picspam: good omens casting session

[kindoftrouble]

Good Omens needs to be made into a movie, although I'm almost scared they'll ruin it and it will be awful and the world would be better off without a movie. The characters are so wonderful in the book that it would take an amazing performance to match the book versions, especially Aziraphale and Crowley. (Though I might finally learn how Aziraphale

There is nothing in this post that isn't made of win. I can't match Billie with my mental!Anathema but I think that's because I have no mental Anathema and Billie would be brilliant at the down-to-earthness. Also with assuming Aziraphale & Crowley are a couple. :D I'd be happy if they cast her.

Hugh Laurie would be so, so good as Aziraphale although for some reason I always picture Aziraphale as being plumper. I'm so amused that we keep labelling people as 'too old' to play 6000-year-old immortal beings. ^_^ I think he might still be able to pull it off, considering Robin Williams was suggested a few years ago and he was just as old then, I think. His awesome would balance; anyone less awesome but cast because they're younger might not work either. Hm.

(I giggled at Dom Monaghan because I was totally not surprised you'd got him in there, but actually he'd be a great Ligur, even if I would spend way too much time giggling when him and John Simm were onscreen. ^_^)

Have no Good Omens icons. Sadness.

I am so pleased you approve! I think we'd have far too much fun squeeing over this cast if this exact movie was made. So much that we might eventually be banned from the movie theatre. Still, there is always a DVD, hopefully with added commentary!

Hugh Laurie would make me so overexcited if he was Aziraphale, but I always imagine Aziraphale thin, but not quite as thin as Crowley. But not plump. I always thought Robin Williams was a weird choice for him though, but I can't explain why. Maybe it's just because he's American and Aziraphale is so the middle-aged man stuck in the 20s. ;) It is odd how we can describe 50-year-old as too old for 6000-year-olds but, they're immortal. Sadly, awesome actors are not.

(I am so predictable. But I had to cast him. It's my perfect movie, dammit! I could also see Nick Frost being Ligur. But I definitely prefer Dom for the role.)

I have no Good Omens icons either. WOE. There needs to be some official artwork.

This is some EPIC casting. I love it.

This entire list is made of the utmost win.
