Hi, or should I say, Hello?

Or maybe not.

Let's just get it started

Why 9 to 5?

Why not 9:30 to 3? Or 5 to 9?

The answer is simple.

Because of the song.

And this movie was made a long, long time ago.

The world was a different place then.

There were more dinosaurs

But there were bats. Just like today.

Go figure.

9 to 5 was directed by: Colin Higgins

And is stars: Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, Dolly Parton,Dabney Coleman and Sterling Hayden. This was probably before Josie and the Pussycats or even Charlie's Angels or maybe not. You can find just about anything on the internet or Earth.

The movie in question is about workers who woh't quit their jobs they hate, so they take it out on their boss because they are can-do types and forward thinkers. Who can't bear to look for different jobs.

And that's where all the funny stuff comes from.

So, if you like workplace comedies like The Office, Shrinking or Mister Holland's Face, then you will enjoy this heart warming and heart smart journey into the world of 1980s and what was considered funny back then. You'll get a chuckle at that!

Open a bag of popcorn along with your mind and listen up as the podcast guys, Lee and Chris recast and rehash this time- honored classic podcast episode called:

9 To 5 Ep. 59

You'll Thank me later,

Confucius

(Hey guys! It's my birthday btw, I was born on this day in 551 B.C.!

it's my 2,577th birthday.)

So, floss 'em if ya got 'em!!

Q: How Big is your Lebowski?

A: What's a Lebowski?

A2: Read on and you'll find out.

Maybe...

This week it's more talking by ghostly voices of Lee and Chris plus sound effects about a movie that they recast.

The Big Lebowski

Directed by: Joel Coen

Written by: Ethan Coen

Stars: Jeffrey Bridges, John Goodman, Steven Buscemi, John Tuturro, Phillip Seymour Hoffman, Julianne Moore, Tara Reid and Sam Elliott also some bowling alleys.

Also spotted in this film: Flea and Aimee Mann who appear from the world of music.

This movie is loosely based on Raymond Chandler ideas from them 'ol days of Film Noir. (Look it up.)

This be a comedy whodunit and great all-around non-stop laugh riot.

Chris and Lee really go town and toss a crescent wrench in this one by doing some unnecessary recasting. And who's to stop them. Godzilla? Mothra? or Sasquatch(fake) or The Bigfeets. (possibly)

Actually only a death ray from the gray aliens from Alpha Centauri could possibly stop this podcast but since they cut the podcast deal in White Sands in 1966 all is well.

Sort of...

If you're lost- Congratulations!

So am I.

Enjoy,

Half-Nelson P. Rockin'-Fella (lead guitar)

Congratulations!

Not for just being an avid TOTAL CASTING RECALL listener. But congratulations for just being you!!

Enough with the crap-ola.

Today we have a very serious episode in which with recast Parenthood very seriously.

It's directed by Ronny (Oprah) Howard

It stars: Steven Martin, Jason (Jace) Robards, Tom Hulce, Joaquin (Hooked On)Phoenix, Rick (I shrunk 'em) Moranis, Dianne Wiest, Martha Plimpton, Mary Steenbergen and the usual suspects(other fine actors).

Are you a Parent?

Did you have a Parent?

Have you ever spotted a Parent in the Wild?

I have.

Weird.

Perhaps you are familiar. Well, get ready to be more familiar with this word. Parenthood. It has a nice ring to it, don't it.

Makes you think of people with kids.

Mostly. To some parenthood is a serious job to other parents it's a word that is just that. A word.

Whose side are you on?

Be honest. Or not.

Because we absolutely will not or will ever take this topic or the fine Arte of recasting seriously.

"And you can take that to the bank"

-Robert "Baretta" Blake of Vitello's (1979)

No one ever knew which bank he was referring to.

So enjoy Parenthood and our own dismantling of the movie along with false information and fun!

Sincerely,

Hello!

And thank you again for tuning in! (No actual tuning needed)

Welcome to another episode of TOTAL CASTING RECALL!

By using caps, it doesn't mean I'm angry. It means I'm that EXCITED.

FOR YOU!!

Alright. This week it's Superbad.

I know what you're thinking: Not another superhero movie!?!

Nope. It's just about regular joes in a coming of age extravaganza...

BREAKING NEWS:

Sorry to interrupt this blather about another highly unprofessional TCR episode. But! Godzilla has just escaped and started a jazz combo with Bigfoot.... More details to come...

WE NOW RETURN YOU BACK TO THIS DESCRIPTION ALREADY IN PROGRESS...

...and they nearly get caught!

Whew!

That synopsis had a lot spoilers but you get it.

Directed by: Greg Mottola

Starring: Jonah Hill, Michael Cera, Bill Heder, Seth Rogan, Christopher Mintz-Plasse (also a bass player but not in this film) and Emma Stone

PLUS- other fine talented players who memorized their stuff and got it done, yo!

