Sneakers (1992) — Robert Redford, Pizza, and Paranoia
Description
Robert Redford is gone at 89, so the guys dropped a bonus episode on his paranoid cult classic Sneakers (1992). It’s dad-heist cinema at its peak: pizza debates, dial-up hacking, Sidney Poitier staying calm, and Dan Aykroyd screaming about conspiracies.
Adam, Jeff, and Steve dive into the plot, the legendary cast (Redford, River Phoenix, David Strathairn, Ben Kingsley, Mary McDonnell), and why this 90s thriller still works today. They talk the box office, its endless cable-TV run, and how Sneakers became one of those early DVDs every dad owned next to Jurassic Park and Twister.
Expect VHS tangents, breadstick arguments, VHS vs DVD nostalgia, unhinged 90s pop culture references, and Jeff’s impassioned love for this as one of his true comfort movies. This is Rewind or Dieat its funniest and most chaotic—celebrating Robert Redford’s legacy and one of the greatest paranoid comedies ever made.
