Rewatchability Is A Podcast.

Strap a bag of someone else's pee onto your leg, this week we go into GATTACA, the 1997 Sci-Fi drama starring Ethan Hawke, Uma Thurman and Jude Law. Set in a future where gene editing has become the norm, and those who were born "naturally" are marginalized, this is the story of one man trying to be more than his genes. This movie fascinated us with it's glimpse of the future, but how does it hold up today?Listen here to find out. Also subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or Stitcher.

Don your capes and polish your forks, this week we fight evil with the MYSTERY MEN, the 1999 send up of superhero movies starring Ben Stiller, William H. Macy, Hank Azaria and Janeane Garofalo as the most hopeless superhero team since, uh, Zack Snyder's Justice League. Released in the wake of the Batman & Robin, this movie bombed despite its star studded cast including Tom Waits, Oscar Winner Geoffrey Rush and Pee-Wee. We loved this movie when we weren't saturated with superheros and comic book adaptations, but how does it hold up today?Listen here to find out. Also subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or Stitcher.

*FLASH* This week we are not talking about MEN IN BLACK, the 1997 sci-fi action comedy starring Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones. You will forget this movie was ever directed by Barry Sonnenfeld, that Linda Fiorentino and Vincent D'Onofrio appear in it. Also, Rip Torn, who you will forget we thought was dead. This was movie was never a favorite of ours because it never existed, but if it did exist and we did rewatch it, how would it hold up now?Listen here to find out.

Grab your pocket protector, this week we suffer REVENGE OF THE NERDS, the 1984 comedy starring Anthony Edwards and Robert Carradine as a four-eyed nerds who set out to turn the tables on the bullies, jocks and frat boys and show the world that there's nothing wrong with being a nerd-- except for all the toxic, awful things that nerds do. Also featuring Timothy Busfield, John Goodman and the guy who voiced Leonardo in the Ninja Turtle movies (NERD), this movie gave a voice to pale, socially inept and awkward, but how does it hold up today?Listen here to find out.

With the Whitney Houston documentary Whitney in cinemas, we decided it was a good time to revisit THE BODYGUARD, the 1992 romantic thriller starring Kevin Costner, Whitney Houston, Bill Cobbs, and one of the bad guys from Dumb & Dumber. Also, I think Whitney may sing a song in it! No such luck for fans of Kevin Costner's musical œuvre. It's a movie where duty and passion are crossed like two samurai swords, or maybe a samurai sword and a tv camera-gun. This movie intrigued us as a very adult movie when we were younger, but how does it hold up today? Listen here to find out. Also subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or Stitcher.

It's the end of the school year and this week we're skipping class to stay home and rewatch FERRIS BUELLER'S DAY OFF, the 1986 teen comedy directed by John Hughes and starring Matthew Broaderick as the titular Ferris Bueller as well as Alan Ruck and Mia Sara as two characters who aren't in the title, despite also taking the day off.

Also Tom Arnold is there to remind you how mad you still are about the Roseanne reboot debacle.

In anticipation of Ocean's 8, the spin-off now hitting theaters, we harken back to where it all began (again) with OCEAN'S ELEVEN! This 1999 Steven Soderbergh heist flick, a remake of the 1960 Rat Pack picture, was a real hit with audiences for its one-two combo of charming movie stars and grand larceny.

Also featuring John Goodman, Frances MacDormand and a bunch of babies that who knows what happened to them and if they had mommas that loved them, this movie introduced us to a lighter, but no less brilliant side of the Coen brothers, but how does it hold up now?Joining us this week is Todd Van Allen on the Comedy Above The Pub Podcast!Also, please Subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or Stitcher.

Preston, with Keanu Reeves as Ted 'Theodore' Logan, it's a movie about two time-travelling dudes who will have a massive effect on history, despite almost flunking history.