Let's take a moment to think about the craft of acting...

Done!

Bam!!

This was written down by Seth Rogan and Evan Goldberg

LIFE IS WONDERFUL-

-IS IT NOT?!!

This is your Description writer reminding to:

Keep reaching for the stars but prepared to be burned by the nuclear fission and good luck with not only the vacuum of space but the infinitely coldness in its vast emptiness because you probably won't survive it.

Oh yeah and good luck reaching for a star that's probably thousands of light years away.

Unless it's the sun.

In that case, you'll probably be blinded before reaching it.

Dummy.

So do something else more practical, like. tying your shoes. Unless you have slip-ons. Like I do. Check them out!

Fun!!

THIS TCR EPISODE DESCRIPTION HAS ENDED...

Courage,

There was a Princess.

There was a Bride.

The two went though a portal and fused together thereby creating an entirely new life form.

The Princess Bride.

And that- is called evolution, my friends.

More precisely; evolution by mutation.

This motion picture is about something different that's

not necessarily based on science...

The Princess Bride is directed by Rob Reiner

and written by William Goldman

It stars, Andre the Giant, Mandy Patinkin, Christopher Guest, Wallace Shawn, Cary Elwes, Robin Wright, Billy Crystal and Peter Falk and lots of other actors; mostly from the world of Komedy.

It's about a guy who digs this girl but goes off the be a pirate and then gives that up and decides he wants to stop a royal wedding, He makes friends and others die but we enjoy watching it all go down.

Chris and Lee know a classic and when it needs to be repopulated with new people acting. You decide if its any good.

Peace and Love,

Tha Gate Keeper (at TCR)

The West was tough.

The West was brutal.

The West was just plain Westerly.

You know it and I know it. But for me, only very recently did I know....

'High Plains Drifter', not only an informal greeting to someone in the new frontier. It's also a movie.

All jokes aside, if there are any.

High Plains Drifter was directed by and starred Clint Eastwood and other various actors from the Hollywood scene.

At that time.

Also, it has come to our attention that the recasting abilities of Chris and Lee have come under fire, not only from the listeners of mostly this podcast, but also the hosts have said so. Lee is very much 'shooting from the hip' or 'phoning it in' on more than on occasion. Also, it is possible that he may, at times, not know at all what he's talking about. After a serious inquiry he claims not knowing what's going on is a 'lifestyle choice.'

Chris's response was a chuckle/grumbling sound.

Lee also co-signed this response by singing a fake German lullaby.

Upon reading this, you might have some deep questions about life or why you're even reading this.

This movie is about a drifting cowboy who dislikes whips less than other humans. His main form of communication is shooting folks. And the townsfolk love it.

Happy listening,

Aramis DeFacto-Dummy (Un-manifester of Destiny)

What's new?

Another fine episode of TOTAL CASTING RECALL that's what!

Strange Days be the film!

Directed by: Katheryn Bigelow

Stars that appear in the film with non-stars. You choose has the star power. Word of caution: Choose wisely.

Here's the names:

Ralph Fiennes, Angela Bassett, Juliette Lewis, Tom Sizemore and Vincent D'Onofrio.

One of the writers was the guy who wrote the big, big movie about the big sinking boat.

Strange Days is about an enterprising entrepreneur who lives in a violent America in the future: 1999!?

What?

That don't make no sense.

That's because it was made in 1995, silly!

Prepared to be shocked- because in this future US of the A there's no internet!!

What they got right: Ultra-violence all the way from the common man all the way to the top head honcho POTUS and military joens driving around any old doing shoot em ups all harem scarum!!

So it was up to Chris and Lee to make sense of this gobbledegook and re-cast the heck out of it!

Listen in and decide if you agree or disagree with their recasting choices.

The suspense is killing something or someone.

Probably

Thanks for listening and have a Jim Dandy day!

Love,

Life... is full of lessons.

Lessons are full of life.

Only If they are wielded with an iron fist.

What is love without truth?

If there is no truth, how can you be love?

This week, we (Lee and Chris) recast the hit movie written by Quentin Tarantino called….

True Romance

Where Romance is true.

And truth become romances.

You need to know nothing more.

Directed by Tony Scott

The Stars, not necessarily in order, Brad Pitt, Bronson Pinchot, Michael Rappaport, Christian Slater, Patricia. Arquette, Dennis Hopper and Christopher Walken and many other actors from Hollywood.

It’s the story of two young actors in a movie along with other actors with lots of violence, course language, and side splitting laughs. Plus stunts. With big sounds.

You won’t want to miss this one!

Listen to this one.

Before it listens to you…

Sincerely,

Spook Key-MacToofè
