Episode 24 - The Thing, Let's Get MacReady To Rumble
About this episode
We are back again for another edition of Cast-A-Role, and this week we enter "Spooky Season" much to the displeasure of Jim.
To kick off this Halloween season, the boys are reviewing and recasting John Carpenter's The Thing from 1982.
The guys start this week off discussing what food should and shouldn't go on a stick, as well as whether pineapple should go on a pizza.
Jim reveals his hatred for Halloween.
Nick somehow confuses George of the Jungle with The Jungle Book!
Sam issues Jim a massive apology that sends shivers down Nick's spine as he starts to come to terms with the possibility of watching the Rebel Moon director's cuts.
Will this classic film be safe from Jim? (probably not)
For recastings this week, the guys couldn't decide on how many to recast, so have settled on just MacReady, but then served up some pitches for survival horror films, at which point Jim may have lost the plot.
And to end the episode, Audio Aperitif is back. Can Jim level the score with Nick? Or will there be yet more hijinks?
