Greetings Matrix fan boys, this could be your opportunity of a lifetime.

I've been rethinking the look of DT and quite basically, Neo just does not suit the bad guy DT is. Now, I'm flat out for somethign to change to. what I need a grumpy and bad tempered gun toter with a degree of coolness, that also has a close resemblence to Marcus. Neo just does nto look like Aragorn in build or facial features.

So, can you help? Ive had the suggestion of Bruce Cambell, which I really like. And appears to be availible. Suggestion I use gets first shot at using Neo - otherwise, Neo will be up for grabs.

(Now I bet that caught Matrix fanboy's attention)

Even if I don't get Neo, you'd really be doing yourself a disservice to NOT use Wyatt Earp :D

I like the Kurt Russell suggestion.

Or you could go for Mortesson pics from 'GI Jane'...*shrugs*

umm.....what about......finding a pic of the dude that plays Aragorn (can't think of his name) in another movie with perhaps a different hair style and/or different facial hair......he was in a few action movies right?

Zasz Grimm
May 1st, 2003, 10:04:02 PM
Well crap on you Charley! I was going to ask to use Neo for Zasz (Since that was my intention a while back, until I found out Mark used him) if Mark was going to give him up.

But I agree, Kurt Russell would fit. Go with pictures from Stargate.

Or perhaps soldier. But I extremely doubt Soldier would work, because he looks a bit old there...

DarthHERA

Someone is using Kurt Russell from Escape in LA (eye patch one I think). Even though, that pic Marcus just posted of the two guys is pretty awesome.

I also like the Idea of finding other non-LOTR pics of Mortenssen.

Charley
May 2nd, 2003, 01:36:28 PM
But nobody's using Wyatt Earp (for the millionth time) :D

I used Kurt Russel from Escape from New York a while back, but not anymore.

DarthHERA
May 2nd, 2003, 09:20:45 PM
Someone else is using him though. Its a secondary character, but I cant remember the character name. Its a bounty hunter type.

Sage Hazzard
May 2nd, 2003, 09:31:57 PM
Well, I'll try and make a suggestion. Not only to win the prize (Neo!!!!) but to put a stop to a Bruce Campbell usage. :D I had my ol' eye on him, for a future thingy of mine. :)

Okay, how about the Saint of Killers from the Preacher comics? Hmm... let me find a cool pic of him I remember. The guy looks awesome, dresses like a cowboy, and looks a little like Aragorn. It's a painting though, but by one of the best artists in the biz (Glenn Fabry).

I'll try and think of others, as well as get that pic for your viewing pleasure. :)

Charley
May 3rd, 2003, 12:02:42 AM
Saint of Killers is a great recommendation. I almost used him for a character.

Everyone loves a Cowboy. :D

To give you an idea how mean this character is, watch Unforgiven where Clint Eastwood threatens to burn down the town if they shoot, and kill the shooters family from their wife down to their children well the Saint of Killers does it without asking. This dude is a mean you know what.

Arya Ravenwing
May 5th, 2003, 04:13:15 AM
Yeah but he's still a cowboy. That may work on backwater planets, but it ain't gonna fly here in the big city, buster. There's no nerfs to ride herd on here, so you best pack up yer bedroll and light a shuck.

Andraq Novkar

((Zasz here, btw. ))

I was just sitting here, thinking of what would do Turbogeek credit and look like Aragorn.

Perhaps Viggo Mortenson from "A Perfect Murder" ?

He looks a bit younger than he does as Aragorn, clean shaven if I remember correctly. Might suit him?

Taylor Millard
May 5th, 2003, 02:18:21 PM
Well Neo looks younger than Aragorn anyway.

I'd just do a search for Mortenson pics and see what you find.

Andraq Novkar
May 5th, 2003, 02:21:32 PM
Which at the moment, is what I am trying to do. Trying to find a good pic from A Perfect Murder.

:)

Andraq Novkar

Here's a picture of Viggo from an upcoming movie.

Andraq Novkar

Is that any good for you, Mark?

I am not going to use Viggo forDT

what about robert carlyle?

he looks a little like viggo in some shots; i was thinking maybe using pics of him from 'plunkett and maclaene' would be a good choice.

Camdyn Fields

Begbie suits DT. Nasty guy who likes to watch other people suffer. The bar scene is more funny because he throw's a glass down on the crowd, and when it smashes a girl in the face, he races down to investigate. Some guy asks him "Who TF are you?" and he gets a kick to the balls. They have the crunch...it's painful.:x <--spoilered for those who haven't seen Trainspotting :p

Ummm,....I hate to pee on your prarade guy's...But the (((("Kurt Russel")))) pic is currently being used by (((("Saurron")))) as a CHR. So I guess you can mark that one off your list huh?...=̃

May 10th, 2003, 01:10:39 PM
And your point?.... The CHR. is still claimed nonetheless..... If someone wants to use it, I would suggest them pming Saurron for permission before even considering the pic for themselves. It's only good manners.... :)

Zasz Grimm
May 10th, 2003, 04:27:17 PM
Yes, the character base is claimed, but to have not been used in anything, and to just sit there, doing nothing on a character for around 8 months, is a bit overboard, isn't it? I would say it's considered warehousing and thus the person who has it should be asked to relinquish his or her hold.

And yes, we knew that the character picture was taken, hence why they all moved on to different people. :)

DarthHERA
May 10th, 2003, 05:26:47 PM
Yeah, it was Saurron's character I was referring too, but couldnt remember the name. Thanks Sliff.


I still think if its claimed even if its not active right now, a PM about using it is just good form.

rin
May 10th, 2003, 05:34:30 PM
Yes Zasz,...move along. The “Russel” character has been collecting a bit of dust indeed.lol But like I said, not only is it a registered CHR,...Its taken...Simple as that. =̃

As far as it being relinquished is entirely up to the one who now owns it. I assure you, that’s not going to happen. And since when does a CHR have an expiration date on it?

Nice try though. :)

Zasz Grimm

I never said it did have an expiration date.

Anywho, moving on.

SAURRON
May 10th, 2003, 07:57:41 PM
Yes the character is going to be used. No it is not up for grabs, but thanks for asking. Those that know me personaly know that there have been things that have slowed my rp progress/time allowance if you want to call it that.

Thank you Hera/Sliff for speaking up for me while I was at work all day.

There are times you put away a character for a few months, but AFAIAC, I say that if it's not used for a certain length of time, my personal rule is six months, it expires. And as such, I've already expired any claim apart from the three character I am using right now. That may not be a SW-Fans rule, it may not ever be adopted, but it's doing the right thing by other people. I'm going to personally stay with it, no matter what others think, cause, simply put, anything else to me simply sucks and is inconsiderate.
