The cast would be absolutely perfect like this.

Oh, wait...

Scanners (2017)

Cameron Vale: Dan Stevens


Kim Obrist: Natalie Portman


Darryl Revok: Michael Fassbender


Dr. Paul Ruth: Ralph Fiennes


Braedon Keller: Jim Cavaziel

Michael Shannon as Revok!

Fassbender would work just as well, in my opinion.

Fassbender is better at cold, calculated evil. Revok needs to be completely unhinged. Shannon is much better at that.

True Romance (2017)


Daniel Radcliff as Clarence Worley


Andrew Garfield as Dick Ritchie


Jennifer Lawrence as Alabama Whitman


James Franco as Drexl Spivey


Mark Ruffalo as Lee Donowitz


Steve Buscemi as Don Vincenzo Coccotti

Eddie Griffin as Big Don

You might be the first person in the history of time who didn't like John Carpenter's remake of The Thing.

This is a goof, right?

I think he means the 2011 one, as there's no women in the Carpenter film. And Winstead was about 27 but looked fabulous .

Didn't even know it had been remade again...sorry.

Well it's a prequel, even though the title's the same, centering on the Norwegian camp seen in the Carpenter film. Well worth seeing.

Hey, another person who liked the 2011 Thing. It's not half bad, IMO.

I've been thinking of recasting the original. Can't seem to get the cast right. Surprisingly hard to find that kind of blue-collar American actors these days. Jim Beaver plays Wilford Brimely, though.

Mary Elizabeth Winstead is actually a pretty good gender bent Kurt Russell analogue. She certainly doesn't get the recognition she deserves.

Chris Pratt as MacReady.

^ thought about it, but it didn't feel quite right. I need someone less polished.

Also thought of Jeremy Renner who is probably the best pick.

It wasn't actually. Well some of it was like having Ryan Gosling as the Gimp and the image of Shaq getting screwed up the ass by John C. Reilly and Zach Galifianakis.


I don't know much unknown actors and this is the best I could come up with. I know it looks pretty bad but I don't think it would be terrible.


I think Ashton Kutcher could potentially be a good Vincent Vega he sort of has the same kind of swagger for the role and he's handsome and decent enough for comedy. Defiantly not as good as John Travolta but he would be decent.


I actually think Shaq has potential to be a good Marcellus Wallace if directed well. He's a big tall black man with a deep voice so why not?
He looks pretty menacing to me.


John Cena does look like the part for Butch Coolidge and he's a decent enough actor.






This cast would be better suited for a spoof version though.


But I think it's decent enough.

From one friend to another:

Paul Thomas Anderson's Pulp Fiction

Joaquin Phoenix as Vincent Vega
Michael K. Williams as Jules Winnfield
Katherine Waterston as Mia Wallace
Josh Brolin as Butch Coolidge
Samuel L. Jackson as Marsellus Wallace
Andy Samberg as Lance
Joanna Neeson as Jody
Paul F. Thompkins as Jimmy

with the ghost of Philip Seymour Hoffman as The Wolf

and Daniel Day-Lewis in maximum method acting overdrive as Captain Koons

Surely Philip Baker Hall as The Wolf?

and...

Quentin Tarantino's Boogie Nights (1997)

Leonardo DiCaprio as Dirk Diggler
Robert Forster as Jack Horner
Pam Grier as Amber Waves
Samuel L. Jackson as Buck Swope
Chris Penn as Reed Rothchild
Bridget Fonda as Rollergirl
Steve Buscemi as "Little" Bill Thompson
Sid Haig as The Colonel James
Harvey Keitel as Floyd Gondolli
Michael Madsen as Todd Parker
and David Carradine as as Rahad Jackson
