WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:05.400 Mac, how often do you think of the Roman Empire? I? Uh, 2 00:00:06.320 --> 00:00:09.199 My sister texted me this about a week ago, as she saw this 3 00:00:09.279 --> 00:00:14.080 trend, and I said to her, almost never, like why the fuck 4 00:00:14.119 --> 00:00:17.399 did you ask me that I hadn't yet seen the trend? And then she 5 00:00:17.559 --> 00:00:20.399 sent me the TikTok and I said, actually, now that you say that, 6 00:00:20.879 --> 00:00:23.760 I had just had a conversation like two days before about how the Romans 7 00:00:23.760 --> 00:00:27.440 fucked up the calendar, they changed the whole entire calendar. So I guess 8 00:00:27.440 --> 00:00:31.359 I don't think about the Romans all that often, but I bet I have 9 00:00:31.839 --> 00:00:36.399 conversations about the Roman Empire probably once every couple of weeks. And ask me, 10 00:00:37.240 --> 00:00:42.079 go, how often do you think of the Roman Empire? Now, 11 00:00:42.159 --> 00:00:45.840 keep in mind, I am going to Rome in about two weeks. Yep, 12 00:00:46.039 --> 00:00:49.799 yep, yep. Never. I don't think I've ever thought about them. 13 00:00:49.960 --> 00:00:53.159 You're not really a history guy. I don't think you care what happened 14 00:00:53.159 --> 00:00:59.200 a week ago. Broken it's tunnel vision baby. Now that you say that, 15 00:00:59.240 --> 00:01:02.280 though, what are you looking forward to most in Rome? Pizza, 16 00:01:02.280 --> 00:01:07.159 pie, pasta, So not the Colosseum or anything like that. I've seen 17 00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:11.040 the Colosseum. It's nice. Oh you've already been to Rome. I have 18 00:01:11.120 --> 00:01:14.239 been to Rome? Why you even going? Then? We liked it there. 19 00:01:14.640 --> 00:01:19.680 What I love about Rome is that every single place there is trying to 20 00:01:19.959 --> 00:01:23.920 undercut the place next to it. So you're walking, you're like, oh, 21 00:01:23.040 --> 00:01:26.280 Pasta's eight dollars over there, and you're like, oh, wait, 22 00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:30.760 Pasta's seven dollars over there, it's six dollars over there, five over there. 23 00:01:30.239 --> 00:01:42.799 Every place is just trying to swindle the next place. One good, 24 00:01:42.959 --> 00:01:57.680 three, yeah, just three. King of Queen Middle Street Entertainment. IM 25 00:02:00.040 --> 00:02:02.719 you and I'm man, and we are the Mac and Goop program. We 26 00:02:02.879 --> 00:02:07.080 bring you friendship. Yeah, and today we're bringing you something that's probably pretty 27 00:02:07.080 --> 00:02:10.080 confusing for most of us. But wanted to do it, so here we 28 00:02:10.120 --> 00:02:15.639 are. The main reason why I wanted to do it is such a small 29 00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:20.080 part of what the episode is now. Okay, and I'm not even sure 30 00:02:20.120 --> 00:02:23.120 what we're calling this episode. I just haven't labeled at the bottom Hollywood mistakes. 31 00:02:23.159 --> 00:02:30.319 But what it really is is actors actresses that passed up on huge roles 32 00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:34.199 to take another one, and one might say that they made a mistake by 33 00:02:34.240 --> 00:02:37.560 doing so. Okay, all right, you could call this what if, 34 00:02:38.120 --> 00:02:43.080 what if? What if? Dot dot dot? That's all I got. 35 00:02:43.919 --> 00:02:49.000 I don't have a subtitle either. So the premise here essentially is an actor 36 00:02:49.039 --> 00:02:53.719 in a movie miss connections, miss connections, miss connections, out lowered expectations, 37 00:02:53.800 --> 00:02:57.000 and then they take something else, And of course we'll have you know 38 00:02:57.120 --> 00:03:00.560 what they passed that movie on for the other what their reason are for not 39 00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:06.639 taking said movie. We have four tiers, four said actors and actresses to 40 00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:10.319 be put into, and that is at the top code read I've made a 41 00:03:10.439 --> 00:03:15.879 huge mistake, Joe voice. So those are the worst Yes, the worst 42 00:03:16.960 --> 00:03:23.080 tier, Yes, yeah, recounting down or recounting will be will be ranking 43 00:03:23.199 --> 00:03:27.120 the decision of the actor, not the movie. Correct the actor's decision, 44 00:03:27.240 --> 00:03:30.479 yes, unless it falls into this next category, which is win win, 45 00:03:31.120 --> 00:03:34.960 which is I guess they made a good decision, but the movie was. 46 00:03:35.599 --> 00:03:38.400 That's gonna be confusing. Let me explain myself real quick. That is, 47 00:03:38.439 --> 00:03:44.680 the actor passed on this movie took on another successful movie, and the movie 48 00:03:44.919 --> 00:03:49.560 that the actor passed on got someone that fit the role better. Okay, 49 00:03:49.639 --> 00:03:53.319 all right, so win win win win. Is that what I'm saying over 50 00:03:53.479 --> 00:03:58.000 here? Right? The next one off here just straight up movie was better 51 00:03:58.080 --> 00:04:01.879 off. So the movie was better off. But also the actor doesn't look 52 00:04:01.879 --> 00:04:05.479 like an idiot. Yes, okay, yes, thank you for explaining that, 53 00:04:05.520 --> 00:04:09.560 because I didn't know what else to say. So that's good. And 54 00:04:09.599 --> 00:04:13.159 then finally for the actor, good for them. It was good that they 55 00:04:13.159 --> 00:04:15.319 didn't take this role. They had a good reason. So the movie sucked 56 00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:17.959 and the actor made a good decision. Maybe the movie was great, maybe 57 00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:20.199 the movie made a ton of money, but the actor said, here are 58 00:04:20.199 --> 00:04:24.720 my reasons, and you can respect their reasons for doing it, all right, 59 00:04:24.720 --> 00:04:28.560 And how many actors in decisions do we roughly have here? One hundred 60 00:04:28.600 --> 00:04:30.839 and sixty seven. All right, let's rip, let's rip through this. 61 00:04:30.879 --> 00:04:35.079 And of course this tear was made by the tear maker himself, the other 62 00:04:35.120 --> 00:04:41.399 Billy D a tear master much like the page master McAuley culkin. And also 63 00:04:41.560 --> 00:04:46.959 got to thank Men's Health. And I can't think of the other website that 64 00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:50.160 Billy D helped pull from. It might have been Slate. I thought you 65 00:04:50.160 --> 00:04:54.759 were just announcing a sponsor here for the program. Hey, if Men's Health 66 00:04:54.839 --> 00:04:58.279 wants to hop on, I'm all for it. Alright, all right, 67 00:04:58.360 --> 00:05:00.720 let's get started here with the first on the list, and that is Jack 68 00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:08.600 Nicholson passing Michael Corleone in The Godfather and his reason. He told Movieline in 69 00:05:08.639 --> 00:05:13.600 twenty zero four that the role should go to an Italian. This to me, 70 00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:16.560 now, this is a clear Jack Nicholson bias in my part, win 71 00:05:16.680 --> 00:05:21.800 win, because Jack Nicholson went on to make several other great movies. Yeah, 72 00:05:21.839 --> 00:05:26.879 so like, obviously being in the Godfather would have helped him out. 73 00:05:27.199 --> 00:05:30.839 But it's not like he struggled to get roles after this, so maybe it's 74 00:05:30.920 --> 00:05:33.279 movie was better off. I don't think he would have added to this movie. 