The monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd. James Adamson is a slightly obsessive armchair fan, giving you his take on the world of cinema. So are his co hosts: James Adamson, his imaginatively named son, and Alan Bayles, a sci fi author, fellow film nerd and fellow Sunderland fan. As well as a look at news, new releases and how we’re fitting in movie watching with our busy exciting lives, we look into classic films we haven't seen yet and overlooked hidden gems you need to see, ask remakes to justify their existence or be wiped from history and offer parole hearings to bad films that need to be remade to fix their flaws.

55.3 The Remakes Tribunal: The Saint (1997), Crack in the World

Monday Dec 09, 2024
Issue 55 of the monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd concludes with the Remakes Tribunal, where we put bad filmmaking on trial. First up we put a remake in the dock and ask if it deserves to exist, or if it's just a useless cashgrab that deserves to be wiped from history. This month it's The Saint, the unloved 1997 Val Kilmer star vehicle. Then we look at a film that didn't work the first time and ask if a remake would fix its problems. For this issue we look at the unsuccessful 1965 disaster movie crack in the world.
Parts 1 and 2 of the issue are already out - Double Reel Monthly and Classics and Hidden Gems - and the first part of the next issue should be with you just before Christmas.
