They're actually really bad. At least, the Color of Magic one was. Bad special effects, soooo cheesy...

AND RINCEWIND WAS FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT! *flails*

 

I'm sorry, that's a realt sticking point with me. He looked like Ridcully, not our skinny cowardly pal... And Albert was really weird. *grumblemuttergrr*

Oh, and DON'T get me started on the old cover illistrations that make beautiful Teatime look like a witch and Vetinari like a cross-dressing crone...

I didn't think too much of them either, but I liked watching them anyway.

 

The humour doesn't seem to carry over too well to the programs and without it the story seems kinda flat wink.gif

Pratchett himself said that he would choose Alan Rickman to play Vetinari in any Discworld movies made.

 

Alan Rickman=Snape, in case you don't know. I think it fits, don't you?

Lord Vetinari= Love

Alan Rickman= Love

Oh yus.

 

But does Hugh Laurie= Commander Vimes.

I think so.

Alan Rickman is one of my favourite actors happy.gif

 

Has anyone seen him in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves? He stole that movie. Kevin Costner refused to work with him again after that lol.

 

So yes, I can see Alan as Vetinari, although I still think Hugh would need to beef out a bit to play Vimes.

 

Who would be Carrot?

Good question...

The guy who plays Patrick Jane would be a good Moist. Or David Tennant. Brian Blessed is BORN to play Ridcully- can you imagine that?

Um... Drumknott is a hard one.

David Tennant as Moist - Yes

Brian Blessed as Ridcully - Yes

 

Drumknott......

 

Why do I keep thinking of Michael C Hall?

That would be so amazingly epic it's unbelievable.

Y' think?

Sorry, but I can't say I agree. Drumknott is small, blonde... clerky. Stephen Fry (oh, how I love him so...) is too big to play him, I think.

And Rincewind is supposed to be a scrawny little thing. David Jason isn't.

 

Besides, they can do all sort with computer wizardry. They could shrink Steven Fry a little.

Then why not shrink anyone? Arnie? David Beckham? laugh.gif

Rincewind was bad casting...

Oh, him! Yeah, he's cool.

He could play Death without makeup, lol...

 

Anyone know PTerry's e-mail address?

Sounds like a good idea. Wonder if he Twitters?

I'm reading Guards! Guards! in computer lags. Yes, when I surf the net I bring a book.

I loved Guards! Guards when I first read it (in fact I still do). I have the comic book version of it somewhere too.
