 [META] Actresses playing multiple roles -- Part Deux
checking Beth's Myspace photos

As you may or may not know,

I'm pretty damn convinced that this movie will have multiple storylines/endings/ POVs...and one of the things I keep noticing amidst the Slusho 7's photos is that there seems to be a pretty good deal of the following going on:

They're not the same actors/actresses in ALL of the personal photos in those Myspace pages. There truly seems to be multiple actors/actresses *seeming* to play the same role...

For instance, very few of the images of Jamie Lascano seem to be of the same actress (whatever her name); some of the Lil photos don't even look like Jessica Lucas; some of the Hawk photos don't look like Mike Vogel; the Lena photos look like a different chick in each one (and the "switching my face with Nicholas Cage" seems to be a deliberate clue to that effect)...

...and on Beth's page --- there are two pics showing Beth out clubbing with three other chicks. Now considering that Beth hasn't made mention of ANY other friends outside of the Slusho 7, and considering the amount of time her comments on Myspace have pointed to her going out clubbing with Lil, Lena and Jamie, it would be reasonable to assume that these party-girl foursome pics would be of that selfsame group.

Except they look nothing like Lil, Jamie, and/or Lena. Hell, if this *is* supposed to represent the Party Girls, Lil isn't even black in those pics.

So....it's a stretch, but I do believe those foursome pics are supposed to represent Beth, Lil, Jamie and Lena out clubbing. And if I'm right, this movie *definitely* features multiple actors playing the same roles --- i.e., alternate storylines.

Confirming that this movie is *not* an actioner, but instead a Twilight Zone headtrip from pre-beginning to post-end.

Fascinating opinion. COULD be... could be....


I take a rather different approach (as usual).
It appears to me as though the actors have contributed personal pictures of their own for the MySpace accounts. I think we are seeing the ACTORS out of "costume", so that their hair and style is different. If you do a photo search on yahoo and google for Mike Vogel (for example) you'll see that rarely do any two pictures of him look the same. Look at these 14 pictures of him.

Good theory...as good as any out there right now and I'm willing to buy into it.

There could also be a more straightforward explanation. Perhaps the actors in the film were for whatever reason (money, contracts, personal choice) unable to unavailable to have their image used in the back-story on the MS accounts so people with supposedly similar looks and features are used in their place.

Maybe not the best example, but reminds me of the Indiana Jones ride at Disneyland. The animatronic Indiana Jones is actually not an exact image of Harrison Ford and the voice is, of course, different as Ford did not want to lend his likeness and voice to the ride.

Edit: 50th post...why the hell am I still a boot?

Yeah, I'm inclined to believe in the theory that actors were asked to provide RealWorld photos to mix in with the "in-game" photos -- in which case, the four chicks in Beth's photos could be real-world friends of Odette Yustman, not "Beth McIntyre."

But I'm just sayin' that there's a whole lotta ground left to dig on the Myspace photos -- including in-game comments from other Slusho 7 members about some of those photos -- that we haven't even begun to explore.

I completely disagree. In everyone's myspaces, they look like the same people to me. I'd bet 100 dollars. Like others said, in real life photos people often look different; hell, if you guys overanalyzed my myspace you'd probably think it was different people. Honestly, in my eyes, it's uncomprehendable that they could be different people. Like "Jamie Lascano is the Gossip Girl girl" it's just.... soooo not true.

It's ok Smile I can tell by your apologee that you weren't trying to be mean. My straight friends and I rag on each other all the time. I can take playful teasing, ya buncha silly breeders Razz

In fact, I just want to say a sincere thanks to everyone here for not being nasty to me about it. You guys have really been cool, and that means a lot Smile It makes me wonder how great the world would be if everyone were like that.


But seriously... LOOK at that guy! If I was straight he'd have done *turned me gay! WOW!





*fine print... no one can turn gay.. it was a joke

The world would not be great if we were the way we are. Please view the thread below for proof that the world would quite litereally suck.

And sexual orientation(sp) has nothing to do with what we are doing here. Its actually good tht we have people of different backgrounds and views. Having various views helps us. And I much prefer this picture...

I am heterosexual.

I'm not quite sure I'm getting what you're saying, BUT...

what I meant was that the world would be a great place if everyone didn't
hate other people for being something different.

I didn't mean to take us off topic. Just wanted to say thanks before.

LOL. Considering that you haven't liked me since I got here I would have thought you'd have said it felt like I was here forever. Razz But yeah, I just started here like a week and a half ago, but even though most of the folks here dislike me I do really like this game and talking about it with everyone here. It's my current hobby. Cool
