Tobey Maguire as Rick Blaine in Casablanca.

Dustin Hoffman. Or Jack Nicholson.
Gone With the Wind recast:
Sarah Michelle Gellar as Scarlett
Clay Aiken as Ashley
Al Pacino as Rhett Butler
Wanda Sykes as Mammy
Chris Rock as Pork
Sanjaya as Prissy
Scarlett: I’m going to Atlanta to get that money and I’ve gotta go looking like a queen.
Mammy: Whatever, I’m free. I don’t give a damn. Pick me up a light saber bong if you go by The Junkman’s Daughter*. (*popular head/kitsch shop in ATL)
Rhett: Oh, I really don’t think you’re gonna lock me out Scarlett… oh hoo-wah, I know you’re not going to lock me out!
[after Rhett carries Scarlett upstairs the camera stops on the door]
Scarlett: Let me say hello to your little friend!
Rhett: Hoo-wah! You know how to hurt a man, honeybun!
Scarlett: A Yankee… in Tara… hey, how bout we have a martial arts style ass kicking right here in this old ruined plantation house?! (proceeds to make it happen)
Prissy: Why’d you slap me? Was it for saying I could birth a baby when I couldn’t?
Scarlett: No, it was for what you were doing to that Negro spiritual. Good God do you just not even know what melody is?
Prissy: I thought she was the one having the baby… Ow! Why’d you slap me that time?
Scarlett: Pork, I want you to have Papa’s gold watch… but I can’t find it. I know he had it on him when he got on the horse…
Pork: Yeah, how about that. I didn’t see it anywhere on him when I went through his pockets after the fall. Say, what’s a freedman gotta do to get a rib around here?
Scarlett: Oh Ashley Ashley Ashley… tell me you love me and I’ll live on it forever!
Ashley: I… I… really like you Scarlett. Say, when’s Rhett coming back?
STAR WARS
Redd Foxx as Fred Sanford as Obi Wan Kenobi in STAR WARS
“Your daddy left you his light saber. But I sold it.”
Stormtrooper: We will search this vehicle and…
Obi: These aren’t the droids you’re looking for…
Stormtrooper: These aren’t the droids you’re looking for…
Obi: Personally, I think you’re a fruitcake…
Stormtrooper: I think I’m a fruitcake.
Obi: And would I be sure… if I didn’t care…
Stormtrooper: And would I be sure… if I didn’t care…
Luke: POP! Cut it out! It was funny the first few times.
Johnny Depp as Keith Richards as Jack Sparrow as Obi Wan Kenobi in Return of the Sith
Y’know… abandoning Padme was… well you’ve got other problems to deal with so I’ll stay out of your private life. When you killed the Jedi you didn’t happen to pick up their space-rum did you?
Jim Carrey IS … the Terminator!
Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton in The Miracle Worker.
"Wait, which one of us is the retard again? Okay… “Woggle oggle boggle woggle…”
The Princess Bride:
Tom Cruise as Westley
Ally Sheedy as Buttercup
Robin Williams as Prince Humperdink
Billy Crystal as Count Rogan
Verne Troyer as Fezzig (always shot from ground up, to appear taller…)
Carlos Mencia as Inigo Montoya
Woody Allen as Vencini
Tobey Maguire and Mary Kate Olsen as Miracle Max and Valeri
Julie Kavner in Body Heat
Rosalind Russell in The Nun’s Story
Bob Hope and Bing Crosby in Pulp Fiction
Lauren BeCall as Nellie in South Pacific
Tom Arnold in Papillion
Sam Waterston in the Peter O’Toole role in The Ruling Class
It is my opinion that three actors can damn well play anything they please including cameos as each other: Judi Dench, Meryl Streep and Billy Bob Thornton. I once spotted Billy Bob disguised as Jackson Hole, Wyoming in an art film.
Yeah, but you have to admit that Lauren Graham did an excellent job as the French Quarter.
You know, I just happened to watch The Ruling Class last night. I can actually see this working if the director made Wooden Sam chug a triple espresso before every scene.
Danny DeVito as the Terminator.
Jack Nickolson as The Mask. It might actually work out good, but it would sure be a different kind of movie.
Christopher Walken as Gandhi.
Roseanne Barr is the Bride in Kill Bill.
Jim Carrey as Emperor Palpatine
Bobcat Goldthwait in pretty much any role mentioned in this thread.
Stellllla!
Good stuff, y’all. Here’s a new batch of roles to recast:

Elizabeth Taylor in A Place in the Sun
Jane Russell in The Outlaw (have you seen this?)

And how about some of the other franchise roles?
Charles Bronson in the Death Wish group
Peter Sellers in the Inspector Clouseau things
Rock Hudson and Doris Day in their stuff
Cheetah in the Tarzan movies…
Just think of how many people could deliver that line with a personal touch:
Gilbert Gottfried
Henny Youngman
Bob Hope
Jerry Lewis
Mel Blanc
Jackie Gleason
Dennis Weaver
Charlie Weaver
Charlie Callas
Maria Callas
Carol Channing
Ed Sullivan
I’ll never hear the AFLAC commercials the same way again.
“I have always depended upon the supplemental insurance of strangers!”
Hey, listen! You’ve just come up with a great thread concept: commercial spokespersons/voices that need (or could be funnier if) other celebrities were inserted. If you’re game, why not start such a thread.
Some ideas:
Mr. Clean
Billy Mays (that screaming Oxyclean idiot)
Head On
Geico’s Gecko
Allstate (who could replace Haysbert)
I bet you could get a list of 20 before slowing down.
Mel Brooks is Citizen Kane.
Also starring:
Owen Wilson as Jed Leland
Keanu Reeves as Jerry Thompson
Eddie Izzard as Agnes Morehead as Mary Kane
I’m game, but fact is, you came up with the idea. I’d feel dirty* stealing it.
- Okay, dirtier than I usually feel.
Well, you have my blessings to go for it. I start too many threads like that anyway. 
Well, he and “Ahnaud” are twins…

Freddie Prinze Jr and Sarah Michele Gellar in their stuff
Triumph, the insult comic dog in the Tarzan movies…
Paul Reubens in Road Warrior
Mike Myers and Mike Myers-with-a-menacing-accent in Shane
Danny Devito in Walking Tall

The Late Anna Nicole Smith in edited footage in The Outlaw
Queen Latifah and Will Ferrell in Samson and Delilah
Linda Hunt as Nurse Ratched in One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest

Ashton Kutcher and Kathy Bates in Hudson/Day stuff (with Joseph Gordon Levitt in the Tony Randall role)
