Oh please, this type of role requires a real actor! Unquestionably the role would have to go to someone Oscar-worthy. And the winner is...Flavor Falv! :laugh:
Pure genious Sonny! Now the movie definetely would be worth seeing! As for the giant clock you could make one hell of a casey computer out of it and it would provide the perfect cover!

Just curious Bo, how do you know all this info? Do you know any of the original members? That's pretty inside stuff... very interesting.
In honesty, that's all fairly common knowledge if you've spoken to any to the people acutually involved in the team. Truth told if you ever speak to Mike or Jeff it wouldn't take you long to realise that in reality if you reversed the personalities of the 2 characters in the book, you'd be far closer to the truth.
Mike's a very humble and good natured person - the most genuine person i've spoken to in the community. Jeff on the other hand is fairly egotistical, it just suited the story Mezrich wanted to tell better if Jeff was the quiet humble nice guy rather than the guy who shot himself in the foot.

You’re absolutely right. The casinos will tighten up after the movie comes out, but I think things will quickly return to normal (if not better). What’s the best thing that could possibly happen to the game of blackjack? The casinos could be flooded with ignorant ploppies so that their BJ profits skyrocket despite us APs collecting our share. Once the casinos realize how many wannabes are boosing their hold they will begin to loosen up. They might even restore some of the good S17 LS games. More importantly, although unlikely, if the movie shows how terrible rules like 6:5 are then even the ploppies will avoid those games!

Hallelujah this could be a rebirth! :grin: Although, having seen the kind of BJ programs coming out of Hollywood, I doubt it. :(

In the meantime, I’ll have to keep working on my own BJ movie. It’s going to star Zengrifter as the career gambler who hit a rough patch but takes a troubled (handsome!) young prodigy (Sonny) under his wing. There will be guest appearances by iHate17 as the shrewd casino manager, his niece as the savvy dealer, ScottH and SuperCoolManCool as the small-time scam artist who join the team (have they finally gone legit or is this their biggest scam?), Auto Monkey as the brilliant but eccentric bookstore owner who lets them practice in the back of his warehouse, Brutus as the strip club owner who finances the team (and knows where to find the sexy ladies!), and Sam Waterston (I just like him).

Needs something for Stalker, the bitter iconic holecarder who calls all counters "pathetic!" zg
