The Results Are In: Recast Fast Times at Ridgemont High

Oct 2 2007 - 2:25pm

Every Wednesday on BuzzSugar, I post a Recast challenge [0], where I ask you to choose new actors for a classic TV show or movie. The reader who submits the best cast wins a BuzzSugar t-shirt!

Fast Times at Ridgemont High [0] has some fantastic characters, which makes it super fun to recast. This week's recast lists were great — from WhiplashGirlchild [1]'s ideas of Joseph Gordon-Levitt playing Brad and Hugh Laurie playing Mr. Hand, to hanako66 [2]'s suggestion of Topher Grace for the part of the slimy Mike. I also thought Seth Rogen would make a great Brad, as was suggested by several people. Tnkrbelli [3] included photos with her recast list, which was very cool. I especially liked her idea of Emile Hirsch playing Jeff Spicoli. He could easily pull off that dazed thing.

Overall, though, my favorite recast list this week comes from joielin [4]! To see who joielin picked, along with a new cast photo,

joielin's cast:
Stacy — Alison Lohman
Linda — Megan Fox
Mark/"Rat" — Michael Cera
Mike — Milo Ventimiglia
Brad — Ben Savage
Mr. Hand — Wallace Shawn
Spicoli — Shia LaBeouf
