I'm laughing at both the idea and the execution. ;)

Your choice of source image made this so so hard...

# Even if you get the angle right you've then got to get the blurriness right...
Archie makes it look easy, but it isn't!

# Idea:
1) Find an old picture frame and put it round your face.
2) Video self from strange angles. Move around a bit, try and make a short loop. Hold the frame steady around your face.
3) Undistort the resulting frames, using the picture frame as a guide (make it look rectangular again, so it's the same in all frames).

I'd do this, but my camera's broken.

# Arf!
Angled text is pretty easy. Rasterise it and free transform it, then distort. Make the edges of the text box match the perspective of the surrounding Monopoly box.

# it's even easier if you
use the existing angles as your guides. Draw your text as normal then rotate along your top guide then use the perspective edit tool to drag to your bottom guide. Reduce size and place to suit.
