Boards.ie - The Movie

Also Starring LeVar Burton · 02-09-2007 02:12AM #1

If they were to make a movie about boards.ie, what actor would you have play you?
Also what sort of things could happen in a boards.ie movie?

Also Starring LeVar Burton · 02-09-2007 02:16AM

I'd want Dylan Moran to play me. He's a good few years older than me, but personality wise, he'd be the best man for the job.

estebancambias · 02-09-2007 02:16AM

That would be just stupid. You obviously read about Myspace the movie, and took this little idea on board, pardon the pun. Why would an actor be needed to sit behind a computer screen for endless hours, just typing routlinely? The point of the movie should be to explore individuals on boards, not your little happy Hollywood bull****.

Mr.Nice Guy · 02-09-2007 02:17AM

Pighead would be played by Jade Goody. I'd like to be played by Tom Selleck.

The plot would probably involve hunting down scumbags.

Karl Hungus · 02-09-2007 02:18AM

There's only one person who could possibly play me...

Peter Stormare

estebancambias · 02-09-2007 02:19AM

No, the plot should be much more complex. A terrorist attack organised on boards.ie in retaliation of an opressive American goverment.

I hate myspace, I had no idea, they had myspace - the movie. I came up with the idea, about the same time me and one of the guys I work with, came up with an idea for Tetris: The Movie. Everyone said, there was no way you could come up with a storyline for Tetris, but they were wrong. So maybe boards.ie could be twisted into a movie plotline.

estebancambias · 02-09-2007 02:21AM

Man that was my **** humour.

KilbarrackBlows · 02-09-2007 02:23AM

Sean pen ...cause im constantly told i look like sean pen

or ehmmm that guy picard from star trek cause he is cool
or maybe a hand puppet.

Obviously some sort of llama-human hybrid. Which has a laser attached to its head.

You're very angry, Esteben.

Alan Rickman would play me.

Timans · 02-09-2007 02:24AM

Damn, we need actors with working fingers?

I was hoping for The H man to play me..

bronte · 02-09-2007 02:28AM

Monroe to play me...That would be an interesting movie

And we'd have to have a soundtrack..spider-boards..spider-boards..does whatever a spider-boards does....

ps..I'm an actor ...with working fingers

Also Starring LeVar Burton · 02-09-2007 02:29AM

It could be a comedy. Where we see some of the users in their homes chatting online, thinking they're great friends, and then they start bumping into each other randomly in public, but have no idea that they're actually boardsies and then they come online and start bitching about each other because when they met up in public, they took instant dislikings to one another. I can see it working.

bronte · 02-09-2007 02:31AM

There'd have to be some kind of love triangle in there somewhere...hmmm....who to cast???

Timans · 02-09-2007 02:31AM

Nah, THIS is the Soundtrack.

"..a floppy diskette"

it could be the sad yet touching story where an adopted child finally meets her birth parents over bebo, she adds them to msn only to be blocked by BOTH mother and father. She turns to drugs/drink and selling herself on adverts.

Naturally, it's 16's.

estebancambias · 02-09-2007 02:31AM

Captain Negative are you actually taking this seriously?

estebancambias · 02-09-2007 02:32AM

Oh it would also have to include some dickhead saying 'yore ma'.

Michael J Fox is way too much of a midget to play me. The guy's 5'4" ffs!

No, it's Peter Stormare or bust. Give him a beard and long hair, and he's perfect: http://l.yimg.com/img.tv.yahoo.com/tv/us/img/site/49/66/0000034966_20061021043509.jpg

Ooh, I love the "who would play you in a movie" question!

Who's fiery, dark-haired, pale and curvy (as in shapely, not fat)?

Ruu_Old · 02-09-2007 02:33AM

Ah there was a decent Boards.ie-The Movie thread done a while back but I can't find it, some good photoshop work.

No idea who would play mise.

Danny DeVito?

estebancambias · 02-09-2007 02:35AM

Who would play the Atheists? Those guys are something else. ''We are open minded, blah blah blah blah.

Is it just me or is there something much more open minded about believing in a life after death.

I was thinking more a Greek tragedy... COURSE IT WOULD BE A COMEDY!!!

02-09-2007 02:36AM

Who plays my part? I'd audition for the part to play myself. I already have plenty of experience playing (with?) myself.;)

I can see potential in it, but no, I'm a student, I don't take anything seriously, but on the other hand, I'd do it for the laugh...

estebancambias · 02-09-2007 02:37AM

Go for it.

Bingo!!! Although he's not pale...

Yeah I like that Peter Stormare guy. His character in Minority Report - creepeh!

Remarkably off-topic but as long as you're using a completely unrelated thread to rant about your personal convictions, I'll respond: Is it just me or is there something rather ridiculous about the notion of a supreme being that supposedly looks after us, yet young people die of cancer every day, there are wars and monstrous dictatorships all over the world, there is horrific poverty, there are war criminals roaming free instead of being behind bars... etc.

It could have been an action/blockbuster or melodrama. Comedy was only the obvious choice, if you don't think outside the box. Comedy is a good one to go for though.
