You know what, The Hustler is a really good movie! I think it's high time that they should do it again, you know, as a remake, or a sequel? Yeah I know - The Color of Money - you don't have to tell me that. But that was more about Tom Cruise. They should come back with it again, only this time with the focus square on the Paul Newman character, except, as a twist they should instead of casting Paul Newman, they should cast that other guy that I always used to get confused with Paul Newman, way back in each of their "middle periods." You know the guy, he was in Stakeout? That would be a cool twist, that guy doesn't get enough chance to show what he can do. He was pretty good in Stakeout.
Once you get to part 3 of anything, you want a little twist in there. Speaking of which, aren't we about due for Stakeout 3: Yet Another Stakeout? Because if we are, try this little bit of a curveball on for size, casting-advice wise: get Paul Newman. Get him, to play the title role. I think it's the title role. That's his name, right?
"Freeze! Detective John Stakeout, LAPD!"
Actually I don't know if it was set in L.A. or what. That was just for example. Also, I don't think the cops really shout their whole name when it's "Freeze!"-time. But you know what I mean. Whether you're trying to get someone to freeze, or to go see your part 3 sequel, sometimes it's that little unexpected twist that can make all the difference.
A splash of the unusual!
