It’s time to get in the holiday spirits by talking about everyone’s favorite green guy! I wanted to make a Grinch joke here, but that’s something puny Banner would have done. Instead we’re talking about THE HULK!! It’s the final episode of season 7 of Ideal Remake! So why not end the season with a smash? Yousif Nash (@vaderfan on BlueSky) is a huge Hulk fan! So why not watch the movie that could have put the kibosh on the green man’s entire film career? There are a lot of things going on in this movie, unfortunately they’re all either happening at once or not at all. So let’s break it down, expose them to some gamma radiation and really make something that can leap into the sky!

Zardoz gives guns and tells us to kill a bunch of people. So that’s… that’s a god for ya!

You find yourself sitting at the airport with your spouse. You’re waiting to go to France. Neither of you want to go. Neither of you are happy. And how did you even get here? Two for the Road is a look back at the various stages of the relationship between Audrey Hepburn and Albert Finney. Corsica and I decide to look at the various parts of this movie and see if we can’t come up with an Ideal Remake! But we’ll have to jump around in time so that we really understand where we’re at!

Let’s say that you’re a baby. A cute one for sure! And a fairy drops by to grant you a gift. And that gift is to be obedient to everything that you are ordered to do. That’s not… do you really have to take that gift? Well… it’s either that or become a squirrel! Looks like obedience it is! Semien Abay (@semienabay) returns to Ideal Remake to let Sam know exactly how different this movie is from the book, and together we find a way to make the book into a more faithful adaptation. We laugh, we cry, we learn that the gift of obedience sounds AWFUL. What was the fairy Lucinda thinking??

When spooks and ghouls rise up and inhabit the world…. who ya gonna podcast with? Scott Carelli! Scott returns to Ideal Remake to remake a movie that we were BOTH surprised that I had never covered before. Like, seriously, I had to scroll through my own records to double check!

Or are we just gonna fade back away to the other side. Listen and let us know!

Well… that’s gonna have to wait because the GAME is on! Dan Peck (@DoonPook on the socials) is here to convince me to get my butt off the couch and remake this hilarious 1992 movie!

We’ve done it! We’ve found one of the worst movies! But that’s okay because that’s what Ideal Remake is here for! We’re going to take this animated movie from 1972 and make it Ideal! My guest, Jake Hoolihan (@KinoTripper on Instagram and YouTube), is an amazing writer and lover of genre. They brought this movie to our attention and we agree that it MUST be remade. By US!! So sit back and enjoy a fantasy world where magic clashes with technology, a battle for the ages by two incredibly powerful WIZARDS!!

Incredible writer Matt Harry (@Matt_Harry_mh on Instagram) introduces Sam the iron-packed richness of this very silly movie. And it has to be silly! It’s Robin Williams’s feature film debut!

Just when you thought it was safe, Ideal Remake goes after one of those movies that so many people would say is untouchable! But is it? Guest Dana Braziel-Solovy (@DanaBraziel on the socials) and I think that IF they ever try to remake Gangs of New York, we might have some suggestions! Gangs of New York is a movie about the struggles of the working class, and if YOU want to help the struggles of the working class, then remember to vote union!

We’re talking about a video game movie?? That must mean that Alex Caine (@foodandhippos on Instagram) has returned to the podcast! We talk about the… miscasting of the movie as well as some of the other, more structural issues. And we don’t even need to hit up up down down left right left right b a start! This episode is a lot of fun and we really came up with some fun, game-y ways to truly make this remake ideal! So check it out, and then let us know if we hit the high score!

It’s the last day of school! Time to celebrate the only way Austin, TX knows how… by having all the rising seniors beat up the rising freshman! Ah youth… But there are more ways to tell a coming of age story. Heck, this is only one of RIchard Linklater’s many interpretations! So what are Raye Helvig (@RayeBoi on Instagram) and I going to to? I guess we better sit down and figure out how we’re going to remake Dazed and Confused! Step 1: Where can we find a beer around here?

