Hollywood keeps on rebooting everything over and over again, and always seems to get it wrong. So Tanner and Lindsay have decided to get one step ahead of them and reboot everything themselves! Through reboots, remakes, sequels, spin-offs, adaptations, and other weird scenarios, these two are gonna change it all for better or worse - which, sometimes, is still better.

243: Tanner's Gunpla is Haunted
Monday Mar 24, 2025
Monday Mar 24, 2025
Oh no, there's flesh on the gunpla too...Tanner's taking it back to the 00s with their requel of Custom Robo, which had one game famous for the massive plot twist halfway through and another game that...was also released in the states. But maybe we can combine these things, use the lesser-known plot elements to bridge the gap, and make it a little gayer? Of course we will, you know us.

242: Raena is Always Thinking About Drakengard
Monday Mar 10, 2025
Monday Mar 10, 2025
Content Warning in this episode, and Drakengard by extension, for violence, war, mutilation, death, incest, cannibalism, and pedophilia.
In this episode, Raena's here to explain Drakengard and the greater DrakenNieR franchise to us. It's...a lot. But the main thing is that she'd like to see if the first Drakengard game can be made fun to play, even though the slog of the original is kind of the point? If that doesn't work, maybe we can at least make it weirder.
Raena cannot be found online. She's a ghost!

241: Lindsay Writes the First Maisie Dobbs Fanfiction
Monday Feb 24, 2025
Monday Feb 24, 2025
Do you have any idea how hard it is to reboot something with no TV Tropes page, no AO3 presence, and seemingly no fandom whatsoever? Well, Lindsay's trying her best with the Maisie Dobbs mystery series, which she definitely didn't fully imagine herself. She and Tanner will outline some ways to translate the first three books into a brief British miniseries, complete with hidden gays, cults, and...psychic powers? Ah, here we go again.

240: Tanner Clones a Phone and Steals a Baby
Monday Feb 10, 2025
Monday Feb 10, 2025
It's time to reboot an edgy, hard-hitting teen mystery/medical drama...that aired on the Canadian equivalent of Nickelodeon? Yeah, Open Heart never had a chance, even with it's solid cast and cool (admittedly half-baked) ARG companion app. Lindsay's gonna help Tanner flesh out the good parts like it's inherent Gothic melodrama, a surprisingly good representation of schizophrenia, and a teen who loves spreadsheets.

239: Lindsay Gives Advise to Classics Majors
Monday Jan 27, 2025
Monday Jan 27, 2025
What's the secret of The Secret History? It's that these characters all think they're the main character of a grand sweeping narrative, but in reality they're just rich kids who aren't as clever as they think they are, sucked into the vortex of an egomaniac language professor. But Lindsay's put together a plan for a miniseries that highlights just how unhinged the cast of Dark Academia's great grandpapa have become, and Tanner...thinks these kids just need to touch grass.

238: Tanner Can't Reboot Rudolph Becase of Woke
Tuesday Dec 24, 2024
Tuesday Dec 24, 2024
Am I wrong though? Am I? It's the night before Christmas and we're taking on the classic tale of a special snowflake reindeer who's being barred from society because of certain physical aspects...huh, I wonder what the conservatives would think of this. Still, we can smooth some of the edges off of this - make it more applicable to today, stop Santa and his 8 Standard Reindeer from being culpable in bullying, and why don't we make Yukon Cornelius some kind of wizard while we're at it?

237: Lindsay is CHALLENGED to Make Cruella Sell Out
Monday Dec 09, 2024
Monday Dec 09, 2024
In our newest CHALLENGE EPISODE, Tanner's given Lindsay the task of creating the Cruella sequel we...don't really need, but we might deserve, even if Disnopolis would never let us take this close a look at 80s Cold War Fashion Authoritarianism. We also discuss what makes a punk a punk, the artist and their muse, and the umpteenth gay character.

Monday Nov 18, 2024
You ready for some FOOTBALL? Tanner wasn't, but Ryan and Lindsay are actual jocks so they're here to help them remake their second-favourite sports movie The Replacements. How can we keep the heartwarming idea of second chances and glory for glory's sake, while also making sure this movie doesn't hate Unions the same way that the original does? Listen to find out!

235: Tanner is CHALLENGED to Bring Sport Back to Oakland
Monday Nov 04, 2024
Monday Nov 04, 2024
It's time for a CHALLENGE EPISODE! It's Tanner's birthday today, and they were given a topic by Lindsay to tackle on their own, and the challenge was 2000's Romeo Must Die! The film that turned Jet Li and the late Aaliyah into stars, a loose retelling of Shakespeare that can be tightened up...by stretching it out into a miniseries. We discuss how the the film resonates even more today, nepo babies funding third spaces, and women.
Thank you Ryan for explaining the Oakland Sports situation to us; he can be found on BlueSky @hauntedthevagabond!

234: Lindsay Makes a Film That Doesn't Self-Ignite
Monday Oct 21, 2024
Monday Oct 21, 2024
What's one to do with a cursed film made by a nazi occultist? Stick it in your freezer! Or write a book about it, and Silva Morena-Garcia's Silver Nitrate is a super awesome read. But it's a book about film, and Lindsay really wants to make a film about film, so we're doing an adaptation of it! We discuss how to smooth over the few bumps we found, playing with the medium, why Nazi magic is all fake, and which niche Anime Guillermo would reference if he was in the director's chair. It's rad!
