My cat. Everyone would be played by cats. Untrained cats, just put them together in relevant places and roll camera. It's art now.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I was thinking specific cats (a la Unsinkable Sam or Stationmaster Tama), but these newcomers need breakout roles too!

Nicolas Cage.

Doesn't matter that he isn't even close to being a match, but the movie would most certainly be entertaining.

Ryan Gosling, Jake Gyllenhaal, and Timothee Chalamet. Not as one person blended together, but them having a threesome. Directed by Denis Villeneuve. Score by Vangelis.

That's me.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

I can imagine you so well

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

Me of course. I mean I already got famous for being me so clearly I would be a good fit for the role.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Jack Black is the only real choice. In his messy beard phase.

[–] RamblingPanda 7 points 1 year ago

I had a hard time thinking of someone even remotely matching my elaborate style and high class. This is exactly it. Jack Black, messy beard, clothing that looks like he dressed in a small, completely dark closet.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

I'm a forgettable nobody, so, Michael Cera.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Bojack.

Horseman, obviously.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

get in line

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Seth Rogan but he's a craft beer snob instead of a pot head.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Dunno probably that guy in the Vicar of Dibley that went "Mo no no no yes"

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Haaa! I love it ^^

The guy

Probably Keanu Reaves. We went to the same schools growing up and have similar ethnicity. I don't actually remember him, though I must've passed him in the hall? He's a few years my senior.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.

No similarity, but it'd be funny watching the director try to fit The Rock into a computer programming role; and also because - since it's a movie - people would think that's how I look.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Question: on what occasion in your life did you hold a helicopter with bare hands? And why?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

It's my biography, not Dwayne's! The heaviest thing he'll hold in the biography will be the absurdly large Calvin & Hobbes Compendium.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Matt Damon.

Similar size, shape, looks and both from the Boston area.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I describe myself as looking like what happens when you skip character creation. I’m super average-looking and would be tough to pick from a crowd.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Either Jack Black or Daniel Day-Lewis, depending on who directs/who's casting.

Edit: I'm not saying I look like Daniel Day-Lewis, I'm saying I like to think my life would require an actor of his caliber and complexity. Probably Rob Schneider would suffice, in reality.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

In a similar vein, not Rob Schneider the actor, but that racist stereotype Mexican he plays in a bunch of movies. I would find it hilarious in a "I'm the dude playing the dude disguised as another dude" way.

Wait.

RDJ playing Rob Schneider playing that character.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Daniel Day Lewis?! Now, I know you're being disingenuous. Please use no fewer than 25 words between the; painter, journeyman cobbler, chef, bon vivant, quite possibly the greatest actor of his generation and Rob "screaming internally for validation" Schneider.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Apparently I look a lot like a certain, well known actor. So much so, that several people independently of each other told me that.

[–] RamblingPanda 4 points 1 year ago

Rocco Siffredi?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

A cross between Matt Jones and Daniel Franzese

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Alan Ritchson, of course

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

That guy from The Commitments.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Hugh Grant, I've been told too many times. Same looks, same sheepish attitude

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Dave Bautista. In a long wig. Haha

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Philip Seymour Hoffman. He lost the game a while back, but it could fit. Who else m idk. Who else is chubby, reasonable intelligent and has a drug problem??

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Bradley Cooper. People always tell me I look like Bradley fuckin Cooper

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I used to get the same thing with Edward Norton.
