Pointless Rewind

Podcast episode on Seinfeld Season 2 Episode 2, The Pony Remark.

Podcast episode on The Ex-Girlfriend.

Wow it took me over a year to edit this episode but its finally here...Season 1 episode 5 of Seinfeld: The Stock Tip! We talk about whether George is a worse person than Eric, why Scot is a much better friend to Chandru than Kramer is to Jerry, and how kinda annoying Elaine is in this episode. Also, this episode has by far the worst skit in the history of Pointless Rewind. If you like this, leave us a review or follow us on Itunes, Spotify, Sticher, Google Podcasts, and more!

Check out episode 4 as Pointless Rewind goes through Seinfeld episode by episode! Listen in as we discuss Kramerica Industries' introduction, which of the three of us would have handled Jerry's friend better, the definitive introduction to Elaine's character, Eric's adventures in ordering a lager and receiving a milk glass filled with vodka instead, the lack of side plots in Season 1, and Chandru trashing Eric's apartment in an attempt at saving his life.

Check out the episode 3 of A Pod About Nothing as Pointless Rewind goes through Seinfeld episode by episode! Listen in as we discuss our confusion over what episode number this is, whether Eric is Kramer or George, the perfection that is the Choose scene, and the nuanced differences between cleaning a bathroom barefoot and plunging a toilet barefoot. All of this as we incorporate a half-assed laugh track, more Eric interruptions, and an amazing story of Scot versus a creepy/incompetent thief.

Check out the second episode of A Pod About Nothing as Pointless Rewind goes through Seinfeld episode by episode! Listen to us discuss "The Stakeout" and how its a hilarious introduction to George's obsession with architecture and Art Vandelay, how this is the most normal romantic interest Jerry has in the entire show, and how this episode introduces Elaine in a less than flattering manner. Also you get Scot threatening Eric for interrupting him, Scot not paying attention as we do the intro, and Scot's lack of success in platonic relationships. A very Scot-centric episode as we work really hard to develop the characters we created in the pilot episode of this podcast.

Check us out as Pointless Rewind strays into talking about Seinfeld in our first Pod About Nothing episode! Listen to us discuss the Pilot episode's combination of clunkiness and potential, our being able to relate to all things Jerry and George not knowing what signals a woman is giving, and that maybe the Pilot episode strays a bit too far into being a show about nothing. Also, we find time to discuss how Jerry merely gets annoyed with Kramer for ruining a Mets game for him while Chandru nearly broke up with his now-wife because some random dude ruined a Spurs game for him. All of this while we manage to botch both the intro and outro despite having done this several times before. Then again this might be just us being meta in an attempt to show how unpolished the pilot episode of Seinfeld is?

Check out Episode 15 where we pointlessly rewind through Back to the Future!  Tune in for a beautiful combination of analysis and befuddling remarks as we discuss Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd's amazing chemistry, how Doc's only successful "experiment" to date was setting his clocks back 25 minutes and why Eric thinks the "Pepsi Free" joke only makes sense if its about caffeine (spoiler alert, Eric was wrong).

Check out Episode 14 where we pointlessly rewind through The Thing and overuse "thing" puns. Also, we discuss some of the greatest practical effects ever, some insanely good direction, when Blair became a Blair-Thing, how inexplicable it is that Evan (noted movie expert) was actually introduced to this movie by Anthony (noted guy who is on this podcast and watches all of the movies minutes before the podcast), and whether its more important to bring back the dodo or the saying "gone the way of the dodo". Spoiler alert, its all about the saying. If you enjoy this, make sure to like us and suscribe on ITunes, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts and anywhere else you can find us!

