Draws on

What the speakers say they, or a film of theirs, drew on. Each is a speaker's account: “the maker said so” when they report the maker's own words, “the host's read” when the read is theirs.

Father of the Bride (1950): 1 line

  1. lineage (remake) · through Father of the Bride (1991), which they acted in: Father of the Bride ⇒ Father of the Bride (the host's read). The 1991 film remakes the Spencer Tracy and Elizabeth Taylor original, and the duo argue the remake anxiety has faded with time.
    “there is obviously the original with Spencer Tracy and Elizabeth Taylor, but fine.”
    The Rewatchables · ‘Father of the Bride’ With Bill Simmons and Amanda Dobbins · 0:02:04 · Bill Simmons (0.60 sure it was them)

Parenthood (1989): 1 line

  1. verdict (best-Martin-movie rival) · through Father of the Bride (1991), which they acted in: Parenthood ⇒ Father of the Bride (the host's read). Some would pick Parenthood as his best because it tried this type of movie first and spun off into a TV show.
    “Some people might say parenthood actually, because it's the 1st type of movie that tried to do the stuff they did.”
    The Rewatchables · ‘Father of the Bride’ With Bill Simmons and Amanda Dobbins · 1:19:51 · Bill Simmons (0.80 sure it was them)

Drawn on by

What the speakers say drew on them or a film of theirs, marked the same way.

Father of the Bride Part 3 (Netflix Zoom reunion): 1 line

  1. lineage (pandemic sequel) · through Father of the Bride (1991), which they acted in: Father of the Bride ⇒ Father of the Bride Part 3 (Netflix Zoom reunion) (the host's read). The virtual Netflix reunion is called a low point of the pandemic.
    “The virtual Netflix sequel. I think was one of the low points of the pandemic.”
    The Rewatchables · ‘Father of the Bride’ With Bill Simmons and Amanda Dobbins · 0:47:27 · Amanda Dobbins (0.70 sure it was them)

Father of the Bride Part II (1995): 1 line

  1. lineage (sequel) · through Father of the Bride (1991), which they acted in: Father of the Bride ⇒ Father of the Bride Part II (the host's read). Dobbins is okay with Part II because it comments on weddings and pregnancy smartly and she likes the family; it made $76.6M on a $30M budget.
    “I'm okay with Father of the Bride too.”
    The Rewatchables · ‘Father of the Bride’ With Bill Simmons and Amanda Dobbins · 0:46:18 · Amanda Dobbins (0.90 sure it was them)

Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994): 1 line

  1. lineage (genre influence) · through Father of the Bride (1991), which they acted in: Father of the Bride ⇒ Four Weddings and a Funeral (the host's read). Father of the Bride starts the 90s wedding-movie explosion that includes Four Weddings, Wedding Planner and Wedding Singer.
    “This like really starts the 90s explosion of everything from 4 weddings and a funeral to wedding planner and wedding singer and you name it.”
    The Rewatchables · ‘Father of the Bride’ With Bill Simmons and Amanda Dobbins · 1:03:26 · Amanda Dobbins (0.80 sure it was them)
