You can portray a character in any movie ever made! Who would it be?

[ohiosmith]

Bobby Peru "Wild At Heart"

[CBGLuthier]

1. Rather Than Think I went with the first thing I thought of

Major T.J. "King" Kong from Dr. Strangelove....

[ohiosmith]

2. Great character!

[Xyzse]

3. Uhhh

If it is just to play as the character.

I'd play Caligula.

If it is to BE the character.

I'd be Superman.

[ohiosmith]

5. Good ones!

[Bertha Venation]

4. Kathy Bates in "Dolores Claiborne"

She played that role perfectly. Should've had an Oscar nomination.

[ohiosmith]

6. Outstanding!

[Glorfindel]

12. Psst...she WON the Oscar for that role!

And well-deserved, too.

[Wounded Bear]

13. Actually, that was for "Misery"

Another of her outstanding roles, though.

[Glorfindel]

18. *blush* I guess I just can't keep my Stephen King stories straight

Thanks a lot!

[jp11]

7. Anakin Skywalker in the prequels I couldn't do any worse.

[ohiosmith]

19. Nope! Guess not!

[NewJeffCT]

8. Conan the Barbarian

since it would be typecasting to put me in the role...



My initial thought was Billy Bob Thornton in that movie where he has sex with Halle Berry... but, I think his character was kind of a racist, if I recall.

I'd probably say the Tobey Maguire role in the first Spider-Man movie (haven't seen the new one yet)

Or, Han Solo in the Star Wars trilogy.

[ohiosmith]

22. Cool!

[turtlerescue1]

9. The Cowardly Lion

[ohiosmith]

29. One of my favs!

[sharp_stick]

10. Those teeth gave me nightmares

when I first saw that movie.

[sharp_stick]

11. Lieutenant Frank Bullitt

in the original Bullitt. Just because who doesn't want to be as cool as Steve McQueen?

[Glorfindel]

14. Gandalf

of course!

15. Capt. Augustus "Gus" McCrae

[HopeHoops]

16. Chauncy Gardener

[PoliticAverse]

26. You like to watch ?... n/t

[HopeHoops]

28. Well, with respect to one specific scene in the movie, yes.

[Populist_Prole]

17. Randal in 'Clerks'

20. I'd love to play Hannibal Lecter.

I find him endlessly fascinating.

[Initech]

21. Bluto!!!

"Kroger - I've given this a lot of thought. From now on your Delta Tau Chi name is Pinto."
"Why Pinto?"
"Why not?"

"Over???? Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!!!"

"See if you can guess what I am now!"

"There were blanks in that gun!"
"Holy shit!!!"
"There *WERE* blanks in that gun!"
"HOLY SHIT!!!"
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"

23. tommy devito

[7wo7rees]

24. Vindictive and Victorious

[Honeycombe8]

25. Auntie Mame, or the mother in Gypsy. Or the daughter in Gypsy.

I'd be terrible at them, but those characters all sing, live exciting lives, and are the kind of people that I am not. I would LOVE to play them, if only for a night. And sing some of those glorious, famous songs! I would be able to die happy.

Or maybe even Velma in "Chicago." A bad woman to the core. But she's vivacious and sings and dances, too!

[Art_from_Ark]

27. Do you want the "I have to say this because it's polite company" answer

or the character I'd *really* like to portray?

[DearHeart]

30. Ripley from Aliens!

[tjwash]

31. Roy Batty

A close second would be Jimmy Conway


Maybe Edward The Longshanks as a close third


What can I say...I love to root for the villains in the movies.