75 00:05:33.360 --> 00:05:35.879 You know what movie might have been better off? You're right, I 76 00:05:35.959 --> 00:05:41.639 have a hard time envisioning that Jack Nicholson would have made The Godfather better. 77 00:05:41.959 --> 00:05:46.000 I passed on The Godfather. That's such a good Jack Nicholson. You guys 78 00:05:46.040 --> 00:05:49.439 probably thought he was here. Now I'm trying to think, like Goodfellas, 79 00:05:49.480 --> 00:05:53.800 they deal with the whole Irish Italian thing too. But Jack Nicholson would have 80 00:05:53.839 --> 00:05:56.680 been playing in Italian, yes, exactly, been playing an Irish guy. 81 00:05:56.759 --> 00:05:59.360 So yeah, let's go with the movie was better off? Actually, I 82 00:05:59.399 --> 00:06:04.040 like that, asked the gab A ghoul. Mike Nicholson is fucking terrible. 83 00:06:04.360 --> 00:06:08.000 Yeah, it's not great, So that's a good one. Also, just 84 00:06:08.079 --> 00:06:11.879 a reminder of how we do tears. We get three vetos and two stamps. 85 00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:15.920 Yeah. The next one up here is John Travolta passing on Forrest Gump. 86 00:06:16.480 --> 00:06:19.639 He was offered the role but turned it down to make pulp fiction. 87 00:06:20.079 --> 00:06:24.720 This is a win win. That's a classic win win right there. I 88 00:06:24.759 --> 00:06:28.639 don't think he would have been good in that role, but he was great 89 00:06:28.680 --> 00:06:30.759 in pulp fiction, so he gets the win win. Hey, life is 90 00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:35.600 like a box of chocolates. Never know what you're gonna get. This is 91 00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:40.639 gonna be a full impression episode. I'm so excited about this. I am 92 00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:45.600 so excited about I would like to know who who offered him the role of 93 00:06:45.720 --> 00:06:47.800 Forrest Gump. There had to have been a conversation where like, no, 94 00:06:47.920 --> 00:06:50.319 no, come on, we can't do this, and some guy was like, 95 00:06:50.360 --> 00:06:57.600 no, John Travolta is Forrest cup. He's Danny Zuko as Forrest Gump, 96 00:06:59.560 --> 00:07:06.000 Jo for Scump, Rocket a tea birds Jacket. Next one up here 97 00:07:06.199 --> 00:07:11.560 is Will Smith passing up Neo in the Matrix. He explained he turned down 98 00:07:11.560 --> 00:07:15.480 the role because and he was not proud of the decision, but the movie 99 00:07:15.519 --> 00:07:18.920 seemed too confusing in lack luster. He went on to make Wild wild West 100 00:07:18.959 --> 00:07:26.680 instead. I've made a huge mistake. H Yeah, as much as I 101 00:07:26.759 --> 00:07:30.360 love Keyatu in that role, I'm very intrigued as to what that movie would 102 00:07:30.360 --> 00:07:33.600 look like with Will Smith. So yeah, that's gonna be any huge mistakes. 103 00:07:33.600 --> 00:07:36.480 And like, obviously Keanu is like if you could look at it as 104 00:07:36.519 --> 00:07:41.079 a possible win win, But Will Smith did not go on to make a 105 00:07:41.120 --> 00:07:44.839 win. Obviously, several years down the line he did, but Wild Wild 106 00:07:44.879 --> 00:07:48.720 West was a poor choice. Yeah, really bad choice. And again that 107 00:07:48.839 --> 00:07:54.519 role is iconic for Keyadu, but it's not like any acting decision he made 108 00:07:54.519 --> 00:07:58.000 in that role was iconic. So maybe it could have been elevated even more. 109 00:07:58.079 --> 00:08:00.920 But you know what we were robbed of, And this was during the 110 00:08:00.959 --> 00:08:05.079 time where Will Smith made a rap song for all of his movies. We 111 00:08:05.079 --> 00:08:11.759 were robbed of a matrix raps matrix Will Smith featuring Lawrence Fishburn. This next 112 00:08:11.759 --> 00:08:16.439 one, that pair is Robin Williams passing up Jack Torrence in The Shining. 113 00:08:16.480 --> 00:08:22.000 Reportedly, director Stanley Kubrick that was his top choice so this is interesting as 114 00:08:22.040 --> 00:08:26.639 a non Jack Nicholson guy. I don't know if anyone could do that better 115 00:08:26.680 --> 00:08:31.800 than Jack Nicholson. Yeah, but if someone could have, it might be 116 00:08:31.000 --> 00:08:37.080 Robin Williams. Yeah, and that was before Williams tapped into that crazy on 117 00:08:37.320 --> 00:08:43.080 screen character that we saw more throughout the nineties. Yeah, still more of 118 00:08:43.080 --> 00:08:46.480 a marque at this point. That's one of my favorite movies of all time, 119 00:08:46.679 --> 00:08:50.480 one of the best performances of all times. I don't know if Robin 120 00:08:50.519 --> 00:08:54.240 Williams regrets. I don't know if we have a proper tier for this. 121 00:08:54.759 --> 00:08:58.440 Yeah. That's because I don't know if that's a win win. Well, 122 00:08:58.440 --> 00:09:01.720 maybe it is, because I put it the way his trajectory would have changed. 123 00:09:01.799 --> 00:09:05.759 If he was in that horror movie, he would have played much more 124 00:09:05.799 --> 00:09:09.679 different roles going for he would have played more Nicholson roles. He also, 125 00:09:09.799 --> 00:09:13.519 so if he did this role, he might have been the Joker and Batman. 126 00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:16.679 Oh shit, that would have been pretty cool. Yeah, so keep 127 00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:22.000 the Joker would have been pretty cool. I guess I got my characters, 128 00:09:22.279 --> 00:09:26.879 Okay. Leonardo DiCaprio turned down Broke Back Mountain. He was not the only 129 00:09:26.879 --> 00:09:31.039 person to pass on the role Brad Pitt and Matt Damon did as well. 130 00:09:31.440 --> 00:09:37.759 This is an interesting one because Heath Ledger and Jake Jillen Hall absolutely demolished those 131 00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:43.320 two roles, and I think they were both like B list actors at the 132 00:09:43.320 --> 00:09:46.480 time. I think they were fringe A list, but they weren't, so 133 00:09:46.840 --> 00:09:50.399 they were a list, but they weren't movie stars. They weren't megastars as 134 00:09:50.440 --> 00:09:54.519 opposed to DiCaprio, Damon and Pitt, which I think would have overshadows the 135 00:09:54.919 --> 00:10:01.480 perfect role. And I think Jillen Hall and Ledger we're perfectly cast for that 136 00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:05.159 because they were known but not megastars. So I would say movie movie was 137 00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:11.440 better off absolutely on that one. Next one up here is John Liftgau as 138 00:10:11.519 --> 00:10:16.120 the Joker, with Liftgou telling Conan O'Brien in twenty nineteen he thought, at 139 00:10:16.120 --> 00:10:24.559 the time, who is gonna want to watch a movie about Batman? I 140 00:10:24.720 --> 00:10:28.759 don't like Jack Nicholson as the Joker, However, I think John Liftgou would 141 00:10:28.759 --> 00:10:33.159 have been a terrible Joker. Movie was better off. Well, the movie 142 00:10:33.200 --> 00:10:35.279 was better off, but also I've made a huge mistake because he would have 143 00:10:35.279 --> 00:10:39.879 been a movie star after this. Yeah, but I don't know if he 144 00:10:39.879 --> 00:10:43.840 would have, because I don't think it would have been good. Movie was 145 00:10:43.879 --> 00:10:48.799 better off. You're right, Burt Reynolds as James Bond in Live and Let 146 00:10:48.840 --> 00:10:52.120 Die. I don't think Burt Reynolds can do a British accent. Number one, 147 00:10:52.559 --> 00:10:56.000 everyone loves Burt Reynolds. I don't actually think Burt Reynolds is that good 148 00:10:56.000 --> 00:11:00.360 of an actor. Maybe that's just me. Maybe I'll get killed for that, 149 00:11:00.440 --> 00:11:01.600 but I don't think he could do a British accent. And so if 150 00:11:01.639 --> 00:11:07.279 you have a James Bond with a shitty British accent or doing an A or 151 00:11:07.519 --> 00:11:11.039 having an American accent, I think that would have sucked. Doing a Burt 152 00:11:11.039 --> 00:11:16.480 Reynolds accent. I think this is a win win. Burt Reynolds looks better 153 00:11:16.519 --> 00:11:20.519 in the long run, and James Bond doesn't get you know, shot, 154 00:11:20.679 --> 00:11:24.279 because I might lean more towards movie was better Off. But I could see 155 00:11:24.320 --> 00:11:26.919 either of those being the right way. Yeah, that could work too. 156 00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:31.559 Yeah. Then we go to Christina Applegate as l Woods and legally blonde, 157 00:11:31.559 --> 00:11:35.559 and it's more just about her not wanting to repeat herself. And you know 158 00:11:37.200 --> 00:11:41.200 what if the movie was stupid that you know what if that happened. That's 159 00:11:41.200 --> 00:11:43.399 gotta be I've made a Hughes mistake. That's an iconic role, it always 160 00:11:43.440 --> 00:11:48.440 will be. But also Greasy recy is great in it. Yeah, I 161 00:11:48.519 --> 00:11:52.039 mean that's that was like a career making role for Reese Witherspoon. I mean, 162 00:11:52.120 --> 00:11:54.240 she was in other stuff before, but that showed you she could be 163 00:11:54.279 --> 00:12:01.320 a megastar and launched her into a different level. And Applegate's fine without that, 164 00:12:01.399 --> 00:12:03.799 but she definitely could have done that as well. Like if you imagine 165 00:12:03.879 --> 00:12:09.000 Kelly Bundy going to Harvard, it's similar to that. Sean Connery passed up 166 00:12:09.039 --> 00:12:11.519 on Gandolf and Lord of the Rings. He turned down the role saying he 167 00:12:11.559 --> 00:12:16.639 did not understand the scripts. And because of this, he reportedly missed out 168 00:12:16.720 --> 00:12:20.480 on four hundred and fifty million dollars. So he's made a huge mistake, 169 00:12:20.559 --> 00:12:22.840 number one, because that's a lot of money and those movies were great. 170 00:12:24.559 --> 00:12:28.600 But do you think he would have made a good Gandoff? Not as good 171 00:12:28.720 --> 00:12:33.559 as what we got. And also the movie that he did was a League 172 00:12:33.600 --> 00:12:37.360 of Extraordinary Gentlemen, and then after that he just retired. I would say 173 00:12:37.440 --> 00:12:41.080 movie was better off that he did not take this role. But I would 174 00:12:41.120 --> 00:12:46.720 also say that four hundred and fifty million dollars is a lot financially, Yes, 175 00:12:46.879 --> 00:12:50.159 but the movie so yeah, that's that's right in the middle there. 176 00:12:50.519 --> 00:12:54.000 He clearly should have taken the role based on how well the movies did, 177 00:12:54.480 --> 00:12:58.120 but the movies wouldn't have been as good. This is sort of a circular 178 00:12:58.159 --> 00:13:05.879 argument here. Is there a category called win lose? I'm good with either 179 00:13:05.720 --> 00:13:09.360 I've made a huge mistake or a better off. I would say I've made 180 00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:11.720 a huge mistake, all right, I'll accept that, like he made the 181 00:13:11.720 --> 00:13:16.960 big mistake. Obviously the movie was better off. But that's fair that Yeah, 182 00:13:18.039 --> 00:13:20.519 it's a lot of money. That's that is very true. I'm sure 183 00:13:20.559 --> 00:13:24.480 his family is thrilled. I mean, this the third one one best picture. 184 00:13:24.559 --> 00:13:26.879 So he turned down an opportunity to be in a movie that won an 185 00:13:26.919 --> 00:13:31.519 Oscar Alpaccino turned down Hans Solo in the Star Wars series, saying, I 186 00:13:31.559 --> 00:13:35.840 was in The Godfather. They didn't care if I was right or wrong for 187 00:13:35.919 --> 00:13:39.399 a role. They would just offer it to me because of who I was. 188 00:13:39.759 --> 00:13:43.519 You know what, It's almost a good for them because he made the 189 00:13:43.559 --> 00:13:48.320 right decision, because he would not have fitten this role, but the movie 190 00:13:48.440 --> 00:13:52.960 was way better off not having him, So call it as you see it, 191 00:13:52.960 --> 00:13:58.440 because Alpacino also didn't need Star Wars. Yes, correct, and he's 192 00:13:58.480 --> 00:14:03.200 absolutely right about getting off every role after The Godfathers. So credit to him. 193 00:14:03.240 --> 00:14:05.320 That's a win for him and a win for us as the fans. 194 00:14:05.840 --> 00:14:09.679 Matt Damon turned down Harvey Dent in The Dark Night and said, every now 195 00:14:09.720 --> 00:14:11.840 and then, I think about it. Every now and then you get one 196 00:14:11.879 --> 00:14:15.480 and you just can't do what. I believe he had scheduling issues, and 197 00:14:15.519 --> 00:14:18.080 he said that Aaron also did a great job in the role. Aaron, 198 00:14:18.600 --> 00:14:22.399 Aaron Eckhart was great as Harvey Dent. Matt Damon would have been great as 199 00:14:22.440 --> 00:14:28.440 Harvey Dent. I'm a little afraid it's sort of what we talked about before. 200 00:14:28.480 --> 00:14:31.720 Matt Damon almost overshadows the rest of the cast in that movie. If 201 00:14:31.720 --> 00:14:35.720 he's cast in that movie, Aaron Eckhart is the perfect level of actor for 202 00:14:35.759 --> 00:14:39.159 that role. I don't know if it's a win for Damon though, Yeah, 203 00:14:39.200 --> 00:14:43.320 because he went on to do a bunch of those smaller movies that didn't 204 00:14:43.320 --> 00:14:48.320 necessarily crush it. He's had some real misses in the last fifteen years. 205 00:14:48.679 --> 00:14:50.480 As much as I like him, I don't know if the movie was better 206 00:14:50.519 --> 00:14:54.919 off either, because I think he can at least replicate what Eckhart gave us 207 00:14:56.159 --> 00:14:58.840 as good as Eckhart was, So maybe maybe he made a huge mistake there. 208 00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:01.440 I don't think it was a huge mistake though, Also, what do 209 00:15:01.559 --> 00:15:05.919 you make at the time it was a scheduling issue. Uh No, it's 210 00:15:05.919 --> 00:15:09.399 definitely not good for him, though, I don't think better off. Do 211 00:15:09.440 --> 00:15:11.120 you think the movie was better off? Yeah? I think so a little 212 00:15:11.120 --> 00:15:15.759 bit, A little bit. A cart's great in that, okay, all 213 00:15:15.840 --> 00:15:20.240 right, movie was better off. Harrison Ford turned down Alan Grant in Jurassic 214 00:15:20.320 --> 00:15:26.399 Park for reasons undisclosed. He made a huge mistake, huge mistake. I 215 00:15:26.480 --> 00:15:31.200 don't know. Do you think he wanted to be in another franchise where fans 216 00:15:31.200 --> 00:15:33.720 would bother him. I think he's pretty happy with what he did. On 217 00:15:33.799 --> 00:15:39.320 a personal level, he's probably happy. But if you're gonna use the Connery 218 00:15:39.320 --> 00:15:41.639 agrement here, he missed out on a ship ton of money and he had 219 00:15:41.679 --> 00:15:45.879 another iconic role. You want me to come back for another Jurassic Park movie, 220 00:15:46.080 --> 00:15:48.399 And I think that would have been especially funny to watch like him not 221 00:15:48.480 --> 00:15:52.399 wanting to be there in that role, he would have been like even more 222 00:15:52.440 --> 00:15:56.679 of a cunt. I think the movie was better off for like the stars 223 00:15:56.799 --> 00:16:02.879 of the movie was Newman. I bet you thought I was gonna say the 224 00:16:02.879 --> 00:16:06.720 dinosaurs. I don't think the movie was better off for this the movie obviously. 