This latest podcast is for The Birds, with the duo winging things more than usual. Both flock to the iconic thriller, but Aaron ruffles Jacob's feathers by still calling it Hitchcock's dumbest work.

The Birds - Gateway To Cinema

For the third week of Spooky Season, the duo document their close encounter with Phoenix Forgotten. The found footage film is all alien to Aaron, but Jacob recalls exactly why it didn't light up his world.

This week, Jacob entices Aaron with The Lure. Both agree that 'Polish mermaid horror musical' is a great hook, even when the translation feels a bit fishy.

Jacob and Aaron finally make room for another podcast, one about the making of The Room. It begs the question, who is The Disaster Artist? Director and special guest star Tommy Wiseau, or the podcasters spending half their time pitching an SNL battle royale.

The Oscars Best Picture 2022 - Gateway To Cinema

Reboot Already Underway is talking all the Oscar films all at once to triangulate the top gun of the nominees. Jacob's stuck on Tar and Aaron likes the Fabelmans' shot.

Best Picture 2023 - Reboot Already Underway

This week, Aaron and Jacob put Little Miss Sunshine under the spotlight. Jacob crowns the pageant film a new comfort movie; Aaron's blindsided by misremembering the road trip's final destination.

Apollo 18 - Gateway to Cinema

This week, Jacob illuminates Aaron on Dark Skies, despite his own cloudy memory of the film. They both find some unexpected bright spots in the otherwise drab feature.

Dark Skies - Gateway To Cinema

The Last Broadcast - Gateway to Cinema

As they prepare to move on from Spooky Season, Jacob and Aaron get up to date on We Are Still Here. Their conversation may get a little lost at times, but they refuse to put a sock in it.

We Are Still Here - Gateway to Cinema

Jacob and Aaron are putting this year's Oscar nominees on trial to determine which should be richly rewarded and which should remain poor things. Ken they do it all in less time than the average of the Best Picture nominees? Probably not, but please don't hold that over their heads.

The Good and the Bad of Book Adaptations - Episode 20

This week the group discusses those actors and actresses who have the best working record in Hollywood, which is harder than you'd think. Also, the saga through everyone's top 10 favorite movies continues. Also, I think they talk about The Bye Bye Man. Something like that...

Which Actors/Actresses Have the Best Record? - Episode 35

Now that the Best Picture nominees for the Academy Awards have been announced, the guys at Reboot Already Underway are going to give their spoiler filled reviews for all of the ones that they have seen, starting with La La Land, Jacob's favorite film of 2016.

La La Land - Reboot Already Underway's Best Picture Recap

This week Aaron and Jacob discuss one of the most classic comedies of all time: Blazing Saddles. They also find out that this format doesn't lend itself particularly well to comedies, but they both love the film nonetheless.

Blazing Saddles - Gateway to Cinema (Episode 6)

This week Aaron and Jacob dive into the head trip that is Being John Malkovich. Malkovich Malkovich? Malkovich Malkovich, Malkovich. That will make sense if you've seen the movie...

Being John Malkovich - Gateway to Cinema (Episode 9)

This week the group gathers to discuss the moments in film that make them get all those bumps up and down their arms (colloquially known as Goosebumps).  It's a wacky and wild ride through all types of emotions, so be sure not to miss this very special (read: normal) episode.

Movie Moments That Give You Goosebumps - Episode 71

This week the guys discuss the shocking news that X-Men New Mutants is a horror film and ask what other long running franchises need to mix it up by going for the spooks.

Movie Franchises that Need a Horror Film - Episode 74

This week, the guys make their Oscar predictions, but, for some reason, none of them are banking on The Boss Baby. Aaron talks the best owl-centric film he's ever seen, Jacob has FINALLY witnessed San Junipero (after his hand was forced), and David is Never Gonna Give his Breakfast Club reboot casting Up.

2018 Oscar Predictions - Episode 88

The guys delve into Denis Villeneuve's breathtaking sci-fi sequel, Blade Runner 2049, despite the fact it was snubbed for Best Picture. What else are they going to do? See Darkest Hour? Jacob gets existential about the potential of androids and A.I., but Aaron's still questioning the humanity of Jared Leto.

Blade Runner 2049 - Gateway to Cinema Follow-up

After another year, another competition, and over 100 movies, the guys review all the films of 2018 to pick the best. Jacob finds Paddington 2 unbearably good, David's stuck on Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, and Aaron still believes Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom should, uh, find a way into that conversation.

2018 In FIlm - Episode 120

This week, Aaron and Jacob revive their Mel Brooks dispute with Young Frankenstein. Both do agree that not all its parts are as lively as others, but things get Wilder when Jacob mobs Aaron with his fiery takes.

Young Frankenstein - Gateway To Cinema

The guys emerge from quarantine to enter a world where a pandemic threatening to wipe out all of humanity is exacerbated by virulent racism: Alfonso Cuaron's Children of Men. The two find the sci-fi film holds unfortunate evergreen relevance, but don't despair like Clive Owen! They still find plenty of things to kid around about.

Children Of Men - Gateway To Cinema

The podcast is brought back to Jacob's list this week, as the Lazarus Effect puts him and Aaron through hell. As the stories go, Jesus compels them to call out to their good friend David.

The Lazarus Effect - Gateway To Cinema

In a world littered with remakes, reboots, sequels, prequels, and cinematic universes, three friends gather each week to try to make sense of it all. Join Aaron Hahn, Jacob Lacy, and David Becker as they discuss the latest film releases, their all-time favorites, some of the worst films that they have ever seen, and much more. One may never know exactly what to expect from this podcast for film-lovers, but don’t worry, because there’s a Reboot Already Underway.
