Melissa Kearcher, she of Dr. Blink coloring brilliance, noted that she and Chris Jone were discusssing their takes on a potential Dr. Blink movie:
Cajones maintains that Dr. Blink should be played by Bill Murray. While I think that is an admirable choice, I say that Blink should definitely be played by Rick Moranis. (I further argued that Moranis needs the work more than Murray these days.)
We agree that Bruce Campbell should be bleached blonde to play Major Amazing.
I think Patrick Warburton should voice Red Granite, but that’s only because I want to hear him speaking in a Russian accent and singing, “I am being rock. I am being i-i-i-island.” Warburton could also be Captain Omnipotent. Hell, he could probably play half the male cast. I don’t care, he just needs to be there!
Gary Owens should voice Nocturne. Yup.
Older Wonder Boy? Clint Howard. Or perhaps Mark Hamill.
Matt Frewer should be the Quizzler.
Of course, there were many other wild ideas that I can’t remember now. We had thoughts for both Tracy and Emma, but I can’t for the life of me remember what they were.
I’ve never really thought about things like this. I had a vague notion that Eugene Levy might make a good Doctor Blink, and that Adam Sandler wouldn’t. But that’s about as far as it got. The only thought ever given to a Dork Tower movie was that Jack Black in “High Fidelity” seemed to come closest to the sort of manic energy that anyone playing Igor would need.
