Remakes Reboots & Revivals

Dune - How You Dune?

This week, Nicole and Rolando cover the two film adaptations of Frank Herbert's "Dune." First they discuss the 1984 classic (?) by David Lynch. How did he end up as the director of this film and why was it considered a flop? Then, we discuss Denis Villeneuve's adaptation. Slightly longer than David Lynch's film, this film splits the source material into two parts. Was it a smart choice? Listen to find out.

Scenes from a Marriage - Where Was Oscar Issac‘s Glow-Up?

Marriage: blessing or curse? This week, Nicole and Rolando discuss Ingmar Bergman's "Scenes from a Marriage," a 1973 Swedish mini-series that showed audiences the dissolution of a "successful" marriage. The series would go on to be blamed for Europe's then-rising divorce rates. The series broke new ground in its often raw depiction of a failing marriage. Does it glamorize divorce or show the brutality of "love."
Then, they turn their attentions to HBO's remake, "Scenes of Marriage," starring Jessica Chastain and Oscar Issac. This time, the tables are turned when the gender roles are reversed. Does the series sustain its impact with the new changes? And, considering the popularity of "divorce stories," can this series break new ground?

She/He‘s All That - Happy Birthday, F. Scott Fitzgerald

1999 was quite a year for teen movies: Cruel Intentions. 10 Things I Hate About You. Drive Me Crazy. Jawbreaker. And of course, "She's All That" starring Freddie Prinze, Jr. and Rachel Leigh Cook. The Pygmalion adaptation focuses on high school teens who fall in love in the midst of a cruel bet. And Rolando was surprised how dark the film could be at times. Was high school ever really this mean?
 
Then, flash forward to 2021 when Netflix dropped "He's All That," a retelling of the beloved teen movie but with a twist: The girl gives the guy a popularity makeover. Because equality? The film explores the fragile relationship between teenagers and social media. Does it actually deliver on a message?

Monsters, Inc & Monsters at Work - If I were a Grinch I would be welcomed in the Monsters universe

Pixar. A great production company or Disney slave? That depends on who is watching.
This week, Nicole and Rolando step back into the closet to visit the world of monsters. "Monsters, Inc" is the 2013 film by Pixar that explores a world where a city of monsters is powered by the screams of little children. The film is full of laughs and intrigue and tugs at the heartstrings as a relationship forms between a monster and child. How does this movie compare to the pantheon of Pixar greats? And why does it keep getting revisited regularly by Disney executives?
Then, the two discuss the latest offering from Disney Plus, "Monsters at Work." The show serves as a quasi-sequel to the original film that explores Monsters, Inc transition from scream energy to laughter energy. The work-place comedy disguised as a children's show introduces new characters and promises to bring the laughs. How does it compare to the original?
