Villains


Peter Mensah-Moloc the Mystic
black watchmen,alan more,zach snyder




Tony Cox-Big Figure
black watchmen,alan more,zach snyder



DMB1511: Tony Cox as big figure. I mean really, their pictures even show resemblance. I am all about the look (which is why our layouts are greater than the rest, and we don’t steal things) and your ability as an actor to do great, NOT COLOR.








Minutemen


Vivica A Fox-Silhouette
black watchmen,alan more,zach snyder







Jesse Williams-Mothman
black watchmen,alan more,zach snyder





Corey Parker Robinson-Dollar Bill
black watchmen,alan more,zach snyder





Sharif Atkins-Nite Owl
black watchmen,alan more,zach snyder


DMB1511: Sharif Atkins as Nite Owl. He bears a small resemblance to the actor we have for Nite Owl’s protégé. Atkins, I know, can play the relative role too.




Dennis Haysbert-Captain Metropolis
black watchmen,alan more,zach snyder





Halle Berry-Silk Spectre
black watchmen,alan more,zach snyder


DMB1511: Halle Berry as Silk Spectre. We haven’t used her in any of our fancasts before and both figured, why not. I don’t need to tell you how much potential Halle Berry has as an actor. We all know she is great. We all should have the common sense enough to know that catwoman didn’t suck because of berry, but because of horrible writers.




Sean Ringgold-Hooded Justice
black watchmen,alan more,zach snyder


DMB1511: Sean Ringgold as hooded Justice. Look, the guy had like one line in the film and to top it off, he’s huge. So, why not?








Watchmen


Idris Elba-The Comedian
black watchmen,alan more,zach snyder


bigshow2312: My brother and I try not to use Idris in our fancasts, but this was a role, we felt he would own. The character is very complex and eccentric but Idris has demonstrated those aspects of a characters. Oh, and go check out his new music video: Private Garder.




Michael Kenneth Williams-Rorschach
black watchmen,alan more,zach snyder



DMB1511: Michael Kenneth Williams as Rorschach, was another awesome choice made by my brother. Who else has a raspy voice that sounds like he got kicked in the throat as a baby? And the power of acting on his side.

bigshow2312: Rorschach is the unconventional shady character that needed an actor who has demonstrated this. Michael came to mind, after watching The Wire a few episodes, then I studied interviews where he acts the total opposite of brutish. Very good actor indeed.




Boris Kodjoe-Dr. Manhattan
black watchmen,alan more,zach snyder



bigshow2312: For the role of Dr. Manhattan, we needed an actor that had the acting chops, as well as the physique. Boris, really doesn’t need the special body modulations to produce the actual Manhattan. For acting, naturally he’s sort of a stiff but that’s exactly how Billy Crudup portrayed the character.




Nia Long-Silk Spectre II
black watchmen,alan more,zach snyder


bigshow2312: Nia Long, was a difficult decision. We wanted an actress that was well know but also established why she’s popular. She may be a little older than Malin Åkerman but she looks good for her age and looks way better. I would love to see her and Jamie (Foxx) performing together on screen.




Jamie Foxx-Nite Owl II
black watchmen,alan more,zach snyder


DMB1511: Jamie Fox as Nite Owl II, I thought was faultless choice on my behalf. You can see his strengths in all his movies. What movie does the majority of everyone (who has seen it) you know say that you must see? Law Abiding Citizen. In my opinion this is one of his greatest films. Still convinced he can’t act? Go see The Soloist, I guarantee it will change your mind.




Orlando Jones-Ozymandias
black watchmen,alan more,zach snyder



bigshow2312: I recently saw Orlando in a few TV spots of Necessary Roughness, along with Mehcad Brooks (the guy who is dating Serinda Swan). Yes, he’s a comical actor but if you’ve seen his films, he also plays the conceited guy who everybody dislikes (Drumline). That’s exactly how the Watchmen character is: Arrogant.

I'm a huge Watchmen fan and I like almost all of these picks.

Only one I don't like is your Rorschach pick. I know that he was probably one of the hardest ones to pick but I think the actor who played him in the movie is the perfect choice for him. Only problem is that he isn't black.

