Re: Fable as a movie?
A movie in the Fable universe... that might be cool, but a movie actually based the Fable game... not so much.
For instance, I'd see a movie about Archon, maybe one about Maze or the Guildmaster in their youth, or even Scarlet Robe... but one about the Hero, from Fable 1 or even Fable 2 I would not like.

Re: Fable as a movie?
An interesting point - I mean, with some of the history they have already created within Fable it would be awesome to see them expand upon some of that and to find out about other characters in more depth. Even the guy near the guild getting bullied said he used to be a hero so even he has a story.
Maybe the whole rebellion thing that the guildmaster is said to have been part of before he got all old and wise - or all the Old Kingdom stuff...

Re: Fable as a movie?
I think if we put James Earl Jones into the gym and maybe pumped him with steroids he would be a perfect Thunder.
Or we could use this guy...
I think Kirsten Dunst could play Theresa well:
Chuck Barris as Maze:
Orlando Bloom as our Hero:
I could see Johnny Depp as Jack of Blades:

Re: Fable as a movie?
If I was making the movie, I would cast the following... In order of appearance.
For a younger (in his 20s-30s) Hero I would have Orlando Bloom
For a middle aged (in his 40s-50s Hero, Vin Diesel or Ron Perlman
For an old fart (in his 60s-80s) Hero, got me there.
Theresa, Kirsten Dunst or Milla Jovovich.
Maze, Bill Nighy, Ian McKellen, or Christopher Lee
Guild Master, Patrick Stewart, nobody else could play that role better!
Whisper, any black chick will do. There are so many that would fit, but I would want to see an unknown actress, a new face.
Scythe, Morgan Freeman (for a flesh Scythe), James Earl Jones as Scythe's Voice(if Scythe is computer generated)
Briar Rose, Kate Beckinsale
Thunder, Michael Duncan Clarke hands down! (or The Rock)
Twinblade, I can only think of one beefed up oldish fart, :w00t: Hulk Hogan :w00t:. LMFAO
Jack of Blades, Viggo Mortensen (Aragorn)
Lady Grey, Helen Hunt
Scarlet Robe, though one here. I'm clueless. Maybe Dame Judy Dench

Re: Fable as a movie?
Holy crap Freak, that guy looks like his arms are about to explode! I can see it now half way through the fight Thunder has with the hero, bringing down his sword down when all of a sudden BANG! Muscule, bone and blood fly everywhere...
Definitely like the idea of Depp as Jack, it just seems to work so well. Have a bit of the smart **** attitude he had as Captian Sparrow only more sinister.

Re: Fable as a movie?
Gotta admit i prefere the idea of the history of the guild/albion.
Could only think of one director for the job and that would be Peter Jackson.

Peter Jackson is good (I loved 'Meet The Feebles', esp at the end when the hippo starts blasting away with the M60... I think it was an M60), but I never got into The Lord Of The Rings movies he did. No matter how hard I tried I kept falling asleep when I watched them. If it were up to me, I'd choose one of the directors from the Harry Potter movies.

Re: Fable as a movie?
lol, Thunder, not Thunder, Thunder... you get the point...
Yeah, but like I said, he would need to develop an English accent. Not a half arsed corny job at it either. I suppose he could always try to immitate an Aussie one... Americans always sound more English than anything else when they try.

Well I was thinking Naomie Harris from 28 Days Later. She proved in that that she can kick zombie butt, just throw her in an intense fight class for a few months and hey presto, you have yourself a Whipser.
