Here's a question for actors and film makers.......:wahoo

ACTORS: What would be your dream character to play?? State your age and gender as well!:thumbsup

FILM MAKERS: What kind of character would you love to make a film about??

I'll Start.... me 35yo male. As an actor: A kick ass sarcastic cop... say Tommy Lee Jones style, or a brilliant terrorist or gangster.

As a Film Maker: A kick ass realistic female action hero.

:thumbsup

As a filmmaker: An Australian hero.
As an actor: See the answer above.


Reasons:
Filmmakers in Australia don't like heros.
Acting: Its all about make believe anyway, so I would prefer to be that than a counter culture anti hero. :)

I thought that was SciFi?

You could re-draw my PC game, change the grass from green to red, call it the planet Xron, change the helicopter gunships to space ships and mate us both in as characters (I can be the good guy and you can be the orange slime ball.

We make millions.

Whats hard about this industry?

ACTORS: What would be your dream character to play?? State your age and gender as well!

Answer: Well I would like to play a few possible roles. I would love to be an extra or actor in an Australian War Movie, something along the lines "The Odd Angry Shot" with Graham Kennedy. A SASR movie based in Vietnam.
My favourite role would have to probably be portraying someone such as Clive "Killer" Caldwell a fighter pilot in WW2 or a historic Australian War Character.

FILM MAKERS: What kind of character would you love to make a film about??

Answer: I'm a sucker for war films, probably a remake of "Gallipoli" about the battle for the Nek, possibly also something immortalising the Battle of Long Tan a major firefight during the Vietnam War where Australians encountered a large contact and fought hard.

As a currently out of work actor, my dream role is any paying role with lines.... But if I were to get choosy, I would love at some point in my career (while I still can) be in a teen slasher film. I don't pretend to be an expert in the genre, but have seen a fair few, and as of yet, none have really managed to scare me as I just find them to corny, so I would find it most interesting to be one of these characters, maybe to reinvent the cliche lead character you always seem to get.

Kill Bill style...

As a film maker a Tarantino style movie would be great, well Tarantino except better of course!!! A gangster sort of movie, Pulp Fiction meets Snatch or something like that, Characters of a Tarantino with the humor of a Guy Richie.

Great question by the way!

Who would you play.... trapped miner or rescuer?

A few days ago one of the trapped miners said (in jest) that he would like his part to be played by Russel Crowe.

I wonder who Russel would like to play?

PS I'm not meaning any disrespect at all. Just looking from a filmmaking perspective.

Well, I would rather play a miner, but then I am not the biggest Russel fan, so if I have to play alongside him...

I think she means you can't use HTML in posts on Filmnet.
Thats right, you can't. Its because people can use scripts to be able to take over.

thats prob what it was. I was quoting someone using the arrows.

In any case, i would very much like to play some of the roles already mentioned- a female 'realistic' action hero (think Lara Croft minus the implants) or an assassin/bounty hunter-ish role (think the female version of Aloyisuis Knight from matthew Reilly's "Scarecrow")

Also would love to play Alice (in wonderland) but a bad ass version :rotfl

Or She-ra if the He-Man and the MOTU film ever actually comes to par. (that'd also be cool to direct)

Also Libby Gant from the "scarecrow" series from Matthew Reilly. She's pretty much the embodiment of all the kick ass girl roles i want to have a crack at.

Directorially, I'd love to have a go at converting l J Smith's "forbidden Game Trilogy" to film, as i could have a field day working with Julian and creatiing the "Shadow World". I'd love to give it the justice it deserves from the description in the books.

I alos would have loved to do "Narnia" but i guess i missed my turn there :cry

In any case, I'm a 21y/o, brunette, female (kinda makes the Alice/She-Ra roles that little more difficult, huh?)

Angie
