The Redeemables

On our main episode we covered Netflix action thriller Kate, a movie about an assassin having a very bad night. So the topic for our Top Five is - 'One Bad Night' movies, and it turns out there is a lot of awesome flicks to choose from.Before that BJ hits the fellas with a quiz about movies that use someone's name as the title - and we are once again joined by Official Redeemables Scorekeeper Rod Gunn who scores us in usual arbitrary and brutal fashion in real time!

In this week’s Ep we’re joined by listener and official scoreboard keeper, Rod Gunn, to discuss 2021’s action romp – Kate. We discuss injecting stims, Japanese nightclubs, those footbaths where the little fish clean your feet, neon lighting, Woody Harrelson and heaps more. As always, thanks for listening!

We sure do love love. So much so that we dedicated this week's top five to our favourite romantic on screen couples. Before that tough we have to do a quiz - because we also love games. This time Duff has a rom-com related competition for the lads.

In this week's ep, Duff takes us back into the world of Rom-Com's with 2009's The Proposal or as Duff put it - "when the chick from Speed met Deadpool". We discuss Rom-coms at the box office, wedgetail eagles taking dogs, how to practically remove headphones when undressing, is driving a boat really that hard, power dynamics, male strippers and heaps more. As always, thanks for listening...

This week on the mini we list our Top 5 movies where the protagonist is in a foreign country, not to be mistaken for Top 5 foreign films.Before we do that, we play "guess the movie score" and have some very interesting/embarrassing results.Join us for the ride...

This weeks ep Kenny drags us into the depths of the Netflix back catalogue and introduces us to 2018's The Outsider, otherwise known as "that Jared Leto Yakuza movie". We discuss weird shaped bald heads, Emile Hirsch's natural unlikability, which fingers or toes you'd remove if you had to, recasting Jared Leto and heaps more! As always, thanks for listening...

Last week we did 1999 horror comedy Idle Hands with old mate Leigh as our guest. So we had him back for the mini to celebrate horror comedies with a quiz and then battle it out in a 1999 movie draft.

Pain heals, chicks dig scars, glory lasts forever… but do sports comedies? That is what we discuss after watching The Replacements! Joining us at the desk is Neel, to help usanswer many questions - is Keanu a good actor? Why was Gene Hackman in this? Is the fat guy Hawaiian, Japanese or Chinese? did Jon Favreau think he was in The Waterboy? Is this the most cliché soundtrack in the history of movies?… and many, many more. Thanks for listening!

Kenny asked the boys to do a Top Five Teen Movies - insisting they come from the late 90's and early 2000's, but BJ & Duff went rogue and did their lists with little regard for Kenny's rules. Hear those lists - and Kenny's outrage right after the lads test their knowledge of teen horror flicks in one of the toughest quizzes yet.

This week we explore a vintage teen horror movie that currently has it’s 6th sequel in cinemas – the original Final Destination. We discuss death’s design, teen movies, failed careers, the FBI’s unwillingness to traverse water, emo characters gone wrong and are cable ties appropriate carry-on when flying? As always, thanks for listening!

“Envy the country that has heroes, huh? I say pity the country that needs 'em”… This week is the long awaited re-do of Reign Of Fire after a technical difficulty destroyed the original recording many years ago... We discuss impressive male torsos, sci-fi vs fantasy, the importance of good visual effects, greatest death scene of all time and the electricity of Matthew McConaughey!

Inspired by the battle in the extra terrestrial jungle in Predators we decided to pay homage to one of our favourite settings for film with our Top Five Jungle Movies. Before that though we challenge our guest Drew to a round of The Blockbuster Game, will his brain glitch less than ours? Probably...but who will win?

This week we revisit the Predator universe and watch 2010’sPredators. We’re joined in the studio by special guest, Drew Shaw, as we discuss where this one ranks in the Predator franchise. We also talk big guns, predator homages, Adrien Brody as an action hero, whether Royce is a good name for anaction hero, Walton Goggins before White Lotus and whether this movie would be better if Michael Chiklis was in it. Please join us…

We were so touched by the brotherly love between autistic killer account Ben Affleck and his deadly but damaged brethren John Bernthal that we just had to pay homage to the best brother's bonds in movies.But before that Duff & BJ take on special guest Lachy in a rapid fire quiz that revolves around movie titles that are an occupation.

With The Accountant 2 coming out this week, we thought we’d watch and break down The Accountant! Lachie from the Quiet On Set channel joins us at the desk to discuss Indonesian Fight Schools, 50 cal sniper rifles, Jon Bernthal maybe being the greatest actor of our time, a celebration of neurodivergence, good dads vs bad dads and heaps more. Thanks for listening…

After joining us to dissect Sly & Arnie action flick Escape Plan we just had to have our first ever guest Crag join us for the Minisode. So first he helps us take on undefeated Kenny in a Sylvester Stallone Movie Draft - will he help us finally end this run of draft dominance?Then we each give our Top Five Escapes from movies - and it gets weird - as usual. **Please forgive the audio issues on this one, they may have been caused by internet gremlins or by the challenge of recording Crag whilst he is housed in an illegal offshore floating prison.

This week we review Arnold and Stallone's first ever co-headline movie and in honour of that we invite a heavyweight of our own to join the discussion - Crag Carrick! Join us as we discuss prison guards, a Mr Beast hot take, sextants, 50 Cent, Jim Caviezel's post-Jesus career and heaps more...

You know the moment in a movie where it is revealed that someone made a big mistake and messed with wrong badass? Turns out that exact moment is one of our favourite things in movies - so did our Top Five We Got A Real Badass Here Moments.But before that Duff brought a tough test of movie knowledge for Kenny & BJ to compete in - join us and play along!

The Most Talked About Movie of the Year is One That No One's Actually Seen... except for us. We saw it back then and now we've seen it again. We discuss 2020's The Hunt - the political satire and how the critics didn't "get it", Donald Trump's boycott of this movie, the pigs treatment on set, Glenn Powell, Glenn Howerton, right vs left and heaps more... Thanks for listening!

Let's face it, if you listen to The Redeemables then you probably disagree with the majority of the Academy Award nominees and winners so we made our own awards show celebrating the best films and performances of 2024 and we asked you, the listeners, to vote. This episode we read out all the winners and it's hosted by the best in the business - BJ! Thanks for voting and thanks for listening!