You unlock this episode with the key of imagination. Beyond it is another podcast: a podcast of sound, a podcast of sight, a podcast of mind. You’re moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You’ve just crossed over into… Ideal Remake. This was an incredibly fun episode to do! For starters, this isn’t one story, it’s FOUR! (and a half?) So Jon Gutierrez (@DasGoot1 on the Socials) and I had our work cut out for us. How do you remake some of the most iconic pieces of American media? Well we gave it our best shot. And you can give that listen… in… the Twilight Zone!

The year is 1980. Star Wars is pretty popular. Everyone is talking about it. So what if, and here me out, we just did that again? No? What if we did Star Wars AND The Magnificent Seven? Heck yeah! Now we’ve got ourselves a movie! Battle Beyond the Stars is a WILD ride. There’s space, explosions, that one spaceship has boobs… the movie basically has everything! So what can Tanner (@sparkyupstart on Blue Sky) and I POSSIBLY do to remake this movie? I’m pretty sure the answer is spend more time on the script! And also more space explosions. Obviously.

It’s my Sesquicentennisode! Did I learn that word from Strong Bad emails? Yes. Do I feel good about using it now? Also yes! But that means this is episode 150! And I cannot believe I have made it this far. So what better way to celebrate this incredible milestone than remaking what will DEFINITELY be the oldest movie I will ever cover on this podcast! Metropolis!! And to remake this movie I am going to need some amazing guests. Kevin Mosteller (@kevinmostellermusic on Instagram) and Amanda Barnes (@itsamandabarnes on Instagram) were the perfect pair to really break down what makes this absolutely iconic movie so incredible, but they are ALSO the perfect guests to help me recraft this movie’s tainted legacy. Let’s trudge into the podcast mines and work and work until we get this right or die trying!

At the premier of his college play, an old woman approaches Richard Collier and hands him a pocket watch. She says “come back to me,” and then leaves. Little did Richard know, that in order to find the love of his life, he would need to travel through time. That’s Somewhere in Time! Christopher Reeve stars as Richard Collier in a bid to be seen as a true leading man outside his Superman cape. And he does a wonderful job! But do Scott Carelli (@ScottCarelli on Instagram) and I have what it takes to rebuild this movie from the ground up? I say that we DO! This is an excellent episode and I hope you all enjoy it!

He’s a man of disguise, intrigue, and just being a super rad spy. He isn’t instantly recognizable as a 7ft tall, super jacked, Austrian man. No no no! Don’t be silly! Arnold Schwarzeneggar stars in True Lies! And also he’s married to Jamie Lee Curtis and she has no idea that he’s a spy… Oops. WGA Award-winning writer Micki Boden joins the podcast to talk about this very silly, but action-packed movie! Can we figure out some sort of awesome adventure for our super spy to go on? For sure! But he’s also going to need to sort things out back at home.

Ideal Remake

Absolutely nothing is better than living on a space station! Or at least, that’s what Zenon believes! Zenon is an adventurous 13-year-old who loves her friends, family, and home. But when all that is threatened by Capitalism, Zenon has to do whatever it takes to save everyone! This would be a lot easier if she wasn’t grounded. Writer Celeste Klaus (@celestemarie14 on all socials) joins us for the first time to talk about this DCOM (Disney Channel Original Movie) that was so impactful on her (and Sam’s) childhood! This is a movie that they each watched whenever it came on the TV. And it was so much fun to talk about it again! DCOM’s are a very special part of many millennial childhood’s, so can Celeste and Sam be SO good at remaking it in this episode that they get to remake one for REAL?? Only time will tell!

He has the skills to win at absolutely any game of chance. If anyone knows when to hold them or when to fold them, it’s him. But he also hates having his pictures taken, so no one knows what he looks like. But they have all heard the legend… of the God of Gamblers! Dianne Bloom (@DianneBloom on Instagram) returns to introduce Sam to yet another movie that he should have heard of a long time ago. God of Gamblers is a Hong Kong action comedy, relying on the gun-fu that Chow Yun-fat is known for. And it’s a lot of fun! Do Dianne and Sam have what it takes to win big with this episode, or will the house take it all? Listen and find out!

