"Who Should They Cast?" (a fan wishlist)

What about Bill Goldberg?

Agreed.

Hope Sony is watching and taking note, Hader is looking like a fan fav. for GB3. God knows we’ll never get who we want, and will probably be suprised when and if anything happens because the new cast will be people we never even thought of.

How 'bout the cast of “hows your news?”?

What about Kristen Stewart as Kylie? Idk. Just throwing that out there as a stupid idea. Or she could just be a female recruit.

Adam Scott(Party Down): Male GB recruit (Eduardo/cocky type)

Andrea Savage(Step Brothers): Female GB recruit (tough girl type)

Michael Welch(The Ritches): Male GB recruit (charismatic/smart type)

Thora Birch(Ghost World): Female GB recruit, EPA rep, temp receptionist or tech GB recruit

Seth Rogan(Pineapple Express): Male GB recruit (slacker type)

Tyler Labine(Reaper): Male GB recruit/ tech guy

Additional Cast:

Kevin Smith: “World is coming to an end!” guy

Valarie Rae Miller(Dark Angel): "gangsta’: chick, receptionist at a client’s office or gf to a GB recruit

Bret Harrison(Reaper): client/scared dude

Vanessa Lengies(Still Waiting): ■■■■■■■■■ or gf to a GB recruit

Paul Rudd: friend of a GB recruit, a client or a boyfriend to a GB recruit

Just throwing this out there…but do you think Alyssa Milano would be interested in doing anything Ghostbusters related? I don’t know if she’s ever heard of it…but i was kinda hoping she might want to do something in the GB realm… :lol:

I’d like to see Kevin James as a ghostbuster.

Yes, awesome, I thought about this the other day, he already knows how to play the ordinary New Yorker guy, he did it for years on the King of Queens.

Stephen Colbert would be awesome :stuck_out_tongue:

If I hear “Oscar should be a GB” one more time I’m gonna cross the streams.

Jack Black, anyone?

Would the Be Kind Rewind reference help or hurt him in this?

well…put yourself in Oscar’s shoes. You have been the “cause” of a supernatural treat. You’ve been saved by the ghostbusters. Damn, your mother was/is a ghostbuster’s girlfriend.

The next step is: you want to became a Ghostbuster!!

Here’s a neat idea. How’s about they cast ME as Oscar? Yeah, yeah, I know. That’s all annoying and everything, but seriously, if they want a completely unknown actor to portray him, I think I’d be a good pick. Perhaps if you watch my youtube videos, you might even agree. Anyway, I whipped up a post on my website about it if you want even more reason they should cast me. Bango!

                                                  -Reuben

Sean William Scott as Oscar.

There is one and only one choice for Oscar in my opinion:

Yes.

No.

DANNY MCBRIDE!

Sarah Silverman as a new female GB.

Jason Mewes as a new GB. I couldn’t see this before, but I can see it now…ever since I saw him tone it down from his traditional role in the Viewaskew Universe in “Zack and Miri Make a ■■■■■”. He learned to do subtle comedy.

Lee Thompson Young as a new GB. Some of you might recognize him as ‘Cyborg’ from Smallville.

Bill Hader as a GB? Okay, yeah I’ll agree to that.

I definitely cannot see this. it’s almost like pulling names out of hat of random comedians. both of their tones wouldn’t work for a GB movie.

now i can see this.

Exactly. I’m thinking outside of the box. With the originals already in the movie, its not necessary to match the personalities of Venkman, Stantz, Spengler, and Zeddemore.

Silverman and Mewes may be comedians, but they’re also actors. Plus they come off as real people on and off screen. I never would have chosen Mewes if all he’s ever done is “Snoochie Boochies”. Working with Kevin Smith all these years and branching off into his own projects is strengthening his range. In “Zack and Miri Make a ■■■■■”, the only similarity with his View Askew alter ego was his labido. Other than that, he toned it down alot and exhibited subtle humor that can be suitable for GB. I expected him to be his loud-mouth self in that movie, but he never was.

Silverman is definitely not the damsel in distress type of woman, nor is she butch. She’s the kind of woman who can match wits with the boys, chug a beer, be girly, take a pratfall, keep her composure, be self-depreciatingly funny when losing her cool, and wouldn’t mind engaging in gross-out humor––getting slimed. Is she perfect for GB? No. Is she qualified, I’d say so.
