Future #Podcast Idea: "Bambi II"
The current record holder for longest gap between original film and sequel, "Bambi II" was released direct-to-video 64 years after the original film. Would make for quite the discussion on the show!
Director: Brian Pimental
Release: 2006

Future #Podcast Idea: "Million Dollar Mystery"
A wacky comedy that had a real life contest to find a million dollars sponsored by Glad-Lock? It happened, and there's more than enough there to discuss on a "They Remade It Again" episode!
Director: Richard Fleischer
Release: 1987

#Podcast Reading Material: Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus, by Mary Shelley (1818)
We've had many an adaptation of "Frankenstein" (one high profile one last year, in fact!), but many tinker with the source material quite a bit. Best read it yourself to get the full story!

Future #Podcast Idea: "Creepshow 3"
The last vestige of the "Creepshow" franchise (until the show that is) came the third entry, a film that was in production for years since 1992. Stuart and Jacob should cover all these!
Directors: Ana Clavell and James Dudelson
Release: 2007

Only a few years after the first came "Creepshow 2", another anthology this time directed by Michael Gornick, though with a screenplay by George A. Romero. But the film series didn't end there!

When a sequel almost two decades after the first wasn't enough, a third was also shipped directly to store shelves everywhere. Stuart and Jacob would surely have a ball discussing all three of these!

It only tracks that in the burgeoning age of direct-to-DVD legasequels that "Deep Blue Sea" would get that same treatment. But it somehow didn't even stop there! Future "They Remade It" episode?

Future #Podcast Idea: "Deep Blue Sea"
A bad movie for some, a guilty pleasure for others, "Deep Blue Sea" was a turn-of-the-century take on the killer shark movie, and would be interesting for a future retrospection on "They Remade It"!
Director: Renny Harlin
Release: 1999

While neither Stuart nor Jacob have actually seen the movie yet, it would be nice to tackle a live-action remake on the program that isn't explicitly Disney. So maybe an upcoming episode?

#Podcast Reading Material: Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, by Robert Louis Stevenson (1886)
If ever a story had a long tail in the zeitgeist, the concept of Jekyll and Hyde is certainly one. Even "The Nutty Professor", as discussed on the podcast previously!
