Who will play you on Straight Dope: The Motion Picture

Well, evilbeth already took Kate Winslet, so I’ll go with Reese Witherspoon. There’s no physical resemblence, but she’s roughly the same age, and I just love her.

I would have gone with Janeane Garofolo, but someone already got her, too.

I’ll have to start jumping into these threads more quickly.

::sigh::

I always thought if they ever did a movie of my life (egotistical, I know), that John Cusack would be a good choice. But since he’s been mentioned twice already, I’ll go with Ed Norton (with longer hair).

And since I’m relatively new here on SDMB, it would be in a cameo role.

In terms of resemblance, I have no idea. Other than Helena Bonham-Carter, since everyone says I look like her when my hair is curled. (I STILL don’t see it!) As far as personality goes, I’m probably one of those roles they’d try to shoehorn Christina Ricci into.

Maybe, just maybe, Seth Green.

Just wanted to say hi to all the other Cusacks in the thread!

Actually I don’t look like John much… before I grew the beard I had a frightening resemblance to George Harrison in his early Beatles days.

Aaaaaahhhh, what a lovely thought.

For me - that guy who plays Newman on Seinfeld. Think him in Jurassic Park. Not for physical resemblance reasons, but just because I know I would be that type of sarcastic bit player in the background.

See, I hate these threads, because I can never think of who would play me. Except, well, me.

Any suggestions?

And Balance? NICE sig line. :wink:

And Balance? I made her…
Never mind.

:wink:

A while ago my friends and I were discussing the who-would-play-you-in-a-movie thing.

Their choice for me: David Duchovny. I look kinda like him (except for height–I’m 5’8") and my personality’s somewhat like Fox Mulder’s.

Tim Robbins.

parker posey. just cause i wanna be the wild party girl :stuck_out_tongue:

Well, let’s see: can’t be Angelina Jolie or Parker Posey, 'cause they’re taken already. Hmmm, think I’ll just have to be Claire Danes, because people used to tell me I looked like her, except taller and with large breasts.

Hi, help me?
Tall, blond, round and curvy, talented, smart, sarcastic and sweet. Blissfully ignorant of pop culture!

Bit part so it’s no matter. I’d actually like to play myself, but even if I can’t, can I sleep with Jeff Goldblum?

I’m told I look like either Keanu Reeves from the Bill & Ted days or Ethan Hawke, depends on whether or not I’m clean shaven or have my goatee grown in.

oooer - just got told today -

definite Joshua Jackson …

as in Pacey in Dawson’s Creek and occassionally Charlie in the Mighty Ducks, but not his other roles :slight_smile:

You’d play with yourself?!?

Man this isn’t a MagicalSilverKey thread… :wink:

Satan -

Oh yeah?!?!

Well, it would be a lot more accurate if Leo Decaprio played your part. I mean, that Stern guy is cool! :stuck_out_tongue:

. . . . How the hell do you spell his last name? Dicaprio? Dekaprio? Dickcapeo?

I dunno.

If Leonardo diCaprio was going to be in the movie he would be playing my other housemate - Rift.

Either Leonardo or Wembley fraggle …

my role will be played by James Earl Jones.
