My predictions for the movie version: Janet Reno will be played by Kathy Bates, Marisleysis will be played by Cameron Diaz, Juan Gonzales will be played by Antonio Banderas. I'm not sure about Arnold as the lead commando -- I'm thinking Bruce Willis. There will be a cameo by Marisa Tomei as Elian's mother (who returns to the child in a vision immediately before the door gets broken in by the feds). Another supporting role for Catherine Zeta-Jones, because she already played a Latin in Zorro, and she's just too beautiful NOT to include in the cast. If Anthony Quinn were still around, he could play Castro; but he's not, so I guess we'll have to bring Anthony Hopkins back for one more shot as a psychopathic genius (so there will be support for the subplot which has Castro trying to bribe Clinton with a box of fine Cuban cigars). The soundtrack album will lead off with a power ballad by Aerosmith. Remember, you heard it here first.
