If you are at all like us, you've been toggling back and forth between the Olympics and hard-hitting political shows, speculating on who the presidential candidates will choose as their running mates. And by hard-hitting political shows, what we really mean is Conan. And by speculating, we mean making jokes.



Enjoy look-alikes? Check out our casting for "Mike Tyson's Punchout" the Movie:

Mike Tyson's Punchout' The Movie

    Glass Joe / Owen Wilson

    Fortunately, Owen Wilson's nose already has that broken look, saving him hours in the makeup chair.

    Von Kaiser / Daniel Day-Lewis

    Von Kaiser will drink Little Mac's milkshake. He'll drink it up!

    Little Mac / Tom Cruise

    We got two words for anyone that thinks Tom Cruise is too old to play the lead in a boxing flick, "Rocky Balboa."

    Doc Louis / Reginald Veljohnson

    This will be a breakout role for Reginald Veljohnson, perhaps the first time in his film career he won't be playing an affable cop. Maybe we can make him an ex cop.

    Piston Honda / Ralph Macchio

    Ralph Macchio has been waiting for this role for 20 years.

    Don Flamenco / Adam Sandler

    Adam Sandler was born to play a flamboyant Spanish boxer. It's a lot more believable than him being a football player, anyway.

    Great Tiger / Sir Ben Kingsley

    Ben Kingsley will bring the same meditative presence to the role of Great Tiger that he did to Gandhi.

    King Hippo / George 'The Animal' Steele

    Since King Hippo's character is most likely based on George "The Animal" Steele, it seemed like casting him in the movie was a necessary meta-twist, kind of like when Keith Richards showed up in the third "Pirates" film.

    Soda Popinski / Bowler Hat Guy

    Bowler Hat Guy from "Meet the Robinsons" will be the CGI comic relief that everyone will hate as much as Jar Jar Binks.

    Bald Bull / Charles Barkley

    Much like Bald Bull, Charles Barkley is beloved by fans both for his prowess and trash talking.
