I need to get Mal in on this, don't I. From Debi:

I have to say I'm incredibly excited about the IMDB plot, and not just for the hallucinations I'm planning for my character. But what about the characters that won't be participating for reasons of other plot, time, or just not being in the bar? Who would you like to see? Who do you wish was more active so you could see them have the flu? What are you secretly hoping will happen?

For example, I'd give my eye teeth to see the Joker fluctuate between thinking he's Luke Skywalker... and Giacamo Casanova.

What I'd really like is for Helen B. Narbon - who, as far as I'm aware, isn't around - or someone of similar temperament and interests, to be involved. I think it would be really fun to see them geeking out about it in between slipping in and out of other characters.

[muji]

Who is Helen?

[laundry-buddy.livejournal.com]

I would just like to say that yes, you do need to get Mal in on this. I'm pretty sure he has the most common PB in-bar...

[muji]

*facepalms* But I don't know how to play Captain Hammer!

[minkhollow]

Do we even still have a Giselle (from Enchanted)? 'cause her thinking she's Amelia Earhart would be hilarious. And it would confuse Larry, since I have yet to get him through the second movie.
(This is partly inspired by the fact that Larry lodging a complaint in dear_mun drew not one, but TWO Giselles.)

If I couldn't convince Moist to put up with a Big Bang Theory costume, I highly doubt related hallucinations would work out. XD Cosmo's not old enough for it to really be interesting yet; I don't want to subject Angel to it, and also his PB doesn't have a superlarge resume; and I don't know how feasible it would be to subject Conflict Diamond to it.
As for who I am planning to subject to it, I'm pulling Larry back in pretty much expressly for this (I'd planned to keep him out until I got him through the second movie), and I think I can work with Cata's 'knowing her own self kthanks' issues enough for that to be interesting. Jury's still out on Carl.

[innerbrat]

I spelt Giacomo wrong. *headdesks*

I'm sort of rueful that Will's not in bar, so I can't have him thinking he's a Victorian rentboy an elf. Or a crusader.

I refuse currently to have Death think he's Dracula. Or an evil wizard. Or a sith Lord. Or Frankenstein's monster. Or Sherlock Holmes. Or....

[gorgonfondness]

There are two big reasons why Mia's not participating: 1. She's pregnant and the flu's a no-no for the pregnant ladies, even a flu like this since it does have flu symptoms attached. 2. I'm really not sure what else her voice actor's done. With the exception of Alex and Tempest, none of the other characters' voice actors have done another character. I also don't have a solid PB for Mia, so that's out, too.

I wish we did have an Alex from her canon, though. Aside from plotty fun, this flu would lead him to think he's Ferio from Magic Knight Rayearth and Ashley Angel. You know you wanna see that!

[muji]

LOL Feriooooooo.

[aberration]

I guess I feel a little weird suggesting this kind of thing for other people. It seems safe to say that it would have been fun if sleightofhand and I managed to arrange something. I might still manage something, but... I have to talk to her, and ... I don't know, I think it's possible Elle has gotten enough out of me over the last month. Elle's the only character I think I could do this with anyway; I don't want to set out some precedent for Cylons contracting human diseases, I don't know enough about Judy Reyes' other work, and Chi McBride... I actually have seen a lot of his other tv stuff, but I can't really think of anything cracky/doomy to get out of it, so. Emerson's life would be weirder, anyway.

But, yeah, other people. Um. Sylar wondering why he doesn't have pointy ears? Inara as a lizard person? Kate Beckett as a cyberkinetic Mossad agent? *throws stuff out randomly* I don't know what would work for people!

[sdelmonte]

You could do Chi McBride's part from that abysmal show where he was Pres. Lincoln's valet. That would be cracky. But do we really want to remember that show?

[sdelmonte]

Hmmm. Bruce Wayne singing music from Newsies could be unexpected.

And since Debi asked, Mel thinking she's Liz Sherman, and vice versa, could be really confusingly fun. Though I think you need to have one PB not get sick and be the straight man.

I gave Heater a really wacky idea for Dr. Evil that I hope she uses.

I am holding off on bringing Kirk in till a few more of my slowtimes are resolved (which will have to be tomorrow by default). Am not giving away the surprise who he will think he is, but it's not Denny Crane and it's not the parody version of Shatner from Trekkies or SNL.

[innerbrat]

Tell me it's be a bad idea for Mel to think she's Cecile Caldwell and kiss Buffy.

[austen.livejournal.com]

Since I just watched it, I'm tempted to turn Chuck into Hermia from A Midsummer Night's Dream, just for the personal challenge of writing it.

