How would this work out?

I thought of the following people...

Jonah Hill-Craig
Michael Cera - Smokey
Megan Fox - Debbie
Brock Lesnar- Debo
William Shatner - Mr. Jones
Kathy Bates - Mrs. Jones
Mila Kunis- Dana
Ashley Tisdale - Joi
Kevin James - Big Worm
DJ Qualls - Red
Britney Spears - Felisha
Ellen Degeneres- Joann (Smokey's mom)
Kenny G - Stanley
Angelina Jolie - Mrs. Parker
Verne Troyer - Mr. Parker
Eminem -Ezal
Laz Alonso - Hector
Justin Bieber - Lil Chris
Vince Vaughn - Pastor Clever
Steven Spielberg - Man sweeping in liquor store (the role F. Gary Gray had)
Nikki Blonski - Rita
Michael Caine- Red's Father

    As outrageous as it sounds i might be interested in watching something like that. if they will be in the same or similar situations and/or dialogue as the original. i think i would be dying from hilarity. but it would be due more to me laughing at them than with them. sort of like reverse coonery if u will. in this case, crackers will be tap dancing for us versus the other way around. watching highly regarded actors like kathy bates, michael caine, and william shatner shook and jive for the camera, michael cera shouthing "you got knocked the ? out" would all be highly memorable moments

    I gotta admit, seeing William Shatner say, "You ain't gotta worry about being no dogcatcher, you gotta worry about a dog catchin' yo' ass!", would be pretty damn funny.

    I'd go see this just for the prospect of him doing John Witherspoon's dialogue.
