Namor Fan Cast Results And Shaman's Sketch

Namor Fan Cast Results And Shaman's Sketch

Yes folks, after much debating and voting, you, the CBM community has decided that Vin Diesel should be the man to play the Savage Sub Mariner. No, you didn't misread that. VIN DIESEL!

Filed Under: Fan Fic

Despite Lee seemingly being the only one wanting him, Diesel has indeed won the poll with over 1000 votes. Zachary Quinto came in a close 2nd.

Here are the final counts:

Hugo Weaving
141 Votes (5.11%)
Jason Behr
241 Votes (8.74%)
Jonathan-Rhys-Meyers
211 Votes (7.65%)
Luke Goss
91 Votes (3.30%)
Nestor Carbonell
33 Votes (1.20%)
Vin Diesel
1,031 Votes (37.37%)
Zachary Quinto
1,011 Votes (36.64%)

Anyway, we can add Diesel to our ever expanding CBM lineup of castings which include a Pussy Cat Doll as Wonder Woman, Jensen Ackles as Captain America and Kate Beckinsale as a German Femme-fatale. I bet Hollywood casting directors are shitting themselves;)

All joking aside, Shaman has provided an awesome sketch of the man as Namor which may even sway some opinions..at least on the look.



Get your pics ready for a special Batman villain fan cast coming up.

there's no point since he will never get the role and he also can't act.

Nice! Looks great. I was getting a little burnt on the Cap polls, but a Batman rogues gallery fancast sounds fun. Shaman will you be sketching the winners for that as well?
Shaman
Shaman - 8/28/2009, 8:57 AM
charbelelnasr- There never is a point to having fun except just to "have it".

Bamf7- Depending if i'm "indecisive" on the choice of actors for the batman villain poll (also depending if i haven't already sketched an actor for the role), i'm all up for sketching the winner again as i will sketch the Dr Strange winner as well :)

Well Shaman I changed my mind, I like it! Diesel for Namor!

@Ror. A Batman villain one? is there anyway that you could include somesort of Batman story contest featuring the villains that person has chosen?

My votes for Batman villains in the next movie are:

Calendar Man, and Killer Croc.

If you guys don't think they would be good villains check out my Batman 3 Story here:

Batman: End of Days

Adn if you liked that story check out my other stories and castings:

Here is a complete list of my Fan Fictions that I have done here on Comicbookmovie.com:

Justice League of America Vs the Legion of Doom parts 1-3 (Never finished)

A sequel to a story I never actually wrote. This has an already formed League face down the Legion of Doom in a desperate bid for survival. They are the shortest things I have written on here, only about 5 pages each.

http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/OnlyZodKnowsWhy/news/?a=6375

http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/OnlyZodKnowsWhy/news/?a=6474

http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/ChroniclesofMoeniaArcis/news/?a=6608

From that incomplete story I moved on to Batman, with my first and favorite story "Batman 3: End of Days" This story featured Calendar Man, Killer Croc and the Mob, it is still my favorite story. This story gave Batman a chance to show his true mettle as a detective.

http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/ChroniclesofMoeniaArcis/news/?a=6927

After that I decided to put my own personal touch on the Riddler and Catwoman in my story "Batman 4: Dark Side of the Mind" This also introduced Black Mask and Hugo Strange to be used in later stories. I also introduced Dick Grayson and Tony Zucco.

http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/ChroniclesofMoeniaArcis/news/?a=7030

After that I wrote the two part "Batman 5: Shadow of the Bat" in which I decided to tackle my greatest challenge. I brought back Black Mask from my previous story, I also introduced Harley Quinn, and brought back the Joker, in what is definitely my darkest story to date. This story also has a sub plot with Gordon that I really enjoyed writing, giving him a dark tragedy. It also had another sub plot featuring Dick Grayson becoming Robin in order to take revenge on Tony Zucco.

The story had a running narration by someone observing the events, who was revealed at the end to be Bane.

It is defiantly my longest story thus far near 50 pages total.

Part 2:

http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/ChroniclesofMoeniaArcis/news/?a=7841




I decided to take a break from Batman and I took my first steps into the Marvel Universe with my own story about Marvel's favorite super spy, Nick Fury. This story acted as an origin story and showed the birth of S.H.I.E.L.D.

http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/ChroniclesofMoeniaArcis/news/?a=8513

And that brings me to what several people have said was my best story, The Avengers. This story was all about the forming of the Avengers and the challenges they faced trying to work together as a team, it is a blending of the Classic and Ultimate teams.

http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/ChroniclesofMoeniaArcis/news/?a=8602

After Avengers I decided to finish my Batman story with my own interpretation of Knightfall. I brought in Barara Gordon, Azrael, Renee Montoya and Holly Robinson. The story featured Hugo Strange slowly going insane, hounded by the ghost of a dead patient, that is later revealed to be the Riddler, who manipulated everything. The story ended with Batman's fateful confrontation with Bane.

