who to cast, who to cast.... (Old thread I'm reserecting)

CJBurgandy · Post by **CJBurgandy** » Mon Jun 21, 2004 6:02 pm

I had this sudden idea for a BCI comic book. One that can't be touched by copyright Laws... a robin Hood Spoof! Why you ask? You can't copyright Robin Hood. It's a collection of myths and fables mushed all together.

But who to cast as Who? I mean , CJ as Robin Hood, that's a given.

ok so lets fill in this cast list! (remember, nothing is set in stone)
Robin Hood: CJ Burgandy
Little John: Neely
Will Scarlet: Sable
Friar Tuck: Lust
Allen Adell: Jenni
Maid Marion: Kisa Lian
Prince John: Mike the child of Chaos
Sheriff: Jeremy
Guy Giovanni: Phai
King Richard: Chaos
Blind Servent: Cody
Witch: Trever
Random Merry Men: Sara, Corky, Ginger

Other people to cast: (Others that are usable: Jessie, Gary the Land Lord, Esp the Lizard, Chino the Kappa, matt-chuu, Jimmy (although I don't suggest matt or Jim), Joe and Boyd the Lesbian Collecting gay guys, Baiko the Alaska Super Hero, Concert Director with a mullet, J.W. (Spyder))I'll add more if I think of any.

and ummm lets try to come up with who all is in the Legend of Robin Hood because off the top of my head, I can't think of them all. I will edit this post as we gather more.

And if AFBM posts anything off topic, I'll erase it.

Well, let's see... My understanding of the character relationships is fuzzy at best, what with my only sources being the anthrapomorphised Disney version and Robin Hood: Men in Tights, but...

Little John and Maid Marion: 'Interests', obviously. If there are two characters that can be described as such, well, there you go. Or Neely as Little John (granted, an obvious choice, being frontline friend/cohort/roomie/you know what I mean).

Friar Tuck: Lust, for the contrast of casting a demoness as a 'person of the cloth' (some people's/group's opinions of the Church aside).

Prince John: Mike. I don't think an explanation is needed.

Will Scarlet: Possibly Cody, can't think of anyone else. My understanding of the character is fuzzy.

Allen Adell, Guy Giovanni: I've never even heard of these people.

Sheriff: Uhhh.. .. .. You know this'd be a lot easier if you actually finished the characters page.

Allen Adell is a pacifist and the only member of the merry men who is. He's a bard. The only real part of the story I've heard him mentioned is he's in love with someone who is forced to be married to someone else and Robin Hood Agrees to Resuce her. In some versions of the Story, him and Will Scarlet are mixed into one person, though Will Scarlet fights as well as sings. I personally like them as two different people.

Guy Giovanni is the Sheriff's Cousin (I think I got his name right). He's sired to kill Robin at one point.

I figured I could also use chracters from Shades of Burgundy since it's the same main character in both.

CJBurgandy · Post by **CJBurgandy** » Mon Jun 21, 2004 6:58 pm

I'm also going to call the cast members who don't post in the forum and get their two cents.

Almost everyone in the comic is a real person (or animal) I mean, Lust isn't a real person, but almost everyone else is.

AmazingFlyingBarMitzvah · Mon Jun 21, 2004 7:02 pm

Takin pre-emptive action, eh? I'm not the one that usually changes the topic.

ok so lets fill in this cast list!
Robin Hood: CJ Burgandy
Little John: Cody
Will Scarlet:
Friar Tuck: Dizzy, or one of the other animals
Allen Adell:
Maid Marion:<strike> Neely </strike>
Prince John: The demon guy
Sheriff: Lust
Guy Giovanni:

ok, IRL, Neely is like my sister... she can not be casted as Maid Marion... that's just wrong.

please people refrain yourselves from thinking of Neely and I in any kind of romantic relationship.

But can the fictional characters still show up in this cast, or just the ones based on real people?
