NO!
NO NO NO FUCKING NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Frankie Four Fingers, The Grinch, and Spicolli?


Try this -

Moe - Ethan Sandler

Curly - Greg Valentine
OR
Curly - Jim Norton

Larry Fine - David Faustino


Or go with the cast of the movie -
Paul Ben-Victor ... Moe Howard
Evan Handler ... Larry Fine
John Kassir ... Shemp Howard
Michael Chiklis ... Jerome 'Curly' Howard
Peter Callan ... Joe DeRita
Laurence Coy ... Joe Besser
------
Moe was 5'4", Del Toro is 6'2".
Curly was 5'5", Carrey is 6'1½".
Larry was 5'4", Penn is 5'9".
------

Waterworld, Ishtar, Heaven's Gate.......

If there's one thing I'm sure of, it's tough to find a good Moe.

I almost cried when I saw the Stooges movie. When they screwed over Curly, and Chiklis gave that speech.
