I would love 2 c it as an animation either realistic or not.

Odd or not, Hollywood follows a formula. Big Name Actor/Actress must be in just about everything. And Depp is in just about everything. I never said he'd fit well, I'm just saying he'd probably get cast as something......hmmm....maybe Skittles....

Call Me crazy but i think Jim Carey would make a good skittles im not so much weighing him against other actors for the role but he does have a very thin almost starved body type... with a little makeup im thinking he could get pretty convincing. the other thing is he has played a lot of crazy and zainy characters, the only thing is i dont know if he would fit into the serious role, not because he lacks the skill, but people just wouldn't expect it and it might even take away from the story when they expect him to be funny and start complaining in the theater.

Jim Carey has done and can play serious roles. Just not often. He might be a little too old to play Skittles though.

EDIT: Depp is too old to play Michael. Michael is in his late 20s. Depp is pushing 50.

The Voice actors should play their respective parts, with extra's as the zombies or other tower residents. It's only right that the people who do the voice acting play their physical roles in the T.V show (if it happens)

I don't think so. Just because your voice sounds one way, doesn't mean your appearance matches it.

I think they should go an animated route. Keep the voice actors and have animator Genndy Tartakovsky draw it. (the guy that did samurai jack) His style is like an animated 300. Dull colors and bright red blood.

Kc says the problem with animation is that the script is written specifically for audio only, so it would be extremely difficult to animate if not impossible. So they'd have to re-write all the scripts and start from scratch if they were to do an animated thing. They can't just add visuals to the audio that they already have

Only if they went a full animation route. They could do an animated comic book which is essentially just comic panels with limited animation. I've seen a couple movies done this style and enjoyed them.

However, generally that is a very limited audience.
