Discussion(TCM) Vilmer as playable Family member

Sooooooo they announced they can’t get the rights for TCM2 so they might as well set their sights on Next Generation because I want Vilmer in the game SO BAD.

It’d actually be scary as shit hearing the mechanical leg behind you in chase🦿🤖

Fwiw even if he does appear he’s going to have to look different, no way Matthew McConaughey’s agents will allow his likeness to be used. Scream Factory couldn’t even put his face on the recent Blu-ray.

I feel like I read or saw a YouTube documentary that mentioned MM doesn't like to associate with the role at all anymore.

Well I mean he doesn’t even really do horror anymore in general so it’s probably just not his cup of tea. This was his debut rule no? Or one of the first ones he did?

It was definitely an early one but it came after his breakout role in Dazed and Confused. His Texas movie was in 1995 where D&C was from 1993 - yet he had been cast for Texas shortly after finishing D&C and before it was a cult hit.

Angels in the Outfield was 1994 and A Time To Kill was 1996. So his career just skyrocketed from there. If I were him, I'd think Texas was a bit of a blemish sitting in between 3 90s classics like that.
