But I already HAD proof that I'm crazy
Apr. 26th, 2011 11:53 pmI am suddenly envisioning the cast of Blake's 7 in the roles of Inception.
Blake as Dom, of course, and Avon as Arthur. The tormented hero and the cynical, organized companion.
Servalan as Mal; she was even a mother in canon, if briefly.
Cally as Ariadne, I think; the outsider introduced to a new culture, a bit innocent, but possessing skills the others don't have or can't match. Dayna is more a fit in age, but she's just too single-minded.
And, inevitably, Vila as Eames, though he hasn't a noticeable talent for disguise. Still, he'd supply the witticisms and the cool interest, the necessary foil to the intensity and the pragmatism.
Alas, there's no place to put the others--Jenna and Zen and Orac and Gan and Dayna and Tarrant and Soolin, though Travis could easily play a Cobol thug. Nor is there an immediate match for Miles or Saito. Or are there? It's been so long since I watched the series...
"Other people's property comes naturally to me." Tell me you can't hear that coming out of Eames' mouth.
