I like this thread, I often think about this, heh.

Who would they get to play you?

My mate reckons Martin Clunes from Men Behaving Badly should play me, when I had longer hair I guess there is a similarity. And I am similar to his character in MBB

What would the title of the movie be?

Welcome to Paradise

What type of movie would it be?

Comedy drama

What would be the theme song?

True Believers by Bouncing Souls

And of course... What would be the most memorable scene?

I don't think there would be a memorable scene, it would probably be much like Swingers in the sense that it would mostly be dialogue. I suppose the scene where I break up with my ex would be big. Or when I finally blow my brains out...

Lemme add a question:

What about the supporting cast? Who would play your friends/partners/family etc?

Who would they get to play you?;

This is a tough one, I can't think of anyone who I actually look like....hmmm I'll edit in later.

What would the title of the movie be?;

The Mark Of Excellence

What type of movie would it be? (comedy, action, adventure, drama, etc);

Comedy (Slapstick Okay, not slapstick)

What would be the theme song?;

Opening - "Flame" by Bell X1 (And it would just be me wandering the streets) The songs got a great cool vibe about it.

Closing (Credits) - "Bittersweet Symphony" by The Verve, then fades into "Heartbeats" by Jose Gonzalez

I could do the whole fucking soundtrack if I wanted to. In fact I might, later.

And of course... What would be the most memorable scene?;

My shameless 3-way sex scene with Keira Knightley and Mischa Barton for absolutely no reason, which lasts 50 minutes of the 90 minute film.

Seriously, this is tough. So many funny stuff has happened in my life. It's thinking of what I'll actually include. My best mate being chatted up by a man and trying to let him down gently whilst me and another mate start yelling homophobic comments across at each other. Including the super-witty "Dude, there's the backdoor. I wonder how many people go through there" and "Thank christ they have the squirty soap. I didn't fancy getting bummed"....and me giggling and saying "I hate fags" and getting us kicked out. It probably wont make the final cut though. I dunno, so much funny shit has happened, I struggle to remember it all.

Supporting Cast;

One of my mates looks like Matt Damon, hmmm, I'll probably just throw a bunch of fit women in there, even if they look nothing like who they're playing. The guy who was Finch on American Pie would be my brother, looks near identical. My dad would be Necro Butcher ()...can't think of anymore...Oh another mate looks like Daniel Powter....bah I dunno.

If someone wrote a movie about your life:

Who would they get to play you?

Depends. Julian Sands has recently struck me as an amazing actor, from The L Word, to Stargate, to 24, he's massive. Someone more my age, looking at people born around my birthday, Ryan DeBoar is approximately exactly one year my junior, and doesn't look too good. He could probably match my level of ugliness with a few shovels to the face and a head shaving. He's also Canadian, and relatively unknown, so he'd work cheap. And let's face it, my life story, cheap production values.

What would the title of the movie be?

I'd more then likely name it after a Radiohead song, since I suck at naming things. There There might be it.

What type of movie would it be? (comedy, action, adventure, drama, etc)

Drama, I imagine. Though some people wouldn't get it, and would find it comedy.

What would be the theme song?

The title of the film would more then likely dictate that.

And of course... What would be the most memorable scene?

My death, of course. My final death, anyway. Or maybe someone I know dies, and that's more tragic, as I've never truly lived, and thus the definiton of my own life story is the death of somebody else. That actually sounds like a far more plausible end.

What about the supporting cast? Who would play your friends/partners/family etc?

My father would be Christopher Walken. Spare no expense. As for my friends, indy wrestlers, as most of my friends have tried, and failed for the most part, at becoming indy wrestlers. They'd get a kick out of seeing themselves as successful wrestlers.

I actually often do write about myself, but never as myself, raw myself. My life story would be mostly inside jokes and references and situations most people wouldn't really understand, and while it might be a mediocre art house movie, there is no reason to even suggest it ever be that.

And of course... What would be the most memorable scene? The orange.

[Skummy]

As the film I'm currently working on is semi-autobiographical in a lot of ways, I've considered this a lot lately, to be honest.

Who would they get to play you?

As much as I want to be an egotistical bastard and say Johnny Depp, I'm not going to. Noel Fielding (Vince Noir from The Mighty Boosh) would probably work, a lot of people tell me I look like him, and we have similar mannerisms. If his voice had a bit more of a Northern twang I'd probably sound like him, too.

What would the title of the movie be?

I don't know, really. Something pretentious as fuck. "Broken Heart Surgery", although that's a bit too emo. Maybe just "Boy".

What type of movie would it be? (comedy, action, adventure, drama, etc)

It would be an arthouse film, but with moments of surrealist comedy. Probably mostly in black and white.

What would be the theme song?

"Teenage Riot" by Sonic Youth, perhaps.

And of course... What would be the most memorable scene?

I don't know, really. Possibly some kind of nervous breakdown, filmed in a way that makes it uncomfortable to watch. It's difficult to say. If I were to make a film about my life, it would be primarily dialogue and character-based, not really built around memorable scenes...and besides, I can't objectively state what parts of my life would be memorable to an observer.

What about the supporting cast? Who would play your friends/partners/family etc?

Even though there's absolutely no similarity there, I'd want Bill Murray to play my Dad.

Danny Dyer. I have absolutely loved him in pretty much everything I've seen him in. Even though he looks fuck all like me.

What would the title of the movie be?

Far From Nowhere

What type of movie would it be?

Comedy. Sort of like one of those shitty teen comedies but with some serious stuff thrown in.

What would be the theme song?

Opening Credits: "Kick In The Mouth" - Reuben

End Credits: "Tiny Vessels" - Death Cab For Cutie

Who would play your friends and family?

The main character from Pure Pwnage to play my best friend, as he would bust a fucking nut at that. Other than him, don't have a clue.

And of course... What would be the most memorable scene?

The scene where I'm staying at this girl's house and her dad warns me in an arse over tit fashion. The official line he gives is "If you want to go to the toilet in the middle of the night, don't worry about turning a light on because if I wake up and hear someone creeping around the house, I'll wonder what's going on" which really means "Keep your hands to yourself or I'll kill you". Wake up in the middle of the night, wearing only a t-shirt and a pair of boxer shorts and stagger in a sleepy haze to the toilet without turning any lights on. Drop my boxers and sit on the toilet in the act of shitting. A few second later, her dad kicks the door open and is standing with a shotgun and screams "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU UP TO!?". Scramble out of the toilet whilst trying frantically to pull my boxers up and then scramble out the house into the freezing cold night without picking up any of my stuff. Add in "Keep It To Yourself" by Reuben playing on the background whilst running out of the house.

Part of that really happened, part if it didn't. Not hard to guess which bit didn't. The thought of that bit came from telling one of my friend's what happened and just sort of running with it. It's pretty stupid but that was the sort of stuff we came up with when we were younger.

And of course... What would be the most memorable scene? The mass battle between the Year 10s and the Year 11s that culminates into a war against the administration. Throw in the innocent wrestling between two friends that escalate into a deep rooted personal battle.
