  • Young Guns

    It's insane to look back at Young Guns and see six kids in their 20s playing cowboy in the wild west, and know that some of them have grown up to be  huge, huge Hollywood stars. Emilio Estevez, Charlie Sheen, Kiefer Sutherland, Lou Diamond Phillips, and Dermot Mulroney all got pretty big breaks from starring in 1988's Young Guns. But who would maybe get some of those same big breaks if we cast a re-make of Young Guns today, 32 years later? Tune in to today's episode to find out!

  • Stand By Me

    Arguably the most important coming-of-age film for boys of all time, certainly required viewing to receive one's Man Card, Stand By Me is a classic film about four boys who leave their small town in Oregon to see a dead body. But what would it look like cast with contemporary child actors? Listen in to find out! Also in this episode: Should Dacre Montgomery shave his moustache?

  • Reservoir Dogs

    Arguably the greatest debut film of all time, Quentin Tarantino's  1992 masterpiece Reservoir Dogs began the reputation that Tarantino  would develop over the next three decades for incredibly insightful and  specific casting. It feels nearly impossible to imagine these characters  played by anyone else, as they leap off the screen not as performances  but as whole human beings. Nevertheless, Paul and Jeff are not to be  deterred, never ones to shrink from a challenge. So come and listen  along as they sort through the best and brightest actors working today  for eight men who could be... Reservoir Dogs.

  • Predator

    Seven of the beefiest, sweatiest, gunliest dudes you can possibly imagine are dropped into the jungle to fight a 9-foot Lizard-Crab-Man! We know, we know, it sounds like 70s B-movie schlock, but Predator is one of the greatest action/sci-fi/thrillers of all time, and we're reimagining it with today's fresh, hot-out-of-the-oven Hollywood beefcakes! Listen in to hear our picks for the cast and let us know on twitter whose cast you prefer!

  • Disney's Hercules
