[Byronic Hero]

Great cast. It's nice to see that the best R&C villain will be in this one. Chairman Drek was pretty forgettable when compared to Nefarious and Lawrence.

Apparently Nefarious is in this?

I hated its Qforce appearance so much I can't even describe it with words.

Edit. nvm

 

[DustyVonEric]

So Hype!

Dang, Soony. Why did it take this long to get a R&C movie rolling? This could be BIG!

So so so hype for this, and the casting just makes it better

 

[Teggy]

Quite surprised, I thought this was going to be a low budget kind of thing.

 

[SykoTech]

Wow, that's a much better cast than I thought it'd have. Awesome, R&C certainly deserves it.

Spoiler

Show me the damn game already.

 

[NastyBook]

No Neil Flynn? Lame as fuck.

 

[Frank Serpico]

Wow, A-List cast

 

[Natureboy99]

Ratchet, Clank, and Nefarious are all I needed. The rest are bonus.

 

[Shadow_FFVI]

Now that is a good cast.
Love John Goodman and of course the cast that carries over from the game.

 

[pitcairn55]

So with me and my good lady, our three kids and my eldest grandson all wanting to go, this is going to be an expensive trip to the movies for Pops! Can't wait though.

 

[TheSlySoul]

John Goodman is a pretty good actor overall.

I used to not like Bella Thorne, but she has grown on me outside of her Disney Channel show.

Could this be the best videogame adaptation, yet? Not a high bar, I know.

Yeah, if it is DreamWorks level then it will be the best VG movie yet.

 

[BladeoftheImmortal]

Could this be the best videogame adaptation, yet? Not a high bar, I know.

 

[PirateKing]

Is the remaster going to be different to the movie or are they connected somehow?

 

[Eggbok]

Is the remaster going to be different to the movie or are they connected somehow?

I think they are connected and it's not a remaster it's a full remake.

 

[mejin]

It would be great to see this cast on the game too.

 

[TP-DK]

Wow, when I saw the thread title I expected nothing but names I never heard before.

Paul Giamatti and John Goodman are some great choises.

 

[Sectorseven]

i wonder who stallone will voice....

Hopefully some sort of alien creature so they have an excuse for subtitles.

 

[Illucio]

They have Dimmy Awarded Sylvester Stallone!? This movie is going to be great!

 

[jayu26]

I feel like, if you are a fan you will have a great time. Not so much otherwise.

 

[uncledonnie]

Armin Shimerman as Nefarious; and Jim Ward as Captain Qwark

I'm not familiar with R&C but I find it humorous that it has both Armin Shimerman as a voice actor as well as a character named Qwark.

 

[Icyflamez96]

Theyre probably going to incorporate Nefarious and Qwark's backstory from the UYA vid comics into this.

 

[TheSlySoul]

I feel like, if you are a fan you will have a great time. Not so much otherwise.

Isn't that how it is for most adaptations?
I mean I cannot imagine most people who watched "The Simpsons Movie" did not at least like the show.

 

[Calcium]

I'm looking forward to this, but I can't shake the feeling that this will be really bad. Great cast though, so there is some hope.

 

[Dead Prince]

oh god why are they giving bella thorne jobs still ;x

 

[GoonerTRON]

Fuck yeah!

 

[Afrikan]

Wonder if Giamatti will be Big Al.

let me borrow that for a second.

You would think I'd be all over a movie with Stallone, Goodman, and Thorne but my distaste for Dawson and Ratchet and Clank is more than enough to turn me away.

 

[SerTapTap]

More excited about the original cast than the big names but it's a good cast. Don't fuck this up. Could well be the best video game movie/first legit great one.

 

[The Jackdog]

Who the hell cast stallone in a VOICE ONLY role

 

[lovely ladies]

What company provided the animation for this movie?

 

[immortal-joe]

Stallone and Goodman will fit this world so well; their voices are unmistakable and have so much character. I still want to keep my expectations low, but it just got harder to do that.

 

[Tizoc]

first voice over for Stallone since Antz?

Man I can't believe I didn't recognize his voice in that movie...

 

[Toppot]

What company provided the animation for this movie?

RainMaker with Blockade doing pre-vis I believe

Weird having Drek and Nefarious in the same movie / game

 

[Man-is-Obsolete]

That's a surprising talented group, gives me hope this won't be a throw away movie.

 

[Michael F. Assbender]

Anyone else get a little bummed when they hire mostly live-action actors to do animated voices? It's not that they can't pull it off (though it is a different set of skills), but all too often I'm left picturing the actor I recognize doing the speaking, rather than being absorbed in the character they're portraying.

 

[Bright-Light]

Wonder if Giamatti will be Big Al.

seems like a good fit to me.

 

[Tambini]

hope it turns out good, same for the ps4 game

 

[Dinjooh]

Wonder if Giamatti will be Big Al.

 

[Carl]

I hope this releases in my local cinema. I'll be there day one if it does.

At least it won't be sent to die against EPVII

 

[WrenchNinja]

Didn't they just have prescreenings a while ago?

[TomShoe]

2016? Lame, but don't rush it. I wonder if this means the game will get pushed back as well.

 

[Lucreto]

They did and the movie is completely finished now. All post production work is finished.
