Though I'm many had a slight heart attack, there is no Civilization movie on the works, this is a thread about a hypothetical Civilization move. If even the boring as hell story of several nerds from Harvard became the Social Network, then it's time for the Civilization movie!
May the best fictional cast and synopsis win!
Sid Meier: Udo Kier, as dubbed by a mellow Jay Leno.
Bruce Shelley: Probably Newt Gingrich, with copious amount of super black toner on his hair. Although that's mostly because the lady from Throw Momma From the Train is long gone.
Brian Reynolds: Burt Reynolds
Soren Johson: probably Soren Johnson himself, those rugged good looks cannot be contained any longer!
Jeff Briggs:James Carville of course!
Jon Shafer: To be computer generated by leftover Jar Jar Binks outtakes, fans won't even notice the difference!
Synopsis: A young boy from Canadian Kansas, Sid Meir has a dream of creating a game to make his dad come back from World War 2, which was odd because the movie is set on the 60s. With help of his bestest friend Bruce Shelley, Sid builds the first Civilization on his family barn using farm tools, the help of some pigs and hope.
Soon after, Civilization soars and Sid and Bruce go to Hollywood, were their game is the talk of the day. After many cocaine induced gun fights, Sid declares that the world is his. Which is also the talk of the day.
But that's when his Buddy Bruce dies of a long cancer battle. Sid, struggling with grief, decides to go back home, were his old buddies no longer recognize him, and the pigs he worked with on that first Civilization wonder what ever happened to that game, "did it ever made it big?, did you made any money on that? Sid? Sid where are you going, oink!, come back here!".
Back in Hollywood, turns out there has been over 4 sequels of the game, the last being produced by he-who-shall-not-be-named. Upon seeing it, Sid only mutters the word "the horror".
With only his millions to comfort him, Sid moves into seclusion to his Wonder of the World DLC Palace, were he finds little solace from the world, his regrets, lost ambitions and that million dollar lawsuit that those damn farm pigs are working on (which depending on how much money we get from 2k will either be villains or the heroes of the whole thing).
On his deadbed, Sid last words are of course "...One...One more turn".
One more turn being the name of his sled.
Tune in next week, for Civfanatics the movie, were I'll obviously be played by Meryl Strip, since she can play anything.
