Who would you play?

Postby mr_thebrain » Fri Oct 13, 2006 8:16 am

If you had a chance to be in the movie, what role would you play? why?


I stated in another thread that i could gain weight and play graff.

Not really cuz i like his character, i just think i could play the crap out of the role. and its an interesting character.

In my younger days, I always wanted to play Peter. I thought that would be sweet, playing a short part, but remaining a heavy plot-device. However, now that I'm too old for that, I don't really know. Maybe Young Adult Ender?

I also wanted Crazy Tom, but just cause he so cray-zee!

Hmm...I'm too old for the Battle School roles, and way too young for the adult roles...

I'd probably be one of the random older teenagers at Command School that nobody cares about. My only other option would be Valentine at the very end of the movie, when she's like 15 or 16.

Of course, my ideal role would be Petra. She's awesome.

For EG I'd want to play Crazy Tom, like Mich said "he so cray-zee." But I think I'd be better suited for Nikolai in ES. I'm too old & pale, but I always loved how his only purpose in the story was to be Bean's friend. I think I could play that.

As Blitz said, I'm also too old to be someone at battle school but too young to be an adult...but i'd like to be Dink when he's older. During SotG before they all leave?

I could play Anderson. That is if they are looking for a guy to play the role.

Anything is possible!

And on this note, I would really enjoy picking out the soundtrack, if it didn't have a completely original score.

Not that I think it shouldn't have an original score. John Williams and Koji Kondo are two of my favorite artists. But I love listening to songs, listening for lyrics or emotions that connect with a story I'm reading.

i wish i was 5 again so i could play a bean.. buuuuut id actually enjoy playing achilles or peter, ofcourse the ones in enders game are too young for me, looking towards the shadow series, though i look extremely young fo rmy age so i could pull off a 13-14 year old achille... cept i dont have the right look for the part.

Eh...I think I might be Achilles :) I don't know. Physically, I don't fit the description of anyone else. But I'm a decent actor, I think I could pull off anything with enough makeup :)

I could probably be Petra or Valentine. Though I might run into trouble with my lack of acting experience. If they wait too long, I might actually start looking too old, but I could pull off an 11 year old for a few more years yet.
I used to hate gravity because it would not let me fly. Now I realize it is gravity that lets me stand.

I'd want to be Petra because she's awesome, even if she has a weak point or two. Plus..she gets Bean and Peter. The super-intelligent! Then there are Dink and Achilles, also.. She also, in some ways, helps connect Bean and the Wiggins.

I'd have to go out for Sister Carlotta, or if they got as far forward as the world of Path, Mu Pao--what a cameo! ;^)

I'm too old to be believable as Ender's mom, though that would be a very decent part. Maybe I could do Old Val, but I ain't that beautiful.

I did do the Wizard in the Wizard of Oz once, on stage, in drag, and from the comments I got, did very well at it, too. There weren't enough males trying out, and though I hoped for the Lion, and have a low-voice (okay, I'm a female baritone!) singing voice, it doesn't have enough sheer lung power behind it to sing on stage as an adult male. The three Companions were all high school boys who were taking voice classes. But I wore some of my father's clothes for costume, well padded to turn my shape from pudgy adult female to obese adult male, and people in the audience who knew me but hadn't looked at the program didn't recognize me, and assumed that I was a man. But probably it wouldn't have been good enough to do Graff for a movie, with all the close-ups.

I'm too fat to play someone for Dragon (unless fatness doesn't count in the game, it's strategy that counts), and english isn't my mother's language (thus, I can't talk like an american, or like a british guy), but I've got acting talent (and I'm really modest. :D ). So, I think the best part for me is...Rose de Nose, or a bully from the streets of Rotterdam (if they combine it with the film), or perhaps Bernard (since he doesn't talk much, and is pretty big). But I'd prefer Rose- he's Jewish, and I'm Israeli! ^^ (and all Israel haters can go to hell, though when I get the chance and the money, I'm flying away to Canada...too much danger)

Oh, and BTW, Hi! Nice meeting y'all.
And dammit, it's heavily raining outside my house :x

The only role I'd be fit for would be an older dink, I'm too old for battle school, and I can't go to command school for another year.

Too old for Battle School and too young for adult roles, the only characters in the entire series I might be able to play are Miro and Libo in his teenage years, though I'm tall enough to play Bean in the latter parts of the Shadow series.

I wouldn't mind being any random bugger, frozen from lack of direction from the queen, in any of the old war vids. I could point to everyone I know and say, "I think that stationary bugger there is me... or maybe that one... or the one next to it, etc".

If I could be anyone in Battle School, who I think I would fit, I would be Bean. I am not trying to be cocky, or arrogant in any way, I just think I have his characteristics. I know I am arrogant. I think I am the smartest person in the world. Yet, as you just saw, I admit my faults, just as Bean does. I have always been small, yet, by a pure chance of coincidence, for the last couple of years, I have started growing faster. I am 7" taller than I was two years ago. I know it is not nearly as dramatic as Bean's, it's still something.

And by the way, NO! I am NOT genetically enhanced! (Although I would love to be; see my thread on the Enderverse Forum.)