Apart from that, my characters are either otherwise occupied or will be mercifully spared. :D

[piesordeath.livejournal.com]

YES PLEASE. For great fun and confusion.

[rowanberries.livejournal.com]

I would kind of love to see Puck thinking he's Frodo Baggins and going around stealing small shiny valuable things and trying to find a volcano to chuck them into.

Mind you. He'd probably do the stealing part in any case, just for kicks.

[genarti]

Eeeheeheehee.

[naelwyn.livejournal.com]

I won't be participating in the plot. If only because 1) Jasper is not able to get ill so no crazy killer/dressing up as a girl from Criminal Minds for him. Shame, that. 2) Revan does not need to be thinking he is Mau'dib. Seriously. Just, no. And 3) I have not seen nor heard of anything that Scorpius's PB has been in. Fact is, I don't even know who Scorpius's PB is really. Plus, he's just been too quiet lately for me to play.

I do think you need to get Mal in on the plot though. I'd like to see him think he's Castle. Mostly because I just caught up with the latest episodes and almost spit my pop at my TV screen and choked at the Halloween one. So, yes.

Whoelsewhoelsewhoelse. I'll have to think.

[muji]

I am so behind on Castle too. Fail.

[minkhollow]

Also:
I really want to take this elsegame. For great Jarvis thinking he's Chaucer.
Just sayin'.

[lillord1eye.livejournal.com]

Ciel probably won't be participating, since he's going to spend this month going through the Jack the Ripper arc from his canon (and, since that takes place over just two or three days, it's hard to fit in time for crack.)

If it's still running when that gets done with, though, he's totally going to end up thinking that he's a poor girl dressing as a scholarship student boy at a Japanese private school. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haruhi_Fujioka#Haruhi_Fujioka)

[genarti]

*cackles*

[sardonicynic]

Ahaha, god. Kate Warner as Keitha from Flight of the Conchords would be epic, since those two could not be further apart in characterization.

And Ben Wade thinking he's Cal McAffrey from State of Play, or or Maximus, or even Robin Hood would be lulz-inducing.

And Steph, I totally do not enable Mal-as-Caleb. Nope, not one. bit. *g*

[muji]

Lord. So many!

[themidnightson]

Seconding Jasper's 'can't even get ill,' but in the I would if I could category is totally making Edward think he was Salvidor Dali.

[a1enzo]

My boy cannot get ill either, in the normal way of things, and he certainly cannot catch human diseases unless he turns human for some reason. ...which raises the question of whether his Guardian immunity would carry over when he's human. Huh.

[agoodshinkickin.livejournal.com]

So many Robot Chicken personas to choose from.
So little time.

[sdelmonte]

Can I request a Mike tomorrow or Friday? I have an idea for my flu'ed Kirk that will work better with a (slightly) reliable bartender.

[piesordeath.livejournal.com]

Ohhh, the possibilities.

Actually, Albus thinking he's Percy Jackson would be amusing.

[wakeupnew]

Plourr as special crimes detective would make me very happy. I don't have a whole lot of options, because many of my character PBs either haven't been in much or I haven't seen many of their other projects. Mariska Hargitay and Selma Blair are both potential targets, though!

Riley could think he's that guy from Gigli, but ... dear God. Gigli. I've only seen William Christopher and Alan Alda in MASH, Terrence Howard in Iron Man and Crash, and Jeannette McCurdy in iCarly. I've never seen Jennifer Jason Leigh in anything, and Jessica Hamby's PB just in a bit role on The Mentalist which wouldn't be cracky at all. Maya has no PB, so that leaves me with Plourr-as-Olivia-Benson (despite not actually looking like Mariska Hargitay) or Liz-as-...several options.

First and foremost is Vivian from Legally Blonde for the sheer hilarity of the preppy clothing. I'm not considering Kath and Kim or Dirty Shame, because I decided I wasn't going to be that cruel, but I might try to track down Cruel Intentions or her episode of Xena Warrior Princess. Okay, I am definitely tracking down her episode of Xena Warrior Princess. *_*

ETA: ... So Mariska Hargitay was on an episode of Baywatch in the eighties. *__________________* THE POSSIBILITIES.

[tools-adrift.livejournal.com]

Jennifer Jason Leigh! So many fucked up prostitutes and junkies to choose from!

Actually a really good part would be hers in Existenz (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120907/)...crazy ass video game designer who may or may not be in on a huge conspiracy? Awesome.

