« ReBoot : My choice would have to be Mr. Hugh Laurie. I think he would best portray my sarcastic humor and somewhat bristly personality.

Second choice would be Kelsey Grammer, because of he seems to already have a knack for playing snobby psychologists.

Mmmm, Bootsie. Since Brad is coming with me, the only other actor that catches my attention is Kelsey. I always thought he was hawt!

If Matthew Maconahey (sp?) shows up, I may have to duck out for a few. And I do have to spend time with Syeko, as we are an item in *real* life....

But Dr. Crane, I would love to sit on your couch for a while.....!!!

I would have to say America Ferrera, just because she is a wonderful actress and person. Here's a before and after photo of what would need to be done to her in order for her to play me. :-D

Hugh Jackman would have been *perfect* if they had just cut him off at the knees. Otherwise, flawless.

ETA: She's older than me by quite a few years, but this is the only actress with whom I share any resemblance:

But if we're going for the same sense of humor, Tina Fey.

I know my husband should be played by Kevin James, though:

Same humor, and they look a bit alike, too. I also have a bit of a thing for chubby funny guys, what can I say?

Oh, c'mon man. That totally wasn't my fault. I had the shot and Iceman didn't want to get his cocky ass out of the way. Then when he finally bailed we cut straight through his jet wash. If I didn't lose both engines, that flat spin would never have happened. And seriously, who the hell inspected that canopy?

I admit to being dangerous when I fly, but when I fly, I'll have you know that my crew and my plane come first.

leehblanc @ 4/15/2008 5:58:02 PM

Okay, chosen mostly because of his ability to convey hilarity with a facial expression OR dialogue, and because of his ability to go off on some intelligent ramble (I'm not conceited, I'm convinced... there's a difference) and finally because neither of us is particularly svelte....

Toss up. Either John Cusack or James Belushi. For age definitely Belushi. Both have a sense of humor and play fun characters but still have a serious side to them.

Let's all play pretend for a moment, shall we?
We'll pretend the interweb as we know it has been reshaped into the global village we all hoped it would be. An Oscar-winning director decides she wants to make a movie dramatizing the pivotal period in which the internet changed forever. She will, of course, be referring to Plime.com's formative years (that would be right now). She wants to spare no expense in casting the movie that will most certainly sweep the Academy off its collective feet.
Since we will all be too busy speaking in front of the UN to bother will petty things like playing ourselves in biopics, we'll need actors to play us on the big screen.

WHO will play YOU in the Plime movie? Why would that actor be a good choice? What will be the most important thing about you that you would want that actor to portray?

EDIT: Also, our intrepid director has found the Infinity Gauntlet and can transcend time and space, so all actors are game at any stage of their life. And they can be animated, because the Infinity Gauntlet is just THAT COOL.
