If you were making a movie, who would you get to play God?

[caty]

I was watching the Biography channel and this question came up. Whether you believe in God or not, what actor or actress would you get?

[SouthoftheBorderPaul]

1. Steven Seagal

...of course, that's typecasting.

See?

[hippiechick]

2. Christopher Walken

... cause God would have a sense of humor like that ...

[Democrats_win]

4. Oh My!

[Democrats_win]

9. Carl Reiner

He's almost as old.

[merwin]

3. Either Jim Carrey or Morgan Freeman :-)

[ghostsofgiants]

43. Well, looks like your work has already been done

[Kathy in Cambridge]

5. Ian McKellen

[Jeanette in FL]

6. Maya Angelou

Love her voice and wisdom

[caty]

10. Yes, she would be a good choice.

A kind face, but could be stern if needed.

[Rainbowreflect]

21. Perfect choice!

[XemaSab]

7. Snoop Dogg

n/t

[SheepyMcSheepster]

8. chris elliot

[AntiCoup2K4]

14. If Chris Elliot was God, that would explain a lot.....

...all those questions people always have about how fucked up the world is, and why God allowed X to happen, etc.

[SheepyMcSheepster]

18. hehe, yes it would

no one takes it to the level of moronity that chris does.
maybe you are on to something?

[meegbear]

11. Woody Allen

[CitrusLib]

12. Glenn Close.

[Missy M]

13. George Clooney , because then I wouldn't mind meeting my....

maker anytime.

[LeftyDarthBrodie]

15. Alanis Morrisette

She already perfected the role and since Fundies hated Dogma it would be fun to make that a running joke in Hollywood. When I run Hollywood I will make that a rule.

[LaurenG]

46. She's all I can think of. nt

[Gildor Inglorion]

16. Dame Judi Dench...

or maybe Meryl Streep. :hi:

The Costanzas' as the Father and Son? Serenity Now indeed!

[readmylips]

19. Oprah W....

oh, I forgot, she's already God.

25. George Burns is the definitive GOD as far as I'm concerned....

wry. very wry.

[Rick Myers]

26. For the VOICE of GOD I would use...

my cousin Mark Dailey, the lead anchor at CITY-TV in Toronto. He's also the VOICE of Much Music, City TV and Bravo in Canada.

[Zen Democrat]

27. Nicholson.

[jackelope72]

28. Lots of people...

I would make God be like that demon in the Denzel Washington movie "Fallen", where He transfers His spirit into another being just by touching them. Really play on the concept that God is Everywhere.

Heavenly bigwig having a conference.

[WindRavenX]

49. Derek Jeter

Because he is.

[rateyes]

51. My wife.
