Rewind Classic Movies
02/05/25 • 11 min
GB hosts the Fast Forward show to find out what happened after the release of Big Trouble In Little China in 1986.
What OFFICIALLY happened with Jack and that monster after the end of the movie? When is that sequel with The Rock coming out? How can I splash all the money I don't have on ridiculously expensive Big Trouble games and merch?!?

Fast Forward: Blade Runner 2049 + 7 Forgotten Spin-offs
Rewind Classic Movies
01/08/25 • 14 min
GB hosts the Fast Forward show to find out what happened after the release of Blade Runner in 1982.
Turns out there was quite a bit before the 2017 sequel Blade Runner 2049 - including a TV series in 2021, a video game, some short films AND a new Amazon show coming soon. As well as maybe another new game. Maybe.
Typically, this episode was recorded just before news broke that the new Amazon show wrapped and small details started to come out about its plot. Alas, such is the way the cookie crumbles.

PART 1 OF 2: GB and AJ rewind the cult classic Flash Gordon from 1980 to find out how Brian Blessed told Max Von Sydow to play Ming as a sex wizard, what Brian Blessed did to a baby and numerous terrible impressions of Brian Blessed.

Rewind Classic Movies
04/23/25 • 49 min
PART 2 OF 2: GB and AJ have rewound the cult classic Flash Gordon and continue to look at the music (early Public Service Broadcasting?), Star Wars connections, Rocky Horror comparisons and more Brian Blessed stories!

Then of course, it's ranking time. And it's never been like this before...

Lethal Weapon (1987) has one tiny problem
Rewind Classic Movies
02/12/25 • 58 min
GB and AJ finally agree on something! Lethal Weapon is the best damn buddy cop movie ever (and disagree on how soft pron* the soundtrack is).
But also it's much more than that. From lady lumps to naughty white powder, Lethal Weapon is a wild ride from start to finish.
But it's the finish that has the film's weakest moment...
*Rearrange the letters.

Big Trouble In Little China (1986) is a bonkers spoof?!
Rewind Classic Movies
01/29/25 • 56 min
GB and AJ dive into a classic movie about a pervy and insecure wizard who steals a truck, that was originally meant to be a cowboy movie about a stolen horse. True story.
They talk about Deep Throat, lots of Wang and how it was also expected to be an Indiana Jones film!?
There's good, there's bad and there's lots of things they didn't know before they did some research.

Fast Forward: Flash Gordon's original ending and sequel plans
Rewind Classic Movies
04/30/25 • 11 min
GB hosts the Fast Forward show to find out what happened after the release of Flash Gordon in 1980.
Whose hand is that at the end of the movie? How could they return from death for not only a sequel but a TRILOGY!?
In this show I look at the original (wacky AF but brilliant) ending planned for the movie that WAS shot, how it would have led to more movies, the Life After Flash documentary, the tragedy of Peter Wyngarde, why Flash is now more offensive than ever (officially) and some terrible Flash-related music.
Oh, and Flesh Gordon.