225 00:16:06.919 --> 00:16:08.159 I think the movie actually is better off for it. I think the 226 00:16:08.200 --> 00:16:12.799 movie is better off for like the dinosaurs of the spectacle, Harrison Ford would 227 00:16:12.799 --> 00:16:18.039 have been the spectacle. I think Harrison probably would have hated acting against those 228 00:16:18.080 --> 00:16:22.399 sort of dinosaur animatronics or greens. But there were puppets at the time, 229 00:16:22.440 --> 00:16:25.960 there were puppets. He's maybe over that. He's always been a big fan 230 00:16:26.000 --> 00:16:29.200 of puppets. He's always said he loves puppet shows. Because of his poor 231 00:16:29.240 --> 00:16:32.960 attitude, I'll agree with you the movie was better off my assuming that he's 232 00:16:33.000 --> 00:16:37.399 gonna have a poor attitude because he fucking he crushed the nineties. He did 233 00:16:37.399 --> 00:16:40.120 a bunch of movies that he wanted to do. No, that's true, 234 00:16:40.240 --> 00:16:42.279 that's true. I agree with you on that one. Johnny Depp turned down 235 00:16:42.320 --> 00:16:45.159 Ferris. Maybe that's a win win hold on that might be a win win 236 00:16:45.240 --> 00:16:48.679 then, okay, fine, win, win, all right, win win, 237 00:16:48.200 --> 00:16:52.759 Billy for Harrison. Billy. Looks like you didn't put the Johnny Depp 238 00:16:52.799 --> 00:16:56.399 one on here, Billy, But I'll just mention it and we'll move on. 239 00:16:56.480 --> 00:17:00.679 Johnny Depp turning down Ferris Bueller and Ferris Bueller's Day Off. That's all 240 00:17:00.759 --> 00:17:06.400 right, whatever movie was much better off not having Johnny Depp in there, 241 00:17:06.880 --> 00:17:10.960 just my opinion. How about Emily Blunt turning down Black Widow and Iron Man 242 00:17:11.000 --> 00:17:17.519 two based on her comments about comic book movies. That's more recent though, 243 00:17:17.720 --> 00:17:21.960 well, at the time it was scheduling. I'm sure she felt that way 244 00:17:22.000 --> 00:17:25.799 back then too. That had to have played a part in the decision making 245 00:17:25.839 --> 00:17:30.400 there. So I'll say, I don't know what she went on to make. 246 00:17:30.519 --> 00:17:33.400 I do love Emily Blunt, but this is a win win because she 247 00:17:33.440 --> 00:17:36.640 still went on to make good movies and we got scarred Joe because of his 248 00:17:36.720 --> 00:17:41.880 Magnum PI contract. Tom Selleck had to turn down Indiana Jones. I've made 249 00:17:41.920 --> 00:17:45.920 a huge mistake. Yeah, he made a huge mistake there for sure. 250 00:17:45.160 --> 00:17:49.559 Then he had to go play in a season of Friends. He was great 251 00:17:49.599 --> 00:17:53.599 in that role, though, what was his name I'm blanking right now. 252 00:17:55.000 --> 00:17:56.440 I don't know. This is gonna be one of the answers at our trivia 253 00:17:56.440 --> 00:18:00.880 at Idle Hands. By the way, tom Selik's mustache Selex mustache, the 254 00:18:00.880 --> 00:18:07.200 episode where Chandler grows a mustache to be more like him. Nicholas Cage turning 255 00:18:07.200 --> 00:18:12.119 down Aragorn in Lord of the Rings. He doesn't regret the move, but 256 00:18:12.920 --> 00:18:21.319 he does wish circumstances would have allowed him to take the role. So this 257 00:18:21.359 --> 00:18:26.839 has gotta be so. Cage's two thousands were so up and down. He 258 00:18:26.920 --> 00:18:30.960 has like the National Treasure movies and whatnot, but he also has ghost Rider 259 00:18:32.200 --> 00:18:37.000 and uh, what's the what's the not the Bees role? Two of the 260 00:18:37.039 --> 00:18:41.640 worst roles of all times, So it can't will win for him Wickerman, 261 00:18:41.759 --> 00:18:45.559 That's what it was. The movie was definitely better off. I don't think 262 00:18:45.559 --> 00:18:48.880 he would have added to a Lord of the Rings movie. The two thousands 263 00:18:48.240 --> 00:18:52.759 led to him being in one hundred and fifty movies in the twenty tents. 264 00:18:53.000 --> 00:18:56.960 This might have relieved some of that stress. The movie was better off, 265 00:18:56.960 --> 00:19:00.440 but it was. Yeah, because it's not a win for Nicolas Cage, 266 00:19:00.480 --> 00:19:03.160 I don't think. But it also might be a huge mistake. He even 267 00:19:03.160 --> 00:19:06.319 says it. He's like, I didn't get the script, but I wish 268 00:19:06.359 --> 00:19:11.440 I did it. Yeah, but he so we're going off based He clearly 269 00:19:11.440 --> 00:19:14.720 thinks that it was a mistake, but I don't think it was a mistake 270 00:19:14.960 --> 00:19:18.599 for him. But I also think, like the two thousands, as bad 271 00:19:18.640 --> 00:19:22.240 as he was and some well matter that the movies were, it leads to 272 00:19:22.720 --> 00:19:26.839 and it plays into how iconic he's become. Imagine a Lord of the Rings 273 00:19:26.880 --> 00:19:32.240 with Sean Connery and Nicolas Cage, like going back a Rock reunion. Going 274 00:19:32.279 --> 00:19:36.559 back and watching bad Nicholas Cage movies now is almost a pleasure because they're so 275 00:19:36.599 --> 00:19:41.039 bad. Ian McKellen turned down Dumbledore in the Harry Potter series. I think 276 00:19:41.039 --> 00:19:44.839 it was where take over a part from an actor. So I think it 277 00:19:44.880 --> 00:19:48.640 was to take over the part after the first fella died. Yes, yeah, 278 00:19:48.720 --> 00:19:51.240 something to Harris, yes, I think. And he didn't want to 279 00:19:51.279 --> 00:19:55.000 do that. That was the whole thing originally. Yes, he made a 280 00:19:55.079 --> 00:19:57.359 huge mistake there, because what has he done other than X Men since then 281 00:19:57.519 --> 00:20:00.319 Lord of the Rings. He was already in Lord of the Rings. He 282 00:20:00.359 --> 00:20:03.039 did more Lord of the Rings. I think he made a huge mistake. 283 00:20:03.160 --> 00:20:07.400 Okay, all right, Mac, I want to staple that there do we 284 00:20:07.519 --> 00:20:14.400 staples our that's our third thing. Now ever gets one staple and I got 285 00:20:14.400 --> 00:20:18.599 one of those staple clamps. I can take that right out those a little 286 00:20:18.640 --> 00:20:22.240 clause. I have an endless one because you can use that a million times. 287 00:20:22.519 --> 00:20:23.759 Yeah, it just ruins the paper, that's all. You don't have 288 00:20:23.799 --> 00:20:29.359 to really. Yeah, the great point whoever made that never considered the quality 289 00:20:29.400 --> 00:20:32.559 of the paper that you'd be removing a staple from, because it just fucking 290 00:20:32.720 --> 00:20:36.240 smashes the paper. Either that or we don't know how to use those things 291 00:20:36.240 --> 00:20:41.319 correctly. Molly Ringwall turned down Vivian Ward in Pretty Woman. She said this 292 00:20:41.559 --> 00:20:45.119 in an AMA twenty twelve, revealed that she was approached for the lead role 293 00:20:45.240 --> 00:20:48.200 in Pretty Woman makes sense. She was still a huge star at the time. 294 00:20:49.279 --> 00:20:55.079 She reviewed the scripts and didn't share why she did not pursue the role. 295 00:20:55.559 --> 00:21:02.160 She's made a huge mistake because after that go Molly Ringwald did do anything. 296 00:21:02.640 --> 00:21:07.160 She didn't do anything. She was the mom in time. I also 297 00:21:07.160 --> 00:21:11.200 would have liked to see Molly Ringwald done up the way they did Julia Roberts, 298 00:21:11.599 --> 00:21:15.920 but that was a star making star making role, absolute star making role. 299 00:21:15.440 --> 00:21:21.559 Henry Winkler turned down Danny Zuko in Greece. My assumption here, and 300 00:21:21.839 --> 00:21:25.319 there's a lot of words here, but I think it's pretty much just boiled 301 00:21:25.359 --> 00:21:27.519 down to typecasting. He didn't want to just being Italian every single time. 302 00:21:29.359 --> 00:21:30.599 He didn't want to be an Italian in a leather jack. He didn't want 303 00:21:30.599 --> 00:21:33.240 to be an Italian street tough every every movie. Guys, come on, 304 00:21:33.279 --> 00:21:36.480 take it easy on. That would have been a tough one to buy. 305 00:21:36.559 --> 00:21:40.160 To see him going from Fonzi to Danny Zuko. It's a similar character. 