OFF TOPIC

Re-cast a favorite movie, with a whole new "theme." As an example, a new (mostly) musical crew for one of my personal favorites... "The Wizard of Oz."

Dorothy Gale: Debbie Harry
The Scarecrow: Alice Cooper
The Tin Woodsman: David Bowie
The Cowardly Lion: Tim Curry
Glinda the Good: Bette Midler
The Wicked Witch of the West: Joan Jett
The Wicked Witch of the East: Paris Hilton
Uncle Henry: Craig Ferguson
Auntie Em: Craig Ferguson

And, as the Wizard/Professor Marvel: Jay Leno

Directed by Pete Townshend

Yeah. I'd pay to see that.

It's been a few years, and I can't remember the title, but it's something to do with hope and change coming to Washington. It's definitely horror. I'd like to recast it

I'd recast Nixon with an actor who had an American accent rather than a British one.

  For me anyhow. :rolleyes:
  
  I got most of the characters - except Hulk Hogan as Ashley. I missed the joke in that one.

He was just the most opposite person I could think of for the cultured, refined, and yet a little bit wimpy, Ashley.
