Remakers Mark 65, Part 1 {Dune (1984)}: Genetic Gerrymandering Club
Feb 21, 202200:48:30Tap to summarizeHe’s got an additional skill set of horribleness and the best eyebrows in the biz.– Jer An epic sci-fi novel. A classic struggle of good versus evil, of the oppressed versus the powerful, of nature versus humanity, of David Lynch versus the studios. We give you Dune! Or, at least, our remake of the 1984 version directed by Lynch and widely panned as being A Bad Movie. Which is too bad, because the novel is really good, the story of how the movie ever got made in the first place is intriguing, and the 2021 version is a sight better than this. Still, we are placed here for one purpose, and that is to theoretically remake movies. And thus, we fulfill our purpose.

Dec 7, 202100:58:49Tap to summarizeAll of a sudden, whoa…there’s Beastman Once upon a time, there was a movie that told a story. A story of a rather dumb truck driver and his much more capable friend and their search for love, truth, and not-dying in the underworld of Chinatown. It was beloved by many, but not all. Today, dear friend, you will hear those who love the movie, and those who do not, attempt to tell why they loved, or did not love, this tale as old as…the mid- to late-1980s.

Hello again, and welcome back to remaker mark. Here we are in our 64th episode part two, in fact, where we are continuing to discuss big trouble in little China with me as always are my friends. Andy wicks, Andy, , speaking of a couple of things that were mentioned in the movie, how was that for a segue, uh, magic potion or six demon bag. Andy: your smoothest segue yet? Kyle: Thank you. Andy: Uh, I am well and always magically. Kyle: Hmm. Nice. You’re such a wizard at heart. Andy: Thank you. Thank you. Kyle: Jeremy Nelson, how are you and how about you? Magic potion or six demon bag? Jer: I am doing lovely. And I always go with the unknown. So six demon bag Kyle: I like a Jer: or bag, depending on what part of the country. Kyle: bigger bag. Get a big bagels. Jer: that’s one of the things that my brother-in-law from North Carolina consistently makes fun of my sister and my family for Kyle: Yeah, Jer: six demon bag. Kyle: That’s really weird. Lee white tiger. How are you tonight? And what about you? Magic potion or 60 men bag? Lee: I’m great. And a magic potion. Cause I don’t know what the other one is. Kyle: Um, all the more exciting. Andy: you don’t necessarily know what the magic potion is. Lee: Eh, that’s true. Andy: It’s really just like a suicide at the movie theater. Right. You know, we just a little bit, every, every poppy just chug it. You assume something magical happens. Kyle: we’re going to do a lightning round after this inspired by that, Andy. So, uh, just get ready for that. Okay. Uh, mark Joe sting. How are you and magic potion or 60 men back? Mark: I am. Well, thank you for asking and , I gotta go six demon bay because who doesn’t love surprises. You never know where you’re going to get you reach in, pull one out and see what’s chomping on your hand. They be a hit at parties where you want to murder everyone. Andy: it’s like if Quentin Tarantino directed. Mark: Yes, Kyle: No, thank you. But yes. All of the above. Uh, my name is Kyle will be your host once again, this fine evening. And I, I, yeah, I got to go 60 minute bag. I mean, you gotta figure that at least one of those will be incredibly interesting. You know, it could be world ending. It could be terrible. It could be kind of like cabin in the woods Z, who knows, but, uh, yeah. You know, from an entertainment perspective, uh, I really think you can’t beat it now. The lightning round inspired by Andy’s question of movie theater, uh, soda adventures. Let’s pretend we are in a movie theater that has one of those make your own Coke dispensers, you know, where you can kind of like, do you know, you can do strawberry Fanta, you can do, you know, or grape Coke, whatever. Okay. Going quickly down the road. What is your pick when you have infinite selections in the movie theater like that? Andy go, Andy: Vanilla strawberry. Kyle: Jerry. Jer: Mellow yellow with grape. Kyle: Ooh. Nice Lee go. Lee: , cherry with seven up. Kyle: Ooh, nice mark. Go. Mark: Always sickle orange and vanilla Coke. Andy: Nice. Jer: Oh, we got a winner. Kyle: Nice. That’s really good. One. We’ll usually do grape Sprite. That’s usually because we don’t want to get like crazy caffeinated and those things like even the smallest, like 197 ounces there a does. So yeah. Nice. Yeah. I got to go dream sickle, man. That sounds, Andy: The small is a Toyota Prius gas tank. Kyle: That’s funny. They got a good rate on them. Uh, Jared, this was your pick.

A third- or fourth-listing actor who really steals the show. Knee-high buckskin cowboy boots with tassels. A floating blob like a Garbage Pail Kids version of a beholder. And James Hong.

Oct 25, 202100:51:09Tap to summarizeI was afraid the motorcycles were going to tip over they were going so slow Dudes and duderinos. We conclude our trip through the drug-addled existence that is Easy Rider, and, man, what a ride. Main characters as mannequins, the last act being inspiration for Deliverance, and how, had not Kyle had the kindness in his heart to go along on this ride, this “classic” would have received a sub-5.0 average rating from the RM crew.

Oct 11, 202100:49:47Tap to summarizeIf Wyatt is the nucleus of the atom, Billy is the electron buzzing around it Sometimes you wanna just score big so you can check out, visit a commune, see Mardi Gras, you know, live the good life. Sometimes you do just that, and it ain’t so good. We take on Easy Rider, the most-counter-culturin’, anti-establishin’, middle finger to the man that was ever put on film. Except it was mostly muddled and lost and shots of slow motorcycle rides in the open country. Don’t worry, gentle listener, we made it better.

Sep 27, 202100:47:48Tap to summarizeIt seems like [Eddie] meant to recruit bounty hunters but instead got professional wrestlers. Good news, bad news. Good news: we got to record this one in person! For the first time in years! And it was great! Bad news: this movie didn’t make any more sense to us. Good news: it didn’t matter because we got to hang out together! This one was a lot of fun to discuss and was ripe for the remaking. Without giving too much away, our Sho-Nuff pick was TOP NOTCH.