One of the greatest comedies ever made. An absolutely all-star cast that pulls in just about EVERYONE in comedy at the time. And we’re going to try and remake it! Michelle Iannantuono (@Octopunkmedia on the socials) joins the podcast to talk about her all-time favorite movie. And who can blame her? A group of motorists witness an accident and hear the last words of a man telling them where to find incredible wealth. Of course it’s a race to see who can get there first!

It’s 1997 and Michael Douglas is a Wall Street-kind guy. Can you even believe it? But something in his life is missing. And even he, as rich and as powerful as he is, doesn’t know what it is. And that’s when his little brother comes along with an invitation to play… The Game. Sean Lavery (@SeanLavery78 on Instagram) joins the podcast for the first time to introduce Sam to this David Fincher thriller. Can Sam handle it? How would they both fair when faced with challenges like this. And, most importantly of all, who do THEY think can handle what CRS has in store?

Would you believe that the reason Bugs Bunny is eating a carrot, why we even BELIEVE that rabbits enjoy carrots, is originally based in this movie? Well that’s what happens when you’re the original screwball comedy! That’s what happens when you put together Claudette Colbert and Clark Gable! And That’s What Happens… One Night! It Happened One Night is an incredible piece of our comedic film history! And I had the opportunity to plan out an Ideal Remake with WGA strike captain and all around fountain of joy: Joelle Garfinkel! Joelle (@Joelle_Garfinkel on Instagram) kept all our spirits up while we were striking at Radford Studios, and she brings that level of hype to this episode. Enjoy!

Did you know that there’s a movie out there with Matthew Broderick and Marlon Brando? And Brando is reprising his character from The Godfather? I sure didn’t, but boy was this a lot of fun to find! Novelist and all-around fun person to be on strike with, Ben Crane, suggested this as his movie for the podcast and we had a blast both watching and then remaking it! Matthew Broderick is a freshman at NYU, gets mugged, and then finds the craziest job… being a courier for The Godfather!

You tell them to run, but you know it will be of no use. For you’ve just caught sight of the full moon… and have begun to change… We’re remaking the classic Universal monster movie from 1941… THE WOLF MAN!!

Well we also have two amazing guests for this episode! Scott Carelli (@ScottCarelli) keeps the spooky vibes flowing and brings in her writing and podcasting partner Nick Jimenez (@NickmJimenez) to really get to the core of what makes for an ideal The Lost Boys Remake! Is it the vibes? Is it the missions inspired by comic books? Or is it that this would be a perfectly fine episode if it weren’t for all the damn vampires?

Did you know that Robert Downey Jr. had a whole career BEFORE he was Iron Man? Crazy, I know! But it’s true! This week’s guest, Scott Carelli (@ScottCarelli), suggested an oft forgotten movie called Heart and Souls from 1993. It’s got an absolutely incredible cast, and is one of the sweetest movies I’ve ever seen. SO first of all, do yourself a favor and let yourself watch the movie Heart and Souls! And then Scott and I will be back to give you a glimpse into how we image an Ideal Remake would go!

We know what EVERYONE has been looking forward to MOST about next year! That’s right! It’s an ELECTION YEAR!! Wooooooooooo! So why not get the party started with the movie that solidified Robert Redford’s career: THE CANDIDATE! This satirical look at a 70s election will absolutely make you realize that we have been fighting for a lot of the same things for more than 50 years. SO FUN!! But Dianne Bloom (@Dibster) is here to help us figure it all out and get it RIGHT this time. So get registered to vote and then listen to our Ideal Remake of The Candidate!

Hey man, we’re making that movie that takes place at the height of the old West. Do you think one “Wild” will do it? Because three is DEFINITELY too many! You’re right! Let’s go for two! We’re taking a crack at the giant-spider movie itself… WILD WILD WEST! And it wouldn’t be possible without this week’s guest: Chris Lord (@Lordopher on Instagram). Chris loves absolutely everything James Bond, and if you need a refresher on that, listen to our James Bond remake! So who better to remake what is basically James Bond in the Old West? Plus if you like tangents… BOY do we have some tangents for you!
