Isn't it about time for another pool movie? Here are my picks for actors to star:

1) Ben Stiller as Earl Strickland (Think Dodgeball)
2) Matt Damon as Corey Deuel
3) Edward Norton as Mika Immonen
4) Dan Akroyd as Jeremy Jones
5) Lou Diamond Philips as Django Bustamante
6) Efren Reyes as himself
7) Keith Mcready as himself
8) Ernie Reyes Jr.. as Alex Pagulayan
9) That guy from the Sopranos as Tony Drago
10) Some bald guy to play Ralf Souquet

The storyline would be like Poolhall Junkies only, they go on to compete in the World Pool Championships and not just in some dingy poolhall for money. Comments?
 
What, no women! Assuming you'll come around, let's note that Lucy Liu could be a dead ringer for Jeanette Lee.
 
I think Edward Norton would play Johnny Archer much better than Mika Immonen.

BTW: That'd be my dream movie with my dream actor.. Edward Norton is by far the best young actor of his time.

Edward Norton could pull off a Johnny Archer, as well as a psycho Earl. But how about another Atlanta boy playing the role of the Atlanta Boy....Jeff Foxworthy. "You know you're a redneck when......":D

If women are going to be in it, I still have to go with Clay Aiken as Monica Webb. Brooke Burns as Ewa...And for the ultra vocal wise-cracking Vivian Villareal, a very slimmed down wise cracking Rosie O'Donnell.

This is shaping up as a very high budget film.

How about Nick Nolte as Buddy Hall?

They'll be slashing the budget in other areas by using only house cues, cheapo ball sets from ebay, old wooly type cloth, and hollowed out chalk discarded from various tournaments.

Nick Nolte might be a candidate for Buddy, it depends on what diet and beverage plan he's on that month. If he was still around, Orson Wells might have been better.

DM, you had me rolling in the aisles with your post.

I've always thought Meg Ryan would make a great Allison.

I'll buy that, though I'll note that Meg looks a little more like Gerda Hofstatter than Allison Fisher.

hmmmm...so which pervert will be the first to mention possible lesbian scenes?

:eek:
 
Geena Davis for Ewa. They look so alike it's uncanny. I remember years ago Ewa did an ad for Hanes, and people were so sure she was Geena Davis that Hanes had Ewa's name added to the bottom of the ad for clarification. LOL
