Some say Johnny Depp is ideal for the role, but I would go with Crispin
Glover, and have him channel his character from "River's Edge."

Eugene Levy is almost the spitting image of Ross, for what that's worth.

Keifer Sutherland or Eminem would do the best job.

No one would do better as Ross than Eugene Levy (check out his performance
in "Serendipity"). Of course, Tom Cruise played "Ross" in a movie already
("Magolia").

When this newsgroup becomes alt.hollywood, that might be relevant.

Sorry to burst your bubble ray, but if a film was ever made about 'seducers'
then I'm willing to bet big-time that you will NOT be featured. Even as a
minor character.

If a movie about a broke middle aged psychotic newsloon who lives with his
mommy and can't get a job is ever made then you might just stand a chance.

Sorry to burst ya bubble, we are working on a movie
(of which I've spoken about for a while now) that
will have a 'grp-ie' character. NO IDEA who will
play it yet, as filming does not start till July.

I've already been paid 5 fig $ for my input...

...alot more then grp-ie earns a year...

E Levy was considered for the role..really. They never
contacted his agent, because we wanted the part to NOT
be funny. More a 'GOLEM' type broken down I/Failure loser.

ALSO...it's very hard to get anyone to play a role that
involves STD(s). grp-ie's herpes plays a part in the plot,
but the grp-ie role is 3rd slot...the 'in joke'...

You're nobody till Ray Gordon fears you..
You're nobody till grp-ie spews you a threat..
Afraid in 'ray-world', in Mommie's abode,
all alone, getting old..
For his threats are all "..inexcusable failures.."
...by a Judge, we are told...

'ray-ality' still is quite insane
You'll never understand it
Cause all of his threats are impotent bluffs !

You're nobody till Ray Gordon fears you..
And Gordon Roy Parker fears everyone......

Yes, I do remember seeing something about that ages ago but I just thought
you were just baiting the newsloon.

Sure you have.

Eugene Levy? As who, the newsloon or Ross Jeffries? If it's Ross then how do
you class him as a failure? He's made a fortune out of the 'seduction
business'.

If you were going to cast Levy as a newsloon then that would seem against
type to me anyway.

You mean the newsloon character will be upstaged by his cold sores?

Yeah, that could work. Possibly like in that Woody Allen film 'Everything
You Ever Wanted To Know About Sex' where he's a sperm waiting to be
ejeculated. You could have some viral microbes arguing as to why there's no
action in the host's life and their not getting a chance to spread.

No, I have no need to 'bait' anyone...

Be flip all ya want, but I'm on the budget payroll
and will be listed as a writer in the credits.

I bought a Les Paul 3-pickup Custom w/Bigsby and a few
other toys with the money..and more arrives after 01/07

Like I care what ANYONE thinks..no offense, but I really do not...

no, as the 'grp-ie' role. I know someone has been chosen
for the 'ross' n 'mystery' roles, but am under contract
NOT to speak of it..but they were not MY choices..

The movie is NOT based on 'seduction'...but it involves it..

>If you were going to cast Levy as a newsloon then that would seem against

It was shut down right away, cause grp-ie is not a comedy...

No, but many actors do NOT want to play a STD role..

BINGO !... Dolls will speak to the role..and be his 'direction'..

ALSO..the 'hellen' role will appear. As a fantasy..as the 'voice'..

<I butchered a great old song......."Bacon Fat.."...>

Now when we went down around..Philly PA.,
Fuz n I were happy, enjoying our stay..
Seen grp-ie in the local drinking place
Filmed a girl throw her drink in his face..
Asked her "hey..why U treat him this way..?"
..she explained...
"I just needed him to...go away.."

She said
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA wop wop
Have mercy, have mercy (wop wop, yeah wop wop)
'And her friends go
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA wop wop
grp-ie cried as they said,
HA HA HA HA HA(wop wop, yeah wop wop)
'An then they all go
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA wop wop
(wop wop, yeah wop wop)

Then he went down to the local court house doors..
Said he wanted to sue..not to be ignored..
Judge said "What is this thing your trying to spew"
..where folks you fail to serve..laugh at you..?
Judge said: Plaintiff has failed to comply..it's a fact
Only thing left to do..is grp-ie laugh..

He said
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA wop wop
Have mercy, have mercy (wop wop, yeah wop wop)
..and the court clerk went..
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA wop wop
grp-ie cried as they said,
HA HA HA HA HA(wop wop, yeah wop wop)
his dollies still go.....
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA wop wop
(wop wop, yeah wop wop)

Do you realise most of the casting for the movie has pretty much been
done already?
