That will be a great movie to watch ;P

Give me some pop corn.

Not sure who'd play me. I don't think anyone is in the right size or craziness either :Shouting: :p

If I was female, Sandra Bullock could play me quite well as sometimes I am like she was in the movie The Net. When I first saw The Net I thought, my kind of woman! :D


Not seen an Actor like me as yet though.

Whoever it was would have to be a computer NUT and a guitarist/musician.

Ok, so here's my script pitch:

A madman who uses windows has planted a virtual bomb onto Mac-Forums because he feels threatened by Apple's growing popularity. He doesn't want the word to get out, so he goes after THE GREATEST source for Mac information on the web. And unless we keep the number of members online above 50, the forum will be lost forever! A renegade member who lives on the edge, yours truly (I know, I have a big ego), has to get the word out to all of the other members and keep the people online. But there's a catch. Each member has to stay active too. You can't just sign on and walk away, you have to be posting. In the end, we find the madman and give him a virus because he uses windows.

I'd be played by Keanu Reeves. If you look at my avatar, you can see the obvious resemblance.

Really? I'd thought my part would go to Chris Farley...Zombified Chris Farley anyways...

It would be about a few Mac fanatics trying to kill/be killed by a few mac haters with a bunch of semi-biased mac users walking around with big ***'s over their heads and several non biased users wondering what exactly is going on and why the heck are these people acting so darn irrational.

I'd be played by Brent Spiner (Data from Star Trek: The Next Generation). Given my wife often calls me Mr. Data, he wouldn't have to learn much new.

He'd still have to use "phone book dialogue" in everyday conversation, would be utterly clueless as to how to interact with humans beyond some fixed scripts he's learned, and would constantly strive to be more human with only marginal success. He *would* understand humor a little, but would spend much time in personal internal debate over the logical purpose of his existence. Mostly emotions wouldn't be relevant.

(As an aside, the inline photo is from a CD Brent Spiner did in the early 90s. It is most excellent. ^_^ Unlike his predecessors (Bill Shatner and Leonard Nimoy), he can sing very well.)

Well, since I'm guessing that schweb won't cast himself in this thread, who do you all think should play schweb?
