Poster lookalikes.

Do you have a mental image of what a poster may look like?
If you already know what they look like do they remind you of anyone?

Light hearted thread so be nice.

HT has always reminded me of TV presenter Debbie Flint.



To me Eddie has a look of singer Cerys Mathews.



I always imagine Major to look like this....

And....Quill reminds me of actor Glen Ford.

I remember many, many years ago, there was a programme called Pebble Mill at One, while I was at home when the kids were young.   A presenter, Donny McCloud did an interview with Glen Ford.  He saw one of his paintings on the wall, and Glen Ford told him that it was of a place he saw in dreams, where he believed he had lived in a previous life.  In the picture was an oddly shaped stone with an inscription on it.   Ford said that in the dream the stone was the headstone of his wife.   McCloud told him that he walked the Highlands a lot and was almost sure he recognised the place.   McCloud went back to Scotland, found the place and sure enough, there was the oddly shaped stone with a unreadable worn out inscription on it.  He took a photograph.  Later he went back to Ford and showed it to him.  Glen Ford passed out - literally.

That's an awful pic of Cerys Mathews. I can't stand her music either lol
Can't I look like Marylin Monroe?

Course you can.
She is also my idea of a beautiful woman.

She was young once... She looks a bit like Cerys Mathews.

Victor has to be



Brian Blessed, where i also imagine him to have the same booming voice


Tommy is




Kevin from Harry Enfield, simply becuase he disagrees with everything, no offense lol


Quill I would place him based on him wishing he was intelligent by sounding intelliegnt as.



Richard Burtan


Eddie is and can only be



Mrs Jumbo, because she is a caring mom first and foremost and not trying to claim she is huge like an Elephant, but based on on her nurture skills.





Sassy is of course




No explanation required as she is Cruella Deville


4ever is


Tutti  (Estelle Getty) As the mother of  Sylvester Stallone in the film "Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot"


Cass is of course




Mary Poppins



Zack is of course.




Hong Kong Phooey



Irn Bru is of course



The extra with the red shield in the film Braveheart



Korben is of course




Spock


Nicko is



Rambo


Major is of course




Windsor Davies from it aint half hot mum


Syl I picture as




Elizabeth Taylor on looks alone for some reason


Ben is




The Invisable Man, which I am sure he will see the funny and ironic side of my choice


Just for starters

You might have known dick-head couldn't manage that lol

Sense of humour failure from sassy.

It is fun and you are being a sour grapes lol

So I'm an elephant. I can live with that.

eddie wrote:So I'm an elephant. I can live with that.

To look like?

No

Based on their nurture capabilities?

Yes

I don't think it's only based on how we think someone  may look in real life...it's as much as their online personality that forms our opinions.....and we come up with a mental pic.

Sassy....I picture as Denise Robertson, like in this pic.
Strong views but obviously a very caring soul, people will share their problems with Sassy....and a good sense of humour too.



4Ever....Dorothy Parker crossed with Catherine Tates gran.....more on persona than looks I hasten to add.
Acidic tongue and a bit of a one off.

Yes

I like elephants actually. And I do flap my ears to keep cool.

Thanks Didge btw....I came out of that one OK.

Now I am having to think of you more carefully cos my views have changed over the last few weeks.
The mental image I had of you originally bares no resemblance to the image I have of you now.

I will be back.

I love that image, it shows your nurturing side has over shadowed your actual photo on the forum....which says a lot about the way Didge perceives you.

It's funny because I asked my son if Cerys Mathews looked like me or Emma Thomson and he said not at all. He couldn't see it.
He reckons I look like shrek.
He also thought that was hilarious

I would say Eddie, that your son has inherited your silly sense of humour, that is something to be proud of.

Syl, you are welcome as well, for some reason she reminds me of you in some of her roles

Sons eh?
Mine once said I reminded him of Eric Estrada....an actor that used to play a cop in the TV series 'Chips'.

I don't look like her but I am flattered anyone would think I do.
When I swapped some ISA's over last year the woman in the Halifax building society said I reminder her of Liz Taylor.....it wasn't you in disguise was it Didge??

Which translates as saying your son is jealous of how you are like me, when my friends nickname me as Solartron

You absorb lots of the sun and look very well tanned.

He is just jealous of that golden glow

I wish I had thought of that at the time....I just felt I must look rather butch when he said that.

Now Didge, definitely Michael Berryman:



Eddie:  Peggy Lee



Ben:   Óscar Jaenada



LF - Sam Neill as Merlin



Syl - Sorry Syl, but can only see you as your own picture.



Have to think about the others.

I don't really know much about LF...I read he is is a Druid so I would have to agree with your Merlin.

I have an image of Tommy as.....

Rags wont play she hates these games...
But I picture her as a Maggie Smith lookalike.



All pecan hair and a bit uptight....with a soft centre if you dig deep enough.

What the hell is pecan hair lol - nuts?

No it's the colour...

Gotcha lol

I see Veya like this, don't know who he is except he's Australian, but he's just how I see Veya, passionate and a mix of races

So you se Veya as forum eye candy for the ladies then?

This is how I see Ben, purely for the fact he is in control and he is Australian.

I saw a great one that could have been Irn...a Scot sat next to the queen...but it was a bit rude so I wont post it.

My imagination is spent for the night....night Sassy. x

Do you mean Veya, he's only in his 30s.   Ben is a Texan lol

Lovely, she was quite the formidable woman and didn't follow the pack - nor allow the Hollywood moguls to shove her around! 

HT = Dame Edna

I think of Lord Foul as that


Nicko


Ben but he also has a cowboy hat



Major

If you have posted a pic then i think of you as that

yeah I think similar (mixed with grumpy cat     )

Syl wrote:And....Quill reminds me of actor Glen Ford.

Haha...I am flattered.  Glen Ford is a handsome guy.

But I have to decline that one.  My picture is on every one of my posts...upper left corner.



Its a professional photo taken by Barry Evans of Berkeley.  Yep, that's me.  A few years ago...but me nonetheless.

I tend to think of Wolfie as Chris Hemsworth...

I think Lurker looks like Johnny Cash

And Zack like Waleed Aly

And tommy like one on the left

I always imagine you look like the Crocodile Dundee Guy veya!

I know the avi pic is you Quill....I saw you mention that once.
I think the pic of you resembles Glen Ford.......surprised no one has ever told you you resemble him before.
