Futurama--The Non-Futurama Movie!

[on:]

The cast of "Futurama" as the cast of another movie. (Use IMDB.com if you need help with names and stuff.) For example:

"Plan Nine From Outer Space"

The Old Man=Bela Lugosi=Professor Farnsworth
The Woman=Vampira=Mom
Inspector Clay=Tor Johnson=Dr. Zoidberg ("I'm a big boy now, Johnny!" )
Jeff (The Hero)=Gregory Walcott=Kif Kroker ("That is all I am going to take from you, sir! [decks Eros] Ungh!" )
Paula (His Squeeze)=Mona McKinnon=Amy Wong
Col. Edwards=Tom Keene=Zapp Brannigan ("Get back you fool! You foolish fool!" )
The Ruler=John "Bunny" Breckinridge=Dr. Wurmstrum ("Ah, Plan Nine deals with the resurrection of the dead." )
Eros=Dudley Manlove=Walt ("It is because of you that all must be destroyed." )
Tanna=Joanna Lee=Leela
Criswell=Criswell=Nibbler ("God help us...in the future. End transmission!!" )
Patrolman Kelton=Paul Marco=Phillip J. Fry

To thy task!

I was thinking of something like this, only for Blade Runner. 
I might make a list later.

[Reply #2 on:]

Does it just have to be movies or can we extend it to tv shows, as well?

[Reply #3 on:]

How about Toy Story 2:

Woody => Fry
Buzz Lightyear => Leela (was going to have her be Bo Peep, but then she'd have next to no screen time)
Buzz II => Zapp
Emperor Zurg => Robot Devil
Mr. Potato Head => Hermes (Space Potato man)
Mrs. Potato Head => LeBarbara
Ham => Bender
Slinky Dog => Nibbler
Rex => Zoidberg
Collector => Lrrr
Collector (while in chicken suit) => Hyper Chicken Lawyer
Geri the Cleaner => Professor
Tour Guide Barbie => Amy (in fact, all Barbies would be Amy clones  )
Jesse => Malfunctioning Lucy Liu-bot
Bullseye => One of those balls Fry rode on
Stinky Pete => Donbot
Andy => Cubert (he doesn't have much screen time)

How about Sparticus

Sparticus =...Uh! Never mind.

[Reply #5 on:]

Here's my Blade Runner list with "some" explanations/variations - not sure if I've got all the spellings right.

Rick Deckard - Harrison Ford = Philip Fry
Roy Batty - Rutger Hauer = Bender Rodreguiez [in human form]
Rachael - Sean Young = Turanga Leela [with two eyes?]
Gaff - Edward James Olmos = Amy Wong [don't want her shot basically]
Captain Bryant - M. Emmet Walsh = Hermes Conrad
Pris - Daryl Hannah = Michelle [EDIT - I think that's her name]
J. F. Sebastian - William Sanderson = Kif Kroker
Leon - Brion James = Zapp Brannigan
Dr. Eldon Tyrell - Joe Turkel = Hubert Farnsworth
Zohra - Joanna Cassidy = Chrissy [girl from Mars University]
Eye-maker - James Hong = Leo (Yeo?) Wong [Name? Amy's father]
Holden - Morgan Paull = Cubert Farnsworth [Holden gets shot at the beginning]
Taffey Lewis - Hy Pyke = Scruffy
Cambodian Lady - Kimiko Hiroshige = Enis Wong [Name? Amy's mother]
Sushi Master - Zoidberg
Saleslady - Carolyn DeMirjian = Umbriel [felt like fitting her in somewhere]

I'd say to reverse the Fry/Leela roles.  Make Fry be Han Solo and Leela be Leia.  This way in Empire Strikes Back Leela will be in that skimpy-bikini and Fry will be frozen (Carbonite).   

Also have the Emperor be Mom.  And for laughs (mis)cast Zoidberg as Chewbacca.   

[Reply #9 on:]

The Princess Bride:

Wesley: Fry
Buttercup: Leela
Humperdinck: Zapp
Count Rogan: Bender (the six-fingered robot)
Inigo Montoya: Amy (minus the moustache, of course)
Fezzik: Crushinator
Albino: Kif
Miracle Max: Zoidberg, why not?
Vezzini: Hermes
Grandpa: Farnsworth
Grandson: Cubert

Yeah, but Han's the captain, and Leela's the captain.  Han's an orphan; Leela's an orphan.  That was my basis for comparison.

