Jeff & Paul
Two movie nerds imagining classic and upcoming films with the best and brightest stars of today. Check out our other podcast: Ten Things with Jeff & Paul!
It's insane to look back at Young Guns and see six kids in their 20s playing cowboy in the wild west, and know that some of them have grown up to be huge, huge Hollywood stars. Emilio Estevez, Charlie Sheen, Kiefer Sutherland, Lou Diamond Phillips, and Dermot Mulroney all got pretty big breaks from starring in 1988's Young Guns. But who would maybe get some of those same big breaks if we cast a re-make of Young Guns today, 32 years later? Tune in to today's episode to find out!

Arguably the greatest debut film of all time, Quentin Tarantino's 1992 masterpiece Reservoir Dogs began the reputation that Tarantino would develop over the next three decades for incredibly insightful and specific casting. It feels nearly impossible to imagine these characters played by anyone else, as they leap off the screen not as performances but as whole human beings. Nevertheless, Paul and Jeff are not to be deterred, never ones to shrink from a challenge. So come and listen along as they sort through the best and brightest actors working today for eight men who could be... Reservoir Dogs.

Listen in to hear our picks for the cast and let us know on twitter whose cast you prefer!
