Alternate Podcast

Disney's Tomorrowland is a fun kids movie based on one of the original lands at Disneyland in Anaheim, California. It's full of action, adventure, some humor and perhaps a missed opportunity of hope. There is some hope though, and Alex Tourje with Rob Newton have some notes for an alternate ending. 

This 2022 Netflix film was created during the height of the COVID pandemic. Windfall is very creative for a film with really only three characters. It's a story of one man holding two others hostage (unexpectedly to him) in their own vacation home for some money. Rob Newton and Alex Tourje review the movie and create an alternate ending. 

The late William Hurt, Holly Hunter and Albert Brooks are brilliant in this comedy about life in a competitive TV newsroom. A love triangle doesn't hurt the story either.

The Belgian detective, Hercule Poirot is back to solve a murder and this time it's on a cruise on the Nile! A new set of stars are cast and everyone is a suspect.

Rob Newton and Alex Tourje review the fil...

Old rich Ben Kingsley from New York City is dying of cancer. So he pays to have his mind put in Ryan Reynolds' body which he's told was made in a lab. But was it really? This 2015 sci fi action movie is pretty good. It's like Transcendence meets Jason Bourne. But Alex Tourje and Rob Newton have two great alternate endings to share with you.

The 2022 Valentine's Day movie is Marry Me with Jennifer Lopez and Owen Lopez. The rom com is more romantic than comedy; except of course for Sarah Silverman's character.

Rob and Alex love watching movies. They also love talking about...

The Denzel Washington film, Deja Vu is not properly named. But it is a decent crime movie. The ending though, is not satisfying. Good, not great. So film fan's Rob Newton and Alex Tourje are going to recap the 2006 movie and give you an alternate ending or two.

Yay, you get to see John Connor in action in Terminator Salvation! John Connor is played by Christian Bale? Extra cool. So why didn't this action movie bring the story full circle? Why? Why??!!! Rob Newton and Alex Tourje love watching movies and talking about them. Yeah, they're those cool friends. They dare to create alternate endings. 

Don't Look Up is currently one of Netflix's most watched movies. Why? Really only because of the star-studded cast. Also the comet that is about to hit earth. Or is it an asteroid? Anyway, this movie needs an alternate ending badly. Rob Newton and Alex Tourje have a guest to talk about the film in this week's episode.

Spider-Man: No Way Home is one of the MCU's best films yet. At least Rob thinks so. Alex liked it too. Spoilers in this podcast if you haven't seen the new movie yet. But if that's true, why?!

The Spider-Man movie's mostly have a tragedy in them. One of the elements that makes the hero so loveable. But The Amazing Spider-Man 2 with Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone could have been so much more. Rob Newton and Alex Tourje talk about it and create an alternate ending.

Tom Cruise as a mummy fighter, nuff said! Do you think he does his own stunts? Does the mummy? Well, the Dark Universe didn't workout because of how this movie was received. Perhaps Rob Newton and Alex Tourje's alternate ending can change that. You decide!

Checkout this 2021 version of a Christmas Story called, 8-Bit Christmas! It is, in one word, fantastic! Especially for anyone that grew up during the golden age of the "Original" Nintendo. The movie is full of 80's nostalgia. Rob Newton and Alex Tourje hoped the writers put a little more into the ending though. So, they're making some alternate endings.

Idris Elba kicks butt as a CIA agent stopping a heist in France with pick-pocketer Richard Madden in The Take. Or Bastille Day. Just a couple of guys from the UK playing Americans in France. It's about 90 minutes long so it has Alex Tourje's attention. She and Rob Newton have some ideas for an alternate ending.

Free Guy is like Ready Player One put funnier and with Ryan Reynolds not as Deadpool. Or is he? Free Guy is hilarious and a lot of fun. The ending is pretty satisfying too. But can it be changed? In some small ways, Rob Newton and Alex Tourje create an alternate ending. Free Guy is a -insert adjective here- movie! When you know, you know.

Carrie Pilby is a great movie about a young genius living in the city. She is not very social and her therapist has given her a To-Do list to perhaps find some joy. This film was recommended by a listener Challenging Rob Newton and Alex Tourje to create an alternate ending to a film that has a pretty great ending. Challenge accepted. WATCH THE MOVIE FIRST on Netflix. Comments or requests: alternat...

Happy Halloween! Edward Scissorhands is without a doubt Tim Burton's twist on the story of Frankenstein's monster.

Steve Carell and Keira Knightley are great in this comedy drama about the end of the world.

The ending is really good but Rob Newton and Alex Tourje explore other ways THE END might go for Penny and Dodge.

The Twilight Saga is a favorite of many. Was the ending loved? Doesn't matter because Rob Newton and Alex Tourje give it an alternate ending anyway. 

Zack Snyder's Sucker Punch is darker than his other films. This movie could have gone a really cool way. It could have given the characters true justice. But since it had a more depressing ending, Rob Newton and Alex Tourje changed the ending.

The Circle with Emma Watson and Tom Hanks is a B version of a Black mirror episode. It is either showing you the danger of working for Facebook or Google.
