Take a movie and replace an actor or actress with another to make it better. Try to keep it somewhat age and era appropriate - no putting Clark Gable in The Avengers or Dakota Fanning in Star Wars.
I’ll start. Gangs of New York - replace the incredibly miscast Cameron Diaz with Keira Knightly. Or Amy Adams. Or my left nut. Diaz sucked in that otherwise decent film.

The one that immediately comes to mind is "The Godfather Part 3", in which the role of Michael Corleone's daughter went to the director's daughter, Sofia Coppola, which pretty much ruined the movie. The original choice for the part was apparently Winona Ryder, who would certainly have been much better.

it's probably a crime to tempt with perfection but in 'larry crowne', i'd have Dean Tainot played by gerard depardieu instead of Bryan Cranston. don't get the cranston hype.

Dean Tainot is obviously a classic character that we are all familiar with, so I would leave it alone. I mean, what next? Are you gonna try to replace Wilmer Valderama? Let's not get crazy here. |

Any movie Rob Scneider has been in. Take out Rob Schneider. Don't need a replacement: you've already made it better, and exponentially so.

Tom Hardy as Dell Gordo would intrigue.

Back to the Future Part III - replace Mary Steenburgen with Sigourney Weaver
To be fair, I'd even welcome 21st century Steenburgen instead of her 1990 self. She's very good in Elf.

I never really did buy Julia Roberts as a hooker in Pretty Woman. No prostitute on earth looks like that, and I don’t even think Julia’s all that hot anyway. Courtney Love circa the Larry Flynt movie is probably more accurate, and thus Richard Gere wouldn’t be climbing up any fire escapes for that dumpster fire.

Nowadays, I've come round to seeing Richard Gere as a really good actor, but way way back in the day, he starred in a movie called King David, who had been king of Israel. Bad as Orlando Bloom was in Kingdom of Heaver, he was a million times better than Gere was in this turkey. So in the remake, we should have Tom Huddlestone as the heroic No.1 Jew.
Oh wait...wasn't his father a Nazi?
