I feel very worried about this one, I have no idea if this is going to be a slog to go through or if there's enjoyable bits in there. Personally though I enjoy the chance to focus on establishing Jason and Roy's personalities more. You even get a peek into Roy's pov! What a treat.

The Characters I Want You To Play

(Photo edit by me)

As a fan of Taylor Zakhar Perez, I often find myself daydreaming about the various characters I’d love to see him portray. Taylor’s impressive range as an actor, combined with his natural charisma and undeniable talent, makes him a versatile candidate for a plethora of roles. His performances in his previous projects have consistently showcased his ability to embody the complexity and dynamic energy of characters, and that makes him a favorite among dedicated fans and [hopefully] casting directors alike. 

With this idea in mind, I’ve personally compiled a list of dream roles that I believe would not only highlight his strengths as an actor but also allow him to explore new facets of his acting prowess. Note that these are just my personal choices and do not necessarily reflect the opinions and preferences of others, but I hope they spark your imagination as they have mine.

FLYNN RIDER (TANGLED)

(Photo edit by me)

Taylor as Flynn Rider has been a long-time fancast favorite. With his charming persona and roguish good looks, Taylor can effortlessly bring Flynn’s character to life. Flynn’s scoundrel side, balanced with his loving and loyal nature, is something Taylor could portray flawlessly. It’s not just about the looks, although Taylor’s brown hair and espresso-colored eyes do bear a striking resemblance to Flynn. To me, it’s about the charisma he exudes, and that makes him the perfect candidate to play one of Disney’s most handsome heroes. 

Also imagine Taylor alongside someone like Sabrina Carpenter as Rapunzel—it would just be pure magic. Taylor’s ability to switch between a cheeky, mischievous rogue and a devoted, selfless hero is exactly what Flynn Rider’s character demands. Taylor’s natural charm and magnetic screen presence would truly make this role unforgettable.

RHYSAND (A COURT OF THORNS AND ROSES BOOK SERIES)

(Photo edit by me; artwork credits from artworks-by-rokii from Instagram)

To be quite honest, simply knowing that Taylor is aware of the ACOTAR series and the character of Rhysand is enough to make me scream. In my opinion, Rhysand is a morally gray character who, despite appearing broody and evil at first, has a lover’s heart underneath. Taylor could adeptly portray both the good and bad sides of Rhysand, and his physicality and racial background align well with the character. With the right co-star playing Rhysand’s love interest Feyre Archeron, Taylor could also provide excellent banter with good comedic timing, adding a touch of humor to the dark and intense setting of the ACOTAR universe. 

This humor would provide a necessary lightness to balance the story’s darker elements. Rhysand’s multi-faceted personality, from his fierce protective instincts to his vulnerable moments with Feyre, would allow Taylor to showcase his range as an actor. His deep, expressive eyes and commanding sort of alpha presence mixed with a gentlemanly nature make him a natural fit for the High Lord of the Night Court.

XADEN RIORSON (FOURTH WING/THE EMPYREAN BOOK SERIES)

(Photo edit by me; Artwork credits from booknuts_ on Instagram)

Xaden is essentially the Rhysand of the Empyrean universe, because he and Rhysand share many similar traits. As a Wingleader and a key political figure in the rebellion, Xaden needs to be commanding, strategic and compassionate at the same time—which are qualities that Taylor has already somewhat demonstrated in his portrayal of Alex Claremont-Diaz in Red, White & Royal Blue. Screenrant.com even included Taylor as a potential actor for Xaden in the upcoming adaptation for the book series. With the right actress playing Violet, Taylor could deliver the same excellent banter and comedic timing, adding lightness to the dark and complex world of Navarre [which is the world that the story is set in].

Xaden’s role demands a balance of intensity and vulnerability, and those are qualities that Taylor has demonstrated in his previous roles and his ability to portray a character who is both a fierce warrior and a compassionate leader would bring the needed depth and authenticity to Xaden.

PATROCLUS (THE SONG OF ACHILLES)

(Photo edit by me)

*if you're the artist of this beautiful art of Patroclus, kindly let me know so that I could credit you properly*

Patroclus is a character who dislikes disappointing others and he is generally described as modest, honest, compassionate, loving, and willing to sacrifice himself for those he loves. Taylor could bring this character to life with his physique and the little nuances that make Patroclus a lovable character. Nicholas Galitzine, Taylor's co-star and friend, has even described him as an "Adonis," which fits perfectly with Patroclus's character. Patroclus’ journey from a young, exiled prince to Achilles’ devoted companion is filled with moments of quiet strength and deep emotional resonance.

