Klausness

demonrail666 · 04.21.2007, 07:53 AM

Here's a good game to play on long car journeys. Think of three films that would've been improved had Klaus Kinski been in the lead role.

Personally I can't think of many films that wouldn't have benefited from his presence, but anyway.

Mary Poppins.

All Or Nothing.

Any Bond film.

Imagine how much better these three films would be with Klaus at centre stage.

1. Klaus replacing Bruce Willis in Die Hard.
2. Klaus replacing Ewen McGregor in Phantom Menace.
3. Klaus playing Jesus in The Passion.

I had Die Hard in my mind as well.

Replacing Michael Douglas in Wall Street.

Absolutely priceless stuff. I have a subtitled version on video. Incredible.

Klaus was the Iggy of film. Only better.

This is why we love Klaus so much:

Excellent thread, Mr Demon. Here's my three:

1. Klaus playing Adolf Hitler in "Der Untergang" - Klaus would've had the perfect mixture of pathos, charisma and fury.
2. Klaus in the Werner Herzog role in "Julian Donkey Boy" - seeing him play a dysfunctional, near-psychopathic parent would've suited Klaus perfectly.
3. Klaus in the eponymous role of "Taxi Driver" - Klaus wouldn't need any Method acting to get into this character.

True, but even better as Harvey Keitel's Sport. Trying to appear hip and laid back would've just done poor old Klaus in.

I think Herzog was about perfect in this role.

More Klaus (In German) - here, Klaus takes on an irritating audience member and makes him look like the buffoon he is:

I would most certainly agree, but could you imagine Kinski in this role?

demonrail666 · 04.21.2007, 09:42 AM

No idea what he's saying, but it sounds typically Klauslike.

demonrail666 · 04.21.2007, 09:46 AM

I think i've hit gold with this one:

Klaus replaces Robert DeNiro in Raging Bull. If only for the burnt steak scene!

MellySingsDoom · 04.21.2007, 09:48 AM

demonrail666 - There's lots of little insults, such as "Y'know, 99% of people are cool, and are perfectly fine. Then there's this guy...". At the end, Klaus says, "I didn't know this was a panel show where EVERYONE gets to talk", topped off with, "Maybe you should invite him on next week!"
