This is awesome, I'll come up with some right away.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...cole-freya.jpg
Nicole Kidman as the voice of Freya..Her Australian/British accent would be ideal for Freya.
Orko from He-Man should play Vivi.
Robert Z'dar is a definete Steiner.
http://pages.zdnet.com/gmlumpp/siteb...arheadshot.jpg
http://nivasgigs.net/newimages/flash...rtzdarniva.jpg
It's the part he was born to play!
http://www.getlippy.com/graphics/lip...snicketweb.jpg
Jim Carey as Garland.
http://img.coxnewsweb.com/B/07/74/96/image_196747.jpg
Jack Black as Zidane.
Johnney Depp would probably play Kuja. Depp in a thong...*shudders*
Haley Joel Osment would be Vivi, and that little girl from War of the Worlds would probably be Eiko.
Yeah, Haley was one of my choices, too. And the girl from WotW isDakota Fanning.
Jack Black?! No....just no. More like Jesse McCartney.Quote:

Jesse McCartney!? That little pansy!
http://www.cnn.com/interactive/world.../04.zidane.jpg
He should be Zidane shouldn't he?
Actors, noooooooooooooooooo! I wouldn't want them to make a movie with actors. All final fantasy movies should be computer generated.
Yeah, maybe not Jesse, but I would want a teen actor, since Zidane is 16.
Roseanne Barr could play the lifa tree.
Levian: omigosh! roseanne bar is awesome.. and she a lot thinner now... no Iifa tree for her...
Anaisa: the most likeley won't, but this is just a fun game!
Anyone who suggested voices: we're talking abiout live action, not a voice over thing like anaisa wants... sorry!
You see, going off topic I think Jim Carey would be a FANTASTIC Kefka!
alrighty, but plz stay on topic!
Jim Carey is fantastic, period!
http://www.associatedentertainment.c...-O_Donnell.jpghttp://purplepuff0.tripod.com/queenbrahne.jpg
Perfect.
I'd like Alan Rickman to play Garland. But then I want Alan Rickman in ever movie ever made.
Lol! But I can't see the pic next to Rosie. Is it Queen Brahne?
That's a perfect Brahne.
Hell, we could even use her as Quina if the budget gets too low
As the idiots say, lol.
I wanna see the tripod image.. what is it!!!
Just a picture of Brahne
oh.. thats... funny, but not really...
I can actually see Jim Carey as Garland in that pic. xD And if Jack Black was thinner, he could be Zidane. I have a feeling Garnet would be hard to cast, though.
Del Murder can play Quina.
it would be cool if arnold schwazangger (i dont know how to spell it) was stiener
I would use no one as FF9 is really rubbish:mad:
and you just pissed off alot of FF9 fanboys, me included. So why dont you make like Kurt Cobain and get out of here!!
To stay on topic...
I think Tom Cruise should be Kuja. We all saw him in Risky Business, so I'm sure a thong wouldnt be to hard for him.
Jack Black as Zidane?? NO! It has to be a teen.
Ruby should be played by britany spears :p lol kidding
i like the idea of jack black as zidane but he is too old 4 the part...
but who whould play dagger? and johnny depp as kuja would be heaps funny!!:D
Just as long as Necron gets cut completely I'd be happy :D
I would play every character.
Cause you are big and bad arent you??
I agree. Let's not do that. I don't think he'd fit the part very well.Quote:

ROFL!! Did you get that from flyingomelette.com? Love that site.
Anyway, whoever does the voice of Toad on SMB2 Advance should do Quina's voice.
Mr T has to be in it at some point.
Eiko?Quote:

So it would look a little something like this...
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v339/minomon/ff9.gif
thats pretty funny
Swarzeneger like Steiner?? lol They are similar... xDD
lollerskates...
da arnold as steiner...taht would rule...
hasta la vista, zidane....
and when he killed something he'd say.. you have a termedated...
i think amarant should be played by keanu reeves...and haley joel osment should be vivi...
or keanu reeves could be every character...:p
arinie!! i never thought of that!! :D
Arnold: Princess! What are you doing?!
It would just be like Jingle all the Way, except he would replace every "Jamie" with "Princess".
lol, some of these are good. Robert Z'dar looks a helluva lot like steiner. But, the FF movies should be computer generated. No one could play Zidane or Dagger... no, not even jack black.
Necron was awesome! Completely unexpected, along with one of the most original FF boss themes I've ever heard!
Swarzeneger as steiner...that would be funny..
actually during my playthrough of the game, when i read steiner's lines, I thought of arnold's voice. its quite humorous.
Zidane: Jay of Jay and Silent Bob
Baku: John Goodman
Vivi: Shia LaBeouf (Just seems to fit for some reason)
Kuja: The Rock (After seeing Be cool, for some reason I'd like to see this)
Eiko will be written out of the script.
Orlando Bloom could play Zidane http://us.movies1.yimg.com/movies.ya...oom/towers.jpg
and keira Knightley could play Daggerhttp://members.aol.com/celephoto/_k_.../mainpic01.jpg
yeah cause Keira Knightley is very hot
This just came to me,
Garnet played by Michelle Branch, and I have no Idea why.
Beatrix should be played by, um, another one simply because i can, Rupaul.
Better yet, Kuja as Rupaul.
i think ville valo should be kuja...cuz that'd be cool...or brandon lee is he was alive...RIP brandon lee
and zidane should be a big grilled cheese sandwich...or keanu reeves...
that'd be good, slight problem: NEITHER CAN ACT! (except bloomy in LOTR)Quote:

