I was thinking this could be entertaining, not sure if its been done here before.

1) Take a movie title

2) Either:
a) Rewrite the plot (staying true to the title) while keeping at least one of the main actors cast
b) Recast the entire movie while not changing the plot/story/lines

"Snakes on a Plane"

Highlight: Greg Blasko, starring as the Co-Pilot, finally blows his lid when he hears politics mentioned indirectly on his forums, demanding the Presidential candidates get off his plane - "I have had it with these motherf**king snakes on this motherf**king plane!"

Just teasin'. We were long overdue for a Marc/C-10 joke.

It's been a while, hasn't it?

How about "Gone With the Wind", recast with Sesame Street. Big Bird as Scarlet (I always thought he was a little efeminate), Cookie Monster as Rhett, and Snuffleupagus as himself. Gone With the Wind could use a Snuffleupagus cameo, don't you think?

Are they allowed to say 'damn'?

"Titanic"

Starring:

  • Leonardo DiCaprio as himself
  • That little old lady from the James Cameron oscar-winning version as that little old lady
  • Killington as itself

Leonardo DiCaprio, ruthless ski area tycoon and Powdr CEO, buys Killington with royalties from his hit film "The Beach", and starts making changes. He shortens the season, closes Pico midweek, sacrifices snowbunnies, bans cars with New Jersey license plates from ski area parking lots, etc.

One day in late March (or was it early February?) Leonardo spots the little old lady making a couple of turns on Superstar and becomes enraged. While screaming "I'm the king of the world" he bans her from K-Mart for the rest of her life for having skied after the official end of Killington's ski season.

Oh, and, uhh, to stay true to the title, the mountain then hits an iceberg and sinks.

"Cannonball Run"

Les Otten (Burt Reynolds) manages to buy Cannon Mountain Ski Area from the State of New Hampshire and decides to build a trail to the Cannoballs.

Highlight: Les Otten makes his plans public, resulting in mass protests from hiking peak baggers from all over New England. Les then loads his plans into a truck (driven by Jerry Reed), hops into his Pontiac, and races for the Mexican border to flee the agree peakbaggers, picking up a confused Sally Field along the way.

I'd go with The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. I'd play the role of Clint Eastwood, and Jessica Alba would play the role of Lee Van Cleef, and the only difference in the story line is I don't shoot the bad at the end, and instead of have torrid love afair.

Ctenidae would play Ugly instead of Eli Wallach. That role would fit him well.

That's disturbing!