306 00:21:40.279 --> 00:21:42.640 I guess. First of all, can Henry Winkler sing? I was asking 307 00:21:42.680 --> 00:21:45.799 to ask you, can you check your database? I know that you have 308 00:21:45.839 --> 00:21:49.519 a database of actors that can also sing. Can Henry Winkler sing? To 309 00:21:49.559 --> 00:21:52.839 me? This was a win win? Yes, this is it. This 310 00:21:52.880 --> 00:21:56.640 is a win win. Granted, obviously being a part of an iconic movie 311 00:21:56.640 --> 00:21:59.759 would have been something, but he still has Fonzie, and he had that 312 00:21:59.839 --> 00:22:02.759 amazing comeback. He had his Golden Globe, he had his Emmy. So 313 00:22:02.759 --> 00:22:07.880 we're all set. He's all set. Tom Cruise as Wren McCormick in Footloose 314 00:22:07.440 --> 00:22:12.759 reportedly he turned down the role because of scheduling and conflict with all the right 315 00:22:12.839 --> 00:22:19.640 moves. Great reference to this in uh, what did we just the flashed? 316 00:22:19.920 --> 00:22:27.039 That's right, they referenced this eighties potential swaps here. I would be 317 00:22:27.359 --> 00:22:33.440 intrigued. And we've talked about this more recently to Tom Cruile's Cruise and the 318 00:22:33.480 --> 00:22:41.119 more Tom cruils Tom. I can't speak today in the less like serious roles. 319 00:22:41.200 --> 00:22:45.640 I mean footloose is like oddly like serious, but a little more comedic. 320 00:22:45.160 --> 00:22:48.079 I think Kevin Bacon crushes this role. I don't I don't know how 321 00:22:48.119 --> 00:22:51.759 to. I don't know how tossess this one. I'd say win win. 322 00:22:51.960 --> 00:22:55.200 I mean obviously, I think that this could have added to Cruise's resume, 323 00:22:55.640 --> 00:23:00.200 and he didn't become Is this before or after Risky Business? It might be 324 00:23:00.279 --> 00:23:03.799 right after Risky Business, so he was already a star, not a big 325 00:23:03.799 --> 00:23:08.960 deal. Charlie Huntum as Christian Gray in the Fifty Shades of Gray movie. 326 00:23:10.000 --> 00:23:11.839 He did a couple of table reads, but he had to leave and he 327 00:23:11.920 --> 00:23:15.920 felt awful about it. That was a massive fan casting too. I remember 328 00:23:15.960 --> 00:23:21.240 when they were casting that movie because the book series obviously exploded and so many 329 00:23:21.279 --> 00:23:23.039 people. Of course, he's coming off Sons of Aaronaki, one of the 330 00:23:23.079 --> 00:23:29.680 more famous television actors at the time. Everyone wanted him to play Christian Gray. 331 00:23:29.880 --> 00:23:33.599 They cast him as Christian Gray originally. I don't know if he regrets 332 00:23:33.640 --> 00:23:37.839 it, because those movies don't even get talked about anymore as big as the 333 00:23:37.839 --> 00:23:41.039 book series. They made a lot of money, But I also think that 334 00:23:41.160 --> 00:23:45.319 if he took on this role it might have done better critically at least. 335 00:23:45.640 --> 00:23:49.839 He also hasn't done much since Sons, so he probably regrets not taking that 336 00:23:49.960 --> 00:23:53.960 role. Mistake, made a huge mistake. Okay, I've made a huge 337 00:23:53.960 --> 00:24:02.000 mistake. Bett Midler as Dolores van Kartier and directs. That's Whoopie Goldberg's character. 338 00:24:06.440 --> 00:24:11.039 Oh boy, movie was much better off, much better off. I 339 00:24:11.039 --> 00:24:14.319 don't do you think she regrets that she turned on the role, telling Metro 340 00:24:14.440 --> 00:24:18.160 in twenty ten that her fans didn't want to see her in a wimple? 341 00:24:18.920 --> 00:24:23.240 Is that a non outfit? I'm not sure, as we were both raised 342 00:24:23.279 --> 00:24:27.920 Catholic and we might should maybe should know that. I have no idea. 343 00:24:27.960 --> 00:24:32.839 I have no idea what a whimple is. Emma Watson turned down Maya Dolan 344 00:24:33.000 --> 00:24:37.480 in La La Land because of scheduling conflicts with Beauty and the Beast. Oh, 345 00:24:37.480 --> 00:24:40.119 so they got the other Emma. Oh she got getting the Beast though, 346 00:24:40.119 --> 00:24:42.759 which was decent, So that's a win win probably. I feel like 347 00:24:42.839 --> 00:24:48.720 La La Land would have done better for her reputation wise. Maybe that's true, 348 00:24:49.039 --> 00:24:53.200 but it wasn't a huge mistake. Yeah, and I don't like La 349 00:24:53.279 --> 00:24:56.640 La Land, so I don't blame her for that, although it did get 350 00:24:56.640 --> 00:24:59.960 nominated for a billion Awards, so I would say it's a win win. 351 00:25:00.200 --> 00:25:04.599 Matthew McConaughey passing up on Jack Dawson in Titanic, he said that he auditioned 352 00:25:04.599 --> 00:25:08.720 with Kate Winslets, had a good audition, walked away from it feeling pretty 353 00:25:08.759 --> 00:25:12.279 confident that he had it and didn't get it. So he never was actually 354 00:25:12.319 --> 00:25:15.880 offered it, but he was close. Yeah. I was gonna say, 355 00:25:15.920 --> 00:25:18.160 I don't know how they would have offered him over DiCaprio because DiCaprio is so 356 00:25:18.319 --> 00:25:22.759 perfect for that role, because what McConaughey doesn't have is that boyish charm that 357 00:25:22.799 --> 00:25:26.960 DiCaprio brought to the role. So I know, this almost seems like he 358 00:25:27.160 --> 00:25:30.039 auditioned for the role, but was never really in the running. Yeah, 359 00:25:30.759 --> 00:25:36.440 the movie was for sure better off. Gwyneth Paltrow as Rose Dawson in Titanic. 360 00:25:36.720 --> 00:25:40.759 Gwyneth Paltrow almost started in Titanic, reportedly turned down the role as Rose, 361 00:25:41.000 --> 00:25:44.839 but she says, you look at the big pictures and think there's a 362 00:25:44.960 --> 00:25:49.319 universal lesson here. It seems like she thinks she made a big mistake. 363 00:25:51.480 --> 00:25:53.680 She doesn't want to admit to it. Was this coming off Shakespeare in Love 364 00:25:53.799 --> 00:25:56.599 as well? Was that the year or two before? It was around that 365 00:25:56.640 --> 00:26:00.599 time Shakespeare in Love was ninety six. I think her ninety five and Titanks 366 00:26:00.640 --> 00:26:04.480 what ninety seven? Yes, so she was probably like the the the it 367 00:26:04.720 --> 00:26:07.799 girl at the time them from the role. Yeah, I feel like she 368 00:26:07.920 --> 00:26:11.480 thinks she made a huge mistake, and I don't necessarily disagree. Hugh Jackman 369 00:26:11.640 --> 00:26:18.200 turned down James Bond in Casino Royale. He said in twenty seventeen that it 370 00:26:18.359 --> 00:26:22.079 would have or he was offered to join just before filming of X two, 371 00:26:22.599 --> 00:26:26.680 and he said he was worried between Bond and X men he would never be 372 00:26:26.720 --> 00:26:30.279 able to do different things. Well, fresh of all, those are two 373 00:26:30.400 --> 00:26:32.640 very different things. So I don't know what he's saying, Like he would 374 00:26:32.680 --> 00:26:34.960 just be stuck to those two franchises. I mean, he's stuck to X 375 00:26:36.000 --> 00:26:37.640 Men anyway. So I don't know really what he's talking about. He's saying 376 00:26:37.640 --> 00:26:41.640 he wants to be a song and dance man, and if he's in Bond 377 00:26:41.680 --> 00:26:45.319 and he's an