With Sam Childers, the gun-toting pastor, being play by Gerard Butler, I was thinking who would play some of your favorite bibliobloggers:
- Robert Cargill – Harrison Ford
- Jeremy Thompson – Dame Edna
Jeremy Thompson - Biblioblogger, The Movie
The 'real' Jeremy Thompson
- Jim West – Keanu Reeves
- Rodney Thomas – Rampage
- Adam S. – Drew Carey
- Mark Stevens - Pee-Wee Herman
Mark Stevens/Pee Wee Herman, dead ringer
- James McGrath – Rick Moranis
- Neil Godfrey – The walking myth. The characters will talk about him, but he is only a figment of history.
Is that Neil or is it just a philosophical creation
- Jason Skipper - Jerry Clower (although this may take some doing)
Jason or Jerry?
And me?
Why, just like they did in Terminator: Salvation, I will be played by a digitized version of Arnold Schwarzenegger. The resemblance is uncanny.
It would be great, too. Lost of action, and the sets 21st century all the way. First, it would start off in the individual homes, in our recliners, as we blog, and then, suddenly, someone does something stupid and the team launches into action,
Jeremy gets killed off in the very first act for no other reason than he doesn’t really belong, not being a good blogger and all. We face an enemy, Blogger, and eventually, through self-sacrifice, we defeat Blogger and the world safe for actual blogging (of course, after the credits begin to roll, Blogger decomposes to reveal Google, which is of course the lead in to the sequel). Since the world is safe for blogging, or so we think, Mark Stevens is killed off as well, because, again, he isn’t much of a blogger.
I would so see that movie. Twice. Then get the DVD. Then I would get the special edition DVD which features 15 more minutes of LOST extra features, and the bloggers who love them.

If the Biblioblogosphere was made into a movie #tcot #christianity #god- http://tinyurl.com/3yf9pep
Always liked Dame Edna. She's great Live!
You likened me to a known pervert?!?! Oh, thats just down right mean!
Ah, love the piccy, I'll be featuring that on my blog later!!
Hahahah! RT @PolycarpTCOJC: If the Biblioblogosphere was made into a movie #tcot #christianity #god- http://tinyurl.com/3yf9pep
No, no… Paul Rubin is the pervert. This is Pee Wee Herman, beloved child actor of stage and screen.
Besides, you compared me to Joel Osteen, a known, well, whatever he is.
I couldn't think of one for you, Stuart…you'll have to be in the sequel.
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwww! Shoot this thang!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That'll be my call for the Joel-minator to come to the rescue.
Clower was awesome!
What's funny is that I have a family that comes from Liberty, MS to one of my churches.
I'm not sure that they live on Route 4 Liberty, MS, though
I loved Route 4 And Liberty as well. I went to school for a year at Amite County High School, and spent some time at Ward's… more time than I should have, especially since I usually skipped school to go there.
Hey, Joel, way to play on Jim's ego so he would link back to your blog
That's any easy way to get back links. Poor Jim didn't even see that one coming …
Wards. Ahhhh! The “Big One”! I once pastored in Purvis, MS and one of the church members owned the Wards in that town…..you can only imagine……………….
Oh, your just jealous of Dame Edna's ability to look better than you in a wig.
I surely can. I dated a girl in high school, actually, with he last name of Purvis who had family from that area (surprise, surprise, surprise).
I'll have to get a piccy of myself to you guys….
Before I post, this MOST classic piccy, did you draw it yourself?
Nope. It has circulated throughout the web, though
With me not cast in it it would go straight to DVD and then the bargain bin.
But who would we get to play you, Madeleine?