Taylor’s ability to convey profound emotion and inner conflict would make his portrayal of Patroclus both compelling and heart-wrenching. His physicality, combined with his nuanced acting skills, would beautifully capture Patroclus’s gentle yet resilient nature.

CHRISTIAN HARPER (TWISTED LIES)

(Photo edit by me)

*if you're the artist of this art of Christian, kindly let me know so that I could credit you properly*

This is a more personal fan cast because reading this book series takes an acquired taste, but I believe that Taylor could excel as Christian Harper. There could possibly be debates over Christian's ethnicity given the chance that Taylor plays him because first of all, Christian is not Latino by any means, but I think Taylor's appearance and demeanor could fit the broody, morally gray alpha male character.

Also, Christian is known for his impeccable fashion sense because he’s always dressed in tailored wool suits and designer fits, which is a detail that aligns with Taylor’s high-ranking status in the fashion world and it could honestly give Taylor a chance to showcase some amazing and sustainable fits. 

Taylor’s ability to portray complex characters with hidden depths would bring Christian’s enigmatic personality to life. His portrayal could explore the duality of Christian’s character—his ruthless, protective side and his tender, vulnerable moments.

MIGUEL O' HARA/SPIDER-MAN 2099 (MARVEL)

(Photo edit by me)

Taylor in a Marvel movie? Yes, please! As a Marvel fan, this is easily a recent fancast that I got behind. Also, Taylor has expressed interest in starring in a Marvel film, and I think Miguel O’Hara, aka Spider-Man 2099, is perfect for him. Marvel characters often have a balance of light and dark sides, and Taylor can embody this duality. Miguel is one of those characters who really has a dark and broody side, and recently, Taylor has expressed interest in doing something darker than his previous projects and so, I think this character is a good character for him to explore and it could probably bring out Taylor’s inner fanboy. 

Miguel’s Mexican heritage also aligns with Taylor’s own and that provides a gateway for an authentic representation of a Latino character/superhero. The character’s futuristic setting and unique storyline would allow Taylor to showcase his versatility as an actor. His portrayal could bring a fresh, dynamic energy to the Spider-Man franchise, highlighting both Miguel’s heroic, human and darker qualities.

DAMEN/PRINCE DAMIANOS (THE CAPTIVE PRINCE TRILOGY)

(Photo edit by me)

*if you're the artist of this art of Damen/Prince Damianos, kindly let me know so that I could credit you properly*

Physically, Taylor is perfect for the role of Damen. Character-wise, Damen is always concerned about the well-being of the Akielon people, especially the ones sent to Vere as slaves, which shows a side of vulnerability. Damen is also known to be warm, dedicated, honorable, idealistic, and friendly. He makes decisions for the sake of others, which often leaves himself vulnerable, but he doesn’t care. Taylor’s previous roles as Marco and Alex make him a good fit for Damen, showcasing his ability to portray vulnerability and dedication.

*At the point of writing this, I haven't read the books yet. Peace y'all!*

DON ALEJANDRO DELA VEGA/ZORRO

(Photo edit by me)

Taylor’s Mexican heritage makes him an ideal candidate for the iconic role of Zorro, who was previously played by Antonio Banderas. Zorro’s dashing charm, mischievous nature, and loyal spirit are traits that Taylor could effortlessly embody. A role like this would allow Taylor to fully embrace his Hispanic background and also give him a chance to try some fencing/sword play.

Whether playing a version related to Banderas’s Zorro or a new interpretation entirely, Taylor’s portrayal would be thrilling. The image of Taylor wielding a sword and a whip, coupled with his charismatic screen presence, would bring a fresh, exciting energy to this beloved character [and could probably send fans like me screaming].

ROBBIE REYES/GHOST RIDER (MARVEL)

(Photo edit by me)

While the idea of seeing Taylor’s handsome face burn via CGI isn’t appealing to me, I am open to the idea of him playing Robbie Reyes which is an iteration of the anti-hero, Ghost Rider. Robbie’s character is driven by vengeance and has a tragic backstory but takes up the mantle of Ghost Rider for his brother’s sake.

The ability to bring humanity to dark characters is a Marvel trademark and I think Taylor would be able to balance both the light and dark sides of your typical Marvel character and that could make him a good candidate for this role. His portrayal could explore Robbie’s internal struggles and his journey towards redemption, which could add a layer of depth to the Ghost Rider’s fiery persona.

