Title: think this guy could play marco if there was ever a live action anything?
Post by: bizarrocarlos on March 11, 2010, 09:54:33 PM
i don't know about anybody else but when i read about marco, when he's making jokes, spoony seems to come to mind. (noah antwiler)
maybe it's just the way he has his hair, or that he's really funny in his reviews. anybody else imagine spoony as marco??? ;D

Who? :eyebrow: Post a picture of him? Or something?

Erm... he's just a reviewer? Reviewers... don't act. :P

- no picture
- as said before, actors act.
- after googling the guy, he doesn't look right at all. for starters, marco is hispanic.

I don't think this looks right for Marco, but... this guy's hairstyle is totally how I picture Jake's (only light brown, not dark)  :-]

And I know it's boring but I always did like the kid on the front of Marco's first book and I think that's how Marco would have looked - hispanic with long hair and THAT smirk, totally Marco

I think he has the appropriate personality, but I could not see him doing it in a LA series because 1.) he's too old and 2.) he isn't Hispanic.

If they made an animated series or something, though, I could definitely get behind him doing the voice acting for Marco.

I'm familiar with Noah, but I don't think he's be a good Marco. he's not an actor. He has a nice voice and is good looking, but I don't picture him as Marco or any of the Anis.

nobody is born an actor. but i see the hispanic thing. it's something that could be changed from book to screen. or would everybody hate that? :huh:

Well...the Anis appearances have already been changed from boomk cover to book cover. Like I think Marco's skin color is lighter in book five than the rest of his covers.

Personally I would like a producer to find the cover from back to before, where all the Anis are together with their battle morphs (except Marco shows a snake instead of a Gorilla), and go with that. But of course make some height differences.

I could see Noah as more Jake than Marco, but make his hair brown instead of black. Tobias and marco should look different than he does.

His acting ability and his race are totally besides the point.

HE'S 29!

Okay, yeah, that alone put him out. :P You can't have a 29 year old playing a 13 year old.

then change the ages to 16 instead. animorphs may be a childrens book series,but not the issues it dealt with.

29 is still too old. And anyway--he's NOT AN ACTOR.

Post by: Chad32 on March 13, 2010, 07:22:56 AM
Yeah, I kind of overlooked the point that he's older than I am. Plus he's not an actor.

Yeah.  29? 

15 years ago, and still no.  But he'd be a better fit than a 29 year old. 

Let's cast Rebecca Romijn as Rachel, huh?

Eep.  Maybe a little snippy there, I'm sorry.  Just...come on.  No wayyyy, homey-o.

This pretty much says it for me too. He's a funny guy and all but I don't see him as the face of Marco, voice perhaps.
