I just want to see a movie where everyone Nicholas Cage meets is just Nicholas Cage again from all his different characters in previous works. It would be a frantic movie where his goal is to find someone who isn’t himself. While the plot was very different, Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent had a lot of this energy in it.

[–] ValiantDust@feddit.org 11 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

This is gold. The person he finds eventually is Danny Pudi as Abed Nadir from Community doing his Nicholas Cage impression.

I'm a cat. I'm a sexy cat.

Danny DeVito as Frank Reynolds vs. Danny DeVito as the Penguin

[–] hansolo@lemm.ee 2 points 3 weeks ago

No contest, Frank Reynolds would smoke the Penguin and offer him a cooked penguin egg in these trying times.

Jean-Luc Picard vs Professor X just playing chess. Alternating 2d and 3d of course.

[–] slazer2au@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Remake that Pixar(?) short from the 90s with the old man playing chess with himself.

[–] Davel23@fedia.io 3 points 3 weeks ago

Geri's Game.

Arnold as Terminator from The Terminator versus Arnold as The Terminator from Terminator II

There is a Arnold vs Arnold, sort of.

In the beginning of T5: Genisys; A T-800 "Pops" arrived much earlier than any other terminators, and fought the T1 movie's T-800 (movie overall isn't great tho)

Archer and Bob Belcher, which they already played around with on Archer.

It would also be fun to see Kronk as Joe Swanson’s caregiver.

John DiMaggio as Marcus Fenix vs. John DiMaggio as Bender vs. John DiMaggio as Schnitzel

[–] Zagorath@aussie.zone 6 points 3 weeks ago

If we're talking voice actors, IMO the ultimate self-teamup already exists.

[–] cattywampas@lemm.ee 5 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

vs. John DiMaggio as Jake the Dog

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I didn’t know until now that Bender and Jake were voiced by the same person. How did I not hear that? I feel so oblivious.

Also, Jake would win.

[–] cattywampas@lemm.ee 2 points 3 weeks ago

Jake is kinda OP

[–] MyDarkestTimeline01@ani.social 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I was using my three favorites but yes. Jake as well.

[–] Apeman42@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Wakka, Kimahri, and Steve Ballmer too. Damn, he's done a lot of characters I liked.

[–] Case@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 2 weeks ago

Don't forget his vampire character from Bloodlines.

He's mostly in the tutorial though he does show up later.

Edit: okay, I did not read that title correctly. But I just leave the comment here.

Snow White but everyone is cool.

Snow White - Terry Crews or Mike Tyson

Evil queen - Dwayne (the rock) Johnson

The dwarves - seven comedians, don’t care if male or female, maybe one is Jack Black

The knight - peter Dinklage

The mirror - voice and attitude of Squidward or SpongeBob

Just make that thing funny. Mirror mirror on the wall - who’s the buffiest of them all.

Just pick any two Jason Lee characters and let them go at it.

[–] MummifiedClient5000@feddit.dk 2 points 3 weeks ago

Before the accident, Earl Hickey ruined the career of an actor named Jason Lee. Now karma wants Earl to pay Jason Lee back.

I made this post mostly so I could say how I want to see Christopher Lambert as Connor MacLeod vs Christopher Lambert as Raiden.

[–] Zagorath@aussie.zone 2 points 3 weeks ago

An episode of Star Trek: The Original Series that takes inspiration from the TNG episode Measure of a Man, with Denny Crane somehow involved on one side of the case. Idk if it would be better to have him working with or against Captain Kirk.

[–] pastermil@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

How about Inspector Gordon vs Stansfield?

One is the most heroic cop in the universe, the other is the most psychopathic one. Both played by Garry Oldman.

Edit: Also all the characters of Joaquin Phoenix in battle royale. Was thinking of at least The Caesar, The Joker, and Beau.

[–] klu9@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

That. Sounds. AWESOME!


And for sh*ts and giggles, have another version where 'Oldman as Gordon' is allied with 'Reno as Léon', but 'Oldman as Stansfield' is allied with 'Reno as Godefroy' from Les Visiteurs.

[–] pastermil@sh.itjust.works 0 points 3 weeks ago

I think what would happen is that Stansfield and Leon would go all in to settle their beef while the other two stand on the sideline being confused.

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 0 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

In the Dark Tower movie, Idris Elba was hopelessly miscast as Roland.

But he would have kicked 12 kinds of ass if they did a faithful adaptation and cast him as Cort.

[–] faercol@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 weeks ago

Okay yes I see it now, that would have been so much better

[–] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 0 points 3 weeks ago

I dunno if this counts, but I am excited for the Coronation Street/Emmerdale collaboration. Even though I hate both.
