He is absolutely horribly wrong about Predator not dating well. Movie is a masterpiece.

The Rock is a lowbrow guy movie doused with testosterone. It is only "great" in the unintentional comedy department. As for Connery, he plays Sean Connery. People love Sean Connery. It's why he's the best Bond. But he's mailing in this performance and typecasting is never ever a great performance.

I love your work, you guys are consistently on point and hilarious. However, that being said... WHAAAATTTTT... just heard 'Connery is bad in The Rock'!!! It's one of, if not the greatest, roles in the second half of his career. I worked at a cinema the summer that came out, and me and my friends quoted him all summer. Then years later, got working in film and tv, and that one is a huge favourite among myself and several friends in the art department. We always cited that as one of his best. When he died, it was Last Crusade, Untouchables, Bond and The Rock that made everyone's top Connery performances... I can't believe you said that, haha... only time I think you've all been absolutely 100 percent wong. He's majestic in that movie and doesn't have a bad moment in the whole film, take it back!

Walking through the gunshot is maybe too short a scene for most rewatchable, but man is it epic. Zero flinch. I feel like I would. also have zero flinch if I got shot my in shoulder. Me and Poe are just built different.

Con Air 2020, with some Rewatchables favorites in mind Whichever Hemsworth = Cameron Poe Baby-O = O'Shea Jackson, Jr. Jesse Eisenberg = Vince Larkin Michael Shannon = Cyrus Chad Coleman = Diamond Dog (this could be Michael K. Wiliams if you want, but he isn't big like Rhames) Garland Greene = I don't want to recast this, but MAYBE Daniel Radcliffe? Bruce Willis = Duncan Malloy Tyler, the Creator = Pinball Owen Wilson = Swamp Thing Pablo Schreiber = Billy Bedlam Danny Trejo remains Johnny 23, of course

Two of the nicknames are classic glam-rock album references: Bowie's Diamond Dogs and Lou Reed's Sally Can't Dance. Weird for a movie like this.

I would put Adaptation, Raising Arizona, Bringing Out the Dead and Matchstick Men ahead of this but Con Air is a very enjoyable movie. However, my fav Nic Cage doing Nic Cage-isms, probably The Rock and Face/Off

Yet, in the Rewatchables episode of 'The Rock', Bill says that Sean Connery is the greatest thing, is a total badass, and won the movie. So weird and disingenuous to hear how he flips.

He says inconsistent and incoherent things all the time. The problem is, most of the time his fellow podcasters (most of whom worked or still work for him) so they tend not to disagree with him…
