S2E2: Spinal Tap The End Continues (2025)

A comeback tour for the ages. Welcome to Lights, Camera, Remake, the podcast constantly on the search for originality, or at least a reason for all the remakes. It's also a podcast where a song about butts may have broken one of the podcasters and the other has strong feelings about brown M&Ms. We continue our look at the mockumentary/rockumentary about 80s rockers Spinal Tap. Almost 40 years after the original came out, director Rob Reiner and the actors reunited to bring back the band… and gain recognition for their creation. Spinal Tap: The End Continues (2025) IMDB Description: Spinal Tap, one of England's loudest bands, is chronicled by film director Marty DiBergi on what proves to be a fateful tour. *** On each episode we look at remakes, sequels and more to answer the age old question “Has Hollywood run out of ideas?” Your Podcast hosts: Bridget LaMonica @BridgetLaMonica Erica Strout @stroutocaster Follow the show on Spotify!

Bonus Episode: Bad Movie, Good Soundtrack

A listener suggestion! We take a look at movies whose soundtrack far surpassed their plot. These are bad movies with good soundtracks. This will surely be a divisive topic. Remember this is just opinion! And we appreciate all movies, big and small, indie and blockbuster, samurai and Stephen King adaptation. Welcome to Lights, Camera, Remake, where we try to determine whether Hollywood has truly run out of ideas. *** On each episode we’ll look at a movie and its remake, or sometimes a movie and its sequel, to determine if Hollywood rehashed it for a reason or for a cash grab.

Episode 26: A Christmas Karen (2022)

Chug the egg nog and harass the homeowner’s association, it’s time to celebrate the holidays with a silly indie film that demands to speak to your manager. Welcome to Lights, Camera, Remake, where we try to determine whether Hollywood has truly run out of ideas. Some of those ideas have been remade literally a hundred times. About 35 and counting if we’re just talking cinematic adaptations. That’s right, we’re covering a Christmas Carol adaption, but this one is a lot saucier and involves a Scrooged-like delivery in sunny Celebration, Florida. A Christmas Karen (2022) IMDB Description: Karen is an entitled middle-aged woman whose demanding nature has alienated her neighbors and family. After a series of instances displaying her privilege and prejudice, she receives an "intervention" by some unconventional spirits. *** On each episode we’ll look at a movie and its remake, or sometimes a movie and its sequel, to determine if Hollywood rehashed it for a reason or for a cash grab.