LOGAN/WOLVERINE (MARVEL)

(Photo edit by me)

Taylor has expressed his love for the X-Men franchise in multiple interviews. Imagining him as Wolverine, with the proper training and storyline, is thrilling for me. That iconic Port photoshoot with his hair styled like Wolverine’s that he did back in December solidified this dream for me. Taylor could balance Wolverine’s light and dark sides, proving why Wolverine will forever be a Marvel favorite. His physicality and intense screen presence would bring a fresh take on this iconic character, blending raw power with deep emotional complexity.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These are just my personal fan casts for Taylor, and I fully acknowledge that others may have different opinions. It's important to remember that the joy of being a fan includes the freedom to dream and imagine our favorite actors in various roles. Manifesting these possibilities can be a fun and fulfilling thing and it allows us to explore the endless potential of Taylor's career. Regardless of whether he lands any of these roles, my admiration and support for Taylor will always stay there. 

Taylor has already proven himself to be an exceptional talent, and whatever direction he chooses to take his career, I have no doubt that he will continue to impress and inspire. Each project he undertakes showcases his versatility and dedication to his craft, and as fans, our role is to support and celebrate his journey. The beauty of his career is that it’s full of surprises, and part of the excitement [and waiting] is seeing what he will do next.

At the end of the day, it’s not just about the roles he plays but about the joy and inspiration he brings to our lives through his work. So here’s to Taylor Zakhar Perez, an actor of immense talent and potential—may his journey be as bright and exciting as the characters we dream of him portraying. Let's keep supporting him, celebrating his successes, and dreaming big, because that's what being a fan is all about.

Tolerance Project extra The 8 Best Star Wars Rip offs Ranked

Part 2 Battle Beyond the Stars Battlestar Galactica and Flash Gordon 1980 and Spaceballs

Introduction

Welcome to the second part of my blog looking at 8 of the best films which RIP off Star Wars this chapter covers Battle Beyond the Stars Battlestar Galatica the original series from 1978 the 1980 film version of Flash Gordon and Spaceballs

Battle Beyond the Stars (1980)

Battle Beyond the Stars was produced by the famous B-movie director Roger Corman. Who died on May 11th 2024 you can read a tribute here https://variety.com/2024/film/news/roger-corman-dead-producer-independent-b-movie-1235999591/

 His rip-off follows a farming world being threatened by warlord Sador (Darth Vader) who needs body parts to salvage his own deteriorating body. He possesses a Stellar Converter that turns planets into stars unless their inhabitants comply. By proxy, volunteers (Rebels) band together to thwart the doomsday machine. The film is comically derivative and was intended to be a Magnificent Seven in space.

My Memories of Battle Beyond the Stars

Not really a Star Wars Rip off its more Magnificent Seven in Space but its its still a great film I remember seeing it on ITV network one afternoon the story didn’t really grab me but I thought the acting was great I remember thinking what is John Boy from the Waltons and Hanibal Smith from the A Team doing in Outer Space lol

For those Wondering what I am talking about ha ha Richard Thomas who played John Boy Walton in the long running series played Shad the hero of Battle Beyond the Stars. George Peppard now more well known for playing the role of Haniball Smith in the A Team played the role of Cowboy in the film.

Further Watching

Battlestar Galactica (1978)

Battlestar Galactica began with the television pilot "Saga of a Star World" and was released theatrically as a standalone film. A thousand-year-old war in a distant star system between humanity and a robot race known as the Cyclons. A peace treaty is reached but ends in deception after the promise of sparing the Cyclon race was broken.

They use the Battlestar Galactica to protect them from the impending robotic fleet. The film and short-lived series led to a copyright infringement lawsuit; the planet Carillon, for example, has a gambler's den similar to the Mos Eisley cantina.

My memories of Battlestar Galactica

For me the original and best version of the show Again speaking as I find the Star Wars references went over my head. I loved the series as a kid  for a number of reasons. One was the classic theme tune by Stu Phillips https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzyHxYxc to listen to an interview with the composer click here : https://filmumentaries.com/2023/06/78-stu-phillips-composer-battlestar-galactica-knight-rider-etc/

The charectors of Starbuck and Apollo played by a pre A Team Dirk Benidect and Richard Hatch I also loved the space battles with the Cylons who were great baddies

Talking of the Cylons the blinking eye motif that moved across their faces would turn up  again in another Glenn Larson series for the grill in the talking car action series Knight Rider.

I also loved the stories as well about them trying to find somewhere called planet Earth a planet for them to settle on a place to call home they would find Earth but not until the sequel series Galactica 1980 which took place 30 years after the original series .

Flash Gordon (1980)

Flash Gordon is a space opera superhero film based on the comic strip of the titular character. Its story follows an unlikely hero who receives aid to stop a ruthless alien tyrant from destroying the Earth. George Lucas attempted to secure the rights to make his own adaptation of the space faring hero, but when denied, he made Star Wars instead. The film has since reached cult status for its campy, exaggerated costumes, set design, and special effects.

