Grab your jet skis and suspend your disbelief - it’s time for another high-seas episode of Podcast Assemble. The boys have been living large with F1 (Top Gun: Maverick in fast cars), while Tommy’s also recommending A24’s Eternity (2025)—apparently the perfect date night film if you enjoy quiet existential dread together. Then it’s onto the most expensive punchline of the ’90s: Waterworld (1995)—a film with a reputation… and maybe a redemption arc?
Timecodes:
Main Topic:
Waterworld is what happens when Mad Max forgets the desert and commits fully to the ocean. Kevin Costner plays a gilled drifter navigating a flooded Earth, fighting off smokers, scavengers, and the lingering memory of its budget. Against all odds, Tommy reckons it holds up—and might even give modern blockbusters a run for their money. DL came in expecting a disaster and left pleasantly surprised. It’s chaotic, ambitious, and far more entertaining than its legacy suggests—like finding out the straight-to-DVD sequel is actually… decent.
Is Waterworld an underrated cult classic—or just a very expensive swimming lesson? Let us know at [email protected] or hit us up on socials.
