Caligula

But other than that, it would have been cool if he had done something for the Scary Movie series. I'd also like to see him do a voice for a big-budget animated movie. And with all the voice over work he's done over the past few years, I don't think it's at all out of the question.

I just wish Disney was still doing its big musical movies like they did in the early 90s. With a singing background he could have made a really great Disney sidekick, doing a fun, happy song in the vein of "Hakunah Matata," "Be Our Guest," "Friend Like Me," and "Under the Sea."

Other than animated and spoof movies, though, I don't know if Al would fit in any other type of movie.

That would be SO awesome! I'm not just saying that because I'm a big Phantom fan and because I love that movie(Maybe that's part of it), but I could imagine Al as the good guy who's life gets ruined thanks to someone stealing his music. I would be scared to see him deformed even if it is makeup though. Faust would sound cool on the accordion as well...

I want to see Al in an episode of Doctor Who. That would be awesome.

Weirdojace, you've committed blasphemy - you've put shame on the name of God himself, Morgan "Easy Reader" Freeman!!

I could actually picture Al in "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory"... maybe it would've actually not sucked if Al was in it...

I don't get the "Caligula" thing in the sub-title...

Me neither.

The Simpsons Movie!!!

Or next live-action Trey & Matt's Movie!!

Well... let's see how I can keep this tidy for a family-friendly forum...

"Caligula" was a historical epic from 1979 starring Malcolm McDowell, Helen Mirren, and Peter O'Toole. It was about the journey into madness and eventual death of the Roman emperor Caligula. Sounds tame enough, right?

Well, the filmmakers decided to make it more realistic than other Hollywood depictions of the fall of Rome, which meant that all of the decadence and violence of the time was shown, uncensored, right up there on the screen. (I can't really describe in words just HOW it's shown, especially in mixed company - but I'll put it like this; imagine any extremely violent or explicitly sexual activity, and it's probably in that movie.)

To make a long story short, a few celebrities did it just for the money, and regret it deeply.

I would really like to see Matt and Trey use Al in one of their movies.

I mean, they know each other right? I don't see why it can't happen.

I still haven't seen that movie. I need to check it out sometime.
