Quantum Recast: Your Favorite Films, Recast In Different Years

Cory sets us on a crash course to 1996, but it seems we're being hunted. In defense, we do the only thing we know to do...build a team of actors to be the prey of our hunter! 

Will our new 1996 cast be bulky heavy hitters, or made up of everyman action heroes?  Who is this Predator? And who is falling in love with whom? Enter the jungle and find out!

Drink up me hearties, yo ho! Whatever that means…

This week we chase the horizon all the way back to 1983 to recast Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl.

Can we find a suitable 80’s replacement to fill Jack Sparrow’s tricorn hat? Can Tanner stand up to Cory, a real life Jack Sparrow, in an A-list ridden blockbuster franchise taken back to the 1980’s? Will Nick know any of the British comedians that are brought up?!

Come hang out with us to answer these burning questions, and make your day alright, alright, alright.

On this episode, we finally take you to a galaxy far far away… to potentially change/ruin everything! Nick has chosen to move the original ‘Star Wars’ forty years into the future, from 1977 to 2017!

Hang onto your seat as the takes are hot, as are our hosts about certain casting choices. It all comes to a head as we dare to ask the question: What does a world without Star Wars look like?

May the Force be with you.

On this episode, we line up the pins and head down the lane back to 1982, to recast the Coen Bros  ultimate classic, 1998's The Big Lebowski!

You’ve seen Justice League. You’ve seen Zack Snyder’s Justice League.
But you haven’t seen either of them in 1986! This week we take Superman and company back to 1986 to see what a 4-hour Justice League movie would look like in the 80’s! Mainly we just think the hair will be bigger.

Hello Seattle! This episode, Tanner drags the boys all the way back to 1969 in hopes of finding a cast that he recognizes, and has a meet cute with some historic firsts along the way. Nick talks, and sings, about ‘Making Whoopee’, Cory forces us to think about the modern day Rom-Com and how realistic they really are, and Tanner crowns our very first ‘King of Seattle Cinema’, but not before he curses out a Best Picture Oscar winner!

This episode, Nick directs the gang to take a shot at recasting Casablanca (1942) in 1991, right in the middle of the noir resurgence. And, boy, it's a trip! Tanner and Cory's casts blow Nick's mind; we’ll let YOU decide for better or for worse. Nick hosts a new game that shows just how little we know about Casablanca's cultural influence. Tanner and Cory bring up several important questions about war propaganda, Humphrey Bogart propaganda, and what "Here's looking at you, kid" actually means.
