Hollywood Switch: WTF? Edition
Hollywood Switch May 21st, 2008So there is some one out there that wants to present me with a challenge. His name is Nate. He gave me a couple movies that I really would not touch as I think they are fine the way they are. With that said let’s jump in to the next list for the Hollywood Switch.
Movies: Dr. No, Billy Madison
Actors: Sean Connery, Adam Sandler
What this would look like: No really picture Sean Connery drunk by the pool and then off he goes chasing after penguin he has hallucinated. Better yet the scene in the tent with Chris Farley undressing would be disturbing on a whole new level if it was Connery. Sandler is making his own Bond flick with You don’t mess with the Zohan. But I think this switch could get somebody fired. Wait, I don’t have boss. In that case this switch gets the first Movie Whore Hoolywood Switch of Career Death Award as it would kill both careers quickly.
Movies: Starship Troopers, Dirty Harry
Actors: Michael Ironside, Clint Eastwood
What this would look like: This one is no brainer. Just watch Heartbreak Ridge. Clint Eastwood would be perfect in the Rasczak. He has the demeanor to pull it off. I have always liked Ironside. He has done some questionable flicks but he is a solid actor and I could definitely see him as Dirty Harry.
Movies: The Adventures of Ford Fairlane, Tango and Cash
Actors: Andrew “Dice” Clay, Kurt Russell
What this would like: Russell can do anything and sell it. Don’t believe me watch Big Trouble in Little China again. Am I the only twisted soul that would actually like to see Clay and Stallone in a movie together. I am betting yes. That’s why I am The Movie Whore and you are not. Just picture these two trying to talk to one another. I am betting half way through a scene they pick up on each others old neighborhood accents so bad you can’t understand either one of them. It couldn’t make the flick any better but damn would it make for some great out takes. I can just see Clay slamming on Sly until he he can’t take it anymore and he goes Rocky/Rambo on him.
“Diiiice! I am coming for you Dice.”
Movies: , Star Trek Generations
Actors: William Shatner, Patrick Stewart
WTF?: Oh yeah I went there. Forget about switching movies let’s switch captains and put them in the same movie. I just want to hear the Shatman with an English accent. Not to mention wanting to see what Stewart would do with the gloves off. Basically that’s what Picard is, a watered down more cerebral Kirk.
I think the two of them would have great fun doing it too. Of course the movie would probably turn into one long gag reel not to mention do you know how many Trekkies heads would literally explode over this. I can see the news report now.
This evening when the new Star Trek opened in theaters and several hundred people across the nation started mumbling incoherently throughout the film. No one could really understand what they were saying but it was clear that they were suffering from sort of mental distress. Then inexplicably one by one their head just exploded.
I think it’s about time that quit taking this shit seriously and have some fun with it.
Anyone that knows me knows that I am a huge fan of both of these guys. The Shatman is my list of dream interviews.
That about wraps up this edition of the Hollywood Switch. I will see you kids tomorrow.

Howdy Expert, I fell blessed that I found your post while searching for will there be anymore star trek movies. I agree with you on the subject od Switch: WTF? Edition |. I was just thinking about this matter last Sunday.

JJ Abrams is working on A prequel flick that I as many others have doubts about. How in the blue hell do you cast a young Kirk. Shatner owns that character outright and it will be hard for whomever they get to fill those shoes.
