Seriously, it might be a better desk job. Oh, I'll hope the game developers and Forgotten Rhelms People choose me as avatar. But Really Luz, you would make a fine, Imoen:}

First of all, say your prayers Uwe Boll doesn't get his hands on this one.:laugh: Second, definetly Vin Diesel for Minsc. Or maybe The Rock. Or the guy who played the mummy. Any bald dude will do.

You do realise that makes Patrick Stewart qualify don't you?

I am lmao at the image of Captain Picard chasing after some evil Klingon yelling in Shakespearean influenced English...
"Go for the eyes Boo! Go for the eyes!"

Or...
"Butt kicking for Goodness!"

Vin Diesel should be Sarevok, he's got that deep, brooding voice.

I didn't mention this but Patrick Stewart is kinda like my childhood hero.:laugh: It was a long time ago that the national television used to broadcast Star Trek and that was THE Sunday (or whatever day they showed it) family entertainment. Even the anti-sf, parents generation used to watch it.

Ooohh, Arnold Vosloo DOES fit Minsc! AND he has an accent that could be used!

Umm, just one question. Who own the rights to the Baldur's Gate series?

I recall that Bioware is one of the developers of the game.

Has anyone mentioned Uma Thurman or Michael Madsen yet? Madsen would do great as a character with some sort of "dark side", like Valygar. And as for Uma, well, she's just plain cool

I bet she would make a great Imoen.

Oh great, I can definitely picture that one!

semi-Shakespearean Minsc, that's hilarious...:laugh:

Which reminds me: YouTube - Extras - Patrick Stewart Comedy

And on topic: no, no; no Vin Diesel. Definitely not as Minsc. Minsc should be played by an actor, not by a stuntman.

Don't laugh, at least, not too loud, until you've read Shakespeare's comic style for so-called "low clowns." Aside from the really stupid Three Stooges-style physical humor, Minsc would fit right in. Probably better in Ben Jonson's plays, though.

You know, seeing this reminds me of something I came across a long time ago. A man was writing a screenplay in hopes of submitting it. Of course, that was several years ago and his website is either temporarily or permanently down.

I thought the premise was quite dumb when I read it. At anygiven moment he would have eight of the NPCs in a party with the protagonist, and it sounded really hack-n-slash to me.

So if you guys want to see a movie, go ahead and write a draft. Might happen.

Sorry, I don't know that many actors by name, but I just had to add that whenever I see that picture of Minsc, I think of James Mason (without any hair, of course).

Take a look at the attached picture and see if you agree.

Alright, this may as well get a bumping...

I'm gonna suggest Rose McGowan for Viconia, and Robert Stack for Keldorn.
