In our tenth special episode, we defend our honor as movie remakers. Okay, so that might be a little strong, but we do talk about the fact that while movie remakes often get a bum rap (and often said bum rap is entirely deserved), that doesn’t mean that the entire genre should be disregarded. Here, in Part 1 of this discussion, we each give an example of a movie remake that worked, and an example of a movie remake that didn’t work. Best of all, for only the second time, we were all in the same room at the same time when this was recorded, including special guest contributor and good friend Kyle Hoff.
