Posse UP

Interesting question was asked of me about a week ago. ..

Whilst discussing movies over drinks with a friend, he prompted the almighty brain craning question of:

"If you had a posse, made entirely of movie characters... Who would they be... NOT the actors/actresses.... But the characters."

"Posse? Like an entourage?"

"No, posse as in 'you're going to do something mischievous or ass kicking and you need your clan to back you up... Like an Ocean's 11 or something like that."

"Christ, I don't know... How many can I pick?"

"Hmmm, okay you can pick 13."

"Thirteen? Holy shit.. No way, that's not a posse... That's a small company."

"I know Emma, you can do it... Now pick up the tab."

Alright well this was a tough one to say the least... I sat and finished my Baileys and coffee while pondering for like fifteen minutes but only came up with a mere few. Then I realized that, damn, there were so many!!!
I asked my dear friend if I could ponder it and let him know; but after some quick negotiation it was agreed that I would post the list in here, with a brief explanation of why.

Never go drinking with an editor.

So here it is, for all of you wonderful people to enjoy. LMAO.

EMMA's POSSE

1. Verbal Kint/Kayser Soze - Great planner, manipulator, and strategist. This would be the man that could strategize just about every step of the plan... In the same instance though, you'd really have to 'watch' him... So he didn't screw you out of the 'goal.'
I could see him being the mastermind of the operation without us even knowing the wiser. But since he has no tactical skill or physical endurance in fighting or arms, he would absolutely need the rest of us.
Madame watched this very movie tonight, read her little ditty on Verbal and the rest of the clan on the movie.


2. Hannibal King - Can you say DUH. He'd be there for kicks and kills. Any man with that attitude wrapped up in that physic can be on my squad anyday.
Seriously though, it has nothing to do with his body, or even the way he handles his guns...
um.... Or the way the sweat just kinda drips down the abs in that scene where he gets his ass kicked by that bitch vampire with teeth in her vagina.
No No, definitely the sarcastic but lovable fucking hilarious personality the guy has. Whoever wrote this character knew who I would assume to be my perfect man socially.
Besides... He's a vampire slayer!!!


3. Willy Wonka - Alright, any lady knows why this is. Ummm, fucking Chocolatier on your posse!!!
Every woman needs one of those!!! I chose the more recent (Johnny Depp) version of Willy Wonka over the (Gene Wilder) older flick. I think Tim Burton did a great job with the enigmatic of capturing the Willy Wonka character from the original book by Ronald Dahl.
The glasses he wears could potentially save him from nuclear holocaust (like a locust) and he carries that walking stick (which could be modified to be lethal); so really he's a perfect fit with a talent I could use always... Chocolate for me and my team.

No really though, I adore Willy Wonka's character and boyishness to keep me young at heart... His keen fashion sense... The neurosis which could keep me laughing...
and that awesome Oompa Loompa for mud wrestling.

K, this is getting weird. Moving on.


4. Doc Holiday - lover and Weapons Guy *sigh*
What gets me HOT about Doc Holiday? Jesus Christ I have no idea, is it the accent? The verbose? The sickly complexion? Maybe the blase' attitude? Or the fact that the character is terminal like me... And thus doesn't give a fuck - like me?
He's highly intellectual, cultured and dangerous... Triple threat.
I like it A LOT.
Because of the reasons above, I assume the character would be an awesome lover between the sheets. Nice.
Doc Holiday lights me up like 2 month old Christmas wrap in the fireplace, especially when he says the trademark line in the gun fight with Jonny Ringo.... *sigh*
He's a bad ass, he goes out fighting... And he's loyal. He's some one I'd want watching my back... Side. I'd not wear my bustle for him anyday. I guess I'm a daisy then.


Let's get some broads in on this...

5. Maggie (Point of No Return) - Sure she's a little fucked up as far as manners are concerned, but that's the way I like her... Honestly she's cool like that. Rough, vulgar, reckless.
She cleans up well and I can totally use her as my manipulator.
If that doesn't work, she can take the fucker out with a sniper rifle from 120 feet away.
We could smoke cigars together after the kill and talk about the mantra we share "I never did mind the little things."


6. Umm, another Maggie (Addicted to Love) - I think her position would be Creative Co-ordinator and surveillance. Yeah, she's a kick ass stalker.
I'm trying to convince myself it's not Meg Ryan I'm in love with... And it's tough. BUT nonetheless, I really think she would be a great addition to my posse. Not only is she lovelorn and psychotic, the girl is downright creative in the raw sense.
This is the girl who would stick bubblegum on her shoe and walk through your high-pile carpet on purpose. I could work Maggie on the inside just to watch her stick a roofie in your drink... Right uner your nose.

Then she'd mud wrestle with me on the off hours, or sit and watch movies while eating Ben & Jerry's.


