liea is now Christina Ricci
Han is now replaced with Snake Plissken
Obi wan is now played by Anthony Hopkins
C3po is now Sonny from irobot
r2d2 is now Johnny5
Chewbacca is now ....messin; with Sasquatch
the emperor is now Christopher Walken
Boba Fett is now Zaeed from mass effect as played by Mickey Rourke

Admittedly there is alot of cheating going on...and I once again forgot to adjust for my big butt screen when saving...sorry for the skinny

Since you made a blog, instead of a thread, does that mean you're going to give us a picture of the new cast?

Casca1967

Mayhaps, I have done some research into the matter....just sayin'. Kinda struggling with crap equipment and alot of pain pill filled delusions. But I am playing around with it....looking more Mass Effecty than Star warsy though...getting ready for the release with another play through of the first two.

Tusserk

One of my buddies would get such a kick out of seeing Christopher Walken as Palpatine!! Ahahaaa. If this ever comes to exist in a visual form, I'll be showing her in a heartbeat...

Casca1967

I need a Darth Vader character....
Tie fighters are now old school cylon raiders
x-wings are star furies from babilon 5
Gramorians are now Krogan
wee qua are now klingons
ET as yoda....or Triumph the insult dog
Mario Van peebles is lando
I kinda am tempted to let Chris Tucker do the voice of c3po....all 5th element like
he may not be an actor but Dick Cheney would make a great Gran Moff Tarken
AT-ST are now 75ton Maurader mechs from battletech
Vader...Micheal Myers...there is still some good in that little boy inside or Jason from JasonX
storm troopers are now Shocktroopers from the game killzone
Melinium falcon is the Jupiter 2 from lost in space movie or an Eagle from space 1999
corellian corvette is the Normandy
Greedo is now an Andorian from Star Trek
Slave one is now Serenity from Firefly
Imperial Star destroyers will all be ships From star blazers
Bosk is a Sleestack and AG-88 is a T-1000
and Ewoks are Robear burbles from thundercats

Asok

Greedo as an Andorian has got me thinking... It would be fun to re-imagine Star Wars taking place in the Star Trek universe.

if anyone has other ideas here please do tell....I love seeing other things in my mind..
like the Dos Equis man as Obi won

TNJadeonar

Casca1967

I love it....I was leaning towards Umpa lumpas for jawas... or maybe the worm guys from Men in Black.
Ahhh. and my mind wont work...the guy from Freddy got fingered as Jar Jar binks

And all the love scenes between Anikin and amadala will be played over steven Hawkins voice box for more feeling

TNJadeonar

IG-88 is Maximilian from the Black Hole

Clone Troopers & Storm Troopers - T-800's / T-888's (cybernetic organisms covered with living tissue; 888 / Tripple-8 series referenced from the Sarah Connor Chronicles), still wearing the Trooper armor, just has better accuracy and takes way more than just a few blaster bolts to knock down and stay down.

AT-AT - the 6 legged scorpion mech from Robot Wars (1993) (aka Robot Jox 2) ( YouTube link )

A-Wings - Battlestar Galactica Vipers

C-3PO is now Dot Matrix (From Space Balls)

Love the Ideas
and are we sure Steve Buscemi wasn't Bib Fortuna...lol...perfect choice
Was leaning toward Buck Rogers thunder fighters for A-wings And Milton Bradley Starbirds for Y-wings
Klytus from Flash Gordon for Darth.
The droid army is entierly made up of ABC robots from Judge Dread
Admiral Ackbar is the creature from the Black Lagoon
I think old Spock from the movie Star Trek would be a good yoda

TNJadeonar

Lol, well, at least one thing's for certain... we nailed down Steve Buscemi as Bib Fortuna :)

I also agree about your choice for Boba Fett - Zaeed / Mickey Rourke. Perfect choice.

Old Spock I think would make a good Yoda replacement.

Definitely try to google Julia Benson if your not familiar with her. Acrobatically, Mila Jovovich would probably be just as suitable, tho just a bit lacking in the measurements department. Not sure who else, Angelina Jolie as a third candidate?

Loved the ABC robots from Judge Dread! Way more brutal than the stock B1's and B2's

Could possibly use the Judge cycles in place of speeder bikes, though the Tron light cycles could be an interesting alternative.

