Raistlin cast
The voice of Raistlin in the coming Dragonlance movie is done by Kiefer Sutherland.
As long as he remembers his Lost Boys days and drops the 24 thing, this could work, I think.
Comments?

Re: Raistlin casted
Here is an odd errant thought...
Wouldn't Donald Sutherland make a fairly good Fistandantilus? (assuming Christopher Lee is unavailable)I played: Arin of the Silver Tongue, Barri Poari

Re: Raistlin cast
Sutherland eh? This movie just might be better than I thought it was going to be.
Just pray they don't give too much emphasis on *important* characters such as Tanis and Raistlin and leave poor Goldmoon and Riverwind in the dust eh?"Yes, I am shaking in my omnipotent boots at their new outfits. I am helpless against the powers of fashion."

Re: Raistlin cast
See as the actress they have playing Goldmoon seem to think she is an American I won't be to worried if she is in the background I only reay care that Tas, Flint, Tanis, and Caramon are done well(In that order).

Church: "Thanks for the support Griff, way to be a team player"
Griff: "Hey I gotta think about myself here"
Church: "There's no 'I' in team Griff"
Griff: "Yeah, well there's no 'u' either, so I guess if I'm not on the team, and your not on the team, nobodies on the god damn team! The team sucks!"

Re: Raistlin cast
I think animation was always going to be the best answer. No, hear me out...
Think of how you picture Raistlin. I doubt any of you would complain about Larry Elmore's interpretation, even if it is not precisely what you were thinking. How many actors do you know who look like that? How about Elmore's Goldmoon?
Animation means getting precisely the look you want and then getting the voice separately. For example, one actor played Megatron in Transformers, Uni in the D&D cartoon, Elminster in Baldur's gate (game) and Nibbler in futurama. Minsc in Baldur's gate was Winnie the Pooh!
And being the rabid fan-boys/girls that most of us are, we would complain about the look of Keifer Sutherland playing a 24 year-old mage but if he has the voice right...I played: Arin of the Silver Tongue, Barri Poari

Re: Raistlin cast
Good point, Prince. The illustrations in the early modules and books had a fairly consistent look (I prefer to think of Diana Magnusson's work there as something that didn't concern me).
Oh, and a link to the official site: http://www.dragonlance-movie.com/

Re: Raistlin cast
I'm looking foward to the Movie...cautiously... :-/
I can remeber when the 1st 3 Dragonlance books came out ...one....book...at-a-time.... AND I HAD TO WAIT!!! Ahhhh!!!...I still have flashbacks to those days of tortured anticipation, sorry.

I think if they can keep the storyline intact and give carefull attention to the animation of the movie, then we might get a decent D&D movie.
The story is great, the books have proven it by their popularity. Let's just hope they can tell it just as well in the movie format.
Oh, and one other thing...Don't listen the music at the website, it is not what it should be...sorry if this sounds harsh. It may make folks think that the people making the movie aren't very serious about trying to make a quality movie.
Unfortunately, now you're going to listen to it, so don't say I didn't warn you

Seriously, what possible difference does it make what the voice actors think? Lawless could think Goldmoon is the priestess of Mystra and that the 'dragonlance' is a lance that dragons use to fight off humans. Why would that have any effect on the story? All she does is provided a voice.

Re: Raistlin cast
Kiefer Southerland? Seriously? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
I am sad now. There is no emoticon that could express this emotion. It is like you own every puppy and kitten in the world and Chuck Norris is your best friend but they all die. Horribly. And kill your girlfriend in the process. I guess I just don't like the thought of HIM doing the voice of my alltime favourite character ever. I will mourn for Raistlin when I can bring myself to do it. :'(http://kevan.org/brain.cgi?Jonathan%20Allan&&&&http://www.planetadnd.com/3Eprofiler/view.php?id=2810&&&&[quote author=Oskar and The Orange Zergling link=board=media;num=1154942947;start=30#35 date=08/09/06 at 18:06:23][\"OMFG TEH NINJAZZZZ TEHY DO TEH FLIPZORZZZZZ\" [/quote]&&
