"What is each person's definition of what a reboot is, what a reimagine is, and what a piece of shit is.ā -Manny Coelho
Dear God! The boys get into the depths of the reboot craze and try to figure out the differences between reboots and remakes. They try to create some parameters and definitions and put to the ultimate test upcoming & already existing reboots, remakes, and reimagines like the Batman franchise, the new Superman, the Anaconda reboot, Naked Gun, and Starship Troopers,(Oh My!). There's also your classic tangents, hot takes, and nonsense that The Nostalgia Test Podcast is known for and you love.Ā
