Supreme Stars, part 1

In the spirit of ongoing awesomeness that this blog personifies, here's part one of a two-part series about which hollywood star would be best to play each SC justice, if some network wanted to reenact court proceedings, the way E! did with the last Michael Jackson trial. I tried to pick actors with at least a passing resemblence. I also claim all rights associated with this great idea, you saw it here first. Forgive the formatting, I'm sure it'll turn out terrible, but I can't do html for shit. (hints?)

John Roberts..................... Bill Pullman
......
Roberts needs someone strong and sexy like Bill Pullman to play him. Bill's got experience playing leader, he was the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES in Independence Day, for crying out loud. He'd do Roberts proud, and he's got the look.


Ruth Bader-Ginsburg................ Jennifer Grey
.........
Of course, it would have to be the 1980s, Ferris Bueller, Dirty Dancing, pre-nose-job Jennifer Grey. Gotta love that nose. Much like ol' RBG, she's got the spunk to stand up to the men, maybe because of their New York city roots. Oh, and they also both graduated with the highest grades in the history of Columbia Law School.


Samuel Alito..........................Chazz Palminteri
.........
I don't really know much about Scalito, other than he's skeezy, and may or may not have some mob ties (due to the fact that he's italian american of course). He's best played by another semi-unknown, therefore Chazz, who always has bit parts as a gangster. They're both ugly men who scare me, what else do you want?

Stephen Breyer...........................Chevy Chase
.......
Just look at this goofy guy, Chevy would be perfect! Breyer believes in deference to the legislature, and is somewhat leftwing, and Chevy once played a golfer in Caddyshack. Perfect match!

Stay tuned for part two, guaranteed to be even more ridiculous. Who do you think should play Thomas?
