Sandor 918 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 I was recently reminded by the fact that actor Tobin Bell (yes, the guy from the Saw films) looks a lot like John Williams. He talks a bit like him too.Now tell me: is this NOT the PERFECT guy to play John Williams if they'd ever make a biopic...?
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,386 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 I can see it!Still dunno why we would need a biopic though.
Quintus 6,495 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Never would have suggested him myself but now that you say it I can see what you mean.
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,386 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 They would have to ugly him up quite a bit.
Brónach 1,330 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 JW is one of these people who is awesome but hardly material for a typical biopic, at least on first sight (who knows...)Unless it is NOT a typical biopic. Like for example a film that happens to contain John Williams as a character but it's not necesarily a biopic concept.

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,386 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Well, lets not use it.
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,386 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 That's on my YouTube channel.
Quintus 6,495 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 I know!Not him, the Saw guy.JW is one of these people who is awesome but hardly material for a typical biopic, at least on first sight (who knows...)Unless it is NOT a typical biopic. Like for example a film that happens to contain John Williams as a character but it's not necesarily a biopic concept.He could play Arnie's mentor in Predator 3, who ends up getting dragged along for one last tour of Cambodia.
A24 5,156 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 But we all know it's this actor who is going to get the part, don't we ...
JoeinAR 1,957 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 sorry but the guy from Saw is completely wrong,
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,386 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 True.We will have to fatten up Jigsaw a bit. Joe's Southern diet!
JoeinAR 1,957 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Not looks wise.I disagree, they only have a passing resemblance.and the idea of a John williams biopic is just an awful idea.
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,386 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 I agree. I love his music. But I think it would be as boring as watching paint dry.
JoeinAR 1,957 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 I agree. I love his music. But I think it would be as boring as watching a Wes Anderson film.you nailed it sir.
Xander Harris 9,674 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 It won't be a John Williams biopic, it'll be either Spielberg or Lucas.
Jay 46,242 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Here's the thing. You can't cast an old actor to play John Williams unless the entire movie takes place when he's already old. If you want to cover his entire life (including the most dramatic events such as the death of his first wive), you need to have a young actor. Then he will have to wear old-person make-up if the film goes into the later years of his life, or have 2 actors play him wanner251 1
Sandor 918 Posted January 21, 2013 Author Posted January 21, 2013 Uhm, this was actually more about how much Tobin Bell resembles Johnny (yes Joey - he does) than it ever was about seriously considering an actual biopic...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,386 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 You've directed right?Why not try and get a biopic of the ground.The JWFan Story!Javier Bardem as Ricard L. BefanMichael Fasbender as HitchJohnny de Mol as Roald (this will only cover the early years of JWFan)Sarah Michelle Gellar as Ren (Pleeeaaassseee!!!)Robert Downey Jr. as Neil S. BulkJohn Favreau as JoeinarI'll play myselfI'll play myself
Sandor 918 Posted January 21, 2013 Author Posted January 21, 2013 Cool..!That's going to be some serious R-rated shit..! Especially the scene I'd like to call 'sharing masturbation technique experiences'. Fr-ea-ky..!
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,386 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Now that would be perfect!Imagine the opening Ro...eeeeh Sandor.Ricard starting a small and modest website dedicated to the miusic if TPM....Especially the scene I'd like to call 'sharing masturbation technique experiences'. Fr-ea-ky..! That would be for the sequel.Evangeline Lilly can be cast as Alice.We will need a particular pug faced and boorish actor to play Lee.....
KK 3,313 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 And thus, the Doom of all film music fandom was decreed.
Neimoidian 15 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 JW is one of these people who is awesome but hardly material for a typical biopic, at least on first sight (who knows...)Unless it is NOT a typical biopic. Like for example a film that happens to contain John Williams as a character but it's not necesarily a biopic concept.What? JW not biopic material??? http://www.jwfan.com/forums/index.php?app=core&module=attach§ion=attach&attach_rel_module=post&attach_id=515That Daniel Day-Lewis' make up is stunning.
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,386 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Hmmm....I really dont see Daniel Day as JWfan material.
Thor 9,362 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 I don't see the similarity myself.My bet is still on Sir Richard Attenborough first and David Ogden Stiers second.
A24 5,156 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 My bet is still on Sir Richard Attenborough first It's a film about his entire life, not about his last days.
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,386 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Who would play you Alex?
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,386 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Who could play you?
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,386 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 You would have to reveal yourself
