With the recent remake of Child's Play we decided to give a shot at a remake of our own and we swing at the fences. We head into the pitch thinking we loved the original far more then is evident... Isn't there a knife of some kind? Enjoyable none the less and with some interesting casting! Hope you enjoy it!

Even tough Big is a perfect movie, it would be nearly impossible to make now. Why you may ask, because of the internet. Now Josh could simply Google search where the fair is going and bing-bang-boom, he’s a kid again. That is just one of the many hurdles that are navigated and we have special guest Doug Bashore to help out along the way.
When Left 4 Dead came out, we were instantly in love! The game is comprised of four separate stories which are split into multiple levels divided by safe houses. The makers of the game, Valve, even went so far as to give each story it’s own movie style poster. It’s hard to believe that the instant classic of Left 4 Dead came out 10 years ago (11/17/08) but even more unbelievable is that it had yet to be given the silver screen treatment it deserves. Well we are looking to set that right with out pitch for a Left 4 Dead movie! ENJOY! *PLEASE NOTE: This episode was recorded very late at night. Andy is aware he referred to Louis as Francis multiple times at the end. Thanks!*
Chris and Andy are joined by Reservoir Geeks contributor Doug Bashore to pound out the details on a respectable sequel to the 80’s classic The Goonies.

RECORDED AT THE RESERVOIR GEEKS WORK WEEKEND 2018
*EPISODE CONTAINS SPOILERS* Chris and Andy went to see Jurassic World: Fallen/Forgotten Kingdom dashed out to the parking lot to get their reaction on digital tape, before they even talked to each other about it. Just like with most audiences, one of them loved it and the other one did not. If you've seen Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom or don't mind spoilers, enjoy this episode!

Doug and Andy enjoyed a Saturday matinee of Super Troopers and ran outside to record their immediate thoughts about the movie in the parking lot! If you've seen Super Troopers 2 or don't mind spoilers, enjoy this episode!
Almost two years ago, April 26th of 2016 to be exact, while recording an episode of Reservoir Geeks the inception of PSRR was born. It came about from a discussion on why a quality film version of Ninja Turtles is so hard to make, Andy claims Super Mario Brothers is impossible to film and the rest is history. Since the discussion was tucked away in an episode of another podcast, we thought it was time to release it on it's own. We hope you enjoy it.
Chris, Doug and Andy went to see Ready Player One. Afterward they recorded this spoiler full mini-episode of Prequel. Sequel. Reboot. Remake. about their likes and dislike in the film. Everything from style, references and how the movie compares to the book.If you've seen Ready Player One or don't mind spoilers, enjoy this episode we recorded in the parking lot of the theaters immediately after enjoying the flick!
Since it came out we have been fans of the original Masters of the Universe and 1987 Cannon Films tried THEIR best. Since then we've been waiting for a true to the original version of MOTU on the big screen. After seeing how David Goyer is planning on ruining He-Man and the gang, we decided to take action! So lift aloft your earbuds and throw them in your ears. HERE IS THE PODCAST!
Sticking with the theme of pitching better versions of the rehashed garbage Hollywood is throwing at the wall we present our remake of Death Wish. With some controversial casting the boys lay out reasons why what initially seems terrible will lead to cinematic gold.
With a film version of the hit videogame Rampage on the horizon we look at what could have been if producers listened to this podcast. Instead it seems they watched San Andreas and decided to do that exact same thing but now with animals instead of fault lines. So if you liked San Andreas and thought you needed more of that... you're a DAMN FOOL. Be smart. Enjoy this episode of PSRR!
What better way to celebrate Christmas than revisiting everybody's favorite neglected child, Kevin McCallister. To celebrate the holiday season Chris and Andy are joined by two guests to work out the story of a Home Alone sequel which is more than anyone did with Home Alone 3. Bust out those chestnuts, light up that fire and hit play on this adult sequel to a family classic!
A game series we have loved since the early 2000's is Hitman and when in 2006 there was news of a Hitman movie, we were excited... Then we saw it. Ugh. Hope was once more raised in 2014 when news of a reboot was swirling and then we saw the trailer for Hitman: Agent 47. Though it wasn't as bad as the 2007 disaster, it still missed the mark (pun intended). With no other option, we are happily pleased to give the PSRR treatment to one of our favorite games, Hitman.
In honor of Halloween we gave a sequel to a series that well deserves one, 28 Days/Week Later.
On episode ten of the Reservoir Geeks podcast we discussed Gerard Butler's movie London Has Fallen and our new found love for Butler himself. So in an unprecedented move we decided to pitch an epic super movie wherein Gerard Butler fights everyone from tons of movies. We hope you enjoy listening to as much as we loved recording this episode!
Rouge robots and a makeup free rocker try to take down Magnum PI in 1984's Runaway. It's time that classic was given the PSRR treatment! At two in the morning, drunk and sleepy, Chris and Andy hammered out the details of a remake. It was the only way to give it the respect it deserved. Replacing Tom Selleck in both actor and voice... In fact, everyone gets dubbed over when Andy discovers he has an untapped impression in his files.
The new Ghostbusters came out and it was wonderful so in honor of it and the original we decided to take a shot at a sequel to Ghostbusters 2. Spoilers: we nailed it!
For the first time Chris and Andy reboot a television show as a movie and decide it's considered a reboot. ALF was a sitcom about a cat hungry alien living with a suburban family. What could go wrong?
Like Sam Beckett in Quantum Leap, Chris and Andy try to set right what once went wrong with TMNT. Their only guide on this journey is Matt Reuber, not a hologram but just as cool!
We love Cloak and Dagger and think it's time it gets the remake pitch it deserves. With an update to technology and the times and an attempt to fill every plot hole, the pitch is a success.
Chris and Andy kick off this new series with their version of a Jurassic Park sequel. An Adventure 65 Million And Eighteen To Twenty Years In The Making.
