Spout.com is a great place for movie people to distract themselves while at the office.
Spout has this group called The Recasting Couch.
The idea behind this is that some movie is going to be remade, who would you cast as what? They post a film a week and everyone tries to entertain each other with creative and off the wall ideas.
This week's film is The Princess Bride. I know for a lot of people, recasting this movie is sacrilege. But I did it anyway.
Here is my entry in the contest:
Quentin Tarantino's Princess Bride
Ryan Gosling ... Westley
Uma Thurman ... Buttercup / The Princess Bride
Antonio Banderas ... Inigo Montoya
Warren Beatty ... Prince Humperdinck
Sonny Chiba ... Count Tyrone Rugen
John Travolta ... Vizzini
Danny Trejo ... Fezzik
Jake Lloyd ... The Grandson
Sam Elliott ... The Grandfather / Narrator
Samual L. Jackson ... The Impressive Clergyman
Josh Brolin ... The Albino
Bruce Willis ... Miracle Max
Rose McGowan ... Valerie
Pam Grier ... The Queen
Angie Dickenson ... The Ancient Booer

What? No Tim Roth?
Tim Roth can be the guard at the doors and Harvey Keitel can be the old King.
Now, all I need is something for Steve Buscemi to do.
the best thing you could do with steve is just let him wander around the set randomly adding to what's being filmed. don't give him a script or a part, just let steve be steve.
Blasphemer!
A pox on your house!
Maida, I knew that comment would come eventually. Thank you for handling it.
Any time ;)
I'm sorry. I don't think Antonio Banderas has the comedy chops. Of course, now I'm wasting time trying to think of a proper replacement, and can't. I'd love to see Leonardo DiCaprio try it...
You should watch 'Four Rooms' and only watch the third room. Antonio Banderas is really funny in that little segment. Too bad the performance is wasted on the rest of film.
And he is pretty funny as Puss in Boots in the Shrek movies.
