The Rewinders Podcast

Cop finds girl... girl and cop fall in love...  girl and cop discover they have different priorities... girl and cop break up... cop and girl are still in a death spiral of attraction with each other... girl and cop get back together... meanwhile, crime is thwarted through bumbling happenstance.

And there are funny parts.

Join Joe, Ken, Andy, and Dan as they discuss The Naked Gun 2½: The Smell of Fear and determine if it still holds up.

When video games are popular, what better thing to do than to make a half-effort attempt at making a movie to cash in on it?

The 1995 Mortal Kombat follows 3 of the "good guys" characters from the video game - and their endeavor to save the world through MORTAL KOMBAT!

Is this story in line with the games... no. Do the fighting moves look as cheesy as they do in the game... yes!

Join Sonya - one of the boring characters from the game, as she is somehow thrust into a position of "importance" in the plot... which is never explained in film. Is this odd story interesting... nope. But, other things keep happening around that story to maybe keep you interested.

Also, its nice to see Christopher Lambert again - but its a little weird that he plays Rayden the lightening god who apparently rules over the Earth Realm. Rayden, according to Babynames.com is Japanese meaning "God Spirit" - so, you know... having a white dude playing the role totally makes sense.

Join Joe, Ken, Andy, and Dan as they discuss their history with the game and the movie to determine if it still holds up. Plus, bonus rebooting segment for the (at this point) upcoming Mortal Kombat film.

Are you a dad - or will you be one soon? Follow these five step to keep your child, or future child, from becoming a monster:

Step 1 - don't grease your hair as a dad

Step 2 - stop being so overly invested in sports over your family as a dad

Step 3 - do something other than verbally fight every night as a dad

Step 4 - don't always tuck your shirt in - or at least go with a French tuck if you must, as a dad

Step 5 - review if you have a clear pathway before backing your car, even if you are not a dad

Follow these simple steps and your child wont get whisked away to a pallet filled basement world where semi-adults (Maurice says he is 11, but looks like he is at least in his 20s) convince them to vote libertarian and be twits.

Join Joe, Ken, Andy, and Dan as they determine if the 1989 film Little Monsters still holds ups

The prince of Zamunda doesn't want to marry the woman arranged for him to marry and he convinces everyone to let him travel before getting hitched. What they don't realize is he plans to find his perfect queen - in Queens, New York.

Things get crazy pretty quick because our prince has never been in the outside world and is innocent to all its ways.

On the way to finding his future bride, we are introduced to numerous characters played by Eddie Murphy and Arsenio Hall (before Eddie Murphy playing multiple characters burned itself out) - Other famous actors/comedians who had not yet hit it big - and SSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUULLLLLLLLL  GLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOW!

Join Joe, Ken, Andy, and Dan as they discuss the film, and its 2021 reboot - as they determine, if the original still holds up.

A story of the life, of a man, in a place, in a time - that was of no consequence… until he was.

The Life of Brian, Monty Python's 1979 film comes to the Rewinders Podcast - with quotes, impressions, and ... accusations?

 

Come along with Joe, Ken, Andy, and Dan as they discuss a film that they almost universally watched in high school... maybe. Then, determine if it still stands up after 40-some years.

Why just die by Brain Cloud, when you can die by throwing yourself into a Volcano? Its a simple quandary really. Easily answered after being offered unlimited funds to spend before the task is completed.

Joe Banks hates his work - Joe Banks is told he will die - Joe Banks gets convinced with money to jump into a volcano - Joe Banks goes shopping - Joe Banks gets on a boat - Joe Banks dehydrates massively - Joe Banks gets married - Joe Banks jumps into a volcano.

Join Joe, Ken, Andy, and Dan as they talk about the absurdity that is Joe Versus the Volcano and determine if it still holds up.

 

Peter Banning is a lawyer... in acquisitions... and is a hot shot corporate man... with no time for his kids.

Moria Banning is a loving, caring, and dependable mother to those kids.

They are from London, but live in New York - because BUSINESS!

But, when they return to London they discover a dark secret... Peter. Never. Wanted. To. Grow. Up.

well, until he met Moria - then he wanted to grow up, but growing up meant totally forgetting his childhood.

Follow Peter, as he is abducted by a tiny lady and tortured by children, until he remembers what its like to be a kid again - and appreciate what he hasn't had time for in his life because earning money was drastically more important.

Then, he kills some guys on a boat - cheered on by the children that tortured him.

Peter was a vehicle of murder for these torture children, and once they got the non-bloody death they required - they let Peter and his children go.

Join Joe, Ken, Andy, and Dan as they talk about the movie Hook - and determine if it still holds up.

In a land, far away, in the middle of nowhere... there is a tribe of people in precariously built stilted huts, whom till the grass. Until Sergeant Batman rode into town and killed everyone... or so he thought!

This is where the adventure begins! A king's son, who was stolen in the night... in a fashion we wont get into now, but it involves a cow, and prepared for sacrifice - saved and raised by a man in said precariously built stilted huts ditches his clothes to become THE BEASTMASTER.

Oh yeah, he gets some animals friends along the way too.

His first order of business... laaaaaaaaaadies. Then, vengeance. Vengeance wont potentially get him laid, so he puts that off.

This movie has sword fighting, painted tigers, ferrets, and a bit of nudity to keep the horny boys interested.

Join Joe, Ken, Andy, and Dan as they talk about the movie The Beastmaster - and decide if it still holds up.

In the year 2017 the most popular TV show is The Running Man! Convicts get a chance to earn their freedom with a "futuristic" gladiatorial extravaganza! Lets not talk about its all a show and none of it is real. The Stalkers suck, the Runners actually never win, and Deep Fakes are much easier to accomplish than now in reality.

Join Joe, Ken, Andy, and Dan as they jog along side the movie - digging deep into the shallow one-liner festival of fun.

Find out if The Running Man still stands up.

Joe, Ken, Andy, and Dan have been Rewinding, and Rebooting, movies for a year now - Rebooting the podcast itself.

With a bit of reflection they look back upon their first year together Rewinding movies from the 80s and 90s (mostly) and look a bit ahead as they are unshackled from the season of the Reboots.

Join them for a short chat as they prepare for Season 4... the season of... Guilty Pleasures? Horrible Monstrosities? One-liners? Only time will tell...