Yeah, I thought this was worthy of being up on the main page too.

Shaman - Cool deal! Looking forward to the sketches.

Shaman it is a badass sketch, but Zachary Quinto should be Namor IMO.

LEEE777 - 8/28/2009, 9:32 AM
Bwhahahahahhahahhahahhaah!!!!

Hey this should be in MAIN lol!

VIN DA MAN!

VIN IS NAMOR =

LEEE777 - 8/28/2009, 9:35 AM
MYTH @ Are you shitting me??? SPOCK as NAMOR!!!?

LEEE777 - 8/28/2009, 9:44 AM
HELL YEAH!!!



Shaman
Shaman - 8/28/2009, 9:44 AM
HAWK!!! REALLY!!! You switched over to the Pitch Black side? COOL!!! That makes it a great compliment ;)

Thanks Myth!!! Glad you like :) The reason i agreed to sketch the winner was that i liked every pick so i couldn't decide. Like i said above, i'll be sketching the winner of the DR Strange poll as well. There's another bunch of great actors i can't decide between. I think Johnny Depp won the poll but i'm not sure...

When i was done with the Vin sketch, i coulda sworn he also looked like a great candidate for a Black Adam!
LEEE777
LEEE777 - 8/28/2009, 9:56 AM
Cool pic @ SHAMAN @ Kudos!!! ; )

An hell yeah, JOHNNY DEPP for DR STRANGE!!! : D

Nice drawing, but still very very against Vin as Namor.

InTylerWeTrust - 8/28/2009, 10:20 AM
It's a pretty good drawing, not one of your best, but I still hate Diesel for Namor.
LEEE777
LEEE777 - 8/28/2009, 10:29 AM
Well get over it lol!

VOTE DEPP FOR STRANGE ppl!!!



; )

InTylerWeTrust - 8/28/2009, 10:32 AM
You didn't get over the fact that Mikkelsen won Red Skull poll :)

Depp won. I just checked. He got 500 votes. I don't really care, because he was going to win anyway. I still know Neeson is much better for Strange.
Shaman
Shaman - 8/28/2009, 10:49 AM
Thanks to all the compliments that accompanied the cringing LOL :P

Well, my next sketch will be Michael Biehn as Cable and after that i'll do the Depp as Strange sketch. Both should be posted up late next week, at the same time.

I bet you didnt think this vote was rigged,lee lol.
DDD
DDD - 8/29/2009, 2:55 AM
Great drawing Shaman! You did a lot of embellishing, I see, to fit Diesel in as Namor! It's just great! You made Diesel look good on the outside but Vin's voice and mannerisms are just laughably all wrong for Namor, laughably!

@Leee, you over-gloat like a total braying jackass when you win and you wine on and on and on...like a little girl when you lose! You remind me of a 6 year-old bully in the school yard!

Diesel's also too blimp-muscled to look natural as a swimmer's body like Namor! He just looks like a street thug with Spock ears to me! But that's one fine embellishment, Shaman. :):):)

Bring on Michael as Cable! I can hardly wait!
LEEE777
LEEE777 - 8/29/2009, 5:47 AM
DDD @ Heh heh! An if you actually ever read a NAMOR comic he is the exact same size in body as VIN! ; )

bub @ ; D



Cool @ SHAMAN!!! ; )
Minotauro
Minotauro - 8/29/2009, 1:59 PM
Namar? Him and Aquaman are probably the most worthless and, useless characters anybody can imagine!!!..I mean really? Is there actually crime under water?!...HA! HAHAHA...no. >:\
Shaman
Shaman - 8/31/2009, 7:59 AM
I hate to say it but Minotauro kinda has a point. I've never been a fan of speedo dwelling heroes on either side of the fence. But i think physically as much as presence and talent wise, Luke Goss would probably be the best choice.

Thanks DDD! Actually, the only thing i embelished on was his hair (intentionaly anyway LOL). The rest is pretty much exactly like the picture i chose... let me see if i can find it for you...

Here you go:

StephenStrange
StephenStrange - 9/5/2009, 10:11 AM
wow... That's very good work Shaman. I'm not exactly a Diesel fan but that is pretty convincing.

DDD, Namor does not have a "swimmer's body". His main power is super strength, and his strength level is on a par with guys like Thing and Collossus.

So in this case the build just makes sense.

TheTopherTap - 9/11/2009, 6:30 PM
I agree he would look great as Namor, but do you really want this guy acting as him! Hell no, for god's sake he did The Pacifer people! Ridiculous concept, no way would I want Vin as Namor
