Cast the SDMB movie

as a relative newbie I shouldn’t but…

Cecil-James Earl Jones
Scylla-Sean Connery
Fenris-Tom Hanks
Lynn Bodoni-Sigourney Weaver
Elenfair-Minnie Driver
Esprix-Rupert Everett
Matt_Mcl-Sean Hayes
Iampunha-Leonardo DiCaprio
Eve-Rosalind Russell
Uncle Beer-Tommy Lee Jones
Kricket-Courtney Love
Tequila Mockingbird-Angelina Jole
Coldy-Woody Harrelson
Opalcat-Julia Roberts

Hmmmph. Well, since no one else is going to do it, I’m casting Christopher Lloyd to play me. Somewhere between Doc Brown and the Klingon commander from STIII ought to do the job. :smiley:

Even though I doubt anyone knows who I am, I want to be in the movie. Specifically, played by either Bob Odenkirk from TV’s Mr. Show with Bob and David, Joel Hodgson, or WCW’s Mike Sanders.

Note: I never formally introduced myself. Here’s a quick synopsis:

I am the captain of my school’s academic team (Quick Recall), I enjoy MST3K, wrestling (Hardyz and Dudleyz rule!), auto racing (Go Junior!), and good comedy, sketch or stand-up.

-Brianjedi

Mark Serlin - Michael Richards

Wow! Who’s been ponied up (pun intended) for my part? hardygrrl says Scott Thompson (of “Kids in the Hall” fame). Excellent choice! If you ever get the chance, read his “autobiography” of Buddy Cole, Buddy Babylon. If you read it with Scott doing Buddy in your head, it’s as funny as reading Dame Edna’s My Gorgeous Life the same way - hilarious!

Ah, but the ever-flattering goboy says Cary Elwes - rowr! Quite a cutie (ya know, for a white guy… :wink: ). Many thanks for this kind compliment.

And psychobunny is equally as flattering by suggesting Rupert Everett. Not my type, really, but a hell of an actor and a hell of a guy, so thank you as well.

Really, though - who doesn’t see me portrayed by Sean Hayes a la Jack McFarland from “Will & Grace?” Couldn’t the AtGG threads be considered “Just 'Spree?” :wink:

(And Mercutio, if you suggest who I’m surprised you haven’t already suggested, I’m afraid I’m going to have to tar and feather you at the next LA Dopefest. Don’t test me, child… :wink: )

I have no suggestions to offer myself, alas, but will let you know if I get inspired. :smiley:

Esprix

Who’s this? In my insatiable curiosity, I tried to find him but turned up nothing. :confused:

Mmmm… Craig Sheffer…

(Was in “A River Runs Through It” and here’s the cover of one of my favorites, “Nightbreed.”)

Esprix

I saw that Esprix had posted last and it suddenly came into my mind, before I saw his post.
Esprix as played by his twin (sware on anythign) Conan O’Brien

In the yeeeeeaar two thooouussaaaaaaand!

No,no,no, Gillian has to play me! Unless Hamadryad strongly objects, in which case I’ll sigh and wait for reassignment.

The second unit, filming on location in Australia:

LoadedDog - Paul Hogan
**wooly ** - Yahoo Serious
Primaflora - Judy Davis
AkaMame - Wendy Hughes
Cazzle - Nicole Kidman
Kayeby - Kylie Minogue
Redboss - Sam Neill (please)

and back on the international scene,

Zev Steinhardt - Harvey Weinstein

ageless6 - Jack Lemmon
Redboss

I’m Katie Holmes? Hey, there’s no argument from me.

Totoro, I think you’d be played by Wes Bentley.

I SECOND THAT MOTION!!!

Woody Allen as Cecil Adams.

Buck Henry as Ed Zotti.

And just so nobody says “Anthony Edwards,” I’ll cast myself:
Kurt Warner as AlbertRose.

I’m still trying to come up with someone for handy. So far, I’ve considered Barry White and Jay Mohr.

How about Gregory Peck (twenty-five years younger) as Polycarp?

Wow… the last few days have been shit-on-Farmer time, but no one has even bothered to cast me. I saw that JDT got cast a couple of times… do I have to talk about my foreskin to get some sugar here?

I picture Handy as a non-muscled Arnold Schwarzenneggar… sometimes it’s just hard to understand him.

You can be played by Scooby Doo.

Rut-roe! The cartoon dog, or the troll?

Esprix, I had to pick Scott. Everytime I read your posts that’s who I visualize. And where can I find that book?

Matt_Mcl, Sorry for not spelling the name correctly but you have to admit he’s pretty yummy. Thanks Esprix for the link.:slight_smile:

brianjedi, Joel but only if you’ll sign the Pants song. Another Hardyz fan on the SDMB. :slight_smile:

Hmmm… So either way, you guys think of me as a blonde, huh??? :wink:

Lets see if I can do some casting (I’m so bad at things like this…)

Home of the Braves - Rosie O’Donnell (as the actress, not as the talk show host)
iampunha - Jeremy Piven
Soda - Justina Vail
Arden Ranger - Minnie Driver
lurkernomore - Matt Frewer
I can’t think of any more at the moment, but I’ll try to work on it throughout the day…

I look about as much like Gillian Anderson (and ACT just about as much like Gillian Anderson) as I do like Lou Albano (who is a male 400-pound skaggy-looking wrestler. And dead. Anyone see Cyndi Lauper’s “Girls just wanna have fun?” He played the dad.), so you are more than welcome to let Gillian Anderson be you. I’m sure she’ll consider it escape from a fate worse than “Hollywood Squares.”

So since I bothered to poke my head in, I’ll say that Julia Louis-Dreyful was pretty close…I don’t know WHERE whomever it was got Gina Gershon.

So I guess I’ll make a list.

Esprix is David Spade, damnit.
andygirl is Bette Midler. (pre-Disneyfication, natch)
Odieman is Clark Gable.
Tequila Mockingbird is Angelina Jolie.*
Eutychus55 is Harry Anderson.
manhattan is Wallace Shawn.
Eve is Audra Lindley.
Chef Troy is played by the bastard son of Julia Child and Groucho Marx.
Billdo is Oliver Platt.

Note: Non-inclusion on this list just means I haven’t had my coffee yet.

*Angelina Jolie is the hottest human being in existence with the possible exception of the chick who played Callisto on “Xena.”

That was me. Subsitute Gina Gershon below and you about have it. :slight_smile:
