So I was reading over the
Pulp Fiction script this afternoon...for the zillionth time, and I get to the part where Mia and Vincent have the talk about her TV Pilot...Goes a little something like this...
Mia: It was show about a team of female secret agents called "Fox Force Five."
Vincent: What?
Mia: "Fox Force Five." Fox, as in we're a bunch of foxy chicks. Force, as in we're a force to be reckoned with. Five, as in there's one..two ...three..four..five of us. There was a blonde one, Sommerset O'Neal from that show "Baton Rouge, she was the leader. A Japanese one, a black one, a French one and a brunette one, me. We all had special skills. Sommerset had a photographic memory, the Japanese fox was a kung fu master, the black girl was a demolition expert, the French fox's specialty was sex...
Vincent: What was your specialty?
Mia: Knives. The character I played, Raven McCoy, her background was she was raised by circus performers. So she grew up doing a knife act. According to the show, she was the deadliest woman in the world with a knife. But because she grew up in a circus, she was also something of an acrobat. She could do illusions, she was a trapeze artist -- when you're keeping the world safe from evil, you never know when being a trapeze artist's gonna come in handy. And she knew a million old jokes her grandfather, an old vaudevillian, taught her. If we would have gotten picked up, they would have worked in a gimmick where every episode I would have told a joke.
Vincent: Do you remember any of the jokes?
Etc, etc etc...but everytime I get to this point in the story, I think...SHIT! That would make an awesome flick. We don't really have any cool Ass-Kicking Chick type Superhero's. Sure there is Charlie's Angels...but I'm sorry, without
Jackie Smith, I don't buy it. And besides
Cameron Diaz creeps me the fuck out, and I don't like
Lucy Liu. Sue me. If
QT got his mind wrapped around a flick like this it could be HUGE. I've taken the liberty of giving him some casting options....
First up is Sommerset O'Neil. The blonde one. My personal fave for this role would be
Bijou Phillips. I think she rocks much ass, she has that good girl/bad girl thing going on, and c'mon the girl needs a good script! Enough with the shitty teen angst, Bijou!!! Leave that to
Sean...should you two ever rekindle the flame. Alternates for this roll could be
Jaime Pressley,
Alyssa Milano (should
she go blonde again) or
Denise Richards.
Next up, we have the Japanese one. I'v went ahead and named the character Keiko Suzuki, cuz it sounds like a good asskicking Japanese name. My choice for this roll would be
Chiaki Kuriyama. She played Go-Go Yaburi in the Kill Bill flicks, so she already has QT experience, and she's cute and looks good with a sword. Alternate for this roll could be
Nanako Matsushima.
Next in line the black one. I've named this character Samira Belmont...cuz the name sounds like someone who wanted to kick my ass in highschool...an homage of sorts. I had a hard hard time deciding on who should portray dear Samira. First thoughts were
Angela Basset (too old),
Halle Berry (already did her superhero part in CatWoman, and she's a vapid twit), or
Jada Pinkett (too cutesy). So this was a hard choice for me. I've decided that
Kenya Moore is the best possible choice. She's beautiful in a way that should be illegal, yet I get the feeling that she would go apeshit on you if you even looked at her funny. Jolly good choice for the chick who likes bombs. Alternates could be
Michael Michele or
Vivica Fox...both with the same qualities I see in Kenya.
The french one...the sex fiend who could kill you. Nice. I've named her Sian LaPierre...cuz I liked it, and it makes me think of base laden porn music, and chicks with guns all at the same time. French actresses are all about the sex appeal, so this was hard only in that I had a hard time deciding who turned me on the most. I went with my second choice for this role...
Vanessa Paradis. My first choice was
Ludivine Sagnier, but then I decided she was just a little too wholesome looking. So Vanessa it was. Ludivine could still be an alternate along with
Sophie Marceau or
Roxane Mesquida.
Mia would of course play the roll of Raven McCoy...and yes I realize that Mia Wallace is a pretend person...but this entire post is about my fantasy kick ass chick flick....So there you have it...now we just gotta get QT on the line, and have his people meet my people, and I'm in the money, baby!!!
Whatcha Think???