I'd think he'd make a better Quina. Cos the Regent's voice always sounds poshish to me, with an odd ribbit or gwok thrown in.
And Jack Black would make an awesome Zidane if he was young...er. However, I'll have to play it, alongside an incredibly hot Dagger...yummy...
I would produly make a goood Vivi.
Zidane: It would be better as a show series, and then we could add on to the series our fan fictions, we have several, we includes 7 sequels in chronological order, one short prequel, and an in-betweenquel of what REALLY transpired that got Zidane back home to the Mist Continent to reunite with Garnet. Yes, Garnie and I are indeed FFIX nutcases. *Randy Orton pose*
i think FF stuff should be computer generated or anime. i can sort of imagine the guy who plays sirius black in harry potter(i think his names gary oldman.) being garland.andy serkis should doall of the Qus and the oglop and frog form of regent cid.
chaos: It's really not needed. That's what I hate about FFVII's Advent Children. Now "make a movie of this!!!" threads are popping up all over the place. I want this game left as it is at least, so I can look back and say "what a great game" instead of have to start to detest it because the story's been milked for all it's worth.
Rubedo: Think about it for a second though, why would you need a movie? FFIX's ending in itself was a movie, greatly capturing the end of the story for all of the characters. Especially Vivi's tragic story. It was great, and IMO, that's how I want it left. It's a horrible day when you can't enjoy an original game because the story has been dragged on to ridiculous lengths (FFVII). That game when first played was great in my eyes. But after being overrated, and having so many spoofs, I can't honestly say I'm that big a fan.
Trowa: *sits and stares and sits and stares*
EDIT: chaos: Jeez, I completely misunderstood this thread. I just posted after reading the title.
Rubedo: Well, let's see.... I'd make Orlando Bloom Zidane. :)
no orlando bloom cant be zidane...
kiera knightly is ridiculously hot so she would make a good garnet ( props to whoever came up with that one)
Sylvester Stalone should play Quina because it would be cool, dont question my logic, it would own.
So, what do we got:
Freya: Nicole Kidman / Cate Blanchett^^^
Steiner: Robert Z'dar (amazingly alike) / Arnold Schwarzenegger / John Rhys-Davis (Gimli from LOTR) / Stephen Fry
Garland: Jim Carrey (:confused: still kinda odd choice) / Sean Connery:cool: / Alan Rickman / Christopher Lee ^_^
Zidane: Jack Black / Jesse McCartney / Johnny Depp / Elijah Wood / Leonardo Di Caprio / Orlando Bloom / Macaulay Culkin
Kuja: Johnny Depp / Tom Cruise / Ville Valo (offcourse Ville Valo:D )
Eiko: Dakota Fanning
Amarant: Johnny Depp / Hugh Jackman / Keanu Reeves / Liam Neeson
Cid (human): Sean Connery^^/Liam Neeson
Cid (animal): Frank Oz
Brahne: Roseanne Barr
Ruby: Britney Spears / Lindsay Lohan
Baku: John Rhys-Davis / John Goodmann
Garnet: Keira Knightley / Michelle Branch / Nathalie Portman
Quina: Frank Oz / Andy Serkis
Beatrix: Michelle Pfeifer^_^
Cinna: Ryan Dunn
Marcus: Bam Margera
Blank: Johnny Knoxville:D
Maybe we could pull a "nutty proffesor" and have johnny depp play all the parts?
Lani: Carmen Electra
Sir Fratley: Viggo Mortensen
Minister Artania: Liam Neeson
Zorn and Thorn: Jim Carrey / Andy Serkis
I love you.Quote:

If Ville Valo could act he would make a perfect Zidane, because somehow, he looks just like him, but without blonde hair.
what accents would you give the characters?
british? american?
I would give everyone from Lindblum London accents, because Lindblum sounds like London and it sorta reminds me off it.
And everyone from Alexandria would have American accents because of the whole world domination thing.
I would give Burmecia Northen Europian accents, like Swedish ones or something.
Those dwarf people could have scottish accents.
And Dali could have Welsh accents and Treno could have really dodgy Mexican accents.
Treno would be all posh English.
but whhaaat aobut the bums.Quote:

Yeah, nobles are posh. Bums are cockneys. Makes sense. Just don't make Dick Van Dyke one of the bums :barf:
Voices? I'ld just look at Dragonball:
- Amarant: Piccolo
- Zidane: Goku
- Eiko: young Bulma
- Baku: Ox King
- Kuja: Vegeta
- Blank: Yamcha
- Marcus: Tien
- Vivi: young Gohan
- Quina: Mr. Popo
- Garnet: Chichi
- Brahne: King Cold
- Steiner: Taopaipai
- Cinna: Yaijirobe?
- ........
:D Something like that.

