“To be in love”
From the comments in Capitol Swell’s post on the hotness of Grace Park comes this interesting tidbit from the seed.

The only thing that sucks about watching Battlestar Galactica is that it isn’t Macross. That batlles definitly look like a scene from any Macross battle, the ship full of citizens just trying to make ends meet. Man it’s so close to being Macross. Battlestar is just a TV show and it’s truly amazing. Just imagine a live trilogy movie adaption of Macross. I’m not saying the whole Robotech Saga, just Macross. It would blow away anything before and after.
Battlestar Galactica is a very good show. I have it on TiVo and usually watch it Saturday mornings just to catch up. Grace Park doesn’t do it for me. She’s too cylon-y. She’s hot in that picture, but…
Anyway, I liked the Macross interjection in the comment. So let’s open up this joint and see who to cast in a live version of Macross. I am starting this thread to see who you think should play the parts.
Instead of being serious, I am going to start with something amusing: casting the “Frat Pack” in the male roles.
Roy Fokker : Vince Vaughn
Rick Hunter : ??? [I don’t know]
Breetai : Jon Favreau
Captain Gloval : Stephen Root
Khyron : Ben Stiller
Ben : Owen Wilson
Max Sterling : Luke Wilson
Dolza : Will Ferrell
Exedore : David Duchovny
Lynn Kyle : Ron Livingston
The women’s roles? Let’s get some hotties.
Lisa : Rachel McAdams
Lynn Minmei : Devon Aoki [I don’t like this pick, but who knows hot young chinese actresses?]
Claudia : Gabrielle Union
Azonia : Catherine Zeta-Jones
Miriya : Kate Beckinsale
Sammie : Kirsten Dunst
Kim : Lindsay Lohan
Vanessa : Eliza Dushku
Now that is a funky list. The actresses are hot and the men are funny. I wonder how that would work? Post your’s in the comments.

Good choices I concur with most of them…the opening for Rick Hunter is hard to fill. I suggest Matt Damon.
hmmm…a young Johnny Depp could make a good Rick Hunter.
I got it Jason Schwartz from Rushmore as Rick Hunter
Sarah Tanaka is a good minmei…cheese and crakers is wes anderson directing too.
You could probably rearrange every single one of the male actors and still have an interesting list.
For example, David Duchovny could play Roy and move Vince Vaughn to the Khyron role, thereby allowing Ben Stiller to play Exedore. And things wouldn’t change one bit.
As for the Rick Hunter role. That’s going to be a problem to fill out. We need a young lead here.
BTW, where’s your lists?
Who would direct this.. Pitof? Hee hee. I think this guy should direct it. Where the hell hasn’t that movie been released yet? It’s stored away with Nightwatchers I guess. Anyways, I did a little listing with pics on my blog. Here’s one.
Hey Athos where’s your’s dude. I do like your choice for Rick. Wyman’s Johnny Depp could work for Kyle. =)
Steven Root… hee hee. He should be Rick, Dave Foley could be Max and Joe Rogan as Ben. Andy dick as Captain Global, the eccentric Admiral. Speaking of Rogens.. why not Seth for Ben?
Man that verification was funky. Look at the z tucked away under the “f”. I just failed it.
