  • Georgia’s landscapes are floated, then the speaker explicitly returns to Reynolds.
  • Before full stardom, Bert Reynolds could be taken out halfway through the movie by a broken leg; later he would want Lewis to win the day.

Just One Oscar

Deliverance The Rewatchables

The convincing dead attacker is explicitly floated for Just One Oscar; the response says the possibility was considered. This is a tentative suggestion, not a final award choice.

Roger Ebert's review

Pineapple Express The Rewatchables

Roger Ebert gave three and a half stars, praising a quality drug comedy that overcame familiar male-bonding, sex, scatology, drugs, fighting, guns, and explosions.

  • Ebert’s respect for David Gordon Green helps the panel frame the film as unusually well shot and staged for its material.
  • The car chase’s failed windshield kick is a carefully framed action gag that subverts a familiar trope.

Most Rewatchable Scene

Pineapple Express The Rewatchables

Dale buying and smoking Pineapple Express with Saul wins narrowly over the diner recap, while the 1937 test, high school, phone smashing, cop chase, wounded Red, children buying weed, and warehouse battle remain major candidates.

  • Bill Hader’s black-and-white Item 9 test parodies Reefer Madness and builds a complete stoner vocabulary in minutes.
  • The high-school visit exposes Dale’s inappropriate age gap and supplies the Goldblum impression, “time to suck today’s dick,” and an outsider correctly challenging the relationship.
  • Saul’s apartment scene captures the awkward transition from buying drugs to hanging out, adds 227, red wine, career talk, and the cross joint.
  • Smashing and losing the phones turns a simple anti-tracking plan into escalating incompetence, including the belief it is how authorities found Saddam.
  • The cop chase and foot through the windshield produce the movie’s most iconic action image.
  • Red calmly awaits death beside noodles and blood, discusses reincarnation, then supplies an improvised gun-up montage.
  • The long farm battle is divisive for its hard pivot and graphic violence but preserves funny gun conventions and Gary Cole’s villain.
  • The diner characters rewatch their own adventure aloud, accurately recreating the pleasure of hungover friends rebuilding the previous night.
  • The middle-school dealers’ hostility, fireworks, and adult vocabulary make another favorite scene.

What’s Aged the Best?

Pineapple Express The Rewatchables

Single-outfit continuity, music, McBride and Robinson, marijuana legalization, restrained vomit, Rogen’s career, the diner, immortal Red, fight timeouts, volatile phone calls, and Saul’s Bubby age best.

  • Wearing the same clothes through a chaotic day preserves the adventure’s continuity and familiar dishevelment.
  • Electric Avenue, Bob Marley, and the trailer’s Paper Planes give the comedy unusual musical identity.
  • McBride’s points-per-minute performance announces the persona that leads to Kenny Powers, while Robinson earns near-universal affection.
  • Legalization across most states vindicates the movie’s anti-criminalization argument.
  • Small mouthfuls of vomit are defended as funnier than effects-driven projectile vomiting.
  • Rogen became a versatile actor, producer, marijuana entrepreneur, pottery maker, and architecture enthusiast.
  • Red surviving repeated gunshots and an explosion turns him into a comedy Michael Myers.
  • Calling timeout during a fight works first and then fails when Saul tries it later.
  • Dale and Angie’s calls flip instantly between hate, love, marriage, and regret in a way one host finds accurate to immature relationships.
  • Saul’s grandmother and her borrowed family name make his bizarre personal life specific.