Xmen, he can't do that. I don't know how I 378 00:26:45.359 --> 00:26:49.599 feel about this, Daniel Craig, about the biggest Daniel Craig Bond guy, 379 00:26:49.880 --> 00:26:52.640 I don't. I don't know how Jackman would have done in the role. 380 00:26:52.680 --> 00:26:56.079 I don't how do you see this? Well, if he did Bond, 381 00:26:56.519 --> 00:27:00.839 we never would have got the greatest showman. Have you seen them? No, 382 00:27:00.519 --> 00:27:04.200 it's pretty good. A couple of great songs in there. You're you're 383 00:27:04.240 --> 00:27:11.039 big Zendaya guy. Though. Yeah, I don't think it was a huge 384 00:27:11.079 --> 00:27:14.920 mistake. I think that he's done pretty well for himself. He has done 385 00:27:14.960 --> 00:27:18.000 pretty well for He's pretty tall. He would have been a nice tall Bond, 386 00:27:18.480 --> 00:27:21.920 that's true. Is it a win win because a lot of people do 387 00:27:22.039 --> 00:27:25.880 like the Craig Yeah, win win for me, all right. Bruce Willis 388 00:27:25.880 --> 00:27:30.839 turned down Sam Wheat and Ghost saying that he was a knucklehead for turning it 389 00:27:30.880 --> 00:27:36.799 down. I just didn't get it, he said. I said, Hey, 390 00:27:36.839 --> 00:27:38.960 the guy's a ghost. How are you going to have a romance? 391 00:27:40.359 --> 00:27:45.319 Famous last words, I'm a real bird brain from turning that down. Swayzy 392 00:27:45.400 --> 00:27:52.000 in that role as iconic. Movie was better off for sure. Liam Neeson 393 00:27:52.240 --> 00:27:56.920 turned down Abraham Lincoln and Lincoln and saying, I thought, I'm not even 394 00:27:56.960 --> 00:28:00.160 supposed to be here. I don't want to play I can't be here. 395 00:28:00.839 --> 00:28:07.359 I'm not even supposed to be here. Zero percent chance that they offered him 396 00:28:07.400 --> 00:28:11.920 this role over Daniel day lewis right. He was at table reads and he's 397 00:28:11.000 --> 00:28:15.079 like, I have no passion for this. I don't want to do this. 398 00:28:15.119 --> 00:28:18.799 That is interesting, this is an extraordinary piece of writing. But I 399 00:28:18.839 --> 00:28:22.640 had no connection with it whatsoever. I don't know if he made a huge 400 00:28:22.680 --> 00:28:26.200 mistake, though, based on what he's saying, it feels like he doesn't 401 00:28:26.200 --> 00:28:27.640 regret it at all. Yeah, that's a win win. The movie was 402 00:28:27.680 --> 00:28:32.480 better off movie. Okay, fine, I those the same things. No. 403 00:28:32.839 --> 00:28:42.559 Mel Gibson turned down General Maximus Decimus Metadius and Gladiator Really is He turned 404 00:28:42.640 --> 00:28:48.839 down Russell Crowe's character Russell Crowe, who did you say this was again Mel 405 00:28:48.880 --> 00:28:52.000 Gibson, and he said, because he's too old or he was too Yeah, 406 00:28:53.720 --> 00:28:56.039 he probably would have been pretty fucking good in that role. Actually, 407 00:28:56.119 --> 00:29:00.319 Russell Crowe is also pretty good in that role too. He probably went on 408 00:29:00.359 --> 00:29:03.960 to make what women want, so so for me, no, he made 409 00:29:04.000 --> 00:29:08.359 he is mistake there, excuse mistake. Tom Hanks as Jerry McGuire in Jerry 410 00:29:08.440 --> 00:29:12.720 McGuire. The role of Jerry McGuire was literally written for Tom Hanks, but 411 00:29:12.799 --> 00:29:18.119 Hanks turned down the film after reading the script, even though the entire production 412 00:29:18.240 --> 00:29:25.440 was banking on him for the movie. Winwyn. Uh. When you think 413 00:29:25.480 --> 00:29:29.160 about the charm that that role has, Tom Cruise does it well, but 414 00:29:29.200 --> 00:29:33.079 you could see how that was written for Hanks. I don't think. Yeah, 415 00:29:33.119 --> 00:29:37.759 I guess, Winwyn. I think at the time Cruis had more boyish 416 00:29:37.839 --> 00:29:42.240 charm for sure, But yeah, all right, fine, Winwyin Jim Carrey 417 00:29:42.279 --> 00:29:48.039 as Buddy the Elf. The script for Elf was first written in nineteen ninety 418 00:29:48.039 --> 00:29:51.559 three, and carry was reportedly ready to play the role of Buddy, but 419 00:29:51.680 --> 00:29:55.359 it did not come out for another decade and he was hesitant to book the 420 00:29:55.480 --> 00:30:00.319 role after playing The Grinch. Thank god, we did not get that because 421 00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:04.200 after seeing Will Ferrell as that character, Buddy the Elf, you could never 422 00:30:04.319 --> 00:30:10.240 envision anyone else ever playing that character, especially not Jim Carrey. Jim Carrey's 423 00:30:10.240 --> 00:30:14.880 Elf would have been more seedy, right, a little more damised. Somebody 424 00:30:15.160 --> 00:30:25.440 stop me movie? Much better off for this Buddy Santa's coming later, Ricky, 425 00:30:25.440 --> 00:30:33.160 Really, I'm back, Maybe impressions go. Amelia Clark turned down Anastasia 426 00:30:33.240 --> 00:30:37.119 Steel in Fifty Shades of Gray, saying that she did not want to do 427 00:30:37.160 --> 00:30:41.119 the required nudity because of the nude scenes that she had done in Game of 428 00:30:41.160 --> 00:30:44.839 Thrones. This is a tough one too. I don't think she really regrets 429 00:30:44.880 --> 00:30:47.839 it, because again, no one even talks about these movies anymore. I 430 00:30:48.000 --> 00:30:51.039 really, I think Dakota Johnson is one of the worst actresses on the plot. 431 00:30:51.119 --> 00:30:52.599 Yeah, I think once again, the movie would have been better with 432 00:30:52.640 --> 00:30:56.319 Clark and hunt him. Yea. But good for her, she didn't want 433 00:30:56.319 --> 00:31:00.279 to do it. Yeah, good for her, Good for her, Good 434 00:31:00.319 --> 00:31:03.519 for her. Brad Pitt as Jason Bourne in the Born series. Pitt was 435 00:31:03.559 --> 00:31:07.880 originally booked to play the role of Born, but left the film series due 436 00:31:07.920 --> 00:31:12.240 to a scheduling conflicts. I don't think Brad Pitt has any regrets in life, 437 00:31:12.240 --> 00:31:15.279 so I don't think he will ever think he's made a huge mistake having 438 00:31:15.319 --> 00:31:19.279 said that, he would have been fucking awesome in this role. Yeah, 439 00:31:19.319 --> 00:31:23.759 but no, Damon, Damon's great. I love Brad Pitt. You I 440 00:31:23.799 --> 00:31:26.039 don't like If you told me he was the best actor on the planet, 441 00:31:26.079 --> 00:31:30.519 I wouldn't disagree. I don't know if he could do a better job than 442 00:31:30.559 --> 00:31:33.839 what Damon did in the role. Though, Sandra Bullock turned down the role 443 00:31:33.920 --> 00:31:37.720 of Neo in The mat We gotta rake that, dude, Oh what did 444 00:31:37.759 --> 00:31:40.400 I do? Tear it? We didn't. We didn't say anything. No 445 00:31:41.279 --> 00:31:48.000 win win win? When sure, Mac, did you know that Sandra Bullock 446 00:31:48.079 --> 00:31:52.440 turned down the role of Neo in The Matrix. Neo was almost turned into 447 00:31:52.480 --> 00:31:57.640 a female role and a script was sent to Bullock, but after those tweaks 448 00:31:57.640 --> 00:32:01.440 of the role, ultimately she turned earned it down. Movie was better off? 449 00:32:02.440 --> 00:32:07.440 Better off? By the way, is Brad Pitt and Troy one of 450 00:32:07.480 --> 00:32:15.720 the coolest characters ever. Brad Pitt badass and once upon a time in Hollywood. 