This week, David Fowlie of Keeping it Reel returns for a long-overdue look at everyone's favorite film genre: remakes. Yes, we're going out on a limb and applying the "G" word to reboots, re-launches and re-imaginings. But what about re-brands? And how do comic-book adaptations factor into the discussion? Listen in as the guys unravel complicated answers to a deceptively simple question, while also sharing their personal "Top 5 Remakes".*
Also, Ian offers a look at a few of this week's Shout! Factory releases, including the just-reviewed The Last Reef: Cities Beneath the Sea, Wonders of the Arctic, and the 30th anniversary Blu-ray of Transformers: The Movie!

*As mentioned on the podcast, Rotten Tomatoes recently published their list of 50 best remakes--a highly dubious pantheon that includes Tim Burton's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
