There’s more to life than sitting around in the sun in your underwear playing the clarinet.

I’ve been Meme with my own game. It’s like someone stepped into my shoes for a few weeks, and came up with my one of my favourite things and then sent it back to my in a nice neat little package.

So the Lottie meme’d me. I don’t often get this so i’m terrifically impressed by it.

The Rules!

  1. List the people who would play you, and the people in your life.
  2. Give credit to the person who tagged you, that’s Lottie mentioned above.
  3. Link your answers to the original blog, that’s here (http://www.iRamble.co.uk)!
  4. Tag four new people to participate.

So first of all, i’ve played this game extensively. It’s not just about who’d play you, but why and the different personalities of people, and how you imagine people to be. So over the years i’ve come up with a list, I know a list of possible actors to turn my life into an oscor worthy performance. Someday…

I don’t think i’m one of those people who looks really like someone else, or has the features of someone else, unlike my brother Luke Wilson or my cousin Meryl Streep or my flatmate in a few years Anjelica Huston, or indeed Monica Belucci, lucky girl. Ailers would be played by Audrey Tatou without a doubt.

I think Macauley Culkin would probably play me in my childhood, I wasn’t blonde, but I didn’t have much hair as a baby, so I figure he’d do, or maybe Abigail Breslin but only in Little Miss Sunshine:I liked a bit of singing, and dancing, but didn’t have the polish of those other child stars:

Nowadays I’m still not really one of those immediate you look exactly like someone else people. I like to think I have some of that 50s film star ness about me but I used to think Janeane Garofalo was as close to me as you’d get.

I don’t know who i’m really like:

Maybe It’s more Sarah Silverman. But the moral of the story is I can’t really decide, I keep changing my mind on who’d play who, and why. I also think John Cusack would make a fair stab at me like Angela Lansbury.

I think Benicio Del Toro would make a decent Raptureponies too.

As i’ve said my bro would be played by a Wilson, my dad would have both James Cromwell and John McEnroe for very different reasons.

My Friend R would be played by Penelope Cruz, she’s got that Spanish vibe about her.

When I used to play this before I always said Rick would be played by Peter Saarsgard, I’m telling you, look at some pictures!

I’m afraid one of my life philosophies is ‘live fast, die young’ so I can’t nominate a more mature lady, or indeed gentleman to play me in my autumn years. I think for my movie, it’ll just have to start at the end, and move backwards.

The only important things when my life becomes remembered forever on celluloid are: It will have to contain a montage, or a a few. Everyone loves a montage.

There will have to be some kind of makeover moment.

John Williams would score it.

It’ll be in black and white and colour.

Anyone ever see that movie Tron? Part of it will be like that.

Musical sections a la the French, because I heard sections today, and I hope to be French when I grow up.

Now my fellow members of the academy, you’re next:

Monscooch,

Derek,

Naomi,

and Lexi.

Bet ye’re delighted.

Note: I couldn’t get the pictures to come out the exact way I wanted them. So sorry about that.

  1. Ahh- you were such a cute kid. I’ll bet you were a real little trouble maker.

    I still think Rick looks like John Simm.

  2. I’m trying to convince my bro to get in on the re-create the you-as-a-kid-picture, not sure if it’s gonna work.

    I still have no idea who John Simm is… someone to do with that time traveller lad in the phone box?
    :D

  3. Oh- shun the non-believer!!! It’s the Master from Dr. Who.

  4. [...] These guys have done it already: Darren, Lottie, RP. [...]

  5. Awesome! Can’t wait to see this movie.

  6. “that time traveller lad in the phone box?”

    *sigh*

    Christ. Flashback to being drunkenly compared to John SImm….

    Even though you’ve said it to me many times before I had no idea who Peter Sarsgarrrrrrrredderered was or what he looked like prior to clicking that link.

    Have you considered getting glasses?

    And he’s going out with Maggie Gyllenhal. Like, seriously.

    ;-)

  7. I am so bad at these things!

    BTW Sarah Silverman is hawt!

  8. Darren: Am working on it, it’s hard to figure out the psychadelic mode on the video camera!

    Rick: Glasses eh? John Simm eh?

    I’ll show ya*! I’m sure it wasn’t a one off assumption, when I picked Maggie Gyllenhaal. D’oh.
    *I really will (non threatening by the way, that sounds a bit threatening… I guess everything’s wrapped up in a nice neat little package) but yeah I actually will, just as soon as I get round to it.

    Derek: Sarah Silverman hawt… that translate as you fancy me? I’m glad you’ve finally admitted it. However i’m involved in a love affair with leg fight man.

  9. I found your site on technorati and read a few of your other posts. Keep up the good work. I just added your RSS feed to my Google News Reader. Looking forward to reading more from you down the road!