How about ED-209's in place of Droidekas ? Maybe swap hard shell ammunition for lasers...

All is cool and this is actually quite fun tossing around ideas for who and what could be :)

Hmm, a total re-imaging wouldn't be complete without some ImpStar Captains and Admirals too...

Idea - how about Angelina Jolie as one of the ImpStar Captains or Admirals? (Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow character reference, possibly complete with eye patch) , if you were welling to gender-swap one of the cast roles.

General Chang (Klingon) aka Christopher Plummer from ST:VI Undiscovered Country as another ImpStar Admiral

Christopher Plummer sans Klingon makeup would also make a wicked Grand Moff Tarkin

Casca1967

I like the ed-209's....with our choices I believe the droids might have won.
With the darker more ominous feel maybe Gary Oldman in his dracula form for the emperor.

Xanamiar

I know... ... Ogra from the Dark Crystal... She would work perfect as a Yoda...

((Frank Oz even did her voice))

TNJadeonar

Gary Oldman would be awesome I think for Emperor.

Ogra from Dark Crystal - hmm, not familiar, would have to google that one.

Hey, for the larger vehicle sized droids like the spider & hellfire droids - I think some 25ton battlemechs would work such as the Tarantula and Locust IIC or Solitaire.

Just a couple more ideas there.

When you think about it, if the Clone troopers were mostly comprised of T-800's (human clones also in the mix), that'd make for quite a heated and brutally epic battlefield match...

Casca1967

I love the idea of Ogra...and here I was all prepaired to bring up Mr. Miyagi.
The tarantula is my fav small mech when team with wraiths..but I always have problems keeping their damn legs glued on.
I was tring to keep the storm troopers regular types. Generic mass troop guys
Now I keep picturing famous scenes from the movie with our new characters in them...look up the scenes and let your imagination soar..

TNJadeonar

True enough, with human clone troopers, that'd be quite a meat-grinder battlefield!

Didn't know you played Battletech, much less with actual minis. Had a friend who played it, sometimes he'd bring over his books and minis, though most battletech I ever played was the PC version aka the Mech Warrior series. Was pretty fun tho - when my friend did bring over his battletech stuff, i'd pop the mechwarrior game cd's into the cd player as they had the soundtracks in audio-cd format. Lol, think i gotta que some up in winamp now for old times sake.

So, you're going to illustrate this awesomely new cast of characters at some point Casca?

Casca1967

I am trying....it's daunting (didnt spell that anywhere near right)Daughnting..dang...overwhelming...overbearing, large task...but yeah, gonna give it a shot..nearly done with Zaeed Fett. Then probably a pic of Angalina, Klytus and Christina Ricci right before the first test of the deathstars power on Alderan...of course in my movie...it ends with Clint Eastwood entering the command center on the Deathstar and shotting Grand Moff Tarkin and saying " he should have armed himself if he's gonna blow up planets with my freinds on them"...william money out of Kansas.

TNJadeonar

Lol, now that'd be a priceless scene with Clint Eastwood on the Deathstar command center.

Will be looking forward to when you do manage those pics. Even what you've shown here with Zaeed Fett, is looking really good!

Tried to update but can't load new pic...oh well, such is the trouble with drawing on one and trying to get on line with the other computer
Loaded to face book though...odd

Casca1967

OOO OOO!!!! Speeder bikes can be The flying wing that the goblin uses in spiderman...Pod raceing is the game Wipe Out XL

TNJadeonar

Bummer, now that even the initial pic that was uploaded is gone...

the Goblin flying / winged jetboard thingy would be quite cool

Horray. WIP uploaded....I should really draw the things out first. I just sorta put a blob of color where i want it kinda shaped right then fix as I go. Stopped useing lens flare to...good ol' gaussemer blur. Need a good leather refrence for the holster, kinda thinking along the lines of the movie the Shadow...maybe look up some scenes. Got some plans for the mid section armor too, more Zaeedy. Going for a leather band on the upper arm..thus the hole there. And arm tats need a major overhaul. but anyway..what I have so far..thanks

TNJadeonar

Sweeet! Love the partial visor design! Very original! Its really looking good!
