First off, thanks for all the votes in the Christmas contest. Secondly, thank you to Saint John Talbot for the suggestion for this contest. The new contest will be "Actors Playing Actors". Examples would be Michael J Fox in The Hard Way, half the cast of Tropic Thunder, or anyone who has played John Wilkes Booth in a movie about Abraham Lincoln. Actors playing themselves in cameos do not count. With the holidays coming up, entries will be accepted for a week, the poll will go up next Thursday-ish. Entries must conform to board rules, up to 200x200 and 140kb if animated (that's still the limit, right?). Good luck! For my entry, I'm going with Robert Downey, Jr playing Kirk Lazarus playing Sergeant Osiris in Tropic Thunder
Well, it's your contest, so you may set this limit. The forum limit (and the one used in most contests of late) is 1 Mb. Here are Steve Martin, Chevy Chase and Martin Short as Lucky Day, Dusty Bottoms and Ned Nederlander, respectively, also known as the Three Amigos:
Jean-Claude Van Damme as Jean-Claude Van Damme actor a.k.a. the superspy known only as Johnson in Amazon's "Jean-Claude Van Johnson."
- Tim Allen as Jason Nesmith, Sigourney Weaver as Gwen DeMarco, and Alan Rickman as Alexander Dane, Galaxy Quest
William Shatner as Ward Fowler playing Detective Lucerne in Columbo, "Fade in to Murder." One my favorites!
Stargate SG1 "Wormhole X-treme" Raymond 'Ray' Gunne: I'm Christian Bocher. I'm portraying the character of Raymond Gunne, who portrays the character of Dr. Levant which is based on the character, uh, Daniel Jackson, portrayed by the actor Michael Shanks, originally portrayed by the actor James Spader in the feature film.
I haven't watched Fargo, so I don't know how Campbell played the role, but I suppose I'll allow it, since he was an actor before he was the president.
Quick recap! od0_ital auntiehill Kai "the spy" Aragorn Avro Arrow scotpens Orac Starkers J.T.B. - and - Showdown Nice entries, everyone. The poll goes up tomorrow-ish, so still time to enter for anyone else who wants to play along.