7. Trinity - She rocks the PVC body suit, can take out 20 people in a room in 45 seconds... And keeps up with the boys. I think what I like most about her is that I could use her for Security and Technical issues as well as sphincter bludgeoning.
She's by far the most intelligent emotionally of all women characters, and committed.
I dig her because she doesn't wear her heart on her sleeve like some others, and she works the high heels while doing her aerial kicks.

She'd definitely be on my fight squad, and good for a quick sparring round before the battle.

8. Karl (Sneakers) - He'd be my gopher and covert ops, and well my Swiss Army Knife posse guy.... Only because he's a genius but still innocent enough to corrupt...
I mean to teach the tricks of the trade, err ....

Should I want to retire with Hannibal King to the Caribbean... Or somewhere in Amsterdam, he will be smart and capable enough to run the operation for a while until our return.
His character can do just about anything really, and is endearing enough to fool even the most perceptive of security guards.
I just love Karl... he's cute and clueless.. kinda.


9. Rogue - Necessity here. She's getting a bad rap I think. I could use her as my Lethal Seductress.
I can see her being the one that lulls them back to the room, strips for em, gets their guard down (and their pants)... And then goes down on them.... Only to have the life literally sucked out of their body. Cool.

Really the character has skills, not utilized in the X-Men comics or movies... Can you imagine? Nuff said.
I know I know, there's not supposed to be any 'heroes' in this... BUT, come on!!! She's a hottie in gloves and a large hooded cape!!!
And you gotta admit that white stripe through her hair is smokin'.


10. I'm cheating, because I have to put Gil Grissom on here... And he's not a movie character.
Gil would be my Forensics expert and Informational intelligence person. Though ultimately he's most likely be my mind fuck first and foremost. Wise, cultured, and learned beyond his capacity; he still keeps the sense of humor... twisted, but there.
He'd always play hard to get and never give me a straight answer... but he's smart, and perceptive... and unabaiting. I have a crush on Gil Grissom people, it's a sick crush... I need his brain on my team. Well that and I need to stare at this grey hair.

I could read Balzac with Gil, and we could cuddle. We could have wine and listen to a contierto... hmmm... anybody ever been totally turned on by intellectual conversation?

sorry, just a random question.


11. Jason Bourne - The guy is a killing and escaping machine. He would be on the team for strategy, ass kicking, and identity protection.
I think that the Bourne character is a great one because it's human, but yet so fiercely propelled by something it doesn't completely understand. I mean, that character was projected to show that even a cold hearted operative can get amnesia... fall in love and disappear to India.

Jason Bourne is a good invisible man to have on the team, great escape artist... smart and keen when it comes to strategy... and the boyish face is to die for. NO, to die for.

He'd be the car chase man, the driver, and the one that gets away to bail the rest of us out when we need it... I'd need Jason Bourne for certain.
Hi Matt!


12. Inga (Young Frankenstien)- Personal Assistant.
HA. No seriously, hot!! Terri Garr in her younger years... my god have mercy.

BUT, we're talking about the character in whole... So who wouldn't want a hot swedish chick in a hay cart with cleavage stacked to her chin asking you in you want "A roll in da hay?"

She can assist me with my daily needs while still maintaining her ditzy-ness and ability to underthink shit. Definetly my PA... absofuckinglutely.


13. This was a toss up. It was either Jimme Conway (Goodfellas) or Rusty Ryan (Oceans 11/12). I figured I had enough bad asses in my clan.. I need a playboy that's a thief... So I opted for Rusty. I know I know, but ladies... I'm not a Brad Pitt fan.. i just can't get into it... is something wrong with me?
I like the Rusty Ryan character because he's a ladies man, but knows how to bolt and when. He's also a great clepto with a smile that could melt a marshmellow... and the guy always has a plan.. So I'd need him for strategy too I guess... hmmm.

Could be fun to watch him and Inga go back and forth while Maggie #1 cleans the weapons with Jason and Gil admires his pig fetus in a jar. I, of course would be sitting with Doc and Verbal, waiting for Hannibal to call on my bluff.
I'd have to let Karl fetch a candy bar occasionally so Maggie #2 wouldn't get too unstable and bother Willy... Trinity get's pissed when she does that because the licorice is just not right when he's bothered.


14. Yeah, I'm adding an extra... because I think Sass and I agree that she should be here. Abigail Whistler. HOLY FUCK... if I were straight, she would convert me. I'd have her on the crossbow and lazer whip 24/7.

She's more than a vampire slayer, she's freakin' heart breaker.

This girl can kick ass with the best of them, and she's friggin eye candy. Smart, strong, and ready at all times to spar... she rocks her ipod as she works.
Any girl that whistles while she works, works for me.

And like Sass says "her shoulders alone were worth the price of admission. "

So THERE's my list... I'm watching a movie... But it's most likely porn since I have a review due. Isn't it kinda sad when you get put-off because you have to watch porn?

What the fuck is wrong with me? I think I need to get laid... like, now.
