Evil Matt

So I've got this idea for a movie starring William Shatner, Burt Reynolds, Lee Majors, Charlton Heston, and Mr. T as an aging team of superheroes who have to band together for one last adventure to save the world from the machinations of some evil genius.


There's my generic story pitch.  Anybody besides me think this is a good idea?


Oh, and since you guys are as close to experts on genre films as you can find, I have a question.  Who do you get to play the villain with a cast like that?

Everything's funnier with monkeys.

Brother Ragnarok

Jeremy Irons, that's who plays the villain.  MwooAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Brother R

There are only two important things in life - monsters and hot chicks.
    - Rob Zombie
Rape is just cause for murdering.
    - Strapping Young Lad

Evil Matt

Not bad, but maybe not badass enough.  I really wish Vincent Price was still alive.

Is Ricardo Montalban dead?  He's a fun villain.

Everything's funnier with monkeys.

Any movie with Shatner and Reynolds would be classic.

As for the bad guy.........................................Christopher Walken?  I would love to see him as a megalomanic evil doer.  

Wait...it's been done.

Nevermind.

A bald man named Savalas visited me last night in a dream.  I think it was a Telly vision.

Great idea, only problem is you can't get Heston anymore.  How about Clint Eastwood.

When I first learned that John Lithgow was the bad guy in "Cliffhanger," I thought "what a rip."  Actually, after seeing it, I thought he made a pretty good bad guy (the best part of the movie, actually...).  If he's not your main antagonist, at least maybe he could be a sidekick.  He's got that snotty way about him when he wants to show it.

That is a great idea.  Your replacement for Heston (since he's unavailable now) is Doug McClure.  

Your villain is the guy who played Grandpa on the Munsters.  Crispin Glover is the henchman.

Jamie Lee Curtis is the love interest who winds up with Reynolds.

I read something last year about  William Shatner making a movie with Harry  Hamlin, where Shatner is a psychotic  screen writer who takes a film crew hostage and makes them film his screen play.

Anybody know anything about this? Shatner does psychotic very well .




And you thought Trek isn't cool.
