I think Mark would probably be best for the Mad Milkman, and Adrian as the homosexual priest with powerful kung-fu.

Seriously, what the hell do you want me to do? Try to hire some actors, or accept that, at your age and experience level, you probably have to make do with your mates.

If your only option is friends then only select the ones who are passionate or interested about it otherwise you'll just be dealing with moaners when you come to shoot. Hold a casting session, get them to read for all the parts they could fill don't just assign roles. They have to be comfortable infront of the camera and understand the filming process, its long, it repetative but its FUN.

Hah. Is that based on anything?

It's your movie you cast your friends as you see appropriate or you get out there and find ppl who are willing to act, friends of friends, neighbors, that girl that's out of your league at your school, the janitor whatever ask around.
