Hollywood Needs Your Help! Dead Or Alive Contest

By now you’ve all probably seen the pictures and videos of the upcoming blockbuster hit “Dead Or Alive”. While I think we can all appreciate the fine piece of cinema they have been working feverishly over, there’s still a nagging feeling this film still may not get the Academy recognition the source material so richly deserves. This is where I think CAG can help.

Sure, we all love Jaime Pressly, (heck she’s married to the Rubberband Man from those Office Max commercials right?), but maybe the role of Tina would be better suited in the hands of a more accomplished actress, like Jenny McCarthy. Most likely they couldn't get Jenny signed on due to her overwhelming "Game With Fame" schedule. Regardless, there are many other concerns I’m sure we all have; take Kevin Nash for example. Will he be able to push his thespian abilities to the limits and convincingly delve into the role of a professional wrestler? And a quick glance at the cast glaringly shows the oversight of one Michelle Rodriguez (what video game movie can be taken seriously without her?).

Obviously, there are some roles in need of some tweaking and here’s your chance to give this epic drama the cast it deserves. In this exciting contest you take on the role of Casting Director and be an integral part in the making of the blockbuster, Oscar dominating, tour de force that is Dead Or Alive!

Trailer:

Zack IS Dennis Rodman. Why they didn't do that in the movie, I don't understand.

Bass = Hulk Hogan

Not sure about the rest atm, but for the love of God, Zack should have been Rodman....
 
[quote name='evilmax17']Clarification: Do we have to post a full cast list?[/QUOTE]

Eh, we'll make it a little easier I guess. How about recasting at least 5 out of the 11 roles?
 
I guess my best five picks...

Zack -> Dennis Rodman
Ayane -> Chiaki Kuriyama
Leon -> Naveen Andrews
Bass -> Hulk Hogan
Kasumi -> Norika Fujiwara

Terrible picks, but the best I can do in 2 minutes.
 
Bayman - Daniel Cudmore (dude that played Colossus in X2/3)
Bass - Macho Man Randy Savage
Ryu - Jet Li
Christie - Maggie Grace
Zack - Wesley Snipes

Yeah, a montley crew, but oh well.
 
I'd happily accept the ' Dead Or Alive Kasumi Figure' as a booby prize.


Ok - We know DOA isn't about gameplay or plot, its about babes and jiggly boobies. That said - Here is my cast :

Kasumi -> Rio Natsume


Tina Armstrong -> Shania Twain...who better to be the cowgirl with big thingies? Just needs a little hair-dye.


Ayane -> Ewa Sonnet

Of course, we'd need an understudy of some other chick



Bass -> Donald Gibb, a.k.a Ogre from Revenge of the Nerds

And last, but certainly not least, Rya Hayabusa -> Bronson Pinchot. You may know him from his 'Perfect Strangers' fame , but as evidenced in his work below - he would make an excellent ninja.

 
Tina- Trish Startus. Why not get someone to do the role that plays a fighter every day. Plus she's in the WWE so her acting skills are probably pretty good.

Zack- Chris Tucker. It would funny as hell seeing Chris Tucker in a green Faux Hawk. He also had some fighting experience form the rush hour series.

Helena- Scarlett Johansen. Nice young upcoming actress. This role would really boost her career. (not that her career is bad now anyways.)

Bayman- Jean Claude Van Dam. His reserection!!!!

Leon- Chuck Norris. make him shave and give him a turban, he would fit the role perfectly. Plus who doesn't want to see Chuck Norris vs. Jean claude

Christie- Cameron Diaz. They have the same body type, and she was an EX- Charlies Angel. Or my second Choice would be the musician Pink. She is a bad ass chick that could fill that role.

Bass- How can you not like the pick of Hulk Hogan, Bass is really just a Hulk Hogan rip off. Kevin Nash is a good choice but he is getting old, and showing it unlike Hogan.

Don't know any good japanese actors outside chan and Li, so Those are my picks.
 
I refuse to participate in this contest for the simple reason that after watching that trailer I am convinced that Dead Or Alive will be the worst movie ever made. Not just worst video game movie (not that that's not an accomplishment all in its own) but the worst movie ever made period.

Actually I will say this...

They should cast Wombat as Tina Armstrong because he has great legs.
 
On today's installment of "Dead or Alive!: The Musical!: The Movie!" the roles are being filled by:

Al Pacino as Bayman

I hate to give up my chances but you should win. Excellent choices and put together well.
 
[quote name='TurkeyOnRye']Wait... this is a Uwe Boll movie, right?[/QUOTE]

Nope, Corey Yuen is directing it. He's directed quite a few martial arts type movies in the past.
 
Zack - Wayne Brady, chokin' bitches
Ryu Hayabusa - Tony Jaa, from Ong Bak
Christie Allen - Laura "Thug" Foy, formerly of G4TV, now of On10.net. The likeness is uncanny.
Leon - Steven Seagal
Tina Armstrong - Stacy Keibler, fits like a glove.

:shock: Holy shit! When did Ashlee Simpson become a 10?! She's way hotter than her sister in this picture.


[quote name='gunm']
ryu hayabusa - ken watanabe (Last Samurai)

We must destroy Gotham City!
 
[quote name='gundamxzero']Hey, where did that picture go? I thought yours was the best[/QUOTE]

Heh, thanks for the vote of confidence guys!

Looks like my webhost is down right now...hopefully it's back up soon..if not I'll upload it somewhere else. Anyone know the best free image host?
 
Katie Lash .... Ayane
Bruce Timm .... Bass
Beth Wong .... Tina Armstrong
David Abrams.... Leon
Eric Idol .... Christie Allen
Steven Blum .... Zack
 
[quote name='shipwreck']Nope, Corey Yuen is directing it. He's directed quite a few martial arts type movies in the past.[/QUOTE]

Well, I dunno who that is but Uwe better watch out. Some is after his "Most Asstacular Game Movie Director" title. I think "Most Asstacular Movie Director of All Time" title is safe though.

And go Evophile. Talk about stepping up your game. Plus, with Stratus, Silverstedt,and Heigl he gave us the big bouncing jubblies we all know DOA is truly about.
 
[quote name='Maklershed']By the way .. does anyone else think of "Mortal Kombat 2" when they see this DOA trailer?[/quote]
^exactly my thoughts

heres my list, even though evo killed it..

Bayman......Vinnie Jones (come on, you know people will go nuts cuz "the juggernaut's" in it, plus hes got the look for the part.)

Christie......Milla Jovovich (shes got the moves, plus she was born in Russia or somethin, so shes got the foreign thing goin on (i know, but its close enough))

Zack.....Omar Epps (for some reason, their heads seem to be shaped the same)

Ayane....Ziyi Zhang (okay, so her tits arent poppin outta her shirt, but shes got the petite thing and moves down)

Leon....Oded Fehr (starring in new RE movie, born in Israel..close enough to Italty right? http://i.imdb.com/mptv1.gif)


Bonus: Ryu....Tony Jaa (hes got the moves for the part, see Ong Bak)
