Here's the T 'n' S finally hitting the blogosphere. It's hypothetical filming day at Wheresmyplan. Light, camera, ThinkAndShare!
Your life is made into a movie; who plays you and why?
I guess it would be Simon Pegg, the title character in Shaun of the Dead, because he bears some resemblence to me, but only if he can take care of that speech impediment (you know... being British). I'm kidding of course--depending on the region, the British accent sounds much more intelligent and worldly or funny than the flat American accent. If that's what Pegg needs to give a sense of my intelligence and humor, so be it.
Your life is made into an after-school special; what's the moral at the end?
I have no idea, but I liked the question, following up on the first one. I suppose the moral is to watch what you say--it was once said of the band Queen that they were "prone to alarming lapses of taste," and I've had occasions where that could be applied to me when I was younger. You know: months ago.
Back to your life as a movie: what's the genre (comedy, drama, teen flick, Bali-wood musical, etc)?
My life, made into a movie, surpasses An Inconvenient Truth as the highest-grossing PowerPoint Presentation of all time.
My live as a movie. Who plays me? Katharine Hepburn, I think, as she was
when she played the no-nonsense, intelligent, independent lady opposite
Spencer Tracey, New England accent and all.
After school special, the moral? It ain't over till it's over. There are
new horizons to challenge, new things to learn, unusual places to visit.
Genre? Science Fiction, of course.
Who plays me in a movie and why:
Alex Borstein would have to play me--diminutive and round--but only if she
plays her MAD TV character who sings musicals when she's nervous.
Who plays me?-X used to think Uma Thurman looked like me if we are going by
looks, though I don't see it.
I'd like Sandra Bullock to play me. She's got the right coloring, and
she's feisty. It would be about a high school screw up who becomes a
passionate teacher of at-risk kids. It would be a drama with lots of comic
relief.
