We break down 2000’s The Replacements, a football fever dream where Keanu Reeves plays a haunted QB, Gene Hackman coaches like the world’s ending, and every supporting character is one bad hit from prison or greatness.

We scream about:

• Falco’s emotional boat trauma
• Clifford Franklin’s hands
• The kicker who smokes on the field
• Hackman’s last great yell
• And why this movie secretly rules

Also: a game called “Who’s Got the Ball?”, an illegal ad read from Louis, and possibly too much ranch.

They’re watching you. Through your phone. Through your fridge. Through the turkey sandwich in your shopping bag.

This week on Rewind or Die, the gang goes deep (and extremely off the rails) on 1998’s Enemy of the State—a paranoia-soaked, satellite-scrambled, Cheez-It-powered thriller starring Will Smith, Gene Hackman, and the most dangerous MiniDisc in America.

We cover it ALL: —Ducks in Witness Protection —Gabriel Byrne dying faster than you can say “surveillance subplot” —NSA interns who look like they just left a Mountain Dew LAN party —And Gene Hackman LIVING inside a Faraday cage made of rage and RadioShack cables.

PLUS: A conspiracy snack review, a game called “NSA Intern or ’90s Movie Hacker?”, and a full breakdown of whether you could survive this movie without accidentally Venmoing your coordinates.

Next week: We wrap up Hackman Month with football, chaos, and emotional touchdowns in 2000’s The Replacements.

DON’T. TRUST. THE GOVERNMENT.

aka The One Where We Accidentally Launch Over Silver Surfer Trivia

This week on Rewind or Die, we dive periscope-first into Tony Scott’s Crimson Tide (1995)—a high-stakes submarine thriller starring Denzel Washington, Gene Hackman, and a dog named Snaps who might outrank the entire Navy.

We break down:

• Gene Hackman’s morally complex pizza distribution methods
• Denzel’s command presence and perfect posture
• Silver Surfer trivia that almost starts World War III
• Hans Zimmer’s monk-chant soundtrack that slaps like a Gregorian war hymn
• And the top 3 submarine movies, including a VERY serious defense of Down Periscope

Plus: fake Happy Meal toys, Tarantino’s secret script rewrites, and the dog gets his own action figure.

Stick around for the Enemy of the State preview, the box office breakdown, and Steve trying to convince us that Welcome to Mooseport deserves a Criterion release.

Subscribe now for chaotic deep dives into the movies you remember, kind of, from basic cable—and find out why Snaps the Dog is the hero America needed in 1995.
