I don't know why, but I imagined Scot47 more along the lines of Walter Matthau in that movie "Grumpy Old Men"
What about Merryl Sreep as Rhonda Place? She could drag out that old Ozzie accent a la Lindy Chaimberlain in "Evil Angels" again ( I think that's what the movie was called)
Madonna as Jen2003? Where is she by the way? The China Forum is not the same without her.
Ewan MacGregor (a la Trainspotting ) as Freaky Deaky ?
As for the plot ....  |

That was pretty clever. I had to research Bill Paxton, but he seems like a good choice to play me. |

Well, I suppose the great Mr. Connery is the obvious choice to portray scot47 and perhaps the best, but Russell Crowe has a certain fierceness that would work well in the role.
Forget casting for a minute, though -- who's going to direct? Jackson, Spielberg, Lucas, Weir, Coppola, Watters, Almodovar, Eastwood, Burton, the Cohen Brothers...so many choices. I guess it depends on whether this is a comedy, drama, mystery, romance, or farce. Maybe all of the above. |

I'll take his looks, but I think I can act better (not saying much).
In light of certain events, I think only Clint Eastwood could play Johnslat. |

Well, how about Hugh Jackman then, Gordon? He's talented and easy on the eyes. |

Freaky stuff.
You suggested Colin Farrell. Never heard of him. Visited www.imdb.com to find out more.
Find out that I haven't seen a single production he has been in.
Find out that, in a dimly lit room, you might just mistake me for him.
Find out that he and I share the SAME BIRTHDAY for goodness sake!
What are the odds of that happening?
The only other film star that I knew I shared a birthday with was Clint Eastwood. |

Is this going to be a good thing
Or am I going to have to dodge the bullet? (Dare I ask how this sentence will end?)
I'm not the biggest fan of Keanu, but my ego could sure use the boost of being The One right about now.  |
