If there are going to be any baiters in this flick, Dom DeLuise should play the part of Jojo since they look identical.

I belive that Rowan Atkinson would make an excellent High Priest for TWAT. Always willing to help, but somehow unable to actually execute a plan successfully.

But who would play the Swedish Chef?

If I was an actor, I would play the Swedish Chef in a second. Hell, get me drunk enough and I play him anyway (bork bork bork)

I believe an old star could fit perfectly in the role of the wise policeman chasing the lads. Morgan Freeman, Sean Connery are good ideas.
But I take sir Ian McKellan very special, I would love to see a role also for him!
Me? Well, I would think about Jack Black. Or maybe even JIM CARREY…
Pity great Peter Sellers has passed away!!!!

[quote="Tastysnack"]Gary Coleman could play the smart ass Internet Cafe Manager. Every few seconds he could shout out "Whatcho Talkin' Bout Laddie?"

lol

Gary Coleman ....excellent choice...nice touch...would never have come to my mind 'Gary Coleman' ....excellent casting mate...if Gary could get the West African accent right and acting performance right , who's know where he could go with the performance ...another Travolta-like come-back.

I think this flim should be more along the lines of a comdey.

I note members suggestions. Names like: Peter Sellers,Dom DeLuise,Gary Coleman have been suggested. All comdeians.

Should a 419 movie be comedy/action flick or serious drama flim?

My suggestions:
Steve Martin to play disgruntled Lehman executive or Fort Knox treasury executive who triggers world financial collapse because of being conned by a 419 scam by Martin Lawrence.

Eddie Murphy to play the Nigerian cop in Lagos working with Jim Carrey( Secret Service agent) to hunt down Steve Martin and Martin Lawrence.

Cameo's by Mr Bean, Gary Cloleman, and John Cleese perhaps.

^^^^ Be sure that Eddie Murphy beats the living snot out of Martin Lawrence at the end, destroying two thirds of Festac City in the process.

A comedy of course! Aren't we having fun?
From a different point of view, sure, the real victim's one, this does not involve any fun at all: we all know about depression, heavy debts, suicide, kidnapping and murders that keep place in real life. But, as this should supposedly involve baiters, then it must turn into a frenzy comedy with absurd excuses, dolla chops, safaris and angry, angry and still angry lads!

We could just make Bad Boys III and have Martin Lawrence's character killed messily about half way through. Will Smith tears through Festac Town seeking the killers - cf the scene in BBII where they drive heedless through a shanty town with zero regard for human life:

Quote:

For example, after the action moves to the druglord's mansion in Cuba, the heroes commandeer his bright yellow Hummer for a getaway under fire. At one point it looked very much to me as if the Hummer drove into a pond, which would have brought an end to the chase, but no, seconds later it's back in the chase – no pond, no nothing. What happens next is kind of sickening. The Hummer speeds down a hillside entirely covered by the tarpaper shanties of poor people. Walls and roofs, doors and windows, dogs and chickens, corrugated iron and curtains, all fly into the air as the Hummer cuts a swath through this settlement, and I'm thinking, people live there. There's a quick mention that drug production takes place on the hillside, but still: Dozens of poor shantytown dwellers must have been killed, not that the movie notices.

I think there's also room for Adam Sandler in this movie.

Posted: Sun Oct 26, 2008 1:28 pm

and therefore Rob Schneider.

They can get killed along with Martin Lawrence. Hell, we could get a swathe of the most annoying actors around (I mentioned Marlon Wayans before) for that scene... Twisted Evil

Mugu on the roof Laughing

I think you have a winner! SURELY after the pasting he got in Team America: World Police Michael Bay should direct, with Bruckheimer producing!

Jacques Clouseau will be shortly replying to a lad.
