Gears of War movie poster.
awkwardmongoose | 4:06 PM on 10.27.2008 16 comments


Okay, so this isn't actually the real poster, it's a mock-up that was posted at Ripten.com.



From Ripten.com....

"So yeah, I was bored and the lack of news coming over the wire convinced me to pop open Adobe Photoshop and mess around for a while. One thing lead to another, and a few hours later I ended up with my own little Gears of War Movie poster. Dan Landis added his two cents on the casting over Skype.

"Yes, we know that Kilmer is currently a bit on the heavy side, and Batista may not be the best actor on the face of the planet, but we figured what the fuck — they sure as hell look the part. Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Lester “Terry Tate” Speight were obvious choices. To be perfectly clear, the Gears of War movie has NOT been officially cast yet, these are merely our “shooting the shit” selections."



Even though Cliffy...err, Cliff Bleszinski said that he doesn't think a wrestler should be cast, I don't mind these fake choices. Anyways, thought it was funny.

Uh, The Rock as Dom? Dom is Hispanic, not black.

"He is of half Black Canadian, half Samoan heritage (his father is Black Canadian and his mother is Samoan )."

Glad we cleared that up.

Val Kilmer would be the best Baird ever. Hands down.

I think Rock would be better as Fenix since Batista has Greek/Spanish(part Filipino) blood.

I would suggest Carlos Mencia as Dom since he acts like a hispanic person 24/7 even though that jackass is German.

The Rock is obviously Russian, guys. Get it right.

All this talk about the Rock being a good candidate and no one says anything about Dave Batista as Fenix...?

@Raucci

Well what do YOU think about him? I haven't watched wrestling in like, 4 years so I have no idea if he can act or not, probably not. But this is all for fun anyways none of these will actually happen, at least probably not.
