She would nail this role, as she always does.

I’ll also never forget that Musk looks like Kathy Bates. She wore it first.

He's just a cheap knockoff

And better!

This is insulting to Kathy Bates

[-] meco03211@lemmy.world 23 points 1 year ago

The hell it is. This is such high praise of her acting abilities. I'd love to see her in this role.

[-] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 28 points 1 year ago

The resemblance is uncanny.

[-] OberonSwanson@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 year ago

Not to mention, Elon has a flatter front than a Ken doll.

[-] EtherWhack@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Only above and below the waist

[-] Custoslibera@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago

Great actress, she would be brilliant.

[-] GreenMario@lemm.ee 16 points 1 year ago

Its an insult to Kathy Bates to compare looks, however she is a very good actor and i would love to see her do it.

I mean, to Twitter employees he's already kind of a SpockBeard version of Jo Bennett from The Office:

Now, you all must be in a tizzy. I can see it on your faces, I mean, what's going on now? I mean, who owns ~~Dunder Mifflin~~ Twitter? Right? I mean, ~~Sabre~~ X? What's that? Some company I've never heard of? Down in ~~Tallahassee~~ Hawthorne? Where is that? Near Mars?

I need you to interpret all news stories like this for me. This is much more palatable.

The sequel to The Social Network had better have Kathy Bates wrestling Jesse Eisenberg in a backyard octagon, smothered in Sweet Baby Rays BBQ sauce.

Hear me out: Kathy Bates as Elon, Kathy Griffin as Zuck.

[-] Apeman42@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Jim Rash watching from the sidelines as Bezos?

[-] ivanafterall@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I desperately want this to be real now. He would be so hilariously perfect.

[-] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.

[-] Techmaster@lemm.ee 9 points 1 year ago

That one scene where she hobbles the Twitter servers...

[-] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Oh yeah, and the next scene where she denies Starlink to Ukraine, hobbling a counter-offensive.

And the one where she challenges Jesse Eisenberg as Zuckerberg to a cage match, but his mother (played by Meryl Streep) intervenes so her precious baby doesn’t lose a sissy-slapping contest in public.

I’ll be so disappointed if this movie isn’t released in a year or so.

e: extra ‘in’

Unfortunately, once the strike is resolved she's got to finish Matlock first. But hey, she's Kathy Bates, she could probably knock off the Elon biopic in a long weekend.

[-] pronked@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

I've started downvoting everything about this turd. He doesn't deserved to be discussed.

Except in this one instance where it would be delicious

[-] Ertebolle@kbin.social 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Wasn't that the hospital?

Uh, you ever see the movie Misery?

Actually, no.

Then this'll all be new to you.

[-] Mr_Blott@feddit.uk 6 points 1 year ago

I'm sorry, but that picture on the left is Hyacinth Bucket, pron. Bouquet

[-] db2@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 year ago

Just standing still looking at her watch she's got too much talent to be able to dumb it down enough to be Elon.

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

The sheer level of rage he would vomit all over Twitter would make this worth it and might actually be one of the few genuinely funny things he would ever participate in.

[-] eldain@feddit.nl 2 points 1 year ago

If only his life was interesting. You could make a movie about his empire and the brilliant people he bought though. Gwynne Shotwell is killing it at spacex.
