‘Tropic Thunder’ With Bill Simmons, Chris Ryan, Van Lathan, and Joel Anderson
The Rewatchables crew reunites to dissect Tropic Thunder (2008), a meta-comedy about egotistical actors lost in the jungle while filming a Vietnam war movie. The film, packed with A-list stars like Ben Stiller, Robert Downey Jr., Jack Black, and Tom Cruise in a surprise role, pushed boundaries with its satire of Hollywood, method acting, and Oscar bait — all while featuring Downey’s controversial blackface performance as Australian actor Kirk Lazarus. The hosts reflect on how the film’s edgy humor, once celebrated, now exists in a cultural minefield shaped by social media and shifting norms.

‘Kindergarten Cop’ With Bill Simmons and Kyle Brandt
The Rewatchables gang reunites to revisit Arnold Schwarzenegger’s 1990 action-comedy Kindergarten Cop, a movie so bizarrely packed with child abuse lectures, rectal thermometers, and Arnold yelling 'It’s not a tumor!' that it feels like a fever dream from a bygone era of cinema. It’s a glorious mess that somehow works — mostly because we all just love Arnold too much to care.
