N!S #5

[immortality.livejournal.com]

Everyone would be pissing themselves over how ~cool and ~deep it was. And fawning over all the sexy men.

Re: N!S #5

[trillianastra.livejournal.com]

Agreed. Of course, in a perfect world, it wouldn't change the story at all. *sigh*

(the, um, average level of acting ability might drop, though, if it was the actors pictured in the secret. I'm thinking Alex Pettyfer = boy!Sweet Pea... and now I'm going to stop typing and start thinking genderswap!AU fic.)

Re: N!S #5

[immortality.livejournal.com]

And Zach is totally boy!Rocket. I don't know the Asian guy, but he is pretty enough to be boy!Baby Doll. And then Robert and Taylor would be boy!Blondie and boy!Amber, respectively.

But who would play Blue, Madame Gorski, the High Roller, and the Wise Man? Well, I guess Blue and the High Roller could stay the same (lol). boy!Madame Gorski could be Johnny Depp. girl!Wise Man would be played by Julie Andrews.

Re: N!S #5

[trillianastra.livejournal.com]

Totally late but... if we genderswap *everyone*... what about Carla Gugino as Blue?

(and on that topic, Jon Hamm would make an interesting male!Gorski...)

The weird thing is, I cast the boys in exactly the same way you did...

Re: N!S #5

[tenebrais.livejournal.com]

In theory, given that a large part of the story and setting is a comment on the generally sexist approach to women's roles, it would have a fairly significant change.

The fantasy wouldn't be set in a brothel, for example.

Re: N!S #5

[(Anonymous)]

...No, people would be pissing themselves over how ~gay~ and extremely homo it is considering all of the stripper-like moves and brothel scenes. Not to mention the fabulous clothes.

Re: N!S #5

[lesbido.livejournal.com]

I don't think the "gay" would be so overt. No more than any other Zach Snyder movie. Which is to say, "Yeah there's subtext here, lots and lots of subtext, but we are choosing to ignore it because it might crush our view of the ~*~manly men~*~". But there would also be fangirls. LOTS OF FANGIRLS.

Re: N!S #5

[sindragosa.livejournal.com]

Except this unhappy camper right here. I saw Sucker Punch because I wanted to see GIRLS KICKING ASS, not GIRL AUDIENCE MEMBERS CREAMING OVER YAOI OMG OMG.

Not to mention I can't stand RPatz and Taylor Whats-his-face. I don't even know who the other three are, but they seem to be chosen on looks alone.

Re: N!S #5

[immortality.livejournal.com]

Oh, don't get me wrong, I wouldn't like an ~boy version of this movie either. But jfc a movie like that would have legions and legions of fangirls.

I don't think they're good either, I think the point was that the movie would have been shit but people would have loved it anyway because:

1. Pretty boys.
2. Men make every movie better, amirite.
3. Lots of slash subtext.

Re: N!S #5

[sindragosa.livejournal.com]

I quite agree. I was just getting mouthy about it because it goes against pretty much everything I went to see in Sucker Punch, which caused the rage. :|

Besides (and I think this was said on another Sucker Punch secret before), if everyone's howling so much for a guy version, they can go watch 300.

Re: N!S #5

[immortality.livejournal.com]

Oh, but don't you know? 300 is a ~masterpiece! Because it has manly men in it! Sucker Punch would have been better if it was about men, because men make everything better.

I really hate the fact that SP gets shit on whereas if it was made with male characters, it would be heralded as a great film.
