Mean Girls Trouble in Detention based on Lord of the Flies

1a) Lindsey Lohan as Ralph

1b) I would cast Lindsey Lohan as Ralph because of her role in Mean Girls; she played Cady Heron. The reason I would cast her as Ralph is because of the part when she performed to the song Jingle Bell Rocks I think that showed leadership quality just like Ralph. Another reason I would cast Lohan as Ralph is because of her role in Parent Trap when she was younger she played the role of a devious twin very well. She also played in Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen and I thought that role reminded me of Ralph because when she played the role of Lola Cepp she was not afraid to be different and she wanted to get away from where she was just like Ralph wanted to be rescued from the island.



2a) Rachel McAdams as Jack

2b) I would definitely cast Rachel McAdams as Jack in my movie because of her awesome role as Regina George in Mean Girls of course. Just like Jack she was determined to have everyone be under her. While she was the most powerful girl in school just like Jack wanted to be chief so badly. She also played a very manipulative role which I think would be very good for Jack. Lastly I think she should play the role of Jack because she is a good leader but just not a very nice leader like Ralph.

3a) Daniel Franzese as Piggy

3b) The reason I would cast Daniel Franzese as Piggy is mainly because of the role he did as Damian in the movie Mean Girls. I thought that he was very humorous in that role and like Piggy people kind of ignored him; he was a tag along sort of. People picked on him, no one took him seriously, and he was kinda chunky so that's a plus. I thought these were all good qualities for playing the role of Piggy in my movie.
4a) Lizzy Caplan as Simon

4b) The reason I would cast Lizzy Caplan as Simon is because in the movie Mean Girls she played the role of Janis very well. She was like the typical goth outcast and she would come up with clever ideas. She was kind of doing her own little thing in the movie not belonging to any "lunch table". I think that she would play a great Simon for those reasons.



5a) Lacey Chabert as Roger
5b) I think that Lacey Chabert would play a great Roger. I think this because in the movie Mean Girls she played Gretchen Wieners. In the movie her role was to be the sidekick of Regina George. I also picked her because she would do so many things to please Regina. That reminded me of Roger because he as well would do anything to please Jack because Roger was like Jack's right hand man in the story.


6) In my new version of the Lord of the Flies I would use the "Burn Book" as my "Beastie" because all of the girls in the movie Mean Girls were afraid to say they wrote the "Burn Book". Plus the whole Burn Book as the "Beastie" goes along with my whole Mean Girls theme mixed with Lord of the Flies.

7a) The setting of my remake of Lord of the Flies would be in a classroom.
7b) I would also make a few changes to my story. The first thing I would change is I would keep the names they had on the movie Mean Girls. Second thing I would change is that I would have them trapped in detention with the "Beastie" (Burn Book) and they were trapped there over night. Until someone confessed they wrote the Burn Book. The last thing I would change is like the movie Mean Girls I would make the story funny.
8) Instead of my movie being Lord of the Flies I would definitely change the title of my movie; Considering my whole Mean Girls theme the title of my movie would be Mean Girls Trouble in Detention.
