Episode 105: Top 10 USA Did it Better Films / Ghost in the Shell

It's always interesting when the hosts of a list-based podcast start to bag out their own lists before even revealing them. Such is the case in this week's Ep as Paul and Wayne acknowledge they may have bitten off more they could chew in finding ten films the US remade better than the original foreign version. And this is all off the back of reviewing the new version of Ghost in the Shell. Is Scarlett Johansson's casting as controversial as the internet would have everyone believe? Are the visuals (and not just Scar Jo's bodysuit) as impressive as the trailers would have most believe? And will anybody give two sh#ts by the end of the film? Tune in to find out, and rest assured that The Soundboard most definitely returns to continue tormenting Wayne ... #PodernFamily promos played this week are for the great Quote Unquote Guilty podcast @QuoteGuilty and our brother podcast in the US, the Epic Film Guys at http://epicfilmguys.podbean.com/ and on Twitter @EpicFilmGuys If you’d like to give Wayne and Paul some feedback or have your lists featured on a future episode, sound off on Twitter @thecountdownpc, on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/thecountdownpc or fire off a good ol' fashioned email to thecountdownpodcast@gmail.com If you don't want to scan the episode looking for a particular film, check out Paul's list at https://letterboxd.com/kaisersoze/list/top-10-us-remakes-of-foreign-films/ and Wayne's lists (when he can be assed updating them) at http://letterboxd.com/waynetangclan/lists/
