Total Casting Recall

Hoosiers

Who are the Hoosiers? 

Well, if you listen to this podcast, you’re gonna find out who the Hoosiers were.

The Hoosiers were a basketball team, but they were more than a team. 

They were actually a group/team of actors in a cast in this movie. 

They’re acting as a team and we all know that teamwork makes the dream work.

And that DreamWorks is a movie studio.

This is a sports movie. 

Thi...

In a world (this world),

 in which we live,

there was nothing in the beginning. 

Not even the word, beginning.

And then there was...

This week's Episode of Total Casting Recall.

Episode 44...

With zany madcap recasting suggestions by Chris B. and Lee B. for a movie called Zoolander starring Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson and Will Ferrell. (no relation)

Directed by Ben Stiller (co-incidentally directed by the same Ben Still...

Heat... because there is no other way.

Got it?

I'm kidding. I was coming in 'hot' so to speak.

So, in the late 1600's when the Earth was discovered and then settled- moviemaking began.  It was tedious at first and many lost their lives and later some lost their lunch. 

But... it was on one of those tumultuous evenings after several fatal pratfalls and lethal plot devices, casting was discovered.

Soon re-casting became the...

It's that time again.

That time of year.

When we all can stop and think, smell the flowers or just plain stop.

Don't you feel better?

Good.

Before the internet craze; there was a movie that inspired cybercrime before today's world of fear based and impulse buying of crapola at the mere tap of a smart device button..

And no, that movie was not UHF. 

It was Sneakers. This movie stars Robert Redford, Dan Akyroyd, Sidney Potier, ...

We've all been there.

Right? 

I don't need to explain myself.

But I will.

Confidentially... speaking.

Which brings us to UFOs or UPAs or INTERGALACTIC VAGABONDS  as I personally refer to them.

When I have the time.

To refer to them.

Who are they?

Where do they come from?

Are they friend or foe? 

Who knows? I don't. But what I do know is that....

This week- LEEC AND CRRIS investigate LA Confidential and officially dis...

Space the Final Frontier... where no one can hear you scream but they can hear you giggle. And who are they?

And... if you are into giggling or even chuckling, you've come to the right place.

You've just entered the Total Casting Recall zone.

We are all made of star stuff... or star shit, if you like.

So... you'd better get used to it. 

In this cosmic episode, Lee,Chris,Lee and Chris, recast the Steven Spielberg classic Close ...

Never have two simple words ever been used together to make a movie that is made up of both one word and another combined together to make a movie title.

For those keen cinema aficionados, right away you realized that it probably HAS been done before...

Congratulations!

When in the course of events, especially the special events. Like limited special offers or while supplies last; types of events.

I left out human events. Or other species as well. No one should be left out of this. Even non-living things like rocks or clouds. Or leaves. If they're dead, of course and like, bones of dead people. Because I've already included bones still inside people that are alive because that counts as living. Ri...

Are you lonely?

Do you find yourself unwelcome at restaurants?

Have you ever been chased out of one by strange people with swords?

And were some of those weapons fashioned out of biodegradable plastic?

Hello fearless listeners,

Q: Is your heaven blue?

A: If not, this film should do the trick.

Hi. I'm one of the Top Officials here at Total Casting Recall.

There's two of us. Both named Top. Although my, what I like to call, doppelgänger goes by the handle Topper. Last name is the same for me and him: Officials. Weird. 

Q: Do you ever find yourself watching a movie and wondering how to re-cast it, in your mind?

A: If you do. Yo...

There comes a time when a new season must burst forth....

Here at TOTAL CASTING RECALL, Now is not the time. But we said, NO! IT IS ABOUT TIME.

If you have enjoyed reading these or just enjoy reading, then by all means, please continue to do so. 

This week, we've switched it up. This one is a drama, it's a sci-fi, and it's not supposed to be a comedy. 

It's Escape From New York directed by John Carpenter.

It stars: Kurt '...

Chris and Lee your (and our) co-hosts serve up another hot one!

SO, I MARRIED AN AXE MURDERER... but it's not what you're thinking.

Or it could be. I don't know, okay?!

Fine... So what you are probably thinking is- that we get to see some Axes get what's coming to them, which means some axes get killed.

Nope.

Nor is this a movie about some kick-ass guitar solos. That get married.

Nope.  

Spoiler alert: it's a movie starring M...

It's Chris. It's Lee. It's a Podcast.

It's TOTAL CASTING RECALL It's indescribable. It's incorrigible. It's irreverent. It's in- your- face-crazy. There are literally trillions of podcasts about re-casting. That includes not just Earth or the Milky Way or even the Local Group. Of course! There are extra- terrestrial podcasts. They've been doing this for millions of years. Because those guys are smart!!

Hey Podcast Episode Description Readers of Earth!

Are ready for this? You can now not only read these descriptions but you can also listen to the companion episode as well!

And if you do, you might be pleased to hear what you're listening to.

I know what you're thinking: it sounds like a great novel or weapon BUT... 

It's not.

Hoo-ray!! It's our 30th Episode!! Thank you for listening to the first 29 episodes! And to those who haven't, this episode will make absolutely no sense whatsoever.

Sorry!

JUST KIDDING. None of the episodes make any sense. Even if you play them backwards... except the one episode that will tell you to run out and buy Led Zeppelin albums. Specifically, the box sets. NOW that that is out of the way.  On with the verbiage...

Do Y...

You've heard of the Hudson Brothers, the Smith Brothers, the Smothers Brothers, and the Gargantuans. Or maybe there's a few of you left that haven't heard of them. But consider yourself very lucky, because now you have.

Congratulations!

What is Total Casting Recall? A lot of people are asking! And it just so happens that this is our monumental, deluxe, special EPISODE 28! And when I say a lot of people are asking, I mean, probably about 5 or 6. (This total was counted from memories in my personal encounters in my life). 

And speaking of Life, why not enjoy yours? It's more fun than complaining and doom scrolling. With or without an actual scroll. I don't real...

EXCEPT, IT'S NOT!
