He’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 […]

It is that time of year again, when we talk about some of the talented performers and creators we lost in the past year. From The Wire to The Golden Girls to The Sound of Music to Saturday Night Live to Sweet Sweetback’s Baadasssss Song to Superman to Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? to The Monkees to Saved By the Bell to Arrested Development, nary a genre was left untouched. Join us, won’t you, […]

Here at Remaker’s Mark, we like to make our opinions known. We like to banter and volley. We like to recommend. And this time, we recommend so hard. Four fifths of the RM crew bombard you with suggestion after exhortation after counsel until you fall to your knees, drowning in new things to bring into […]

All 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 […]

Gracie Law is a lawyer, because in 1986, your surname was your profession, as in olden tymes. – Andy A first-listing marquee star who is really a second-fiddle. 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 […]

Betty White is the rightest wrong answer It’s Opposite Day! Instead of doing what we normally do (make super impressive recasting choices that shine lights of revelation and insight on to the cinematic world), today we chose the road less traveled. And it has made all the difference. Buckle up for our Wrong Answers Only rendition […]

I 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 […]

If 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’, […]

It 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 […]

What do you get when you cross kung fu, angry arcade owners, football shoulder pad-wearing shoguns, Motown, super awkward romantic interests, and DeBarge? A bowl of the goulash that is The Last Dragon. Remaker’s Mark makes its triumphant return from summer break by trying to solve the age-old mystery of how this movie wasn’t a hit. I mean, […]

The Cell was a film that divided the RM crew, sowing seeds of discontent and argument about the merits of its production design, writing, direction, and use of J-Lo. Some said the amount of J-Lo was too little. Some said too much. Do you think it was just right? Amongst all of this confusion, some things […]

Welcome to our nightmare dreamscape, the prison of our mind, our remake of 2000’s The Cell. We take many (well, five) different paths to recreating this film and its direction. See if we can be redeemed or if we’re too far gone. Thomas Kincaid Feel the Pain, by Dinosaur Jr. Are you making fun of […]

This is like Great British Baking Show…if the stakes were death… – Jer We conclude our What’s Up Docs? series with a light-hearted romp through the world’s most stressful and high-stakes pastry contest. If you enjoy The Great British Baking Show, Iron Chef, or any other culinary contest, may we recommend Kings of Pastry, a documentary about […]

You take the good (Pryor, Wilder, Poitier), you take the bad (the plot, the writing, the directing), you take ’em both and there you have…Stir Crazy. This movie underwhelmed us. And not in the Supergirl or KISS Meets the Phantom of the Park sort of way, but in an “I’m so disappointed in you” sort of way that your […]

Another year, another legion of talented performers and creators that have shrugged off this mortal coil and moved into the Great Beyond, and another chance for Andy to have his Grim Reaper robe dry-cleaned. We spend some time eulogizing just a few of the many wonderful talents that passed away in 2020. Apple Fitness+ Peloton […]

Sometimes a recipe looks better on paper than in practice. We take on 1980’s Stir Crazy, starring Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor, and directed by Sidney Poitier, and see how we can make this tale about mistaken identity, prison rodeos, song-and-dance clown mascots, and using pliers as a negotiating tool while talking about your feelings, […]

In a classic tale of good versus evil, light versus dark, David versus Goliath, the Rebel Alliance versus the Galactic Empire, we hear the epic saga of Steve versus Billy. Get ready for King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters, a documentary that tells the surprisingly sordid tale of the fight to claim the world record in…Donkey […]

How do you solve a problem like a pretty decent movie that came out at a time of some really great movies and got overshadowed? How do you keep a wave upon the sand? Sorry, I digress. We conclude our discussion of The Book of Eli and talk about how this film got the short […]

Continuing our series on films by directors who are minorities, we take on 2010’s Book of Eli, a post-apocalyptic neo-Western film where literacy is king and cat oil is a form of sun protection. Join us as we fill the monstrous shoes of Denzel Washington and Gary Oldman, and hear how Andy totally nails his minor […]