Check out Episode 13 where we pointlessly rewind through Jaws and see how long it takes to become clear that this is Chandru's favorite movie!  Listen as we discuss maybe the finest trio of characters ever, whether the shark gets unfairly bashed for looking fake, why Jaws isn't just a "shark movie" (though Eric keeps arguing this point so he is this close to being kicked off the podcast), and whether talking about Jaws being Chandru's first method of flirting back in elementary school led to any success (it decidedly did not).  If you enjoy this, make sure to like us and suscribe on ITunes, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts and anywhere else you can find us!   Chandru Ravindran  Website: https://pointlessrewind.com  Twitter: @PointlessRewind  Anthony Ryan  Twitter: @xlerated  Instagram: @xleration   Erik Sverdlov Website: https://www.eriksverdlov.com/  Twitter: @ErikSverdlov Instagram: @ErikSverdlov Evan Staats  Website:  https://dinosaureyelidsnj.com/   Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/dinosaureyelids/  

Check out Episode 12 where we pointlessly rewind through 1995's Judge Dredd.  This is a major milestone as this is the first episode that proves that Chandru wasn't full of crap when he claimed this podcast would be about any movies from the group's pasts, not just movies he likes.  But more importantly, its Scot's first episode!  Behold as we discuss Stallone and his gloriously incomprehensible one-liners, an amazing Alan Silvestri score, a less than amazing plot, unnecessary cleavage, terrible CGI that somehow didn't turn Eric off from the movie, and Eric inexplicably claiming that 2012's Dredd could be an episode of The Wire.

Check out Episode 11 where we pointlessly rewind through Die Hard 2!  Listen in as we discuss such weighty topics such as whether Die Hard 2 is an underrated sequel, John McClane's newfound teleportation skills, some incredible and elaborate action scenes, whether or not the skits for this podcast need to make sense, and how Colonel Stewart's nude martial arts convinced one of us to start watching Cobra Kai for some reason.

Check out Episode 10 where we pointlessly rewind through 1998's Rush Hour! Can a podcast about neurotically rewatching movies over and over actually work when the host had only seen the movie once? Should it work?? If you can get past that, then enjoy it as we discuss Jackie Chan's foray into Hollywood, whether Chris Tucker's character is actually likeable, whether a movie like this needs a plot, the awesome chemistry between the leads, and whether Soo Yung deserved a fate more like Harry Ellis from Die Hard.

Check out Episode 9 where we pointlessly rewind through 1988's Die Hard! Join us as we discuss the effectiveness of John McClane, the ruthlessness of Hans Gruber, the incredible pacing of the movie, the theory that Argyle may be caught in an Interstellarish time warp in Nakatomi's garage, and how thankful we are that Al didn't follow up shooting Karl by blasting Argyle away as well.

Happy Halloween! To celebrate, check out our latest episode as we delve into the 1978 classic Halloween! Enjoy as we discuss the terrifying aura of Michael Myers, while also wondering aloud if the movie would have been better off had the killer been Jason's mother. Delve into our thoughts on Donald Pleasance's Dr. Loomis and how he brings a level of sophistication to the movie, all while also just being a "pleasance" to watch. And of course, just hear us rave about this seminal movie and how suspense seems to be an afterthought these days.

Check out Episode 7 where we pointlessly rewind through previous podcast episodes and rank the original Indiana Jones trilogy! Join us as we discuss Indy's unshaven face from Raiders, rubbing shoulders with Mola Ram in high society over cocktails, and whether or not Eric's blood sugar drops perilously low when ranking movies.

Check out Episode 6 where we pointlessly rewind through Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade! Join us as we discuss Indiana Jones' reconciliation with his father, whether this movie would have been better off with the X-rated version where Indiana Jones romances Henry Jones Sr., the uselessness of turning Marcus Brody from a respected mentor figure for Indy into a clown, the incompetence of the Brotherhood of the Crusiform Sword group in this movie, and the pointlessness of having a clue about a penitent man needing to kneel before God when the booby trap also requires rolling past God in order to survive the test.

Check out Episode 5 where we pointlessly rewind through Indiana Jones and The Temple of Doom! Things couldn't be more pointless as we discuss one of the most action-heavy climaxes in cinematic history, whether Short Round would have been better off being called Tall Square, why the Thuggee Cult who has access to guns, swords, and voodoo choose to send one assassin with a rope to kill Indiana Jones, and why Steven Spielberg would choose two decidedly non-Indian individuals who had visited India as his Indian experts when writing this movie.