451 00:32:15.160 --> 00:32:19.680 Yeah, outside of murdering his wife, I'll put my foot down. 452 00:32:19.759 --> 00:32:22.640 You shouldn't do that could have been an accident. Well, the movie left 453 00:32:22.680 --> 00:32:24.400 it up as like, well, maybe he didn't, but he probably did, 454 00:32:24.519 --> 00:32:29.039 implies it's likely that he did, but it didn't make it definitive, 455 00:32:29.079 --> 00:32:30.440 and then Quentin Tarantino wrote a book He's like, yeah, he did. 456 00:32:35.000 --> 00:32:39.359 Jennifer Lawrence turned down bella Swan in Twilight and said that she had no idea 457 00:32:39.480 --> 00:32:45.079 Twilight would be such a big deal. Good for her because she would have 458 00:32:45.119 --> 00:32:51.319 been stuck playing that unserious sort of role. I mean, Christen Stewart, 459 00:32:52.200 --> 00:32:54.880 She's fine. I don't mind Kristen Stewart, but she ended up going on 460 00:32:54.920 --> 00:32:59.039 to make The Hunger Games instead, and that was a massive win for her, 461 00:32:59.079 --> 00:33:01.160 so I would say good for good for them. Michael Keaton turned down 462 00:33:01.160 --> 00:33:06.079 the role of Phil Connors in Groundhog Day. Of course, the role went 463 00:33:06.160 --> 00:33:09.920 to Bill Murray, but Keaton told Entertainment Weekly in twenty fourteen he said he 464 00:33:09.960 --> 00:33:15.000 didn't get the allure of the film or the character. This guy sounds like 465 00:33:15.079 --> 00:33:19.640 kind of a rye, sardonic, glib young man that I've played, and 466 00:33:19.640 --> 00:33:22.640 it ended up being played by the great Bill Murray. So you couldn't have 467 00:33:22.640 --> 00:33:25.599 done it better than what Bill did. He's probably right about that, But 468 00:33:25.680 --> 00:33:29.559 I think he could have replicated what Bill Murray gave us. It would have 469 00:33:29.640 --> 00:33:32.359 been pretty good. I love comedic Keaton. Yeah, no, I agree 470 00:33:32.359 --> 00:33:37.240 with you. I agree with you on that. The like that's a tough 471 00:33:37.319 --> 00:33:39.480 one. I think he made a huge mistake. You might be right. 472 00:33:39.640 --> 00:33:43.880 He might be right. That's a fucking great movie. He would have been 473 00:33:43.920 --> 00:33:45.400 awesome in that. He would have been awesome in it. He would have 474 00:33:45.400 --> 00:33:50.839 been great. I agree there. Then Multiplicity rocks because there's so many Keaton's, 475 00:33:50.920 --> 00:33:53.200 it's all Keytons. Give me all the Keatons. If you can give 476 00:33:53.200 --> 00:33:58.400 me a Keaton multiverse movie of just all the Keaton characters, Yeah, you 477 00:33:58.480 --> 00:34:05.880 get the four Multiplicity boy, and then you get Ray Kroc the next one. 478 00:34:06.000 --> 00:34:08.199 Up Here is the reason why I wanted to do the podcast, this 479 00:34:08.280 --> 00:34:14.239 specific topic, and it had nothing to do with the rest of everything on 480 00:34:14.320 --> 00:34:20.880 here. Yea. And that is Eminem's turning down ET saying that we did 481 00:34:20.920 --> 00:34:27.199 not want our Eminem candies in your movies because we don't want to be associated 482 00:34:27.239 --> 00:34:30.559 with aliens. Do you think, like, how many hours after the premiere 483 00:34:30.679 --> 00:34:35.559 do you think that they regretted this and not only that think of how Rezy 484 00:34:35.639 --> 00:34:40.280 Pieces stepped forward, took this role and became just an iconic candy because of 485 00:34:40.280 --> 00:34:44.960 this movie. Yeah, they made a massive mistake. Also, let me 486 00:34:44.960 --> 00:34:51.320 point this out, Eminem's is owned by the Mars Company, and Mars did 487 00:34:51.360 --> 00:34:55.400 not want to be associated with Aliens. Also, good work by Billy putting 488 00:34:55.440 --> 00:35:00.519 that as number one, number one mistake. This was the reason why I 489 00:35:00.599 --> 00:35:04.840 wanted to do the podcast. I guess it's over now. Yeah, that's 490 00:35:04.880 --> 00:35:10.000 it, all right. Claire Danes turned down the role of Rose Dewitz in 491 00:35:10.239 --> 00:35:15.639 Titanic. He hear me out of this one. Yeah, bear with me. 492 00:35:16.039 --> 00:35:22.280 The scene in the car would have been much less inspired if it was 493 00:35:22.320 --> 00:35:27.440 Claire Danes's nipple. I will let everyone else interpret that as they will. 494 00:35:28.000 --> 00:35:32.519 The movie was better. Sarah Michelle Gellar turned down the role of Claire Horowitz 495 00:35:34.159 --> 00:35:37.880 and Clueless Scheduling because she was on a soap opera at the time. All 496 00:35:37.880 --> 00:35:42.400 my children that she really want out on that one. So I'm gonna say, 497 00:35:42.440 --> 00:35:45.039 good for them, good for them, or I mean that's kind of 498 00:35:45.079 --> 00:35:47.320 a I mean, she obviously went on to become Buffy, but yeah, 499 00:35:47.440 --> 00:35:52.039 that's a that was she she got Buffy and still and I know what she 500 00:35:52.079 --> 00:35:55.159 did last summer, and I know she eventually became the it girl, But 501 00:35:55.239 --> 00:36:01.199 this movie made Alicia Silverstone the yet girl. Essen No, like she got 502 00:36:01.199 --> 00:36:06.400 Batman forever out of it. Oh my god, Batman would have been first 503 00:36:06.400 --> 00:36:10.840 off Home and Robin. Imagine if you swapped this out where now she's gonna 504 00:36:10.840 --> 00:36:15.960 be bat girl and she is in back to the Past with Brendan Frasier. 505 00:36:15.239 --> 00:36:20.519 Frazier. Sorry, I don't think she thinks she made a mistake there. 506 00:36:20.880 --> 00:36:23.679 Okay, well, I'm gonna go win win good for them. How about 507 00:36:23.679 --> 00:36:28.280 win win, because Alicia Silverstone's great in that movie. Win. Yep, 508 00:36:28.360 --> 00:36:34.800 you're right, winwy Vigo Mortenston whatever it is, turned down the role of 509 00:36:34.880 --> 00:36:40.639 Wolverine in the X Men franchise because he did not want to be committing to 510 00:36:40.719 --> 00:36:44.920 a series of movies. And then he took Lord of the Rings, so 511 00:36:44.960 --> 00:36:47.199 that was really confusing. That's a win win. He got Lord of the 512 00:36:47.239 --> 00:36:51.800 Rings, we got Hugh Jackman. Michelle Peiffer turned down the role of Clarice 513 00:36:52.079 --> 00:36:57.920 Starling and she said that I was trepidacious. There was so much evil in 514 00:36:57.960 --> 00:37:00.360 that film. It was that evil one in the end, and at the 515 00:37:00.480 --> 00:37:05.840 end of the film, Evil ruled out and I was uncomfortable with that ending 516 00:37:07.079 --> 00:37:09.760 as much as I love pfif first and maybe I would have been the one 517 00:37:09.920 --> 00:37:15.480 throwing the come. I'm glad that Jodie Foster got that role. Julia Roberts 518 00:37:15.519 --> 00:37:19.440 turned down the role of Annie Reid and Sleepless in Seattle, And before I 519 00:37:19.480 --> 00:37:22.480 do anything else, because this is a giant paragraph that I'm not going to 520 00:37:22.559 --> 00:37:27.960 read, I've never seen this movie. Meg Ryan is perfect in that role. 521 00:37:28.320 --> 00:37:32.280 I think Julia Roberts doesn't bring the same thing that Meg Ryan does. 522 00:37:32.480 --> 00:37:37.360 So movie was better off. Movie was better off. And finally, the 523 00:37:37.679 --> 00:37:43.760 final actress to turn down a movie role, and that is Amanda Seafreed, 524 00:37:43.800 --> 00:37:49.920 who turned down the role of Gomorrah and Guardians of the Galaxy, saying, 525 00:37:50.079 --> 00:37:53.400 I didn't want to be part of the first Marvel movie that bombed. Who 526 00:37:53.440 --> 00:37:58.960 wants to see a movie about a talking tree in Raccoon, which is clearly 527 00:37:59.000 --> 00:38:04.760 wrong. I was very wrong. Clearly she made a huge mistake. Also, 528 00:38:04.920 --> 00:38:07.480 her of the wide eye would have fit the Gomrah character very well. 529 00:38:07.559 --> 00:38:09.760 You know what, she would have been great as Mantis. She would have 530 00:38:09.800 --> 00:38:14.800 been a good mantis as well. Yeah, that's that's a massive regret on 531 00:38:15.159 --> 