IMDB lists "Deep Roy" (who?) as the only Oompa-Loompa in the upcoming Charlie and the Chocolate Factory remake. Who do you think would make a good Oompa-Loompa? Danny Devito is an obvious choice (given his relationship with Burton already), but he's a little old for the part. I vote for Jason Alexander from Seinfeld for overall Oompa-Loompa-ness

These guys are Ooompa Loompas, for those not in the know.

I did a search, but couldnt find his name. The little guy from "Jackass"

Posted by Stephen Frazza (Member # 2320) on 01-22-2005, 11:30 PM:

The little guy from Jackass is- Jason 'Wee Man' Acuña.

And he already has dressed up like one and skated in some of the Jackess episodes.

Not sure who the guy on the left is.

Posted by Thomas Procyk (Member # 1170) on 01-23-2005, 10:47 AM:

LOL!!!

I was going to say the one on the far left looks like Phil, but it looks more like Jack Valenti. [eyes]

What's an Oompa Loompa? These people apparently have some very serious personality defects. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against cross-dressing, Phil does it, Brad does it, and I guess Mark does it too. But don't you think these Loompas overdo the hair and makeup massively?

DAMN! Randy and Jen both beat me to my suggestions! [Big Grin]
