Lino's Casting Couch


So Lino and crew played Lino's Casting Couch on the show today, with the movie being about St. Paul and St. Barnabas, the missionary journey they took, and their split (which occurred when Barnabas wanted to take John Mark, who abandoned them on the first trip, on the second trip: Paul hated the idea). A lot of good suggestions, with one caller suggesting Mark Wahlberg as Paul, Matt Damon as Barnabas, and Matthew Mcconaughey as John Mark. In the end, Lino went with Joe Pesci as St. Paul, Morgan Freeman as Barnabas, and Yoko Ono as John Mark (she split up the Beatles, why not split up this team as well?). As for Fr. Jim, his choice was Wahlberg as Paul, Damon as Barnabas, and Pauly Shore as John Mark, while Maureen McMurray chose Wahlberg and Shore as well, but taking Liam Neeson for Barnabas' role.

Since this movie probably won't get made, we'll have to settle for a crudely photoshopped Movie Poster instead. Not the best quality, but oh well, it's not like I get paid to do any of this :) And how can you go wrong with giving the Peabody-winning three-time Emmy winning producer Lino Rulli top billing?
