Flopcast 683: The 1983 Movie Recasting Movie Character Movie Game

Flopcast episode 683! As our 1980s-themed episodes roll along, we return to the weird movie game we played a few weeks ago. But this time we're looking at the movies of 1983. So we're yanking characters from randomly-selected movies, shoving them into different movies, and seeing what happens. Our participants are characters from Return of the Jedi, National Lampoon's Vacation, Superman III, Flashdance, and many more. Including... D.C. Cab. So yeah, that means Mr. T might get involved. And he already pities all of us.

The Wikipedia entry on Irene Cara states, "As a child, Cara recorded a Spanish-language record for the Latin market and an English-language Christmas album". Rest assured, if by any chance the songs are available online, we will find them.
