methodwriter85 Posted December 15, 2023 Author Share Posted December 15, 2023 I just remembered that when I read Be Rad and Man In Motion originally, I was totally picturing 1980's Kylie Minogue as Claire right down to her fluffy 1980's blonde perm.

She would have followed the trends, at least up until her early 30's. Did any women under the age of 30 actually get through 1983-1988 without having had big hair at least once? LOL You know, I'm starting to lean towards you having had Meg Ryan's Another World look in mind for 80's Claire: It's called the Sloane Ranger look, very popular in the early 80's before the mid-80's when the dayglow Miami Vice/Madonna look took over. I used to think you had based Claire on Charlene Tilton from Dallas but I think early 80's Meg Ryan is more what you had in mind.

methodwriter85 Posted December 31, 2023 Author Share Posted December 31, 2023 (edited) All this talk about past characters made me remember Alexandra Carmichael. The official fancast is Sigourney Weaver. Of course, to align with the age, we need to go with 2010's Sigorney Weaver when she was still in her 60's. (Alex would have to be at least in her 60's, right? She should be close to the age of Isidore, JP, and Fred, who are all late 50's/early 60's.) Such a stunning woman! She's aged incredibly well as a 70-something. I'm assuming she's gone to the school of, "don't do much, keep it subtle."

methodwriter85 Posted January 20 Author Share Posted January 20 Renee Rapp would be a hilarious model for a grown up Maddy Graves. LOL I love Gen Z. They're so kooky. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

methodwriter85 Posted January 29 Author Share Posted January 29 Mark liked Nicholas Galitzine for Kris K. (Just swap out the hazel eyes for blue.) I pictured Sophie Turner as Susannah/Zanie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
methodwriter85 Posted February 11 Author Share Posted February 11 I just realized that this British young adult actor Louis Patridge is really close to how I pictured Jack in my mind when I originally read Be Rad in 2009. (Just lighten the dark brown eyes to hazel brown.) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
methodwriter85 Posted July 4 Author Share Posted July 4 (edited) My Mouse fancast grinding on my Van (On the Mark) fancast at the former's concert. God, Ross Lynch just IS that straightish guy you lusted over and thought maybe, just maybe something could happen. LOL They capture that feeling so well. Other than Van, I could also see Ross Lynch as a really good Ryan. Edited July 4 by methodwriter85 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
methodwriter85 Posted August 28 Author Share Posted August 28 I was watching the trailer for Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story and thought that the "Erik" (Cooper Koch) would make a a pretty good Wade Danfield. He's got that uptight, prissy vibe down pat. Also, Nicholas Alexander Chavez (the "Lyle") is so damn hot. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
