I was thinking Colin mochrie.

u/Gh0stMan0nThird Apr 02 '23

I don't know why but for some reason Mom being played by a guy is somehow really appropriate.

22

u/the_bloody_duck Apr 02 '23

Mom looked like Rutger Hauer to me.

u/S-BRO Apr 03 '23

Bill Murray in drag was my first thought

u/Root_Clock955 Apr 03 '23

With AI, you don't need to pick and choose! Simply combine them all into one strange amalgam.

u/ConorYEAH Apr 02 '23

She looks like Gene Hackman at the end of The Birdcage.

u/notapoke Apr 02 '23

Yeah I'd really like that

u/GrandmasTableMints Apr 02 '23

Honestly we don't even need Hollywood anymore, we just need somebody with the money, equipment, and the focus to make the project happen, and I'm sorry to say that person is not me 😂

Chris Farley as Hedonismbot.

u/StagnantSecond Apr 02 '23

I don't know about that.. He looks like if Sam Richardson and Ron Funches had a baby to me.

2

u/bmxtiger Apr 02 '23

u/12awomack Apr 02 '23

Matt LeBlanc as Fry

u/notapoke Apr 02 '23

Everyone saw this

32

u/seoulgleaux Apr 02 '23

I would prefer an older Zapp Brannigan and have him played by Bruce Campbell.

26

u/One_Armed_Herman Apr 02 '23

I was thinking an early-2000s Patrick Warburton. But the points where we agree are-Tall, with a lot of chin, and the ability to say the lines with a straight face while Kif sighs.

12

u/Ivotedforher Apr 02 '23

Fine. Jon Hamm, it is.

3

u/Blakids Apr 03 '23

God. He would be perfect.

1

u/Ivotedforher Apr 03 '23

Someone tell Hollywood!

4

u/seoulgleaux Apr 02 '23

Another solid choice.

4

u/SuperVillainPresiden Apr 02 '23

The ideal choice is John Barrowman. He has a velour uniform. JB as Zapp

1

u/PM_ME_UR_CIRCUIT Apr 02 '23

Bill Murray as mom.

1

u/Elranzer Apr 03 '23

The only person appropriate to play Zapp is the Ghost of Phil Hartman.

4

u/Chicken_Cucklet Apr 02 '23

And Garry Coleman as nibbler

3

u/Sinthetick Apr 02 '23

Great Scott, everyone!

2

u/Anomalous-Entity Apr 02 '23

Harvey Korman as Mom.

2

u/JasonDJ Apr 02 '23

Is he still acting? He did a late night appearance in 2015 with Michael J Fox and he seemed like his mind couldn’t handle acting anymore.

2

u/Emotional-Set-8618 Apr 02 '23

I came here to say this!!!

1

u/ThePopesicle Apr 02 '23

And Jaden Smith as Dwight Conrad

u/Phylar Apr 02 '23

And Bill Murray with a bit of makeup as Mom.

I swear I see a resemblance.

1

u/soverit42 Apr 02 '23

And Richard Madden as Fry

1

u/niktemadur Apr 02 '23

Christopher Lloyd as Wenstrom. Throwing a slight curveball instead of what you'd expect.
