DR Posters go to Hollywood

Rumor has it that traffic on the DR boards has been so slow, most of the members traveled to Hollywood for a casting call to remake old movies and Television programs

Many of these people, having a preconceived notion of themselves had selected parts for the producers to cast; the results:AZB thought he would be great in Omar Shariff’s award winning roles in Dr Zhivago, He apparently “read” well and they figured with a little makeup he would do fine, so off to makeup and costuming he went.

Somewhere there was as a mix-up and AZB entered makeup, they sat him down, ripped off his shirt, wrapped it around his head in a Turban and shaved his back, sending him back as an overweight Gandhi

They weren’t sure what to do with Carina, she didn’t get the Britney Spears body double position she felt she was perfect for, so they made her a Chinese peasant carrying a bamboo pole with water jugs in a remake of Apocalypse now

Music Queen was looking to fit into a Demi Moore type role, costuming said she would have to pay for the extra 12 yards of cloth for each costume, and the insurance estimator refused to let her try and push her boobs forward in every picture fearing the fabric may break and injure someone, she was cast as Aunt Bea in Andy Griffith alongside Rocky as Barney

Ken made a commercial for Mint Patties, he was the elderly gentleman who bites the patty than shouts “I’ve got a feeling” When queried “what feeling” Ken only had to reply, “I don’t care, I have a feeling for the first time in 30 years”

XR asked for Russel Crowe’s role in the Gladiator remake, he got Napoleon in exile on Alba instead.
