It's very possible that we could actually see this casting happen... ![]()

Someone on SA said Holden should be played by John Goodman, and now I can't picture anyone else.

Mr. Unlucky posted:are you suggesting vin diesal as the judge wtf ![]() I didn't mean it seriously but I was rather surprised at how old Diesel is that I'm certain some exec would try and do that. Professor Shark posted:James Franco went thrpugh a period where he fell in love with Cormac McCarthy and really wanted to direct Blood Meridian. James Franco. TBF, Mark Pellegrino wasn't a bad Judge Holden and Scott Glenn as Toadvine was perfect casting. But yeah, that test footage wasn't that hot.

Hey, Matthew McConaughey wanted to make the movie out of Dan Simmon's Hyperion. Stranger things have happened. It also explains him doing Interstellar. Especially this scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MiEJjx4YCZU "Oh Hey Rachel Weintraub, So's as y'all people get older, you will just keep gettin' younger? awright, awright, awright!"

I know you always have to take liberties with casting, but when it comes to the judge you'd have to nail it. Just google image search the judge to see how badly people have hosed up their envisionment of him. He's meant to be a giant, fat baby-man and people are saying, "Get Vin Diesel because he's bald." Are you messing? Though maybe as a giant, bald, fat man I'm biased.

Are you messing? uhh, you know ppl can change their appearance for a role? vin could put on like, 40 kg's or something. same goes for liam neeson. just put on a fat suit.

Vin is an awful choice for reasons beyond his appearance though. The judge isn't a "badass" character he transcends humanity, you can't just have someone lowly and slowly waxing poetical like Vin as Riddick. But I'm getting too serious about this so I'll stop now. Bryan cranston in one of those inflatable sumo suits.

I've not read No Country, but how well did Bardem do portraying Chigur? I heard Chigur and the judge are both meant to represent God, the same totality of death and driven force. So if he's been translated well then maybe the judge could be too.

Yeah, very true. I'll fully admit I'm just being a super weird rear end in a top hat when it comes to the casting of the judge. I'll echo that Iñárritu is probably the only person I can think of who could even come close to capturing that book, like its been said after seeing the beginning of The Revenant I can't imagine anyone else doing it.

On CofM this guy who does a whole philosophical review of the film: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_0gHgfLHl0 and a nice film class on it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-woNlmVcdjc On The Road: It is a great book, that you could read in a busy weekend, but it will gently caress you up for a few weeks. I never spent so much time thinking about a book after reading it.

This is my child, he said. I wash a dead man's brains out of his hair. That is my job. I read "The Road" as a new father when it was first printed, having no idea what I was doing... I was hosed up for weeks.
