Here's another "what if" thread.

Have you ever watched a movie or a tv show, and though "If blank played that role, this would be a better flick."? Specifically with our BDH's.

So here's my question. If you were a time traveling casting director, and you had the ability to re-cast a movie with any of our BDH's, which movie would it be, who would it be, and what part?

Personally, I'd re-cast the two leads of ELIZABETHTOWN. Instead of Orlando Bloom and Kirsten Dunst (two very wooden actors with very little range. I'm sorry, but I don't see the appeal in Kirsten Dunst), I'd replace them with our resident cute couple Sean Maher and Jewel Staite. They have far better chemistry together, as evident in FIREFLY/SERENITY that it would have made that flick (admittedly Cameron Crowe's weakest flick) a hell of a lot better.

C'mon, who's a lit-tle fear demon?
GILES: Don't taunt the fear demon.
XANDER: Why? Can he hurt me?
GILES: No, it's just… tacky.

Jewel Staite in "9 1/2 Weeks". Of course Jewel at her present age, not the age she was when that film got made. 'Cause that'd be illegal.

I know this is a little off the specified topic, but I just watched Star Wars Episode III: adventures in bad dialouge writing, and couldn't help thinking "who oh why Lucas, do you not bring in someone to clean up your dialouge". (was that a runon?) So I would cast Joss Whedon in the role of screenwriter for that movie. Just for dialouge, story was fine but please give me a break.

1:40 AM after a fraternity party is not a good time to make a signature.
What you think is gonna happen and what actually does ain't always exactly similar.

Hell yes. I doubt there's a single movie ever been made that wouldn't have been immeasurably improved by having Joss go over the dialogue.

(Well, aside from the ones in which he did, of course.)
