Bandit - Owen Wilson. Might be tempting to go unconventional with Will Smith

Who cares about the cast - what would Bandit drive?

Always thought MM would make a good bandit.

But it would be great to see Brad Pitt at Bandit and Jen Aniston as Frog.

George Cloony for Reynolds


He'd be great if your aim is to fall asleep 15 minutes in.

Watching Clooney in a movie is like downing 50 mg of Valium with 5 bottles of Grey Goose

I've had some changes of heart....but I did hear that Kutcher is planning on a remake.

It's coming, like it or not.

Let Ashton produce.

I love the serious actor idea.

If I was DDLewis then I would definately go slummin on a project once, a redneck comedy would be perfect.

Jen Aniston as Sally Field.


Sorry... Jen Aniston is too old for that role. She's 40+ years old and is showing it.

Frog is supposed to be some young semi-naive hottie.

Mila Kunis - yes.

That said, I think the only way you make a S&TB remake is take the same type of story line, but make some substantial shifts in the type of actors.

I think the late Bernie Mac could've done some funny stuff with the role of Buford. Chris Rock could've been Junior. Of course, they wouldn't get to have the "you sounded taller on the radio" joke.

Another twist - Sarah Silverman could play the "junior" role... have her as a dumb-witted lesbian. And Frog left her at the alter after realizing she really isn't guy.

More importantly - who would play Fred?