LORD OF THE RINGS WAS AN ALL WHITE FILM. SURE BLACK PEOPLE PROBABLY GOT JOBS AS ORCS OR SOME SHIT.BUT I DIN'T SEE ANYONE ASKING "why do people keep doing these" THEY JUST KEPT COMING BACK FOR SEQUELS AND PREQUELS. SO IF YOU WOULDN'T MIND DOING THE SAME WE CAN ALL GET ALONG JUST FINE.

GET MY DRIFT?

After our last back and forth i decided that you guys were both ignorant and arrogant and I felt you wanted to be alienated so that your complaints were justified. That being said, this is UNFORTUNATELY an excellent cast with a very unique diagram/set-up. Since I have zero computer skills I love it when I see something like this. Mine fail to look as good as the "norm" on this page and this is better than the "norm". [frick], i wanted to dislike this... ah well there's always next time

ager - 9/18/2011, 6:39 PM
I'd like to make a request that you do what Ninja@ said ^^^^^ and give us an all-black cast of a dozen black characters a time and see how that comes out. I'd like to see your take...

I said it in the voting section and I need to say it here:
BEST FANCAST I HAVE EVER SEEN! you did a great job visually and talent wise. VERY VERY GOOD. IMPRESSIVE is a better word.
MaddMonkk
MaddMonkk - 9/18/2011, 6:52 PM
I went back and looked at the LotR and loved it as much as this. I think Alfre Woodard and Gina Torres need a place in your next cast. BEAUTIFUL and talented women.

To be perfectly fair to Lord Of The Rings it was
supposed to be ancient England,but to the fan cast I
enjoy these because its a what if.
I believe NinjaTurtleFan doesn't get this in his comment.
MaddMonkk
MaddMonkk - 9/18/2011, 7:23 PM
Man o man. controversy everywhere! this is a fun and intelligent and different fancast.I think it's incredible and I'm going to steal a couple picks for my next fancast. I'll give credit where credit is due.(is it okay to use a few of these maybe??)
DDD
DDD - 9/18/2011, 8:08 PM
Wow, this amazing!

Very well done!

IDRIS as THE COMEDIAN is just plain cool!
I voted for him as the best cast.

But I still don't see the point of these.

HARRY BELAFONTE and DESMOND NAKANO did it
best, the black and white switch, in
"WHITE MAN'S BURDON"!

To cut-down LORD OF THE RINGS for having
all white guys is silly. Of course it isn't
all white guys, the bad guys are ARABS.
The culture of LORD OF THE RINGS is a white
culture, there were no black guys there,
there just wasn't! It is inaccurate to
have them as black guys. It's a bit silly!
lol

@JacobCityBros- Your right I haven't seen him act, ill take your word for it.

He's actually pretty great! Just watch the little clips that we have of him

bigshow2312 - 9/19/2011, 6:50 AM
@DDD

Even though we dispute most of the time- I really do appreciate this comment
But, if complaining about an all-white cast is “silly”, then what makes you, for complaining about an all-black?

JacobCityBros are here to stay

@ager

HaHa! I knew you couldn’t resist reading and commenting on our fancast… I kinda already felt you and DDD were watching us the entire time, but at this point, you guys decided to redeem yourselfs

Much love

An all black, Black Panther? No… maybe for our individual fansites but not for a jacobcitybros

bigshow2312 - 9/19/2011, 1:04 PM
@ NinjaTurtleFan

The only ppl “doing these”, are Hollywood filmmakers and JacobCityBros… no one else has ever done this on CBM fan fic
Why would you complain about a fantasy cast? “Loosen up”… “who gives a shit”…. my bro and I have been doing this since the summer, and already have become a staple on CBM.com FAN FIC…. ALREADY…. “what’s done is done”, right? Let me entertain my followers while you commentate on every little step. “Capeesh?”

OH, if you guys are wondering how and why do these, there will be an audio commentary coming out really soon on this

@ellispart3

Thank you bro! I havent forgotten about the gmail

What keeps me confused is, why is the hate directed at a fancast? I mean, doesnt this mean something after a long string of crappy fan cast are posted on this site every day?
