Futurama: Live Action

[Reply #200 on:]

Listen I love Tobey Maguire A LOT. But I just don't think he's the right guy to play Fry. He's more of a serious actor. BUT, I do know who could play Fry -if he hasn't been said before- Jamie Kennedy. He has the hair, he's crazy, and funny, but can be serious at the same time. I vote for him! Who's with me or willing to reply?

EDIT: I just noticed TOTP!      

[Reply #201 on:]

I agree with ya Spacedal. Tobey Maguire is more of a serious actor. I would love to see Jamie Kennedy as Fry.

[Reply #202 on:]

Thank you Futurama Nerd! 1 down, about 3000 more to go. 

[Reply #203 on:]

Your welcome 

[Reply #204 on:]

I'd like to withdraw my last statement by replacing it with this: 1 down about 6000 more to go! 

[Reply #205 on:]

And I'll help you with that.
Together we'll get them by the thousands!   

[Reply #206 on:]

Oh how kind of you. 

[Reply #207 on:]

Can I vote too? Cause Jamie Kennedy would be a VERY convincing Fry. Yessir, buddy.

[Reply #208 on:]

 ! YAY!!!! That's 3 votes for Jamie Kennedy! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

[Reply #209 on:]

chalk me down for Jamie Kennedy, too.

[Reply #210 on:]

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAY! *Coughs*. 4! Yay!    Jamie Kennedy! I mean come on people, look at his adorable face!


See?

I've painstakingly read through the entire list and am starting a site that will show all the possible candidates. Enjoy!

[Reply #212 on:]

Wait, wait, wait! How can Conan O'Brien be Fry if he's made a cameo of himself on the show before? Plus he's to old to be playing a 25-year-old same with Brandon (SP?) Fraiser. Here are my top 3 choices:

1. Jamie Kennedy! 
2. Scott Williams (I think that's his name)
3. Seth Green

and I'll say Tobey Maguire only cause he's one of my favorite actors.

[Reply #213 on:]

We should do that. Have everyone vote off those who they think wouldn't be a good choice, and then choose who would. This should be very interesting.

[Reply #214 on:]

I'll buy it. So should we open a thread for this?

[Reply #215 on:]

Yea. Great idea! But what would we call it? "Futurama: Live Action" is already taken somewhere.

[Reply #216 on:]

Just call it Futurama: Live Action: Fry (Than Leela, Than Bender, etc.) The Poll! Shall I do the honors?

[Reply #217 on:]

Yes! Do the honors Spacedal. Start a revolution 

[Reply #218 on:]

Alrighty Then! Here it is my friends. The Fry Poll!

[Reply #219 on:]

I never noticed this before, but I think WWE superstar Lita should be a top contender to play Leela.  The similarities are uncanny.

What do you think, Spacedal11?

[Reply #220 on:]

I don't know. Show me a picture and I'll give you an answer. But I need more nominations (wrong word) for Leela to put up a poll.

[Reply #221 on:]

2 Spacedal11- I'm not sure this will help, but...

[Reply #222 on:]

*Looks at the photos* Eh. That does help. And I understand with the body but not so much in the face. But I will still put her on the poll for you Fryfan.

[Reply #223 on:]

I figured she could pass off as Leela.  Her storyline on RAW is sort of Leelaish.

Also if HHH, the Rock, and Edge could do films, then why not Lita.

Also when you do the Professor, you should have Leslie Nielsen in the poll.

Key word being if.  Have you actually watched any of their movies?

[Reply #225 on:]

Ok people I'm kinda pissed to say but I think The Fry Poll is unanimous. (SP?) So if they ever made a live action movie Seth Green would play Fry runner up would be Jamie Kennedy. Guess it didn't work Futurama Nerd huh? Anyway! I need at least 8 more nominations for Leela so I can start that poll. This is what I have so far:

Lita the WWF superstar from Fryfan
 &
Angilena Jolie from me and other people who have mentioned her.

Who else!?

[Reply #226 on:]

How about Uma Thurman? She can do martial arts movies pretty well.

[Reply #227 on:]

Aww, Seth Green? Ok then. Maybe another day Spacedal. As for Lita the WWF superstar as Leela, I just don't see it.