My Memories of Flash Gordon

Again this is not a Star Wars Rip Off Flash Gordon was arround in the early 30s and 40s long before Star Wars was even thought of.

I used to watch the old black and white serials with Buster Crabbe during the summer holidays you can watch a trailer for Flash Gordon conquers the universe by clicking here  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlEWl3igd0c

Also this article is worth a read about how the 1930s Buster Crabbe Flash Gordon seriels changed scifi https://www.tor.com/2019/08/21/the-flash-gordon-serials-of-the-1930s-changed-the-face-of-sci-fi/

 I had also seen the classic Filmation animated series The New Adventures of Flash Gordon 1979-1982 which again was shown during school holidays  and loved that  the first series more than the second.

So I was well grounded in Flash Gordon before I saw the film I first remember seeing this film as a movie première shown on the BBC during Christmas in the early 80s and I have loved it ever since.

The film is really well done acting and effects wise and Queen who I also love did an excellant soundtrack for it Flash’s theme which you can see by clicking here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfmrHTdXgK4 is a great example  I think its a real shame that there was no sequel to follow it I would have watched it anyway

Spaceballs (1987)

They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and Spaceballs is the funniest love letter to Star Wars in the entire galaxy. The parody created by comedian and filmmaker Mel Brooks follows mercenary Lone Starr (Han Solo), his half-man, half-dog sidekick Barf (Chewbacca), Princess Vespa (Princess Leia), and the wise, old alien Yogurt (Yoda), who teaches them the power of the Schwartz (the Force).

Together, the ragtag team stop the planet Spaceball from stealing the air from Vespa's home planet. The comedy also makes jabs at other franchises, including Alien, Planet of the Apes, and Star Trek.

Probably the best Star Wars Rip off of them all is this one George Lucas even liked it the only thing he told them not to do before giving the production team the green light was asking them not to produce any merchandise for the film

hits u with my dragon beam

tha boys and their dragons from the au i am self-indulgently messing with. green, bronze, and brown. these are scaled to their actual sizes relative to one another & their riders.

reasoning/more info under the cut. when i say 'niche audience' i mean the approximately One Person who knows my characters and has also read a pern book (me. i'm the one person it's me)

Féiix is a green rider obvs. I think it's really generous of dragons to have a colour specifically for bottoms. Her name is Estibarith and she ends up committing matricide by stubbornly rising at the same time as queen Lenath, to protest the weyrwoman's abusive treatment of her rider. Estibarith is legendarily short-tempered and protective, and although her rider might continually reassure her that his arrangement with the weyrwoman (as her personal spy; he is an ex-harper) is healthy, Estibarith has other ideas. She is quite good at precise hops between, which is how she manages to bait Lenath into flying head first into a mountainside.

Islin's bronze Taranth is very big, very gentle, and completely unwilling to do his duty as a bronze in any capacity at all. He has a... complicated relationship with Lenath and endures a good amount of ridicule, but Islin is adamant that he will never make a bid for weyrleader as this involves sleeping with the weyrwoman and queen (he'll settle for being wingleader). A strong disagreement over Félix's spywork and loyalty to Lenath leads Islin and Taranth to walk out from their weyr, and operate out of a different base for years before Lenath ultimately dies from failing to compete with Searrath on a mating flight. He is the only bronze rider who is not originally from a weyr.

Francis's brown Nllath was almost killed by Lenath when he hatched. As the son of the newly-ousted ex-weyrleader, Francis could have easily impressed a bronze and ousted the current weyrleader, so the weyrwoman conspired to prevent it from happening. Lenath broke Nellath's leg during the hatching, and only the invervention of Francis's father's bronze saved both himself and the injured hatchling from what appeared to be the queen's random fit of infanticidal rage. Nellath recovered well and became a very popular brown dragon and an impressively good shot with his flames. He has attempted several times to chase a queen (usually one of the juniors, still a little wary of Lenath), and has even succeeded more than once. Francis and Nellath support one of those junior queens during an attempted ousting of Lenath and the weyrwoman, but never expected that Félix's loyalty to the weyrwoman would separate them for years (until Lenath goes out carcrash style against a mountainside, as previously mentioned)

It's my first time trying to write a full conspiracy over the course of the characters' lifetimes so it's pretty fun!

[calolily]

Astarion, rider of green Elarath.

His name isn’t shortened with an apostrophe for a reason. This is art for my Dragonriders AU you can read it here:
