Not since The Little Shop of Horrors episode have we had a full musical to talk about. Let alone two of them! Not many remember (or know for that matter) about the Disney helmed 2003 remake of The Music Man, let alone that Matthew Broderick was in the starring role. However, Jacob and Stuart do! Somehow. This episode also has (surprise!) more musical talk, another actor related to The Andy Griffith Show, a search for a Disney film based on an original idea, and discussion on how two identical films an be so different.  All this and more on They Remade It!

The duo gets back to science fiction as they talk about both of these moral-laden pictures. Will the original's ironically more down-to-earth themes overshadow its successor? Or will Keanu Reeves steal the show in what is arguably a more thrilling adaptation? As always, only one real way to find out! This episode also contains talk on both of the Netflix Nickelodeon specials, discussion on delightful acting from Kathy Bates to Frances Bavier, a possible extended ending for the original film, and endless talks on The Twilight Zone.  All this and more on They Remade It!

After years of talking about Jerry Lewis off the air, Stuart and Jacob finally sit down and get the chance to discuss one film he was in, and the same film produced by him and starring Eddie Murphy. Which film do they find funnier, or do they even find either funny at all? Only one way to find out! This episode also contains discussion on the new Lion King remake, insult comics, gross-out humor in the 90's, and what purpose film critics actually serve.  All this and more on They Remade It!

Many have been talking about why it is that Spider-Man has received so many remakes in the past two decades, but is this really the question that should be being asked? Stuart and Jacob are going to attempt to find out! Even if it means coming up with some less-than-popular opinions along the way. This episode also contains talks on Toy Story 4, Willem Dafoe's scenery chewing, some thoughts from the duo on New York, and why we need more lighthearted superhero flicks.  All this and more on They Remade It!

Well, they've finally done it. It seems that Stuart and Jacob are finally looking at a film that could very well be objectively poorly made. Of course, when compared to a film with such esteem as The Secret of NIMH, its a wonder that a sequel so long after the fact was even attempted in the first place. Regardless, find out their qualms with not just the sequel, but also the original feature! This episode also contains discussion on Spielberg cartoons, bargain-bin flicks, Dom DeLuise, and the mystery of MGM Kids.  All this and more on They Remade It!

Something a little different this time around as Stuart and Jacob ask each other some questions in order to properly display their thought process and beliefs regarding movies, actors/actresses, and viewing habits. Normal episodes will still be coming out at the regular rate, this is just a little in between that was done. Enjoy!

Fall down the rabbit hole into Wonderland (or Underland) as Stuart and Jacob take a look at the two Disney adaptations of the timeless classic, Alice in Wonderland. Does the animated version hold up at all in this day and age? Does the Tim Burton adaptation deserve the flack it's been getting in recent years? These two certainly don't have the answers, but they'll stumble their way through it anyways. This episode also contains discussion on the new DuckTales (yes, again), British idioms and phrases, Thurl Ravenscroft, and the rut that Danny Elfman has created for himself.  All this and more on They Remade It!

Taking on a German film with the impeccable Peter Lorre is one thing, but what about comparing it to a remake that seemingly no one knows or cares about? Now that would be something, and this week that is exactly what is covered in both versions of M. How does America handle taking on Fritz Lang's magnum opus (his words)? Press play and find out! This episode also contains discussion on Endgame and Game of Thrones (spoiler free!), German expressionism, the importance of a good poster, and the Hollywood blacklist.  All this and more on They Remade It!

Back to anime! Well, on one account. The other film being discussed is a raucous family comedy from the 90's starring John Goodman (and no, it isn't "Mouse Hunt". John Goodman isn't in "Mouse Hunt"). We couldn't have two films more opposite this time around, with one being low and meditative and the other screaming in your face every 5 minutes. This episode also contains the discussion of the new Dumbo film, US dubbing vs UK dubbing, why Stuart and Jacob AREN'T Siskel and Ebert, and, of course, gross-out humor.  All this and more on They Remade It!

For the first time in the short history of the show, one of the films Stuart and Jacob are talking about is a silent picture! Is it effective in it's storytelling? Or is it beaten out by it's much more talkative remake from 16 years after the fact. Tune in to find out! This episode also contains the discussion on the benefits of silent cinema, flat-earth culture, blue-screening vs green-screening, and the holy trinity of fetishes.  All this and more on They Remade It!
