Ok, casting for a mythical Discworld movie has been done to death, but here’s a new twist.

The director and producer have decided that this will be an all dopers cast.

So, who do you think YOU would be cast as in a Discworld movie.

I’d like to say I’d be Vimes, but I’d probably end up as Colon or possibly one of the wizards.

I could also do the voice of a CGI Librarian. OOK!

I wanna be Buddy from Soul Music, but I’ll probably be cast as a dwarf for reasons of stature.

Anyone of the wizards would be great, but with my luck I would be cast as a Nothingfjord caracter.

I’d probably end up as Rincewind. Sometimes I even feel like Rincewind… ☹

Well, seeing my username, how about Angua?

Or, a while ago, after the first BrumDope, **garius** cast me as the child of Ridcully and Granny Weatherwax. Can’t find the thread cause the search function seems buggered, but it was rather amusing. 🙂

I’d like to be Ridcully. I take a similar approch to managing things - ignore any pieces of paper that are left on your desk, if they’re really important, someone will come and see you about them. I just need to convince my boss to let me replace my desk with a snooker table.

I could also be Ponder Stibbons. I often feel like my explanations for things go in one ear and out the other when I’m talking to my co-workers.