A.I. Artificial Intelligence

David- Bender
Gigolo Joe- Zoidberg (delightfully mismatched!  )
Monica- Leela
Henry- Fry
Martin- Cubert
Teddy- Nibbler
Blue Fairy- Mom
Dr. Know- Professor
Doctor Guy at the beginning and end- Zapp
Gigolo Jane- Amy (Sure to make Kryten salivate all over his keyboard.  )

Just to let you know, I do plan on writing a fic based on A.I.  So that's one more crappy story of mine to suffer through. 

[Reply #13 on:]

And besides, Fry and Nibbler aren't all that buddy-buddy either, at least not as much as Han/Chewy

[Reply #14 on:]

That's true too.

[Reply #15 on:]

I have a total feeling of deja vu going on here. Now was it done on this board or not oh well. Ah now I remember it was the hipjoint and Kryten and I were discussing which Futurama characters corispond best with Farscape characters here was the conclusion.

John Crichton-Ben Browder-Phillip Fry
Aeryn Sun-Claudia Black-Turonga Leela
Ka Dargo-Anthony Simcoe-Flexo
Rygel XVI-Johnathen Hardy-Bender
Chiana-Gigi Edgley_Amy Wong
Crais-Lani Tupu-Zapp Branigan
Stark-Paul Goddard-Kif
Pilot-Lani Tupu-Hermes Conrad
Jool-Tammy Macintosh-Michelle
Scorpious-Wayne Pygram-Professor Farnsworth

Of course this is just the series three main cast but I don't think we came up with any other comparisons. Oh is this the first none movie one

Rats, I should have thought of using Farscape.  I love that show.  (That and Futurama are, IMO, the two best shows on the air.)

I like most of those picks.  Fry and Leela as John and Aeryn is perfect.  They've got similar storylines going on.  And the image of a tiny Bender hovering around on a throne stealing everything in sight is hilarious.     Zapp would be good as Crais (especially with some of the later eps implying that he had a thing for Aeryn/Leela).  And Chiana and Amy seem like a pretty good match.

Apart from that, I'd change Scorpy to Mom.  She's more devious than Prof. Farnsworth is.  Pilot I'd cast as Zoidberg, simply to see a six-armed Zoidy being left alone in that den while the others go off to have an adventure.

Ka Dargo could be Kif since they both had things with Chiana/Amy.  Sure Dargo's didn't work out, but I'd like to see Kif trying to hold that sword-blaster of Dargo's.   

I'm not too sure about the rest.  I guess I'd cast Free Waterfall Jr. as Stark and keep Michelle as Jool.  Definitely use Lrr and his people as the Scarren's though.

[Reply #18 on:]

Yeah we had the idea of using Zoidberg as Zhaan but decided Zhaan was more competent as a doctor than poor Zoidy. I've been think though maybe Zoidberg could work as NamTar from DNA mad scientist I think that would be cool. 
The reason Hermes was for personality reasons, hermes keeps PE running the same as Pilot keeping Moya running.
Dargo was hard to cast from the Futurama characters because there is no one like him, that's why I went with a non essential character like Flexo come to think of it maybe Morbo would work better.
The Professor was choosen because Like Scorpy he is not evil just amoral and some what misguided.
FYI I drefinilty agree with Farscape and Futurama being the undeniably greatest shows on TV at the moment.

I'd like to see that fanfic, haven't seen the film but still, 

I'm thinking of possibly doing some fanart on my Blade Runner idea. Basically nearly exactly the same script so that's why I say fanart.

You are forgotting Karmain Viraxo the Emperor, Luke Skywalker , Dash Rendar and Melk......... 

[Reply #26 on:]

Karmain Viraxo doesn't really feature except in the manual and the e-mails, although his business sure as hell does. I also left out Borsk Fey'la and a couple of others - because I ran out of Futurama characters/couldn't be bothered, the mainstream characters I thought would only suit the main characters of Futurama and they were already taken up so...

I also think Zapp would be better off as that Imperial General that's the first to get the Vader throat squeeze. You know which one I mean, the one that Vader finds his lack of faith disturbing.
