GB and AJ rewind The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975) to be amazed by a dancing Blofeld, hear the incredible camera set up for MeatLoaf riding his bike and discuss the movie being regular family viewing, Of course there's lots more too in this hour, including the genius of Crystal Maze host Richard O'Brien (we joke, he's so much more than that) and why it has a genuine place in the history books a...

GB hosts the Fast Forward show to find out what happened after the release of The Rock in 1996.

GB and AJ rewind The Rock (1996) to find out why in the name of ZEUS' BUTTHOLE they both used to like this bundle of Bayhem as teenagers. Is Connery playing old man Bond? Is Hans Zimmer again using the same music? Is wrestler Ron Simmons in this?! And why the fark does a tram shoot perfectly upwards when smashing down a San Francisco street?! All that and more! 🗓️ Don't miss the FAST FORWARD episo...

GB hosts the Fast Forward show to find out what happened after the release of The Naked Gun in 1988.

GB and AJ rewind The Naked Gun (1988) to ask how to pronounce David Zucker's surname? How old was Elvis' ex-wife in this movie? Did OJ really do it? We might skim over that last one... Plus, the INCREDIBLE supergroup that brought the soundtrack to life, how it parodied a Batman scene that wasn't even filmed yet, and how the hell we're going to rank this proper hand-me-down classic dad movie. 🗓️ Do...

GB hosts the Fast Forward show to find out what happened after the release of The Terminator in 1984. Chances are you've never seen the mini sequel to T2 that cost $24 million (featuring Arnie, Linda Hamilton, Robert Patrick and Edward Furlong and was directed by James Cameron) - but why?

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 trag...

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! Plus, a weird niche dive into Cornish tourist attractions just to make a small observation about a 3 second moment in the movie! Then of course, it's ranking time. And it's never bee...

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. Is it meant to be camp? Is it a comedy? Why can't GB remember watching it with director Mike Hodges? Has AJ even seen this before? What is Peter Wyngarde's real name...

We rewound this '95 submarine thriller in tribute to the late, great Gene Hackman but we didn't expect to find it more relevant than ever 30 years later. Trouble with Russia? Check. On the brink of WW3? Check. Feeling safe with nukes in the hands of the US President? Uh oh. It's Denzil vs Hackman with genius filmmaking, shady filmmaking and a bit of secret Tarantino thrown in. Also, for the first...

It's dark, depressing and shouldn't be enjoyed by anyone of sound mind. But enough about our little podcast! It's time to talk about David Fincher's iconic movie, Se7en! From the beautifully boring parts to the downright disturbing (I did it!) - we look at everything from the late and genius casting negotiations with Kevin Spacey (careful now) to the massive fake penis gift for one of the cast mem...

GB hosts the Fast Forward show to find out what happened after the release of Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery in 1997. Yes there are 2 sequels.

GB and AJ both loved Austin Powers in 1997. But now they're (much) older they find themselves asking, is the movie still funny in 2025? From the wacky character names to Bond rip-offs, the boys look at how the cast and crew pulled off an iconic film that planted itself in pop culture. And there's lots of find out too. Including why so much of the best parts of the movie are now missing... 🗓️ Don't...

GB hosts the Fast Forward show to find out what happened after the release of Lethal Weapon in 1987. One big character was meant to die, one who was killed off was meant to survive and another was originally written out by moving to New York. Oh, and Riggs gets wild with Murtagh's daughter. WHAT. STOP IT. Find us in other places: YouTube: ► https://www.youtube.com/@rewindclassicmovies Instagram: ►...

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. 🗓️ Don't miss the FAST FORWARD episode next week...

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.

There's good, there's bad and there's lots of things they didn't know before they did some research. 🗓️ Don't miss the FAST FORW...

GB hosts the Fast Forward show to find out what happened after the release of Ghostbusters in 1984. And what coulda, woulda, shoulda happened with the lost Ghostbusters 3 movie in the 90s. Is GBII really that bad? What was good about 2016's Answer The Call? There were X-Files and TMNT crossovers?!? There's lots in this one. Find us in other places: YouTube: ► https://www.youtube.com/@rewindclassic...

Yet again GB and AJ disagree on how good a movie is! From toys and Twinkies to THAT "naughty" scene with a Pl@yboy modal, ad-libs, dickless and behind-the-scenes trivia, the guys look back at an absolute classic 80s movie. Oh, and not forgetting the lyrics Bustin' Makes Me Feel Good!! What?! 🗓️ Don't miss the FAST FORWARD episode next week that looks at everything that happened AFTER Ghostbusters...

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 w...

Ridley Scott's 1982 Blade Runner is iconic and has a huge legacy. It's stunning visuals and stories of replicants (definitely not androids) is universally adored. So why can't one of these idiots love it? Starring Harrison Ford, Sean Young and Rutger Hauer - join GB and AJ as they discuss how Dustin Hoffman and Arnold Schwarzenegger were almost cast as Deckard, and Ford's controversial voiceovers....
