"At first I was thinking that there wasn't any way to do this... but then it hit me... there is only one other time and place that The Big Lebowski could be made... the early '70's.... and there was only one director who would have or could have made it... Robert Altman... so here it is.... The Big Lebowski by Robert Altman Donald Sutherland ... The Dude Sterling Hayden ... Walter SobchakWoody Allen ... DonnyJulie Christie ...

Re:A new pack of RESERVOIR DOGS ...

"Second place winner -- iren, who realized Tarantino was pretty much playing a B-movie/noir recasting game when he made Reservoir Dogs in the first place. RESERVOIR DOGS (1992) .... becomes Busted Plans... 1955... Starring: Sterling Hayden as Mr. White Richard Boone as Mr. Orange Lee Marvin as Mr. Blonde Robert Mitchum Nice Guy Eddie Timothy Carey as Mr. Pink Jackie Gleason as Joe Cabot (picture chosen by SkyPilot) Charles Bronson as Mr. Brown (he's way over on the left side of this still) Vincent Price as Mr. Blue Jack Webb as Young Cop .... you figure out why..... (pic from SkyPilot--Webb is perfect for the job, and so are his ears) Orson Wells as K-Billy DJ Ear-chopping tune- Lost Highway by Hank Williams I love the idea of Lee Marvin playing Mr. Blonde. He would reference himself in the movie when his character says to Mr. White, "I bet you're a big Lee Marvin fan." That moment would be as shocking as getting a pot of coffee thrown in you ...

Re:Recasting THE BREAKFAST CLUB ...

"Having had an about face ref The Breakfast Club in the last couple of years when someone suggested that it's a blue print for social change in which the romantic pairing of the Cheerleader and the Jock.... and the Thug and the Arty Girl have simply been switched so now it's the Cheerleader and the Thug and the Jock and the Arty girl.... which of course begs the question what is in it for the nerd? simply he won't get beat up.... as much.... so long as he covers for everyone and completes the groups work.... I think the only true way to recast this film is the Gus Van Sant way, get a couple of non-actors off of youtube or myspace and let them loose.... " [More]

"Rather than remake the film... which a good friend likes to call Lovecraft Funnies..... I think a better option is a tribute episode of a TV show.. and to that end I give you...
