Movie re-makes starring yourself... What would it be?

Post by Pstotto » Sat Nov 13, 2021 9:19 pm

My choice is Easy Rider and I'm Peter Fonda.

Me and Hopper go to Burnley to get the stuff from those folks and I pull their minging sister and decide to stay.

I would be producer of "Twelve Angry Men" a remake featuring the rovers team and Mowbray after their recent misfortunes having being thumped 0-7 at home.

Whenever I open one of your posts I’m in the rabbit hole scene from the Matrix so I suppose that would be the one.

007 is actually the London to Dover National Express bus.

That's where Ian Fleming got the number.

Perhaps if you're an 'average Burnley fan', you'll be nearer to 007.

"James Bond" was the author of "Birds of the West Indies" that Fleming took the name from ... it was on his bookshelf at his home in Jamaica "Goldeneye"

I think I would be perfect as Humphrey Bogart's Rick Blaine in "Casablanca". Plus I know I would be just the right person for Ingrid Bergman to fall in love with.

If you go to Tescos and bang on the windows loudly shouting ELAINE. ELAINE you MIGHT attract the check-out girl's attention but not if you're a graduate.

There's a few I could see as the next Jack Nicholson in the remake of The Shinning no problem.

For me Jodie Foster in The Silence of the Lambs or Marge Simpson in the remake of The Simpsons (might well have been Judy in Wizard of Oz but DA beat me to it, and to be fair I think he would carry it off better than me)
