I'm hitting a roadblock here. We need to find two batshit crazy actresses to play Pam and Bobolink.  But who?  Wynona Ryder as Bobo the Hobo might work if she was 30 years older. But Pam? That's a real head-scratcher.

Janeanne Garafolo. There's got to be a role for her.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

Sean Penn has to be in there, maybe a Sandusky role ? Too soon ?

But he's got the look. Look at him with his glasses on and imagine him wearing a skin cap. A good acting coach can teach him to play crazy. Or the director can just dose him up with some mind-altering drugs.

The primitives, being narcissists, used to post lots and lots of photographs of themselves (or allegedly of themselves), some of which are classics.

But for some reason, the primitives don't do as much of that anymore.

I suspect it has something to do with their growing older, and their looks deteriorating, and they're too embarrassed to put them up any more.

Who could Sean Penn play? There has to be a role for him!  His acting range of stoners, gangsters and teh ghey would work for any number of the idiots over there.

Taverner

Nah, I'm still going with Johnny Depp as Taverner.



Plus it takes away the Hunter S. Thompson character from Will Pittstain the Plagiarist.  Now as for the Pitt, I'm thinking Chevy Chase.  Not the funny Chevy Chase, but the drugged out raving one.  Or how about Ed Norton, or Patton Oswalt, perhaps?

I like the idea of Chumlee for OS. Or maybe even Jackie from Red State Update for OS.

I figure when DU: the movie becomes a blockbuster there could be a spin-off featuring Omaha Steve. Maybe Big Dog could convert his story to a screenplay.
