BoC: The Movie! Part IV: Electric Boogaloo

Good news, everyone!  Some executive decided it'd be a good idea to make a movie of our little site.  I told him that was a terrible idea and then he gave me a suitcase full of money so now I'm on board!  I thought I'd help out our new friends and give them some casting ideas.  First up: the villains of our story, the Anaheim Ducks.  Tomorrow is the clumsy comedy relief, the Sharks, and then we'll wrap it up on Friday with our heroes, the Kings.  Tune in to see who your favorite player will be played by and if I miss anyone let me know in the comments.

The part of Ryan Getzlaf will be played by Sam Rockwell

Ryan Getzlaf is the chief villain of our film and thus he needs to be played by an actor with the acting chops to carry the role.  Rockwell is well-versed in playing dumb jackasses and would serve as a worthy foil to our heroes.  Plus, while he's researching the role he could give Getzlaf tips on how to cover up his balding.

Corey_perry_medium

The part of Corey Perry will be played by Tilda Swinton

Swinton knows how to play a bitch and the resemblance is uncanny.

Star-divide

Randy-carlyle_medium

The part of Randy Carlyle will be played by Randy Quaid

Quaid and Carlyle look very similar and Quaid knows how to be a dick.

15ducks650_medium

The role of Scott Niedermayer will be played by Morgan Freeman

This one's a little off the board but the personalities are similar and both can grow a mean beard.  Besides, what's wrong with a black guy playing a white guy?  You're not racist, are you?  Are you?  You should be ashamed of yourself.

Lupul_medium

The role of Joffrey Lupul will be played by Pauly D

Joffrey Lupul (pictured here with a charming woman who I imagine is a school teacher) is a tanning pretty boy douche bag that doesn't care about much of anything.  Pauly D of Jersey Shore fame will have to act really hard in his debut but I think he can pull it off.

Teemu_medium

The role of Teemu Selanne will be played by Rufus Sewell

This one's pretty obvious and most people see the resemblance, but I always feel bad when I say it.  I mean, it should be Teemu playing Rufus in a movie, not the other way around.  It really should be someone like Josh Duhamel since both make me uncomfortable in my sexuality.  Wait, did I just type that?  Where is the backspace?  No, I think that's publ-

2008_iihf_hockey_world_championships_day_15_du-ag1xtjpll_medium

The role of Saku Koivu will be played by Patrick Swayze

This one's a little off-the-board, since there's not much of a resemblance, but for some reason I think Swayze would really "get" the character.  I don't know why, it's just a feeling I have.  So, all we need to do is give Swayze a call and... what's that?  Oh.

(True story: A buddy of mine pointed out that Saku looks like an older Spencer Pratt but I decided not to do that one because it seemed too mean.  So instead I made fun of him for having cancer.  I think you'll agree that comparing someone to Spencer is worse than cancer.)

T1_thanksgiving_medium

The role of Todd Marchant will be played by John Malkovich

The easiest casting decision of all, these two are practically brothers.  The only difficulty Malkovich will have when preparing for the role is learning how to score on an empty net and how to fall over a lot.

Snaps_parros5_medium

The role of Jonas Hiller will be played by Jamie Lee Curtis

The Perry-Swinton casting choice was mostly me being a dick (and seriously, screw Corey Perry) but Hiller and Lee Curtis do look a lot alike.  I bet if you went into Hiller's fridge you'd find a shit load of Activia.  And then you'd wonder what that smell was and leave.

Jean-sebastein-giguere-13_medium

The role of J.S. Giguere will be played by Bill Paxton

I couldn't think of anyone who either looks like J.S. Giguere or make a good joke at his expense so I decided to cast Bill Paxton because hey, who doesn't love Bill Paxton?  Plus, the Ducks could be losing and Paxton could scream, "It's a duck hunt, man, a duck hunt!"

Pedro_medium

The role of George Parros will be played by George Parros

Who else are you going to get?  Do you see a lot of giant mustachioed douche bags walking around?

And for the bloggers...

