Filler Times at Gheorghe High

So this is happening.  Whom do we think will be reading for which parts?

Morgan Freeman has to be Mr. Hand, right?
Sean Penn won't play Spicoli, right? That'd be too easy?
Is Shia LaBeouf or Dane Cook reading for Damone?
Does a table reading include the Linda pool scene?

We should do a Zoom table reading of a script we like for a Gheorghe segment. At least one scene. 

Dave and I wrote a few scripts, and one was recently unearthed two time zones away. Maybe one day we'll give it a read-through.

And I like McConaughey in there. I'd like a future movie scene where an aged Wooderson meets an aged Spicoli and they share stories.

That should be in the upcoming Bill & Ted film, which needs a G:TB review.

zman said...

Shouldn't Uncle Rico be involved in that meeting, to bring this full circle?

TR said...

Good news from my annual physical - the prostrate is fine!

And yes, all I do is think of the Fletch scene as it is happening.

good to know you can lie down, danimal

Need you guys again . . . I posted another piece on Medium. I'm really proud of this, I've never seen it before . . .

if you could go to it and clap it or whatever, maybe i'll go viral and make some cash. i made 6 cents on my last piece!

zman said...

I made it clap.

Whitney said...

Hey, Rob, Danimal goes by Danimal, not TR

rootsminer said...

Not sure what sentiment you're trying to provoke with that one Dave. If it's exasperation and despair, then you've nailed it.

TR said...

Rob confused our rectums.

Danimal said...

I was actually supposed to have my anal kay-nil scoped today but had to re-schedule.

Mark said...

I’m under no illusions it will mean anything but that Magic win today was fucking fun. What made it even more fun than your average meaningless upset is how absurdly short handed they are right now. Which is saying something because, well, they’re not very good at full strength.

zman said...

If you live in my area and you have a convertible and you aren't driving it with the top down right now you're a sucker. It's fucking glorious convertible weather.

rob said...

rolled top down yesterday. glorious, indeed.

Mark said...

My Mom has a convertible that she drives down A1A on the damn time. One day I’ll do the same.

Mark said...

Blazers aren’t going to beat the Lakers but I think it will be fun as hell watching Dame try.

TR said...

Mark - you forgot to mention the delicious irony of Fultz being the only former Sixers pick potentially playing in the second round of the playoffs. I know it’s too early for that, but it’s fun to consider.

Unrelated - I liked Caruso better when he had his bad white man’s hair.

Danimal said...

Just seeing this post and must say am pretty stoked.
Morgan Freeman as Mr. Vargas?

Mark said...

TR- I’m incredibly excited about Fultz and his progress. He looked goof today and his shot and confidence continue to progress. Getting him for basically nothing was a great move by the Orlando front office. Wish I could say the same about the Mo Bamba pick...

Whitney said...

Who plays Brad Hamilton? Jimmy Kimmel? He's more of a Mark Ratner.

FWIW, Fast Times is still one of my favorite movies of all time.

Whitney said...

From the Golden State Killer to Jam-Master Jay's murderers, the bell tolls for thee...

rob said...

pitt is hamilton. hamilton is pitt.

zman said...

There's a million things he hasn't done, but just you wait, just you wait.

zman said...

And I can't believe it's been 18 years since Jam Master Jay died.
