I saw an X-Files episode where this producer's planning to make a movie based on the X-Files. Mulder asks if they can get Richard Gere to play him, and the producer laughs at him. Later, when Mulder asks who's playing Skinner, it's Richard Gere.

So who would you have playing you? And who would the directors actually cast as you?

Saint Keggers

20:57 / 19.11.02

Megatron....although the damn directors will probably cast one of the Coreys (Haim or the other one)

the Unknown Comic

The Return Of Rothkoid

21:19 / 19.11.02

Bizunth Sharkstroker once suggested I bore an uncanny resemblance to Philip Seymour Hoffman. So if the shoe fits, cast it. As long as it doesn't involve being glued to a chair semi-naked, I'm in.

An ex once said I was a thinner version of Oliver Platt, for what that's worth. Which, I suspect, ain't much.

I think Eddie Izzard could do a good job, but he's prettier than I am.

Hmm. Nominees, anyone?

Mourne Kransky

Dawn French (in Liza's fishnets and hat from Cabaret). There must be music and dancing and we all get to fuck Maximilian...

ONLY NICE THINGS

21:47 / 19.11.02

...noly if we get to fuck Maximilian from the Black Hole, the Disney Classic. In which case I'll be Ultra Magnus.

Heh he he, then I'll be V.I.N.C.E.N.T. (or however that goes) and ignore recommendations of Carrot Top.

Linus Dunce

21:55 / 19.11.02

Don't know about you, Rothkoid, but I'm gonna be ...

Jean Reno

With the milk, but without the under-age sidekick. And slightly less hair.

Linus Dunce

21:56 / 19.11.02

That would be funnier if you'd met me in real life. Trust me.

Jack Fear

22:08 / 19.11.02

You're gonna be a leetle white box with a red cross in it?

Cool. I wanna be played by a Mark Rothko painting.

(By the way, Geocities does not support image linkouts.)

The Strobe

22:16 / 19.11.02

Damien Lewis. Just because. But in the shit American remake, it's Mickey Rourke.

Linus Dunce

22:17 / 19.11.02

But it's working here ... oh right, cache. Ach, follow the link if you've a mind to. Thanks for letting me know, Jack. Goddamn geocities.

The Return Of Rothkoid

22:22 / 19.11.02

That's odd. It's working for me.

Hey, if we're gonna be paintings, I want to be a Francis Bacon. A study for a later self-portrait will be fine.

Murray Hamhandler

23:14 / 19.11.02

Several people have said that I'm a ringer for Richie Hawtin a.k.a. Plastikman (which I can definitely see) and scads of people have told me I look like Moby (which I don't see quite so much). But those are both musicians w/no evidence of acting ability...

So I'll go w/Wallace Shawn. Again. Because I love him and because I'll probably end up looking a lot like him when I get older. If only I could be so lucky...

w1rebaby

23:17 / 19.11.02

Anthony Edwards, only a little fatter and without the sex appeal.

Baz Auckland

01:22 / 20.11.02

Ron Livingston of Office Space fame.

gravitybitch

01:44 / 20.11.02

Louise Brooks. It's a shame she's dead...

Slim

02:03 / 20.11.02

John Cusack since apparently we look very much alike.

Laughing

04:58 / 20.11.02

Todd Louiso (Dick from High Fidelity). Pump him full of caffeine and hang a lit cigarette from his mouth and he's me.

wembley can change in 28 days

06:11 / 20.11.02

Janeane Garofalo, only a little taller and without the sex appeal.

Sax

06:18 / 20.11.02

Terry Christian.

Or John Thompson from Cold Feet.

Or Steve Coogan.

Or anyone Northern, really. Bernard Manning, perhaps.

that

07:32 / 20.11.02

I want to be played by Vin Diesel. Vin Diesel is a very sexy man.

However, I am not a very sexy man. Therefore, I should be played by a bizarre combination of Daria (the cartoon), Hothead Paisan (the comic book character), and Sean Astin as Samwise Gamgee.

matsya

07:33 / 20.11.02

I want steve buscemi.

Oh, and he can play me in the movie adaptation of the sequel to my life, too.

Just trying to get flux's attention.

ha.

STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK

Bruce "fucking" Campbell.

Absolutely no resemblance whatever, I just want him to play me.

Seth

09:42 / 20.11.02

I'll have either Avery Brooks or Chow Yun Fat, please. The latter only if The Sisko isn't available.

Eloi Tsabaoth

10:37 / 20.11.02

Put Elijah Wood through a six month campaign of abuse, chocolate milkshakes and continuous TV watching until he looks really tatty and he's ready to play me.
Or get Edward Furlong.

doglikesparky

12:01 / 20.11.02

I'd like it to be Brad Pitt or George Clooney or some other (supposed) heartthrob but knowing my luck, I'd get played by Roy 'Chubby' Brown.

Or Robbie Coltrane (who I've been compared to...)

ephemerat

12:16 / 20.11.02

Shane McGowan.

Who cares if he can act? Or stand up?

Or talk?

Bear

12:45 / 20.11.02

Julia Roberts

Rollo Kim, on location

13:01 / 20.11.02

Mmm... Rhona Cameron if she lost loads of weight, or John Hegley after a course of heroin,

rizla mission

Woody Allen in a wig pretending to be a teenager..
