Recasting of a Older/Modern

[jabbercash]

If you were to remake a older film and turn it into a modern film, or make a modern film at an earlier time, who would you cast?

Goodfellas

Leonardo DiCaprio
-Henry Hill

Christian Bale
-Jimmy Conway
(if you make him look older he'd be perfect)

Jonah Hill
-Tommy Devito
(after seeing him in The Wolf of Wall Street I have a feeling he could really pull off that role)


Jennifer Lawrence
-Karen Hill
(she might be a little bit young for the role but I think it could work)


Vincent D'Onofrio
-Paulie Cicero


What about you guys?

But we'd also have to see him in pseudo-sex scenes with whoever they get for the Sharon Stone part.

That was agonizing enough with Pesci

Still, you've got a point - that is a tempting trade.

They would probably give it to Jennifer Lawrence. Doesn't she get every role? And besides, who wouldn't pay good money to see Jennifer Lawrence

[Show spoiler] go down on

Jonah Hill? Try keeping your popcorn down during that!

My point exactly. Jennifer Lawrence. We need a break from her.

DiCaprio…I can buy that. Kind of sick of him, but OK. D'Onofrio I think is perfect at this point (fat) in his life. Jonah Hill and Jennifer Lawrence? YOU TAKE THAT BACK!

Please read Post #3 from "Doctor Jack". I was wondering why your thoughts looked so darn familiar.

Actually, maybe it's not that crazy. A few dialogue tweaks here and there...

Tommy: You mean, let me understand this cause, ya know maybe it's me, I'm a little ****ed up maybe, but I'm funny how, I mean funny like I'm a clown,...

Henry: Well, yeah, pretty much.

Tommy:I amuse you? I make you laugh,...

Henry: Well, not laugh, exactly. It's more a dry humor. A droll sort of thing, I guess.

Tommy: I'm here to ****in' amuse you? What do you mean funny, funny how? How am I funny?

Henry: Okay, well, if you must know then fine, you're actually not that funny. I was just being polite. Seth Rogan? Now he's a funny guy...
