Recast Untouchable Screen Classics

[dude stannis]

This is me half assing one off the top of my head.

Inception

Cobb - George Clooney
Ariadne - Gemma Arterton
Arthur - Michael Fassbender
Mal - Monica Bellucci
Eames - Idris Elba
Saito - Tadanobu Asano
Robert Fischer - James Franco
Yusuf - Russell Peters
Peter Browning - Don Johnson
Maurice - Roger Moore
Miles - Donald Sutherland

 

[John Locke]

Back to the Future

Andrew Garfield- Marty McFly

Robin Williams- Doc Brown

Emma Watson- Lorraine Baines

Nicholas Hoult- George McFly

Chris Zylka- Biff Tannen

Selena Gomez- Jennifer Parker

 

[I Am Jack's...]

Star Wars

Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Luke Skywalker (I think he could capture the innocence of young Luke and the strength/badassery of Jedi Luke. The one thing that throws me off is his look, especially compared to who would be Leia, but I can't think of any others I like better.)

Liam Cunningham as Obi-Wan Kenobi

Emily Blunt as Princess Leia

Jon Hamm as Han Solo

Martin Freeman as C-3PO

Idris Elba as Lando Calrissian

Charles Dance as Grand Moff Tarkin

Ron Perlman as Darth Vader

Couldn't think of an Emperor

 

[Gianakin_]

Queen Latifah as Jabba the Hutt.

 

[Sawyer]

Queen Latifah as Jabba the Hutt.

Rude!

Harvey Fierstein would be much more appropriate.

 

[dude stannis]

Queen Latifah as Jabba the Hutt.

I'll do you one better;

 

[Gianakin_]

Seagal is obviously Yoda. Obviously.

 

[DawnWarrior]

Jon Hamm as Han Solo

I LIKE IT!!!

 

[Project862006]

Pyscho

Andrew Garfield - Norman Bates

Carey Mulligan - Marion Crane

Inception

Ariadne - Gemma Arterton

Mal - Monica Bellucci
Eames - Idris Elba
Saito - Tadanobu Asano
Robert Fischer - James Franco
Yusuf - Russell Peters
Peter Browning - Don Johnson
Maurice - Roger Moore
Miles - Donald Sutherland

I'm all for open discussion (and the freedom to half-ass, so whatever), but can't we have a cut-off date for this stuff? This movie's like 2 years old, why not keep the same cast and just make a sequel?

 

[dude stannis]

That was born out of desire to see Clooney and Dat Fass in a Nolan film.

I totally disagree about cut off dates though, what if a recent film had bigger potential with different cast?

Basically my point is this thread should allow people the freedom to f*** around with any casting they want.

 

[DawnWarrior]

^Well spoken, sir. Have at it.

 

[dude stannis]

Oh and if anyone thinks it's too early to declare Inception an untouchable screen classic.... I'll disagree with you! Even if you attach jumper cables to my nipples!

In fact attach those cable to my nipples right now! Do it!

 

[JJJ's Ulcer]

The Terminator

T-800: Javier Bardem

Sarah Connor: Anne Hathaway

Kyle Reese: Michael Fassbender

Det. Hal Vukovich: Tommy Lee Jones

Don't be a control freak. Just for that the next film I recast will be even more recent than Inception.

 

[PSYLENTGuardian]

Kinda gonna throw some names on this one.

Ferris Bueller's Day Off

Dave Franco as Ferris Bueller

Josh Peck as Cameron Frye

Lyndsy Fonseca as Sloane Peterson

Noah Emmerich as Ed Rooney

Emma Stone as Jeanie Bueller

and Ben Stein as Ben Stein.

 

[Silvermoth]

Everybody loved Idris Elba in this thread. That's awesome because he is pretty good.

 

[Chrisbarnes182]

Robin Williams probably would have made an excellent Doc Brown.

 

[Eddie Dean]

Liam Cunningham as Obi-Wan Kenobi

I like.

I'll do you one better;

Brilliant! I assume Jabba would commit Seppuku instead of being killed by Leia though.

Pyscho

Andrew Garfield - Norman Bates

Carey Mulligan - Marion Crane

Perfect.

 

[Donnie Darko]

Back to the Future

Andrew Garfield- Marty McFly

Robin Williams- Doc Brown

Emma Watson- Lorraine Baines

Lex Murphy - Elle Fanning

Tim Murphy - Max Charles

Robert Muldoon - Jason Statham

Liam Neeson - Alan Grant

Naomie Harris - Ellie Sartler

Sam Rockwell - Ian Malcolm

Brian Cox - John Hammond

Charlie Day - Dennis Nedry

Ray Stevenson - Robert Muldoon

Lance Reddick - Ray Arnold

 

[MadVillainy]
