DF: the movie!!!

[ballroomboilergirl]

This is a game my friends and I always used to play...we hypothesize who would play us if someone made a movie about our lives, what kind of movie it would be, etc. So I thought it would be fun to imagine what a movie about DF would be like!

In my humble opinion, I don't think the movie could be anything other than a musical with spectacular dance numbers...each member with their own number...which numbers would each of you perform, or what kind of number would you love to see another poster perform?

Here's my cast list so far...feel free to fill in anyone I've left off!

pygmalion - Vivica Fox
borikensalsero - Cris Judd
NeoDevin - Leonardo DiCaprio or Shane West
SDSalsaGuy - ?
Vince A - ?
d nice - Lawrence Fishburne
SwinginBoo -
Swing Kitten -
dancersdreamland - Cynthia Nixon (from Sex in the City)
scorpionguy-
Sagitta-
DanceMentor-
Porfirio Landeros - Antonio Banderas
Dancing Mommy -
Spitfire -
Larinda McRaven - Naomi Watts
Madam Samba -
peachexploration - Natalie Cole
suek -
lindyjihad - Robert Iler (son from The Sopranos)
youngsta - Mekhi Pfeiffer

Oh this is awesome BBG! Me, as Natalie Cole. :lol: :lol: How did you know I sang Jazz? Wow! I'm working on a computer right now but I will post mine later. :) Very fun topic!

[DancingMommy]

Gloria Estefan would have to play me.... or maybe J Lo... But you'd have to make her "more white".... ;) Hmmmmmm

Who could seriously play me..... Aw heck... I'll just have to play myself, LOL!

[NeoDevin]

How did I get stuck with DiCaprio? And who is Shane West?

[SwinginBoo]

This is a really imaginative idea. I'll have to think about who would play me. Maybe Swing Kitten could help me with this one. :wink:

As for her...I'll have to do some thinking on that as well.

[pygmalion]

Vivica A. Fox? I'll take it. :wink: 8)

lindyjihad - Robert Iler (son from The Sopranos)

..creepy if you ax me. i get Edward Scissorhands, a LOT. i dont know how to feel about that.

[Swing Kitten]

Wow... there is a notable resemblance! EXCELLENT!

I don't know of anyone in hollywood cute enough to play SwinginBoo... I'll have to think about it.

aww shucks :oops:

[youngsta]

Wow, Mekhi Pfeiffer isn't a bad choice :D I'd probably pick Will Smith. I actually know him and our personalities are similar. As far as the dance number, I'm thinking a salsa club in the old downtown part of a major city. Kind of looks like a back alley establishment on the outside, but once you get inside it's like WHOA! Sizzling music, everyone is in their best club gear, and multiple DF salseros getting equal time on the floor! 8)

OK, while I'm personally down with youngsta's filming idea, if it is a full on DF movie then we need some other locations too . . . not everyone in the cast is a salsero or salsera after all! :shock: :shock: :shock:

How about adapting the DF to dance versions of "Waiting to Exhale", "28 Days" or Dance with Me? :D :D :D

I thought we were just describing our specific number in the film. I don't expect the entire movie to be salsa...unless that's what the others want :lol: :wink:

[peachexploration]

How about Tina Turner playing "me" at 63 doing salsa. My ex-husband playing Ike who was left behind because he couldn't get the rhythm. ROTFL :D :D I could only pray to look that good when I turn 63. :D :wink: Okay, I was being silly but do I get an "A" for imagination? :wink:

Anyway, in BBG's movie, since Natilie Cole is playing me, I will be singing "This Will Be" while Vivica A. Fox (Pygmalion) and Lawrence Fishburne(DNice) do Swing at Mekhi Pfeiffer's (youngsta's) Salsa club. He does Swing Night on Wednsday's. :D

[MadamSamba]

Hmm...don't know who could play me? Me, maybe? I've got one of those hotch-potch faces that people are always responding to with things like, "do I know you?" or "have we met before?"...:) lol...great idea though...who would direct it? Maybe I'll stay in the background and take care of the catering...

[danceslave]

I'd have to say Janet J. minus the boob ring of course!

[dancersdreamland]

dancersdreamland - Cynthia Nixon (from Sex in the City)

Wow...when I first started reading the post I thought for sure my name would

A.) Be missing from the list (I haven't been around in quite some time) and...
B.) Not have a name listed next to it.

THANKS!!!

Now, I have to ask...who is Cynthia Nixon? (I don't have cable.) If she's from Sex in the City, she MUST be cool! How come you picked her?

I'll take it as a compliment, so THANK YOU!