[Reply #228 on:]

Candidates for Leela mentioned in this thread:

• Helen Hunt (DocThunder - after watching the same thing, I can only agree with him)
• Jeri Ryan (Kryten, et al)
• Heather Graham (DocThunder)
• Kristin Johnston (Teral)
• Carrie Ann Moss (M Jackson)
• FemJesse (FemJesse)
• Amy Smart (Fryfanspyorama)
• Drew Barrymore (Fryfanspyorama)
• Chyna (Squeaky)
• Leelee Sobieski (fryfanspåyorama)
• Jeniffer Garner (Kurtpicachu2001)
• Jennifer Lopez (mint)
• Lita (Fryfanspyorama)
• Angelina Jolie (Spacedal11, et al)

Of those my clear favorites are Helen Hunt, Jeri Ryan and Kristin Johnston.

[Reply #229 on:]

Working on it...

[Reply #230 on:]

I think Heather Graham would make a good Leela. Jennifer Lopez I can't really see it either.

[Reply #231 on:]

I can't see FemJesse being Leela. I'm sorry but it helps if they're a celeb.

[Reply #232 on:]

Fry: Seth Green with red hair
Leela:  Katey Segal obviously, i don't care how old she is
Bender:  This has gotta be the voice actor in a suit, no computer graphics....unless he looked _exactly_ like he does on the cartoon.  Not 3D, I mean drawn in with the live action.
Hermes:  I like the Dr. Dre idea, or Ice Cube
Amy:  Lucy Liu definitely
Professor:  Not a clue.  Someone insane.
Zoidberg:  Mel Brooks with a pair of foam claws and a flapper mouth thing on his face.  And sandals of course.

Katey Sagal: "Hi.  I'm Leela."

Seth Green: "Wow.  You only have one eye, and you're old enough to be my mom.  You're hot."

 

Hermes:  I like the Dr. Dre idea, or Ice Cube
Amy:  Lucy Liu definitely

The next person to suggest that Hermes should be played by a rapper, or that Lucy Liu should play Amy is getting stabbed with a fork.

[Reply #234 on:]

ouch.  ok you think of someone besides lucy liu.

[Reply #235 on:]

We already have. Actress' sugested for Amy so far in this thread:

Linda Park (Kryten)

Keiko Agena (Kryten)

Lucy Liu (Kyle, Juliet and a bazillion others)

Kristin Kreuk (Kryten)

Michelle Krusiec (Teral)

Zhang Zi Yi (~Fazeshift~)

Lauren Tom (John Pannozzi)

Soon Yi (FryFanSpyorama)

Irene Ng (FryFanSpyorama)

Ming-Na Wen (mint)

PEELers mentioned is the first to suggest that name, others might've done the same later.

[Reply #236 on:]

Teral: My name is JOHN, not Tom.

David A.: LOL, but I think, with some makeup to make her look older, Katey Sagal could play a perfect Leela. [joking] Maybe we could throw Billy West, Katey Sagal and Lauren Tom into the Youthezing tar and BOOM, instant Fry, Leela and Amy. Or we could to to Kami-sama's Lookout and ask Mr. Popo if we could use the Room of Spirit and Time. Or we could get Mothra Leo to turn into Aqua Mothra, and then into Light Speed Mothra and go back to the late 1970s or early 1980s when Billy, Katey and Lauren were younger. Or we could try to borrow Doc Brown's DeLorean...[/joking]

Kristin Kreuk! Kristin Kreuk! I think she would be a great Amy.

Yeah, she's cute but she's not Asian enough IMHO. One of her parents is Asian, and the other is white. I say go for someone pure Asian. Sorry if I sound racist.

[Reply #239 on:]

Is it time for the Amy poll? I think there's enough nominations. If so give me a week so Jeri Ryan or Angelina Jolie can be offical to play Leela. It's a tie.

 http://www.peelified.com/cgi-bin/Futurama/11-000816/#t23 

Unless someone makes a comback. Lets get the votes in! I'm still pissed about Seth Green, but I'll pull for either Angelina or Jeri.
