I think this would make a fantastic movie. It would be hilarious and would have good action.

Anybody think of good actors?

Redford - Samuel L Jackson :)
Sweetwater - ?
Haggard - ?
Preston - ?

I just came on here to post this. I personally don't like Samuel L. Jackson as he is know. His older movies we're great but now I can't take him seriously.

After just watching "The Kingdom", I think I'd like to see Jamie Foxx as Redford. He was also good at the Staff Sgt. in "Jarhead".

Yeah, I'm up for Jamie Foxx. He's a great actor. Perhaps Jay Baruchel for Sweetwater (Sandusky in Tropic Thunder) I think he really suits the character.

Arrested Development - The Movie

Try renting "Kelly's Heroes", and you'll see where they got their ideas...

Also Three Kings where they want to steal Saddams gold.

See here's the thing, a lot of reviews that I have read have stated that BF: BC is more funnier than CoD4: MW and a lot more crazier in the action, so it kind of got me thinking, that if this would ever be turned into a movie, then it would somethng that Michael Bay would direct. It's got his name all over it basically, whereas CoD4: MW would more of a Spielberg type film or Paul Greengrass if he ever were to direct a war film. Tell me what you guys think.

How about a shave? I can guarantee the closest shave you'll ever know.

Redford - Keith David (maybe to old) http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0202966/

Haggard - David Koechner (comic relief) http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0462712/

Preston - Harry Connick Jr. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001065/

Sweetwater - ?????

I found Modern Warfare to have a more serious theme in the game which I really like, which fittingly fits well with the story line being as the world is threatened by a rebel group armed with 50,000 nukes.

Where as Bad Company had a more humerous tone, which i too like, seeing as 4 renegade soldiers go on their own mission to find trucks full of gold from a deradly mercenary group. Not so serious which would indeed make a humerous film,

My friend and I talked about if they ever make a movie about this and found out which person would suit which with good reasons.

Redford - Micheal Jai White
The voice sounds about right. If you watch the rainbow sprinkles trailer of Bad Company and then imagine Micheal's voice instead. Low voice and muscular built from Universal Soldier: The Return to Undisputed II.

Sweetwater - James McAvoy
The reason is after watching Wanted, just put glasses on him and make him the first half of Wanted again but with this intelligence.

Haggard - Johnny Knoxville
The first pick automatically when I saw the first trailer of BC and if they made a movie Johnny Knoxville I said should be Haggard because he sounds like him and fits right in.

Preston -And the new guy no idea had one person in mind but left blank.

Honestly I reckon Jake Gyllenhall would make a good Preston Marlowe.
They look familiar, he could put on a rookie soldier voice.