Milhouse_medium

The role of Earl Sleek will be played by Milhouse Van Houten

This is perfect.  The only problem is that I don't now if Milhouse can sing.

Muppets-animal_medium

The role of Spade will be played by Animal

You don't know what the hell he's saying but you can't help but love him.

 

Tomorrow: the Sharks.

You guys see George Lucas on the Daily Show last week? (it’s on thedailyshow.com if you want to watch it – oh what the hell, link right here) They were talking about the difference between fans of the two trilogies and Jon said:

My son’s favorite movie is The Phantom Menace. And I have explained to him, "No it’s not."

and it’s Star Wars … not Star Wars 4. not A New Hope. Or anything else. Just Star Wars. Don’t mess with perfection.

I wish I could rec this x 1,000,000.

Getzlaf/Rockwell: Obviously, Rockwell has way too much hair.
Tilda Swinton/Corey Perry: How did you find such perfect photos? (And what the hell is Perry doing in his?)
Niedermayer/Freeman: I love how you show respect for Scotty by tapping Morgan Freeman to play him, but then you go and choose just about THE WORST photo of Niedermayer publicly available (oh, the hair!).
Koivu/Swayze: Just a classic Rudy thing to do.
Marchant/Malkovich: Inspired. But Malkovich is going to need his hands replaced by CGI stone hands.
Hiller and GIguere: Where the hell did you find these photos of the players??

And the BEST parts: Earl/Millhouse and Spade/Animal. Holy crap, I think this post needs to be dipped in gold and put up on the BoC cyber-mantel.

Thanks, Rudy. I got four hours of sleep, I have class from 8:30am til 7:30pm, and now I’m going to be giggling like a maniac all day.

You know, at first I didn’t think Tilda Swinton had the acting capabilties to pull off that level of douche. I mean, that is a DEMANDING level of douche. But she’s classically trained. With the right motivation, she could pull it off nicely. I was going to suggest Alan Rickman (Snape from Harry Potter). Classically trained and plays a big bag of dick nicely. Swinton looks more the part though.

Oh good lord. I laughed so hard I frightened my loved ones, my neighbors, and my dog. Umm, that’s not so unusual. But the brilliance of this is without question. It deserves three Rosetta erasers and five thousand Montezuma sundial watches at least.

I honestly thought Marchant was Alton Brown at first! And I definitely see the little green arrow travelling through Hiller’s bowels. Where on earth did you get that pic of the My Little Parros Doll?

Tilda is a classy bitch, though. Oh right, acting.

For Marchant, I go with Evan Handler from Californication. Look him up if you’ve never seen the show.

I don’t know if I did a good enough image search to really drive it home, but here’s one side-by-side.

Those lips! Is “Bart” onto something?

For the supporting role of locker room hangabout Rob Niedermayer, may I suggest a cameo appearance by….

…the incomparable Stephen Baldwin!

Heh, Rob’s gone, but if that’s legal, then who’d be a suitable actor for Kyle Calder?

I’ll say Giguere looks like Jason Statham:


Plus both have annoying accents. Case closed.

Have you seen The Bank Job with Jason Statham? Great movie and far higher quality than the usual action flicks he does.

“True story: A buddy of mine pointed out that Saku looks like an older Spencer Pratt but I decided not to do that one because it seemed too mean. So instead I made fun of him for having cancer. I think you’ll agree that comparing someone to Spencer is worse than cancer.”

When I saw the picture of Swayze I thought, “Ouch”. After reading the above addendum I have to nod my head in agreement. I’m ashamed that I might have equated Spencer with cancer in the past, but clearly he is worse.

The role of Joffrey Lupul will be played by Pauly D

Does this mean that Lupul’s new BoC nickname is now “Guido”?

So, all we need to do is give Swayze a call and… what’s that? Oh.

I think this is where he covered that…

Meg did Pauly D and Swayze, I think, Nut did Jamie Lee Curtis and Animal.

Silly Rudy, everyone knows that the Kings are the comic relief of the NHL.

Great post, I’m looking forward to the rest of the series.

Just look at the shirts those two are wearing.
