Rewind Classic Movies

GB and AJ chat about the latest official Bond news in this special episode of the show! (Karate Kid will arrive next week, we promise!)

Denis Villeneuve has been announced by Amazon as Director of Bond 26 so we share our feelings on that, as well as who we would like to helm a Bond film and who would be good as 007 - because rumors are swirling that Tom Holland is in line for the role.

Let us know what you think of the news and who should be involved as director/007!

Of course there's lots more too in this hour, including the genius of Crystal Maze host Richard O'Brien (we joke, he's so much more than that) and why it has a genuine place in the history books as being of cultural importance.

Is Connery playing old man Bond? Is Hans Zimmer again using the same music? Is wrestler Ron Simmons in this?! And why the fark does a tram shoot perfectly upwards when smashing down a San Francisco street?!

All that and more!

GB and AJ rewind The Naked Gun (1988) to ask how to pronounce David Zucker's surname? How old was Elvis' ex-wife in this movie? Did OJ really do it? We might skim over that last one...

Plus, the INCREDIBLE supergroup that brought the soundtrack to life, how it parodied a Batman scene that wasn't even filmed yet, and how the hell we're going to rank this proper hand-me-down classic dad movie.

GB hosts the Fast Forward show to find out what happened after the release of The Terminator in 1984.

Chances are you've never seen the mini sequel to T2 that cost $24 million (featuring Arnie, Linda Hamilton, Robert Patrick and Edward Furlong and was directed by James Cameron) - but why?

There's plenty of insight into the abandoned plans for multiple trilogies and TV shows, as well as games, comics and more.

And more might just include the Terminator 3000 EI...

GB and AJ rewind The Terminator (1984) to ask - is it better than T2? What happens to our their favorite cops?! Was the deleted ending better than what we got and can you really see Arnie's meat weapon?

From casting choices and visual effects to favorite scenes and THAT epic musical theme.

GB hosts the Fast Forward show to find out what happened after the release of Flash Gordon in 1980.

Whose hand is that at the end of the movie? How could they return from death for not only a sequel but a TRILOGY!?

In this show I look at the original (wacky AF but brilliant) ending planned for the movie that WAS shot, how it would have led to more movies, the Life After Flash documentary, the tragedy of Peter Wyngarde, why Flash is now more offensive than ever (officially) and some terrible Flash-related music.

Oh, and Flesh Gordon.

Then of course, it's ranking time. And it's never been like this before...

PART 1 OF 2: GB and AJ rewind the cult classic Flash Gordon from 1980 to find out how Brian Blessed told Max Von Sydow to play Ming as a sex wizard, what Brian Blessed did to a baby and numerous terrible impressions of Brian Blessed.

Is it meant to be camp? Is it a comedy? Why can't GB remember watching it with director Mike Hodges? Has AJ even seen this before? What is Peter Wyngarde's real name and controversial backstory?

There was so much to chat about that it was decided to make a bumper, double edition of the podcast so this first part looks at the background, the start of the movie, the casting, costumes and VFX before Part 2 takes over for music, trivia, the end of the movie (?), tier list rankings and much more.

We rewound this '95 submarine thriller in tribute to the late, great Gene Hackman but we didn't expect to find it more relevant than ever 30 years later.

Trouble with Russia? Check. On the brink of WW3? Check. Feeling safe with nukes in the hands of the US President? Uh oh.

It's Denzil vs Hackman with genius filmmaking, shady filmmaking and a bit of secret Tarantino thrown in.

Also, for the first time, we hear from our Patrons!

Which is tough. I can tell you it will involve Tony Scott's other films and the F...B...I in a questionable policy around democracy....

GB hosts the Fast Forward show to find out what happened after the release of Se7en in 1995.

There was a shocking sort-of sequel with huge Hollywood names, lots more revealed about John Doe's origin story (and his victims) as well as how he executed his crimes.

Plus, we uncover the internet lies about what was really in the box.

It's dark, depressing and shouldn't be enjoyed by anyone of sound mind. But enough about our little podcast! It's time to talk about David Fincher's iconic movie, Se7en!

From the beautifully boring parts to the downright disturbing (I did it!) - we look at everything from the late and genius casting negotiations with Kevin Spacey (careful now) to the massive fake penis gift for one of the cast members.

AJ has a great time.

Which is tough. But there is a sort-of sequel and some interesting tidbits, one featuring Gary Oldman.

GB hosts the Fast Forward show to find out what happened after the release of Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery in 1997.

Yes there are 2 sequels. But there was also a lost TV series (did it exist?!), a new movie, a beautiful Beatles story and cats.

GB and AJ both loved Austin Powers in 1997. But now they're (much) older they find themselves asking, is the movie still funny in 2025?

From the wacky character names to Bond rip-offs, the boys look at how the cast and crew pulled off an iconic film that planted itself in pop culture.

And there's lots of find out too. Including why so much of the best parts of the movie are now missing...

GB hosts the Fast Forward show to find out what happened after the release of Lethal Weapon in 1987.

One big character was meant to die, one who was killed off was meant to survive and another was originally written out by moving to New York.

Oh, and Riggs gets wild with Murtagh's daughter. WHAT. STOP IT.

GB and AJ finally agree on something! Lethal Weapon is the best damn buddy cop movie ever (and disagree on how soft pron* the soundtrack is).

But also it's much more than that. From lady lumps to naughty white powder, Lethal Weapon is a wild ride from start to finish.

But it's the finish that has the film's weakest moment...

*Rearrange the letters.
