    Default Barret = "T"

    Am I the only one who thinks this?

    Yeah, I agree with you. Barret is Mr.T

    In fact, if you change Barret's name to 'T', there'll be an amusing exchange (SPOILER)when the party's busting out of the Shinra building:

    Aeris: "Why, thank you Mr T!"

    Barret: "Who you callin' 'Mr' T? That don't sound right!"

    Ha ha! that's too funny, BigD! I wonder if the creators of ff7 had Mr.T in mind when they designed Barrett. Now I feel like watching The A team.....

    Someone needs to write an amusing fan fiction about the AVALANCHE-Team. No, not me!

    Cloud builds a makeshift Ultima Weapon using a piece of wire and a foot of duct tape...

    ...While Barret refuses to board Cid's latest invention - an airship, cunningly powered by a salvaged 40 horsepower Jeep motor....

    In The ancient city when Aeris (SPOILER)Dies and the Team are loking for Sephiroth If Barrets on you're team he says "Wheres that damn Sephiroth foo!" Sounds Like a Mr T thing wouldn't you say?

    Barret's dialogue was clearly modelled on the great Mr T.

    Not sure if that's 'official', but it seems fairly evident to me.

    but if an ff7 movie were to made (im not starting anything here, so dont gte ideas) Mr. T would be the worst decision to play barret. even tho they are exaclty alikt. its like they were seperated at birth... sorta like kuja and zidane

    That has to do with the fact that Mr. T is a terrible actor, not his likeness to Barret.

    indeed it does. i think that makes me the master of the obvious.

    Barret would not be a difficult role. Mr. T could easily pull it off - there's not much to it.

    I doubt Mr. T could pull of the emotions Barret has in scenes like (SPOILER)the plate collapse or the meeting with Dyne
