Next Episode
Reboot
We take a look at reboots, remakes, re-imaginings, and other almost-synonymous new versions of old works. Are they made to take advantage of new technology; to update the plots for modern audiences; or maybe for no valid reason at all?
Needless to say, none of the music featured on this episode was as it was originally recorded:
- Mark Ronson – Just
- Karen O, Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross – Immigrant Song
- The Dears – What I'm Trying To Say Pt. 1
- The Jimi Hendrix Experience – All Along The Watchtower
- Alarm Will Sound – 4
