In our final podcast episode of 2022, Isaac and Will take on the simple yet daunting task of comparing Point Break (1991), an all-time action classic, to its unsuccessful 2015 remake. If you haven’t seen the 2015 Point Break, just know that it’s basically a perfect example of how NOT to do a remake. Huh, who would’ve thought we’d miss Gary Busey this much?
Also in this episode, we play our first ever game of Fact/Off (working title), a new segment that’s similar to The Newlywed Game, except for movie buffs. We’d like to give a special thanks to the segment’s host, D, for joining us. We hope to have him and Fact/Off return, so let us know if you enjoy it.
