Let's say that Hollywood decided to make a film about SL, and they decided to do it as a live action film.

Who would play you? Your friends? Prominent SLers?

List 'em here.

This thread is kind of a spinoff from this thread about James Spader's resemblance to Philip, so I'll start with that:

Philip Rosedale/Philip Linden . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . James Spader

Who else do you see?

I was thinking of Johnny Depp for the role of Philip Linden, but James Spader is a good choice...

So, uh... how do we go about this topic without naming names because if you *really* wanted to insult someone you could say I think the part of ____ _____ should be played by Paris Hilton, or Bruce Vallanch or Bozo the Clown. Ya' know what I mean.

I suppose Molly Ringwald would have to play the part of Jennyfur. She has the odd misfortune of looking like me... well to all the random people I have met over the past 15 years that insist that I look like Molly Ringwald. I wonder if she gets people coming up to her saying " Hey you look like this girl I know, Jennyfur..."

Ulma Thermon for sword wielding Jeska

Definately James Spader for Phillip

Keith Carradine for behind the scenes evil Chip Midnight

Jackie Chan for wimsical Taco

Kate Winslet for our brooding Willow

Meryl Streep for Coco

Jack Nicholson for Leck (Here's Johnny - Yeah I can see it)

Sorry Psyra - for some reason I have always envisioned you more as the exotic Keanu Reeves from Matrix type, than the Jim Carrey type. :p

Rosanna Arquette for Torley :D

Angelina Jolie for Amy

Sean Connery for Selador

Antonio Banderas for Cristiano Midnight

It would be a VERY strange movie, but that would be my cast. :D

I would like to be played by either:

Paul Giamatti
or
Phillip Seymour Hoffman


However, I think the real question is what the hell would the plot of an SL movie be? If ever there was a plotless "game"...

<sigh> ok fine

Not a problem

The dashing Cristiano Midnight can be played by Carlos J. Alazraqui who is much more handsome than Antonio Banderas anyhow. :p

Mad scientist Phillip Linden builds a strange and magical amusement park. Hawkers draw passers by into the complex (think Dusk til Dawn). Mysteriously half the men who enter become women for unexplained reasons. Inside the people begin to wander from club to club, all of them decorated the same and blaring Top40 pop music (insert scene along the lines of the "pleasure club" in Logan's Run). The people start to become desparate to escape and discover that by sitting in certain chairs and slumpping over that they can get little token that may allow them to leave the park. However, none of them are able to get to the exit since they are all seduced by the need to spend their tokens on hairstyling, makovers, undergarments and shoes. Finally one "resident" discovers the truth, escapes and tries to warn the world of the truth....
********SPOILER****************



































the entire park is a a government experiment to test their new panties-based torture techniques. The protagonist is hauled off to a mental institution and the park is incinerated with a tactical nuke strike (think: Return of the Living Dead).

You forgot the second twist ending. Philip, clad in leather corset, panties, garter belt, stockings, and stiletto heels, blasts off for the planet Transsexual in the galaxy of Transylvania just before the nukes hit. All of us standing around with our mouths gaping open have just enough time to think, "So THAT'S what the tee shirt and jeweled codpiece meant," before we are all vaporized in a flash of ten million degree thermonuclear heat.

:p

I think we may have a cult classic midnight movie on our hands.

I've been informed that Godzilla is retired (for now) so my second choice (should've been my first) is Donald Sutherland.

Only a good guy can invoke the ghost of Will Sampson and since you now have Jeska running about the forums stabbing people with needles full of evil drugs - you sir...

must become: Will Sampson

Play him with the greatest of dignity he was a good man.

Crispin Glover can wait until the next movie. People need to be rescued - Nurse Ratched could be lurching in any thread. :eek:

I'd like Jenine Gerafalo to play me. There's no physical resemblance with the av, but I like the 'tude.
