1. If your life were a movie, what would the title be? How about "Crazy"? :)

2. What songs would be on the soundtrack? Van Morrison's "Brown Eyed Girl" would have to make an appearance, as would "Crazy" by BNL. "Porcelain" by Moby, "Halcyon and On and On" by Orbital, "Master & Servant" by Depeche Mode, "How Soon is Now" by the Smiths, "Save Yourself" by Stabbing Westward, "That’s What I Get" by NIN, "Scorpio Rising" by 10000 Maniacs, and "Enjoy the Silence" by Depeche Mode.

3. Would it be a live-action film or animated? Why? Live action, otherwise it defeats the purpose of coming up with a cast.

4. Casting: who would play you, members of your family, friends, etc?
Me - Thora Birch maybe, Alyson Hannigan, or Alyssa Milano, but shes far too hot; Sarah - Natasha Lyonne; Kim - Maddie Corman; Karen - Jenna Elfman; my mom - Linda Hamilton; my dad - Steven Spielberg; Ed - Ethan Suplee; Jay - Kevin Smith; Shawn - the ghost of John Candy.

5. Describe the movie preview/trailer. Well, the movie would have to be a drama, since I'm not at all funny. Although if it's not necessarily my life now, but in the future, it could be a romantic comedy, focusing on my hopeless relationships with gay men and assholes, until I finally met someone who was stable *and* would put up with me. So the trailer could be a few quick cuts of the horrible-then-but-amusing-now ends of several failures, then a fade into happiness later :) That might never happen, but hey, it's nice to dream.

I want to hear other peoples' answers to this question about themselves, so please post comments :)

Oh but you know cartoons have to have voices, hence you would need to come up with a cast. My life is so incredibly routine and uninteresting that no one would make a movie of it, but I have been on TV before so I have had my 15 minutes....at least 30 seconds worth of it. Somebody owes me at least 14 minutes and 30 seconds more.

Your answers are good! I thought they were hard this week. Thora Birch is a great choice, she's a talented actress.

Rob: I didn't get an invitation. Where did you send it?!? When and where??!

1. "LOL What a Dumb Fag"

2. "Loser" Beck, "King of Simpleton" XTC, "Dead" TMBG

3. Animated because that'd be the only way to really capture my ineptitude.

4. Me - Conan O'Brien, everybody else who knows

5. The trailer would be like the trailer for 'Adaptation' only emphasizing even more what a pathetic dweeb i am.
