20 years ago, Nic Cage hit the gym and delivered himself to audiences an eccentric action hero with the name Cameron Poe. As a parolee boarding a plane to freedom, Poe finds himself surrounded by a collection of the worst criminals in the country. As they take flight, Cyrus the Virus leads the convicts on a takeover of the plane with a yet to be determined destination. As the U.S. Marshals struggle to find them, Poe realizes it's up to him to stop them all if he's ever going to see his wife and daughter again.
Listeners have clamored for us to have a crack at Nicolas Cage's classic, so here we are. Place your seats in their upright positions and prepare for take off, as we're about to Remake Con Air RIGHT!

Remake This Movie RIGHT! is a bi-monthy podcast where we take a classic film that is actively being remade by Hollywood studio execs, and craft our own version for a modern retelling. Does the story need updating? Should characters or motives be tweaked? Do we need more muppets? We take all factors into account, concoct our film, and then offer a Final Pitch to you in movie trailer form. By the end of each episode, we will Remake This Movie RIGHT!
Our show is broken down into three distinct parts:
The Original: We discuss the original film’s impact, some quick trivia bits, what worked the best from the film and therefore must remain in our upcoming remake, and what didn’t work or what needs to be changed for today’s audiences.
The Remake: We put together our movie! What story do we want to tell, how close to the original will it be, who will star, and ultimately who should direct our eventual cinematic masterpiece? Our hosts work together to put together one cohesive movie, but there is one caveat - Each host has one ‘CUT!’ throughout the episode to employ which could completely derail the entire film.
The Final Pitch: This is where we summarize our remake by utilizing the voice talents of voiceover artist Wayne Henderson and present our finished remake to you in movie trailer form!
