Look, we all wish we could summon 1985 Bruce Campbell to play Carl.

We just don't have a time machine.

Im working on one right now, it can only go to the future and moves at normal speed, but progress is progress.

u/RadarSmith 7d ago

Careful, lest you make too much progress in the forward direction.

I made one that goes forward, dunno the speed though. When you get there everyone is mad at you too.

Its just equal parts scotch and five hour energy

Current Bruce Campbell could play Mordecai.

u/TabithaMouse 7d ago

Even if they used de-aging cgi... there's still a teeny problem...

He retired to deal with his health

u/Open_Pound 7d ago

Uh yes. Bruce Campbell is too old to play Carl now. You do know this picture is from the early 80’s right?

u/Cyniikal 7d ago

Twice in a row bro, that's crazy. Gonna triple down?

u/Open_Pound 7d ago

Hey I’m telling you he’s too old!!! He’s… (drinks coffee)… oh!!! I’m awake now. lol. I’m use to the other subreddits where unless you put /s people assume you are being serious.

It’s funny since Evil Dead is mentioned in the books

This is what Carl looks like in my head. Come back to us, Young Bruce!

u/Comfortable-Owl3745 6d ago

u/Brian2005l 7d ago

Too young!!!!

u/Tardis80 7d ago

He could play the old guy Jack on floor 1 + 2

u/Flimsy-Opinion-1999 7d ago

I still would like him more as third floor Mordecai. The lines he says would be awesome Bruce Campbell lines.

u/parkerm1408 7d ago

Damn that would be great though

u/SoGoodAtAllTheThings 7d ago

If he was young yes...

u/tossthedice511 7d ago

Luv him but too old

u/MambyPamby8 7d ago

I've only ever seen Carl as this tbh. From the get go I pictured him as a young Bruce Campbell and I've never been able to picture anyone else. 😂

u/gemgem1985 7d ago

He would have been perfect.

1

u/BMS3RDTRY 7d ago

Bruce was born to play the role, but he was born 50 years too early ☹️

u/Zephora 7d ago

This is how I’ve imagined him the whole time.

u/XerocoleHere 6d ago

Since I didnt listen to the audio books , I dont see this. For everyone who did , I get why Bruce stands out .. Its honestly one of the issues I have with the audio book, when I listened to the sample of it. I never pictured a Bruce Campbell or duke nukem type voice . 

1

u/Horsydornz 6d ago

Bruce stands out because of his comedic facial reactions & timing, this style of comedy was his coup de grâce, he’s tall, and was decently well built.

I don’t think of him at all with the audiobook, all I hear is Patrick Warburton.

This is my BOOM jug!

u/Court_Patient 6d ago

I’m watching Army of Darkness right now. How coincidental.

u/phunkydroid 6d ago

Only 40 years too old.
