Writing Prompt: If Your Life was a Movie, Who Would Play You and Your Friends, and Why?

My friend, Tara Meacham, had the idea for us to start our own writing prompt blog, so other people with writer's block can visit our page, and find things to write about. We have not yet started our blog, but I thought I might test some waters here. This is my seventh writing prompt idea, and response.

Writing prompt: If your life was a movie, who would play you and your friends, and why?

Response:

As for who would play me, I would have to say probably Drew Barrymore. A lot of people have said that I look like her, though I don't see it at all. She's also kind of tomboyish and girly at the same time, and seems pretty intelligent.

Justin Bartha would have to play my husband, Ben. From what I've seen him in, he seems geeky, but also very cute, and sometimes witty.

I think Selma Blair would play my friend, Kim. From the stuff I've seen her in, I would say she seems to have a more cynical and dark personality, much like my friend.

Her husband, Jeremy, would be played by Seth Green. He just seems to have the sense of humor and some of the mannerisms are there.

If anyone could pull off an impressive version of my friend, Phil, it would be Jack Black. He might kill me for saying that, if he reads this, but it is so true. Jack Black is a chubby, but hilarious and lovebale guy, just like my friend, Phil.

As for my friend, Jerid, it would be a bit of a stretch, but I think he could pull it off-- I would have to say Christian Siriano from Project Runway. He would have to calm down a little and tame his hair, but I think he could do a convincing Jerid.

Someone smart would have to play my friend, Tara. I've had Jewel Staite as a friend on Myspace, and from what I've seen there, and on her shows and movies, she would do well as Tara.

Honestly, I had to think a bit about who could play my friend, Jen. For the role, Jen would have to be Hispanic, because I think that America Fererra would be the best bet for the role.

I'm not sure why, but I really, for some reason, think that Lindsay Lohan would be a good fit for the role of my friend, Dollie... minus the whole lesbian thing. Her personality seems somewhat akin to hers.