00:38:16.519 her part for sure, and she kind of admitted it there. She's like, 532 00:38:16.719 --> 00:38:20.239 yeah, I was kind of stupid at the time. I should fucked 533 00:38:20.280 --> 00:38:22.239 up. All right, Mac, do you see anything on the board, 534 00:38:22.239 --> 00:38:23.920 because I'm pretty happy with how we've teared these that you would like to move, 535 00:38:24.039 --> 00:38:29.679 staple, stamp, remove, delete from existence. I'd like the three 536 00:38:29.719 --> 00:38:31.440 hole punch, the whole thing. No, I'm good with everything. Yeah, 537 00:38:31.440 --> 00:38:35.280 I'm pretty good. So Mac, how about you just quickly read off 538 00:38:35.400 --> 00:38:37.079 if you can see the screen? Yeah, I'm I'm further away. It's 539 00:38:37.079 --> 00:38:40.840 so much tougher. I can't see anything, Okay, so I will do 540 00:38:42.000 --> 00:38:45.119 my best with what I can see. Why don't we just screenshot it and 541 00:38:45.159 --> 00:38:47.679 tweet it out instead. We are going to do that, but let me 542 00:38:47.800 --> 00:38:52.119 do I've made a huge mistake. I think I can read these. If 543 00:38:52.159 --> 00:38:54.800 Billy can scroll in a little bit further, that'd be great. But et 544 00:38:55.480 --> 00:39:02.000 Eminem's turning down et Mars Candy not wanting to be associated with Aliens, Will 545 00:39:02.039 --> 00:39:08.280 Smith turning down Neo, Christina Applegate turning down l Wood from not stealing Harvard. 546 00:39:08.280 --> 00:39:14.400 That's a different movie. That's the best. And Tom Green movie, 547 00:39:14.800 --> 00:39:17.559 Sean Connery turning down four hundred and fifty million dollars, Lord of the Rings 548 00:39:17.559 --> 00:39:22.920 money, Tom Selleck, Magnum p I Contract over Indiana Jones. The next 549 00:39:22.920 --> 00:39:25.280 one, I just flat cancy, so I'm just gonna skip it. Molly 550 00:39:27.360 --> 00:39:30.639 is Ian McKellen as Dumbledore. There we go Molly Ringwall turning down, Pretty 551 00:39:30.679 --> 00:39:37.639 Woman, Charlie Harnum, Charlie, Charlie Harnum, Charlie Hunnam, fifty shades 552 00:39:37.679 --> 00:39:44.440 of Gray. Then we have Gwyneth Paltrow for Titanic, Mel Gibson for Gladiator, 553 00:39:44.480 --> 00:39:46.679 Michael Keaton turning down. I was about to say, what about Bob. 554 00:39:46.719 --> 00:39:51.159 I'm all over the place with these movies right now, groundhog Day, 555 00:39:51.280 --> 00:39:54.840 and then finally Amanda Sea Freed turning down Gomorrah. Yeah. By the way, 556 00:39:54.880 --> 00:40:00.199 the photo of Julia Robertson this absolutely electric smile there. That's how she 557 00:40:00.280 --> 00:40:04.039 made her money. It's the smile. There was a point on this earth 558 00:40:04.320 --> 00:40:07.639 that she was the hottest female walking it. It was the part and pretty 559 00:40:07.679 --> 00:40:10.000 Woman. I'm just gonna take this down. It's too much of our screen. 560 00:40:10.320 --> 00:40:15.280 It was the Part and Pretty Woman. When Richard gere clamped down the 561 00:40:15.320 --> 00:40:17.800 box and she gave that laugh, and you're like, you know what, 562 00:40:19.199 --> 00:40:24.480 America's sweetheart and and right there, So go on Twitter, tell us what 563 00:40:24.599 --> 00:40:37.199 you think our biggest mistake is from this episode. Let's get into Max and 564 00:40:37.360 --> 00:40:39.840 maxa could be anything. It could be a boat. Mac. We are 565 00:40:39.880 --> 00:40:45.760 through six episodes of AHSKA. How you doing so the most recent episode spoiler 566 00:40:45.800 --> 00:40:49.519 alert here. If you haven't seen episode six, just skipped to the end 567 00:40:49.519 --> 00:40:54.320 of the podcast, or stop listening. We got Thrown and Ezra finally in 568 00:40:54.360 --> 00:40:59.800 the latest episode, and it was super cool to see them live on live 569 00:40:59.800 --> 00:41:04.400 action for the first time. It's pretty clear to me right now that the 570 00:41:04.519 --> 00:41:07.239 end of this season is going to be like a cliffhanger. You know, 571 00:41:07.320 --> 00:41:10.199 they sort of discussed this, how Feloni's movie is going to tie up the 572 00:41:10.239 --> 00:41:15.920 story from this in Mandalorian in the movie it's setting up. However, I 573 00:41:15.960 --> 00:41:19.920 think for an exciting last couple episodes. We have a Soca on the way 574 00:41:20.079 --> 00:41:24.400 that other universe that they're in with the whales we have we don't know. 575 00:41:24.679 --> 00:41:30.119 They haven't revealed anything about Ezra yet, what like if he's still been wielding 576 00:41:30.159 --> 00:41:35.079 the Force or whatnot. But Ezra is a pretty powerful force user. We 577 00:41:35.159 --> 00:41:39.639 also find out Ezra, I mean Thron has been working with the Night Sisters, 578 00:41:39.639 --> 00:41:44.760 so he has some some magic to play with there. And I thought 579 00:41:44.760 --> 00:41:49.840 one of the coolest parts of the episode was seeing Thron's Stormtroopers and how they're 580 00:41:49.880 --> 00:41:55.480 like beaten and battered, and it almost looks like there's a possibility where all 581 00:41:55.559 --> 00:42:00.519 of these Stormtroopers had died and they've been reanimated by the Night Sisters. I 582 00:42:00.559 --> 00:42:02.960 think that's in play as well. I know. It's just everything looks really 583 00:42:04.000 --> 00:42:07.239 cool right now, but we need some stuff to happen in the final couple 584 00:42:07.239 --> 00:42:12.000 episodes because the last two haven't been a whole lot of happening story wise. 585 00:42:12.000 --> 00:42:15.960 Obviously we've got the cool Ahsoka Anakin stuff at episode five, but not much 586 00:42:16.000 --> 00:42:20.679 has happened story wise these last two episodes. So two things here, maybe 587 00:42:20.800 --> 00:42:24.360 three. Number one, I love those little tortoise fellas, Yeah, teenage 588 00:42:24.400 --> 00:42:30.159 alien Ninja turtles. I like those a lot. This show looks awesome. 589 00:42:30.760 --> 00:42:34.599 It does. It looks especially the last like three episodes, it has just 590 00:42:34.760 --> 00:42:39.880 looked amazing. But I feel like I'm missing something still. I wish someone 591 00:42:40.000 --> 00:42:45.599 told me before this show started to watch the other two shows leading into it, 592 00:42:47.440 --> 00:42:51.480 No, no doubt about it. If you'd never watched Clone Wars or 593 00:42:51.480 --> 00:42:54.360 Rebels, there's a piece of this emotionally that you're just not getting. Like 594 00:42:54.679 --> 00:43:00.960 that scene in the in the in the last episode with Ezra and Sabine reuniting 595 00:43:00.079 --> 00:43:04.960 lost awesome. Yeah, lost on me, ye lost on someone that did 596 00:43:04.960 --> 00:43:08.719 not watch Rebels. I am emotionally disconnected from so much of this. Yeah, 597 00:43:08.800 --> 00:43:14.079 I believe that, and I totally understand that. But also thrown walking 598 00:43:14.159 --> 00:43:19.719 through all those Stormtroopers looked fucking cool. It was great Episode five, That 599 00:43:19.800 --> 00:43:23.599 whole Clone Wars thing looked fucking cool. Now, do you have a level 600 00:43:23.639 --> 00:43:28.199 of regret? Have you made a huge mistake by not watching Clone Wars and 601 00:43:28.239 --> 00:43:30.159 Rebels? Mistakes in my life? I don't think I would put it that 602 00:43:30.280 --> 00:43:39.119 high stars like viewing media, viewing media and podcast preparation, or you know, 603 00:43:39.679 --> 00:43:45.440 trying to enjoy something. I guess minorly, I guess a little bit. 604 00:43:45.960 --> 00:43:47.679 All right, I feel like you've made a huge mistake, Like, 605 00:43:47.800 --> 00:43:51.880 hey, time is of the essence, my man, I don't really have 606 00:43:51.960 --> 00:43:55.519 that much of it.