[im-so-sari.livejournal.com]

I'm finding myself wishing I had time to review all the cartoons Tara Strong has done a voice for. There are a lot of them.

[says-the-booyah.livejournal.com]

Do Batgirl!

[ceitfianna]

I love the idea of this and I just haven't figured out who's going to do what yet. Though I really want to see Ben Wade as Maximus now or he could be Jack Aubrey for sexy navytimes.

In terms of mine, I think Jane would be the easiest since her actress has done a lot of stuff though I haven't figured out who yet. Ella Enchanted might be fun or the girl from the Devil Wears Prada. Normally I'd do this to Will but he's kind of depressed in my head though I think it might be lovely to have him be MacBeth. Think of the accent and then he'd just be a bit more manic.

Though another fun option is having Demeter think she's Queen Elizabeth.
The Pirate King is the other one I'm seriously considering because Kevin Kline is brilliant, my thought was Dave since every one would be confused as he was suddenly nice.

[sdelmonte]

Don't forget Kline's Shakespeare resume. Saw him as Hamlet on TV years ago, and as Falstaff about five years ago.

But for really over the top roles, don't forget Fish Called Wanda and I Love You to Death.

[doihearawaltz.livejournal.com]

WELL THEN.

I'm still not 100% on participating (coursework argh) buuuuut.

Jason Bateman (Michael Bluth) was Teen Wolf. I don't know how much further I want to get into that. He was also, to be fair, a cross-dressing psycho of a lawyer in Smokin' Aces. On the teen star note, Vincent Kartheiser (Pete Campbell) was in a hell of a lot. Including Angel, as Angel's bratty son. I've seen several things he's done and they are all the anti-Campbell except occasionally in terms of obnoxiousness (see: Another Day in Paradise as a druggie thief/con artist).

Mathieu Amalric (Antoine and Dominic Greene) hasn't really been in anything so interesting that I would use this plot to wreak some havoc. Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Eddie Blake), on the other hand ... IDK, we'll see. Robert Downey Jr. (Paul Avery) has been in some fairly interesting stuff, but I don't know that I'd subject him to plot. Same goes for Christoph Waltz (Hans Landa) and Damian Lewis (Dick Winters).

[sardonicynic]

Aahaha, oh god, the Bateman. I will totally cop to seeing Smokin' Aces just for him, bwah, and it was glorious in its ridiculousness. Also, Ben Affleck's two minutes onscreen, HEE.

Ahem.

He was also a slimy, coked-up PR guy in State of Play.

I am not enabling you, Rodge-podge. Nope. Not one whit.

[mmexlibris]

Is is wrong that I want to see Ben Wade running around in rough linen, or gladiator armour? If it is, I don't want to be right.

(Of course, Raguel could think he's Ben Wade. That'd be weird.)

[sardonicynic]

(Of course, Raguel could think he's Ben Wade. That'd be weird.)

*SQUEAKS AND DISSOLVES*

I AM SO BEHIND THIS I THINK I'M IN FRONT.

[yakalskovich]

For the Anita Blake lot, it would be fun if Jason thought he was Hephaistion, and Asher thought he was Achilles (especially as that version of Achilles was de-slashed in a terrible way, while Hephaistion and Alexander, when they were young, shipped Achilles/Patroclus like whoah) -- but I guess that vamps and weres don't get flu at all, and there's enough plot for the AB lot as it is...

[nocarename]

I really need to take a look at the voice actors that did the work for Yuuno and Ako.

Really, really.

And maybe something for Jerry from Eric Flint's other books.

[spandexed-edie.livejournal.com]

Dude...my head hurts even contemplating this.

Edie would end up either a outrageous vampire chick, or a flail-y ex-porn star that's into a Baldwin. Srsly, Baldwins should not be allowed sex scenes. Ew.

Ivy would probably wind up being a badass O-Ren Ishii, because, well, damn.

Coreen would be...hahahahahaha, Twink from the L Word. As that would make her feel so awkward.

Beetle...would be some random guy. I dunno, I'm not familiar with any of his PB's work.

Penny would be Codex. Hands down. I have her "Do you want to date my avatar" icon somewhere.

Cleo refuses to even think about this.

[puckishly.livejournal.com]

I just want everyone to know that tomorrow, Ava will have an IMDb EP. And it will be epic.

But yeah, I've played fairies as not so much getting ill-- it has to be basically a curse before they feel the effects-- but I would really love for Puck to think he was a tap-dancing penguin.

As chat remarked: Simon Tam would feel so vindicated.

[shati.livejournal.com]

Are you doing Ginger Snaps??