Please... no more sh*tty Square-Enix movies...
Two were enough... IMO both of them were very bad. Spirits Within had literally nothing to do with FF, and Advent Children did nothing to add to the excellent original storyline of FF 7, it was just a poor excuse to ressurect Sephiroth, wrapped in ripped-off action movie stereotypes.
So I don't want any actors because I only want a movie that actually is enjoyable, and it is already obvious that Square isn't capable of that. They can make good games, but not good movies.

I think that I should play all the characters.
no, not a scouser,Quote:

My sister says J.Lo for Freya, and the person that plays Shaggy on Scooby Doo for Zidane... and Guy Sabastian for Steiner (eww) Or maybe Owen Wilson for Zidane...
I dont really agree with her there, but they are interesting ideas.....
She also says Tom Welling (superman from smalltown)(is that it?) as Queen Brahne.... I think Guy Sabastian as Queen Brahne :p
Eiko: Emma Watson (hermione from harry potter)
Vivi: my sister!!! That would be sooo cool.... :kaoplain:
Zidane: ..... dont know. He'd be hard to cast
I think Zidane and Garnet should be teenagers (or at least look young)
Zidane: Okay, I say Brahne should be Chris Farley, they're both fat and they're both dead, imagine it, "OHHHHHHHHHH MYYYYYYYY GOOOOOOOOOOD, I'M THE FREAKIN' QUEEN OF ALEXANDRIA. I'm gonna steal summon stuff from my daughter AND BLOW FREAKIN' RATS UP!"
Ow my lungs...:D:laugh:
Zidane: Or we use the guy who plays Eric Cartmen's voice from South Park, imagine, everything uses a sloten eidolon, she'd call the same line. "RESPECT MY AUTHORITY!" I call this would be funny use the voice of Antonio Bendaras for Zidane every now and then, I don't see how it would work but I mean imagine the cargo ship ladder, imagine Antonio saying, "Ooo, soft..."
That'd make me laugh.
well Zidane n Garnet = 16. Vivi = 9. Eiko = 6.Quote:

I just wouldn't make a film. You almost never get good teenage actors/rices, and I'll suck my own face off if you find a decent kid actor (exception to Matilda girl and that wee lass from Narnia, they were years ahead of how sh....ugar they shoulda been)
I forgot who sung 'melodies of life' but whomever it was should do the voice of Garnet.
Vivi: In game -9-; actor -13-Quote:

If Square-Enix ever made a Final Fantasy IX movie (and this goes for all the other FFs, too) it should definitly not be live action. It should be in CG.
Actually, Kelly Preston should play Beatrix!
And some guy should play Steiner...hmm...yeah arnold's good, but I imagined Beatrix as arnold...damn.
Well no one will look EXACTLY like the characters, but I think Camilla Belle Should play Garnet, and Noah Taylor should grow long hair and play Zidane...maybe...I dunno.
Except the age, Orlando Boom might make a goos Zidane. Many people will watch it then. Even my sister(who hates all games.)
But...but but....but...Orlando Bloom's a crap actor...(except in LotR)
Jojo should play Dagger.
I don't know about the rest, but I think Ayumi Hamasaki should be given a shot at playing General Beatrix, if a real life movie was made. She has the face and the figure. It will be a tribute to Japan where Square is based, and to all the beautiful women there.
However, a computer generated movie is always preferred. The imagination can be stretched more, voice actors that do not look like in any way the characters can be used, the magic special effects can be rendered more effectively (imagine how the sequence of Garnet summoning a monster eidolon like Bahamut or Ark would look like using today's rendering) and perhaps adjusting the body proportions to resemble a bit more realistic dimensions while still retaining some cuteness.
But one major challenge would remain, and that is ensuring a story, which is already entertained as a console game, will better perform as a story for the movie theatre. To the point that audiences who previously support other FF series over FF9 will be forced to take a new look at this largely ignored game which had great effort put into making it.
But as some here said, given the mediocre track record of Advent Children and others, I would hate to see FF9 get disliked even more because of a botched movie production, given that now movie studios are being run by accountants instead of true movie makers.
